> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by thinksnow \* > **Superdude is a professional stand-up comedian.** I was beginning to wonder, **think**. Yes, it’s true. The ever-lovin’ **Superdude** does stand-up comedy for a living. For almost eight years now. The odd thing is that I don’t go out of my way to show it here on the boards. I’ll give a quip occasionally, but that’s about it. ---

**Slip** is married to this completely wonderful witty woman and has at least one child. I’m sure his wife thinks she has at least two at times. 🙂 He lives on the wrong side of the country for us to play golf regularly so I won’t get much opportunity to have him kick my ass. As if… 🙂 He roots for those godless Maple Leafs. I know, you’re asking why would he root for the Leafs when he could be rooting for the Habs? He’s a hard guy to figure out, one moment he’s making complete sense and then it’s “GO LEAFS!”. **Odie** is the same way, he’s sweet, well liked, hell… we’re twins. But he got that bad chromosome that makes him a Senator’s fan. **Canadian Sue** (who hasn’t been here nearly enough lately) is really as sweet as people get. She’s the neighbour who we met through this board who has become a friend we just can’t live without. **Jarbabyj** thinks I would be the perfect poster if I talked more about hockey. She roots for the Blah Hawks who managed to pull of a win last night. I think that I am pretty well perfect [sub]GO HABS![/sub] Me? Raving Habs fan here. Besides that I am the consort to the wondrous and beautiful Lolagranola (who hates hockey), we have four little Feynnlings such named because Granolings just sounds dumb. Lola is as smart as she is pretty, she’s working towards a degree in physics. Despite her disdain for sports I think I’ll keep her. I work in Rehab and sometimes think I should be IN rehab due to my obsessive compulsive nature. At least I understand the people I work with. My career ambition is to take over Canada and institute a four day work week. ---

Well. everyone’s been so open, I guess I should tell you a little about me. I married my high school sweetheart. We’ve been married for seven years and have a seven year old daughter (don’t ask ) and a four year old son who never stops talking. I work for the Toronto Police Department and I’m back in uniform after a brief stint in plainclothes with the pawn shop detail. I’m on vacation and return to work on the 13th. Night watch. I hate that fecking shift. We didn’t go anywhere this year because my wife spends like a drunken sailor. Groceries, shoes for the kids, mortgage payments, she doesn’t care. She even blows money on gas for the car. Oh, yeah. Almost forgot: **GO LEAFS!** ---

I haven’t been posting with much regularity lately, but I have gleaned the following tidbits that haven’t been mentioned yet. **Ukelele Ike** was the editor for the mystery novel _The Bottoms_, which won this year’s prestegious Edgar award for best Mystery Novel. He is also witty and urbane to boot. **Eve** is a noted published author, having penned several biographies of early Hollywodd stars. She is the hands down expert on old movie personalities. She is also witty and urbane, and foxy to boot (not that Ike isn’t foxy, I’m sure, in his own way). **jarbaby** has a pathological hatred of Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers. We loves her anyways, though. I mean, for a Bears fan and all. **Jack Batty** is your man if you want to know the best way to combine the various Hamburger Helper flavors. He also plays a mean Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater on the Playstation. **Manservant Hecubus** is a habitual name-changer. He is not to be trusted under any of his guises. Which is too bad, because he is quite funny and seems like a good egg. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Montfort \* > **Anniz and I were married on 23 September.** How did I miss that? I realize you don’t know who the heck I am, but I’ve been mostly lurking here for…well, for a while now. I remember when you were just about to go visit Anniz and how sweet you both were. Congratulations! I read the board regularly, but I actually post something a lot less often than I _intend_ to post. I suppose I’m a bit overawed by all the witty, intelligent people here. ---

**Uncle Beer** is my older brother, yes he tried to “moderate” me even in our younger years. (call your mother:) ) I live near **Milosarian**. **Scylla** is a stock broker kind of guy, and great author of Sheep fiction. I am a money lender with 4 kids, 2 rabbits, 1 dog, and 1 cat. I am a newbie to the boards but think this is a really great group, and Mrs. Kamikazee is soon to be addicted to the boards as well. ---

Hey **Slip** , I also did military intelligence work while in the Air Force, but I don’t think many people believe that. I was a Defensive Command, Control, and Communications CounterMeasures Specialist (DC3CM for short), stationed at Brooks AFB in San Antonio, TX. One day I’m just going to have to scan and post my DD-214 (military paperwork given after you go back to civilian life) to prove it. ---

I am a toxic waste removal specialist. I handle hostage negotiations. I am a finacial wizard. I can survive for weeks on end on cat naps. I can survive weeks on end trapped in a single building under strains of torture than would send even James Bond to the loony bin. Yes. You have guessed it correctly… . . . . . . . . . I am the mother of two small children. Teletubbies bounce off my chest! Bwa ha ha ha ha ha! ---

I’m an expat Canadian living in Washington, DC. I work for an often disliked trade association that works with lobbyists on Capitol Hill. Although I love them dearly, I am still reluctant to think about the Senators due to their humiliating performance in the playoffs last year. I served 4 years in the Cdn. Armed Forces. Infantry, grunt, groundpounder, what have you. I live in a nasty, overpriced apartment with my lovely wife (who I met through a pen-pal site) and our mentally unstable cat with a stomach condition. I miss my funny money. And I love the new $10 bill. ---

**Ogre** is a freshwater biologist who, for some unknown reason, desparately wants to work in Canada. **tisiphone** is computer chick extraordinaire for nasty ol’ phone company for Canada’s northern territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut). I may have had business dealings with her. **MindWeb** (who mostly lurks) is my best friend in the entire world. **Cartooniverse** is a freelance SteadiCam operator and EMT. And an all around great guy and wonderful father to his two children. **RickJay** is yet another of those turncoats (;)) - A Canadian living in the USA. **Angkins** works for the Evil Empire, Tim Horton’s. **Max Torque** is a law student living in Texas. And my secret lover. **matt\_mcl** ran for Parliament last year, NDP. He is also ‘the guy’ to ask anything about the metro. He also says “shibby” a lot, solely to confuse me. ---

Military intelligence, indeed. \*\* Actually, no. Command, Control and Communications is often abbreviated as C3, since those 3 things are often mentioned together. It’s sort of an anagram in an anagram thing. ---
