Following the success of Bottle of Smoke’s Tell me about yourself thread (too lazy too link this afternoon), I’ve decided we should try a Tell Me About Someone Else thread.
All you have to do is look at the poster the previous post has nominated and offer some tidbit of trivia or background on that person. Then you nominate someone else and sit back and wait. Let’s see what turns up.
I’ll start with a randomly chosen poster (because I just responded to her): a friend of mine named \*\* AudreyK \*\*
AudreyK likes Barenaked ladies

**purplebear**
The absolute most amazing, sweet, touching, friendly, wonderful poster on this board. Always has a helpful hint or a hug. She’s the best. (Sorry, I couldn’t be very brief with someone like purplebear!)

Clogboy has an interest in cars, and his first name is Jasper. Amazing coincidence, or cunning plan?
