> [@](#): > > **Luna Child** Also known as my well beloved younger (and more sarcastic) sister. (currently her profile was written by me, she’ll probably change it soon.) I know I’m wild about the addition, and I’d love for a few of the board lovely people to say hi to her. I’ll start. _ **Hi there Anna-ban!!!** _ (By the way, the first person to hit on her gets kicked in the shin by me. Just a warning.) ---

**CelticCowboy** I am juuuust fine. I just got home from school for the Thanksgiving break and am looking forward to the rest and good food, though not to the absence of my new SO. And **Luna Child** and I just finished watching Lion in Winter. Good stuff. **BigDaddy** I’m sure she’ll tell you just how much I am not like her in any way. **Scotti** and **Persephone** Thanks for dropping by! ---

Hey **Luna Child** … nice to have you here. You know **Medea’s Child** told me once about this “Thespian Initiation” thing she had to do in high school, and she told me what _other people_ had to do but she never would reveal the details of what _she_ did… (And you thought I forgot about that, didn’t you Kathryn?) ---

So, **Luna Child** , got a few questions for you: 1. What is your name? 2. What is your quest? 3. How do you spell … ::Punha realizes if he spelled it here she wouldn’t need to do any more than type it:: erm, it says in your profile that you’re an anal speller. So spell it:) 4. Y’all in your family all follow the same religion, yes? 5. Could do do me a favor and either poke yer sister in the left side for me or give her a big hug[sub]or both[/sub]? I’ve been wanting to do, erm, both, since like last summer, and I ain’t had the chance yet. Thanks:) 6. This place will take over your life. You’ll find yourself in search of a 24-hour lab and you’ll have 100 posts after a week. Sure, that won’t sound like much [b[then\*\*, but that’s how I started out, and look at me now!:eek: 7. What’s the furthest west/east you’ve ever been? 8. Am I scaring you yet? ---

**punha** , dear boy, not everyone else would download themselves onto the SDMB in a sick and devious plot to control all information coming from Cecil Adams. 😮 Umm. Yeah. Well, all hyperbole aside, while I’m not a lurker, I’ve been around here for close to a year and I don’t have thousands of posts. On the other hand, I nearly danced with joy when I killed a thread the other day. Well, whatever. **Luna** , nice to see you here. I’m sure you’ll enjoy the ability to share knowledge and views with these fine people. ---
