Hello fellow Dopers

Hello my name is Otanx, and I am a Doper (finally).

This is my boring hello post. I have been ghosting on the boards for a long time (a few years). I actually posted a few times when the board was free. I decided that this year for my birthday I would register, and actually participate on the boards.

I am a big compter geek. If there is ever a question in GQ about the header of an IP packet, or on the inter workings of networking I am there. I don’t have many hobbies besides that. Play EQ/EQ2 once in a while. Read alot, and will read almost anything. I also race my pride and joy a 2001 Dodge Ram 3500 w/ Cummins Diesel.

I live in South Korea. I am a PFC in the US Army. Currently stationed at Osan Air Base. My wife is also in the Army and is staioned about an hour bus ride north of me. I have been married for less than a year. I met her online in Everquest(Told you I was a geek). We got married Dec. 22 just before she got sent to Korea. I followed 7 months later.

Not sure what else you would want to know. Any questions? Now that I am registered I am off to post like a motherfuck.

Welcome.

I won’t bother to show you around since you already know the place.

Want some chips?

mmmm, chips thanks.
I don’t have to go through that whole, Doper initiation thing again do I? I still hurt from the first time years ago. I heard Hal took all the sheep anyway. Yep even the “new” guy has got to poke fun at the sheep thread.

Hahaha. I joined the SDMB at the same time as Hal’s sheep thread got posted so that’s the ONLY thing I associate with him. Wonderful, isn’t it? He was one of the first people I learned to recognise here.

Welcome,** Otanx**. You’ll fit right in, I can see. :smiley:

Hmph, knows enough to want to avoid the initiation – yup, clearly one of us.

Welcome!

Welcome!

The Initiation uses goats and squid, not sheep.

He ain’t safe yet.

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HAAAAA!

Welcome Otanx, you wanna take those shoes off before you muck up the floor?

Just have a seat, your waitress will be by in aminute to tell you about today’s specials…

Hello Otanx. Be welcome. Enjoy your stay. :slight_smile:

Hi Otanx! Glad you decided to stick around!

Imagine my pride. :rolleyes:

:wink:

Silly Hal!

Prides are for Lions.
You have no pride.
You have a herd.
Or harem, as the case may or may not be. :smiley:

Actually, female seals come in harems.

Let’s not go there.

No, really, let’s not.

Not before the Holiday Season, obviously.

You now all have a chance to give the punchline to a seal joke.

3…2…1…

Hey, what happened to the initiation goat?


Hal!!!

Hi, Otanx. We’re all having margaritas and bad puns in the other welcome thread if you want to join us.

Yes, Otanx, you’re most welcome to come on over. Bring limes, if you got’em. Or pie.

The Holiday Season? But that’s when all the seals go out clubbing! :: ducks and runs::

:: comes back, brings pie, runs off again ::
:smiley:

Bring yourself over! smooches, and exits running
