Hello from the Commonwealth
« on: July 31, 2008, 01:46:33 PM »
All about me:
I have brown hair that is rapidly turning gray.
Peanut butter and colby jack cheese is a nice marriage of taste and texture.  
I like D&D 4th edition.
I don't like D&D 3rd edition.
if I could find a group that wanted to play 2nd edition D&D I'd burn my 3rd & 4th edition books.
I suffer from the occasional hemoriod.
I let Luke talk me into buying a copy of Savage Worlds even though I'll probably never get my gaming group to play it. I hates you Luke, FOREVER!
Peanut butter on a hot dog ain't too shabby.
I am a recovering cigarette addict. After 23 yrs I've been clean for 18 months. :D
I like Futbol and not Football.
Aussie Rules Football (Footie) is the best spectator sport, ever!
I've been happily married for 19 years.
Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches are comfort food
I have two children, 9 and 15.
My son is a jock AND a fan of RPG's. I couldn't be prouder.
I lurked on the FTB Forums for a year before I made my first post.
Peanut butter and mayonaise sandwiches are good when you're out of pickles.
I like high fantasy games and I'm not so big on real life simulation. Life is too real, I play to escape.
I used to make my living fixing TV's and VCR's, back when a VCR was worth fixing. Now I manage people...Now I hate most people.
Too bad you can't make a living out of eating peanut butter and playing games.

Well, that's two people on that list then.

Greatest?  I disagree.  Top 3?  Easily.  I found myself missing Footie when I got back Stateside.

1. I love Futball too!
2. I love 4e too!
3. I just bought Savage Worlds because of Luke.
4. I love pickles, but hate peanut butter.
This might not be what you think it is.

I'd like to find a group running Savage Worlds so I could get the hang of it well enough to introduce to my group.
Fox Sports dropped Footie broadcasts a couple years ago. Now we get more south american soccer...I hate south american soccer...I'd rather watch german soccer - and I don't like german soccer either.

See, I was having a lingering memory of Pennsylvania as a commonwealth, but I could have sworn there were only 2. Thank you for the clarification.

Having lived in Kentucky, there's nothing commonwealthy about it. :)

I've only been in the far eastern portion of Kentucky  - scary place.

G'day.

I like my round ball game however Australia likes to make things hard when the AFL, A-League and Rugby League all want to use football to describe themselves.

As for AFL, the Irish do a much better job.

I once met a guy from Kentucky. I didn't like him much (seriously). And the only logical assumption is that he is representative of the entire population of said state.

"Tiges"...Richmond, Right?
Most of the games aired here were Brisbane vs. "team of the week"
Nah, I'm a Yank. I'd love to visit Australia someday. Until recently Fox Sports carried Footie. I loved it, couldn't get enough of it. We still get a little Rugby but of course nearly all of it is Union and I prefer League - I really miss the AFL.
