As you can see, I’ve just registered. My Dad, WallyM7, suggested that I introduce myself. I’m a student, in Grade 13, and right now I’m off to write a History final. Yes, I’m ready for it. Two more to go and I’m done. University in the fall. I’m looking forward to that. I’ve been lurking for quite a while so I’ve got a pretty good idea of the dos and don’ts. I hope. I have to run. Take care. Amy ---

You know, he just suggested you register here so that by the fall you’ll be addicted. Then he can monitor your personal life through the inevitable mpsims advice thread. 🙂 Seriously, have fun here, you sound like you’ll fit in nicely. ---

At this point, I think you could probably write a pretty decent TV show, entitle it “Life with Wally” and get a decent rating (on Canadian TV anyway.) If Wally has ever mentioned me, feel free to replace the words strange, odd, weird, offbeat, and random with amazingly handsome, absolutely hilarious, a gift to humankind, perfection on earth, and a joy to read and behold. Welcome aboard. We all look forward to your growing post count. ---

Welcome to the neighbourhood, Amy! And by the way, _everything_ your dad says about Coldfire is _true_. I’ll try to keep him in line, but it won’t be easy. 😉 (Just pretend you like Rush and you’ll be fine!) ---

Wow, I see our little MoosieWitch has mastered the vB codes for _italics_ ! Don’t listen to her Amy. She’s a real witch. I know, 'cause I weighed her, and she weighed just as much as a duck. Therefore, she’s made of wood. And we all know what THAT means. Oh, and if THAT doesn’t convince you, she’s also a **Québéquerianoise** or whateverthehelltheycallit 😃 ---
