Getting to know you...

[mrtristan]

I'm 24, married, and planning on making some babies soon.

My first name is Paul.

I live in Honolulu, HI. The weather's been pretty bad, recently - Not exactly Hawaii-ish.

I work for our family business, making ukuleles.

Go ahead and share some things about yourself, if you feel comfortable doing so.

Nice to meet you all.

hi...

my name is FBI Agent

i'm currently working in the computer crimes division of the FBI

i live anywhere and everywhere

[mrtristan]

Hmm. I never thought of that.

Anyway, don't post anything, if you don't feel comfortable with it. I just thought that this might be a good way to get to know you guys better.

I, robot.
Honolulu eh? Damn... I envy you. I might be going to Oahu next year for a couple of weeks or so, but not totally sure as it's not all sorted out yet. One thing I will be taking is my surfboard; just hope those sons of bitches baggage handlers dont break it en route. It has always been one place that I have wanted to go more than anywhere else, Fuji, the Galapagos Islands and Australia ranking next in line. So, do you surf at all? (It would be a crime if you didn't =) I don't know of any other surfers on the forum. I live in the UK, weather at the moment is hot and sunny, surf about 4ft and clean with the swell predicted to get bigger over the next few days... That means I wont be getting much work done.

Anyways, I am 21 and have a girlfreind (24), who I have been with for the last 6 years. No plans for babies yet, but we like to practice a lot.

Nice job MrTRISTAN,

My name is ED I'm 33.Want me to spell it for you E...D...
I'm from the BOSTON, MA area
1 wife
1 and only son (thanks to cancer)

I've had a shitty last couple of years. Got Cancer in Sept 2000 Chemotherapy didn't work, then I went for a stem cell transplant It WORKED!
After trasplant you can't go into any public places for 100 days. my doctor let me off my restrictions earlier but on the 100th day after tranplant. I got into a jetski accident throttle locked up and stop button was broken and then a crash.I got some new skis and was trying to sell this one.now I'm temporarily disabled 2 more surgeries and hopefully back to normal except for all the scars.

So what do you do with all this time on your hands Ed?
Glad you asked I built a computer and now I'm learning how to make vcds
As for jet sking I'm back on and riding but on a sit down POLARIS 780.

It's nice to meet people that have the same intrests?

Im 19 and new to these here forums... go to college up in Bellingham WA, drink beer, oogle hot chicks, play sports, and learn how to make vcds... i used to think DivX was the shizzy but after I found out how cool vcds and xvcds and svcds were, I was converted to vcd-ism...

d4ni3l - I can't swim, so I don't surf. I hardly go to the beach. I think there's some kind of special hell, for people like me. :) My wife and I got into snorkeling for a bit, but I've been too busy with work to do much recreation.

Ed - Sorry to hear about the bad string of events.

I'm 24, divorced, and single.

I don't have any children, and am not planning on anytime soon.

My first name is Thomas (and you thought it was Marcus, didn't ya?)

I work full-time in data entry, for now, until the company lays everyone off - that's very usual in this area.

I live with my cat (He prefers to think of me as the servent that keeps leaving. If other servents would take care of him, he would fire me.).

I live in Seattle, WA. The weather usually sucks here, but that's okay, I'm not much of a sun person anyway. (What is that big ball of fire in the sky?)

[tgpo]

I'm soon to be 19.
I live in SC, USA.
I goto USCA where I am majoring in nothing right now.
I am a huge Mac fan, but I had never touched a Mac before one year ago when I got mine.
I've been dating my girl now for two years.
I have a Ford POS car.
I work at USCA and local Publix store.

[Tommy]

Also live in Honolulu, Hawaii. I agree that weather has been bad lately but its cleared and today is a normal sunny day. 8)

I stick to the places that I can touch bottom. If I fell off of a boat without a mask and fins, I would be toast.

ok let me get this right. you snorkel, but you cant swim.

*is probably the youngest on this board*

I turned 16 in Augest, live in Indiana USA, going to be a junior next school year. I drive a white Buick. Started making VCD's last June (with the help of this site), started making SVCD's with dvd2svcd in September. I probably know more about computers then anyone in my school.

I play Baseball and Football. I workout twice a day, 6 days a week. I have a 9.0/12.0 GPA

Next year I am taking MCSE through my school (free). I'll be taking a few of the MCSE tests next summer, plan to pass all 7, then in 3 or 4 years go to Purdue and major in IT/computer networking.

My favorite music group is Metallica. I play N64, DC, and PSX. I have one "best friend" and some other "regular friends". My best friend and I have been friends since we were 5 and do things like-- shoot fireworks at animals, ride and ramp 4 wheelers, paintball, I'm teaching him to make svcds, look up porn.

the last girlfriend I had was when I was 11.

there's so much more...

[devinemi83]

I live in Pennsylvania.


I am currently home schooled.

This summer I will be training in visual basic 6 through self study courses. I am going to try my hand at MCSD this fall. Hopefully from there I will be able to go right from high school to an entry level programming job. A few places in my city hire young programmers, so I'll give them a shot.

My hobbies are, computers(duh), programming, video-audio editing, movies. I am currently designing a VB gnutella client. I am also learning how to use IRC( I can connect just cant figure out what to do after that) to get movies.
