Hi everyone! I am Jenn from VA. I hate hot weather, love the snow (grew up in CO) and got my name from friends. My friends tell me I look like a monchichi with my hair cut the way it is. I haven’t figured out yet if it is a compliment or insult. oh, well. Hope to see all of you around. ---

I had no idear we were supposed to introduce ourselves. My name’s Christopher, and I actually am an alcoholic. The name Dante refers to the journey of giving up an addictiion. Pleased to meet all of you! I’ve never come across a more genuine or funny group of people online. I hope I’m allowed to stay for a long, long time. And may I also say I’m sorry for the loss you all suffered recently. I wish I’d had a chance to know Wally. I’ve been spending a great deal of time reading past threads and he seemed like a incredible man. It’s good to know that in an anonymous medium such as this, someone can make a real and personal difference to so many. ---

Howdy, I’m Mike. For the record: –I hate pina coladas –don’t like getting caught in the rain –I’m asleep by 10:00 p.m., so don’t go trying anything at midnight. ---

You all probably know this by now, but, I’m Susan and right here next to me is the cutest li’l black cat in all creation, Minx. We live in NY, not too far north of NYC. I work as a trainer at the phone company while I finish getting my degree (yes, I’m still in school at 31), my aim is to be a Research Librarian. Minx works at sleeping, chasing felt mice about the house, and walking on the keyboard while I try to type. Other than that, we’re a pretty boring couple of kittens =^…^= [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-cant-believe-i-forgot-to-do-this-when-i-first-started-posting-here/22686.md?page=4)
