Who are you, What do you do..
I am sure this has been done before, but I'm a newbie, so thats my excuse for bringing it up again.
Who are you, what do you do, means exaclty just what it asks?
I'm a 24 year old who lives in Canada, grew up in Dallas, TX, I own and run a hotel in Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada, HowardJohnson Inn www.hojofe.com (shameless plug in). I just graduated with my business degree in hospitality, so cheers to all.
Man I hope someone picks up on this thread and it starts to get more responses. Cheers.

Welcome, Zifnab... I mean, Fizban. I just might hit you up for a room come July 11th. Best friend's wedding... they send me info for all these expensive suites and stuff, and I just ask them if there's a Motel 6 or something. Send me a PM if you want me to pass along the info and recommendation to any of those like me who don't have reservations already.
For a more summarized version (not to mention I'm way at the bottom of the other thread), I'm a 27 (come May 14th) year-old father of one living in Chesapeake VA. I'm an electronics tech in the US Navy.

Hi, my name's Annie.....
*Hi Annie*
....and I'm a Watchaholic. I'm a stay at home mom mostly, but I'm also the costumer for a local community theatre. I also act in the shows, taking turns with my husband because of the children. Right now it's my turn, and we're doing Pink Floyd's The Wall. I get to be Mother!
And uh....I just turned 28.

Hi Annie!!!
Why do I suddenly feel like I've just been transported to an AA meeting??
Okay, I've answered this one before, but I always seem to repeat myself so here we go again (short version)... I'm Tracie, 40 (EGADS!! still can't believe that one!). Been married to my childhood sweetheart, Russell for 20 years. We have 9 children ranging between ages 14 years and 5 days...Stephen Isaiah was born this past saturday :D... I'm a stay at home mom and an AIDS Activist (a very vocal one too). We live in Oregon on the top of a mountain, which is really a dorment volcano, so the movie Dante's Peak really gave me the heebie jeebies, but Russ assures me that we aren't going to erupt any time soon. So, I think I'm safe from that, for now anyway.

And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.
~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~
~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~
...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

LOL You have no idea how it looks to read that! Nottingham is this near-legendary place that Robin Hood frequents, and evil sheriffs live. For me, what you say is nearly like saying, "I'm from Camelot."CovenantJr wrote:I live in a small village near Nottingham in the UK

I'm Eric. I live about an hour north of NYC. I work with group homes for developmentally disabled adults. Which, for my organization, almost always means mental retardation to one degree or another.

And very clever on the net he is, too.
I haven't done an intro here before, but I may as well do a line sketch. I'm 52, live in Oregon, earn my living dealing with auto insurance companies. My vocation is book reviewing, and I have a compulsion to understand everything. (Well, maybe that's just the slightest exaggeration.)
