We’ve played this before, but it’s been a while and I thought it might be time for another round. The ‘rules’ are simple. Someone posts to explain what they know about the person before them. I guess that means I’m first up since I started the thread. So, who knows what about me? ---

Hal Briston: Has an adorable daughter, about 3-4 years old. Gets teased a lot about having relations with sheep, due to a failure to log out of a “public” computer some years ago. Offhand, that’s all I remember without searching. ---

Um… Don’t know much about **Inner Stickler** , but lets see what I recall… Posts a lot in threads, but doesn’t start them much. I’ve seen his/her replies a lot, but can’t recall one s/he started. S/he doesn’t hang out in just one forum, I’ve seen posts in many different areas. Unfortunately, that’s about it… Recognize the name, but not much else. ---

I’m pretty sure **Hirka T’Bawa** is a medical professional or just knows WAY too much about drugs. Oh, and Hirka would be a pretty good Emperor of Earth.
