I just landed here from some shitty board in Daytona Beach (the News Journal) [http://www.news-journalonline.com/cgi-bin/forum/Ultimate.pl](http://www.news-journalonline.com/cgi-bin/forum/Ultimate.pl) . Now I am a festering boil on the Straight Dope Message Board. Can you tell me…is that an improvement. To introduce mysef… I like to stay up late, wreck havoc in the hearts room on [games.com](http://games.com), scuba dive and just gererally stick my nose where it doesn’t belong. I thought that since I was so warped and screwed up, I would find some friends here (think I have already… 🙂 So, I’m off to take a shower. “My two schoolfellows.

Let’s see. Uses correct spelling (excepting occasional typos), grammer and capitalization? Check. Seems reasonably intelligent? Check. Warped sense of humor? Check. Welcome to the boards! Read the forum descriptions, pay attention to the mods, send Lynn and TubaDiva chocolate occasionally, and have fun!!! ---

mancunian Member Registered: Jul 2001 Posts: 137 Hello. Why’s you called Parisx then, huh? Mancunian, That’s a good question. Actually, It was supposed to be “Paris” but turns out everytime I tried to register it as a username anywhere it was taken, so I added the “X”. ---

Yep… Daytona is a cool place to live sometimes. The only reason I can think of not liking it (aside for common reasons everyone gets boarded in their own city), It’s so damm far offshore to find a good scuba diving site. Got some great wrecks and deep reefs, but no real shallow stuff. Have to go to the keys for that… (love the Keys). ---
