Hi there, I was browsing and came across this site. Even though I am a part-time author. I am not here to promote anything!
Just wanted to say Hi and introduce myself. I am a professional musician, living in New York. I like to write, read and watch sci-fi.
Dune is by far my favorite novel and I suppose I will always be a huge Star Wars fan.
I hope to get to know you all! Thanks for having me!
I would suggest you start posting more than just a greeting with your personal website in your sig line, as you coincidentally joined at exactly the same time that some spammer jackass named Eduardo joined (who will be banned very soon, I have no doubt). Just making sure you're not the same guy.

We like to poke at the FNGs around here, call it like a welcome/initiation thing. Years ago it was a little more er... medieval. You're lucky, it's like a renaissance era now.
Oh ya, might be going to go buy Civ5 today.

Computer games have pulled the fangs from poor Da_bang80 and made him soft.
Not to worry, Will- eventually we'll crush your spirit in some thread about something you really care about...like Star Wars, for example!

Soft? pfft. I just spent the last couple hours destroying America...
Mellow would be more like it, same way I play Civ. No problem making nice like, but piss me off and I'll stomp you.
Civ 5's not bad, steam's a pain no surprise there, some bugs so wait for a patch before picking it up.
Oh well, China's is in a good spot, I'll see if Russia wants to ally against them...

Don't worry...I survived the ritual initiation, and have been hanging around here like a cockroach ever since. Welcome aboard.
