Not a newb but I need something to keep my post whoring going on;

20 (almost 21; a week and a half left).
Well I'm a male (or at least the last time I checked I was).
I live in the middle of no and where of New York State in a small town of called West Sand Lake. I live near the famous but not so famous city of Albany (you know the place that Henry Hudson stopped sailing up the Hudson River and the famous politician William Corning came from) and the other famous but not so famous city of Troy (where Uncle Sam was from). And no, I don't live in a city. I live in the hills, mountains, and forest of New York State. New York City is a seperate place (that would be the place with all the pretty buildings).

Right now I am a media editor and ingest operator for Time Warner. I mainly work for Capital New 9 in Albany but I also work for News 10 Now in Syracuse, NY1 in New York City, and RNEWS in Rochester. I hope to someday work in film and maybe finish that Cantr thing I was writing.

Gonna be 30 this year, in a couple months.
Married 3 years in May, three boys
Favorite color is clear.

I still lie awake some nights and dream of buying a mined out gravel pit and starting Battlebots back up, so I could get two wheeled actuated lifter with reduntant wedge, hammer mill, and ablative armour made.
Reality was never my strong point.

You must be the biggest poster... Well, actually, duh.

Yet I haven't seen many of your posts... Only in hidden end-forums. :P

I've been here since the beginning of this forum. Most of the others that were here then have bit the dust. So it's like king of the hill except actually king of the forum.

But anyways, I don't post as much as I use to. :wink:

OMG rkl, I didn't know you're so young! It must be about that beard...

Edit: Yeah, and the other stuff...

I'm from Kotka, Finland.

I sonsider myself being in a long-distance relationship with a certain Cantrian... :oops:

Favourite food: Pasta and tuna sauce (preferably containing tomato)

Shaving is stupid. Shave today, you just have to do it again tommorow. Better not to bother.

Yeah, go Schme! :D
I thinks beards look very manly... but my ex bf tried to grow one two summers ago and he was always complaining that it's itchy, and then he gave up and started shaving again. Now what's up with that? (And he has a small jaw, a beard would have been excellent in masquarading that.)

It's only itchy the first few days maybe a week but as soon as it grows in it stops.

Plus, I prefer to itch than shave. It takes a lot less effort. :wink:

Plus you don't have to buy razors.

It can be very itchy, espicially if you never had one before. But once is used to it, doesn't feel it.


I try grow beard all like Khomeini, which are popular in my neighbhourhood now, but it doesn't look good on me.
