I'm guessing it wasn't Thatcher then.
Delurking 1: Because we don't always check our e-mail.
Well, Kevin's is a tough post [EDIT: apparently omnis followed it for me. thanks!] to follow, but I figured in reading the last few pages that I could do a public service and post the first 20 or so members of b.org:
1) Admin 2) ita 3) Lori 4) meara 5) Anne W. 6) Dana, as previously mentioned 7) Theodosia 8) Jesse 9) Ellen S. 10) Angus G 11) Maggie B 12) (blank profile? any long-timers or stompies know what's up with that?) 13) PMM 14) Elena 15) Jen 16) Laura 17) Miracleman 18) Beverly 19) msbelle 20) Jessica 21) joe boucher
Oh, and I'm 1794. whoo.
I just went to the Buffista map to ask something entirely different. And than I saw something very interesting.
We have a Syrian Buffista.
I hope he/she are still around, because I'm very excited by this information (a Buffista living so close to me, in a place I'm dying to visit one day (not in the actual sense of the word, since you know, it can be done), and in one of the "enemy" countries (I defy your definition to enemy country, my government)).
So, if it's true, I'd like to ask said Buffista to introduce himself/herself.
There's so much I want to know. I grandfather's family stayed in Beirut for a few good years before WWII, and I know they traveled around - got the photographs and all. So I'd love to hear more.
(I'm 1975.)
Hello, I'm Miracleman.
I'm not an evil genius, but I play one online.
Ha! That's a lie. I'm an evil genius. I'd've taken over the world by now, but I'm lazy and my wife makes me do chores around the house that eat up valuable world-domination time.
Usually at least once in any conversation I'm involved in someone will ask me how my transporter research is going. This is a kind of a joke. I can't do any serious transporter technology research because these b.org bastards, for all their whining and pleading, never pony up any greenbacks to aid in this research. Test monkeys ain't cheap, people!
That, and the chores thing.
I like comic books, walks on the beach, sci-fi/fantasy movies and television, pina coladas, armies of cyborg zombies and fresh rhubarb pie.
Actually, the beach bores me and I can't stand pina coladas. The pie's okay, though.
I'm married to Aims, aka The Empress and we have a nearly five-year-old daughter whom I am grooming to be a ninja. Possibly with mental powers to make your head explode or think bad thoughts about your neighbors. So far, we've gotten as far as killing very small fish with her mind.
Well, actually, she just stunned them.
Actually, we're not positive she stunned them; fish look stupid and stunned all the time. So who knows? But we have hopes.
I cannot be brought to take anything 100% seriously.
Approximately bi-annually I will post something to my blog "You'll All Pay", found at www.youllallpay.com
Um.
Goodnight, folks.
I can never remember my number, but i think i'm 1162. you've definitely been here longer than me, Scrappy. that's just...weird.
Did you create a new account on one of your name changes, or am I making that up?
Scrappy I was reading old bureau (to check my vague recollection of when people registered) and you were posting there under "scrappy." That would have changed to the uppercase if you had the same account you have now, and the "scrappy" account should have been under 600 in any case.
That explains it. Thanks, peeps with better memories than me. So from now on, anyone checking my number pretend it's, like, 14.
Maybe you're the mysterious #12.
I think I'm 20-something. ETA: 29.
I'm user id 33. I have this habit of living in places with Street numbers that are mutiples of 11. I've done 22, 110, 11 itself, 55 and here I'm 33. And now, on BoardGameGeek, I've just received an invite to game 33 of Battlestar Galactica.
(My current address breaks that pattern. Now I've married a Chinese woman, we live at Number 8.)
Hello, all! I'm ChiKat and I started lurking back in TT days. I delurked then, but don't remember exactly when. Due to various work/school issues, I've fluctuated between regular posting and lurking and then had the Dark Days of not being able to do either. I now have access at work (shh!) and more plan periods, so I've been around about bit more this year and plan to continue it.
My name comes from TT days. I defied their rules and never registered under my real name. I'm a rebel. I'm also a Kathy from Chicago, hence the Chi (for Chicago) Kat (for Kathy). Pronounced "shy cat" for those who always wondered. And, I don't even live in Chicago anymore. Go figure. I am close, however, in a western 'burb about 35 miles away.
I'm single, live with my cat (black). I'm a teacher, but that's a fairly recent career change. I used to work in marketing. I love teaching and know I absolutely made the right decision. I teach middle school drama, speech, and video production, so I get to be the fun teacher. Which I love. I also love typing in fragments. And Pooh Case.
B.org has seen me through career changes, break-ups, kitty adoption, moves, cancer, good days, and horrible days. There were some days b.org was the only good part.
To my RL friends, y'all are "my Buffy friends." To others, you're just "my friends."
Cilantro: Yes
Olives: No. Don't like the texture.
Muffaletta: No. See above re: olives.
Serial Comma: Yes.
And, it seems I'm #39.
