Newbies! Introduce Yourselves!

WHERE ARE YOU, NEW PEOPLE! Also - tell us your favorite food, favorite piece of clothing, and most hated celebrity.

i'm over the average age here by a good chunk (over 30 will do you), i am recently singled and a little sad about that. i am also v glad to find people who at least know what i'm talking about.

I actually find KoC pub to be OK, and a good central point to meet me friends. i gather it's seen as falling on bad times. ta, again to DG for saying hi at said pub -- i look fwd to seeing IL*ers again IRL.

Wuv, alan.

PS party hard

Favourite food: the last really good thing I had was cracked roasted potatoes with cumin seeds and feta crumbled over. Favourite item of clothing: cloche hat, stripey mittens.

So, hello, and thank you David for the welcoming committee.

Me Brian. Me 29. Me almost 30 -- cum December 6.

I used to be now FT editor Ned Raggett's roommate, until I moved here to Seattle in February 2001. Like Ned, I was a college radio DJ at KUCI in Orange County for several years. Occupation: video game programmer. Favorite bands of the moment: Pinback, Hochenkeit, Andrew WK (ducks), Amon Duul II, Sientific American...

Side interests: Making music... indie/droney stuff and electronic stuff. Also DJing all sorts of dance music.. hip hop/experimental/weirder techy house/80s/whatevah

No personal home page... but here's a recent mix CD I made, as well as a few electronic tracks I did for some tributes. And here's what I look like... (..and just so other IL*'ers won't give me grief about it. Yes... the goatee is now gone.)

I should have done this a long time ago. Sorry.

Not sure if that's true, Ellie... Well, I think we established by science that the average age was 27, so you're not far off anyway.

Hello, anyway. I like what you've posted so far. But you seem to be misinformed about the meaning of prevaricate. It doesn't mean to waste time or procrastinate, y'know. Everyone seems to think it does though, so maybe dictionaries will start saying it does too.

(sorry Nick - I bet you thought this sordid episode was in the past)

Actually you're right, technically I meant procrastinate, but in a sneaky way I can have prevaricate too, as in 'quibbling' or 'equivocating'. I sit here at the desk and i _mean_ to finish chapter 5, and then I think, just a little look at the interweb won't hurt, and my better self looks disapproving, and so it goes on. See, I am evading or quibbling with what I know to be the right thing to do, and I do that by procrastinating. I am, in a very real sense, only cheating myself.

PERVERT. This is a sign of appreciation. Welcome! And to all new people I haven't said hi to yet.

Yes, definitely :)

I R got homepage which can be worked out from my email address which has secret hidden cthulucam for benefit of all HP Lovecraft types.

Great Caeser's Ghost!

Eh? Wait, what band are you in, or are you solo?

As you may have ascertained I am from Dunedin and am trying to infiltrate the art and music scene for want of something better to do. I am a sort of one person entertainment committee guaranteed to lower the tone of any conversation & provide cheap amusement. It makes a refreshing change from the Philosophy and English I study at university. There are far too many intellectual wankers around there, it gets boring.

Right now I would really like to have some pancakes, its nearly four and I have not had breakfast. There is a strawpeople remix playing in the room I am in so I dont know if I'll be able to keep it down though.

Huge helpings of Shalom to you all

My name is Solrac and I intend to lurk around for a long time.
Because that's what I do.

hi flopson

There seem to be a number of threads being revived recently after an eight or nine year gap. It gives me the willies, a bit, when I see my old posts after that length of time.

Hello.
