Hey all,

I just helped one of my closest friends register today - Walleo. A while back, after hearing me rant and rave about it, he read Enders Game. After hearing me rant and rave about the Shadow series, he started that (I believe he has SotG left). And so now, after hearing me rant and rave about beautiful Hatrack, he's registered, and I'm hoping to get him addicted to this as well.

(I've always wanted to do an intro thread! [Party]

Fresh fish!

Haha, kidding. Welcome to Hatrack!

*bump* You here yet Walleo?

Posted by Jon Boy (Member # 4284) on :

Nice imaginary friend you've got there, Strangelove. [Wink]

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

When is your other friend, Hubert Cumberdale, going to be signing up?

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

But seriously, welcome to Hatrack, Walleo! Hope you like the place.

Edit: doh. I guess I ought to read the posts by jonboy and Noemon before I post.

$5 says Walleo is Strangelove's imaginary friend.

Walleo, I'd like you to meet Jim. He's a green penguin. He works for Satan, as a receptionist, during the off season.

Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :

[Grumble]

He's got a weird work schedule, ok?

[Razz]

(He really does exist ...)

Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :

We know he does. But you mustn't let it go to far.

Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :

Ok. Slight mixup with the password, but we cleared that up and now .... Introducing ... Walleo!

(I'm on his computer and he's standing right next to me, so now he's going to post. So there all you doubters.

Walleo, I don't mean to be rude. But life is a lot easier with these:

It's called an apostrophe.

Hi Walleo. You don't look a thing like the Doctor. At least your post doesn't.

So, what does a Utilities Operator do? And what is a "Deltona"?

Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :

Haha. "Utilities Operator" was meant to be deliberately vague. I'll let him elaborate.

Deltona is the city he's from. It's about half an hour from where I live. You're probably familiar with Daytona Beach ... Bike Week, Daytona 500, Spring Break ... well, the county Daytona Beach is in is Volusia County, and Deltona is the largest city in Volusia County. About 90,000 people I think. It's one freakin huge suburb. Absolutely nothing at all to do. It's pretty sad.

Anyways, yeah .... For the record, I just beat him 10-0 in a quick game of Halo 2. [Evil]

Mooossttt likely. I'm not very good. I don't really play all that often, though I have been playing more lately. But I bet I know someone who can beat you [Wink]

Welcome, Walleo!

<swats SteveRogers> You're supposed to let him have one post as honeymoon before you start ragging on him about his punctuation. Now he might never come back!

Pfft. A whole day even!
