I've been around for a bit now and post sporadically so I figured I should formally say hi to everyone.

I'm not from CS. In fact, never even been there! I came here based on a friend's recommendation. I'll allow my friend to claim responsibility should he/she choose to own up to it. :)

A bit about me. My passport says I am a US citizen. I have a slightly unusual background that includes living outside of the US quite a bit, since early childhood. No, not military or missionaries.

I like well thought out arguments, so that is what I try to provide here. I can be a bit of know-it-all. But will own up to it if you prove me wrong.

Now, for my deep dark secret...*sigh* I am a licensed attorney in the State of California. But I swear, I'm not an evil greedy attorney. (My bank account can attest to that! :D)

My favorite color is green. I love dogs, long walks on the beach and curling up to watch a good action flick. :P

That was a close one! I was just about to start a thread called "Licensed attorneys in the State of California" in the "Things I Hate" forum. ;)

Just kidding. Some of my closest friends are lawyers. I'm not sure what that says about me.... :D

You have my deepest sympathies. Maybe you could try some counseling...

Guess I'll have to edit some of those comments I made about lawyers from California, though... :D j/k

Nice to see new people coming in! Welcome to the boards! :)

Holy moley, my late night dyslexia has led me to misspell dog as god...

please forgive me, you benevolent dog loving attorney you!

Also, I did see that movie and it was sweet... not better or worse than the original... it's different... and therefore, as sequels go: freaking awesome! :D

not as bad as a Sarah Palin endorsement... not that that's saying much.

Looking forward to watching the movie.

And I read that as dog! Yay for special reading skills!
