A Break for the Meet the Users Series

Gonna have to wait a bit longer, BigPPup.

That's cool Beast, go for the A+!

At least I got mine in before the hiatus :).

It's cool, man. The longer you take, the more we wanna see outta of the other users who haven't been interviewed yet. ;)

I took French in Middle School, and Spanish in my freshman year. I don't know why I decided to stick with French in my Junior and Senior year instead of Spanish. I guess it was because I kept hearing things about the Spanish teacher and how she kills people's GPAs. I hope during college, I can become trilingual. (English, Arabic, French)

You've already covered everyone we care about anyway. =)

No worries Beast, I shall look forward to the series' return.

I took French and German, and during the Mock Oral for French two years ago, I started to talk about boring lessons, and I said "langweilig." Which you may know is German for boring, not French for boring. To compound the misery, I didn't know what the French equivalent was, so I had to say something else entirely. I only went down that line because I thought I knew the word for boring... :(

Yeah, c'mon Beast, the old users need some love. Does seniority mean nothing around here? I just dug up my original email from Dan (took it out of the frame :) ) and here's what it said (sent on March 14th, 2006 and I joined that day):

Hi Rob:

I just noticed your article on SportsColumn.com.

My friends and I started a site similar to SportsColumn last week -- but better. Users actually vote for the best stories. Stories are published on all relevant pages -- the front page, yes, but also the league's page, the team's page, and the player's page. Anyone can write. You can make your own blog. We have stats loaded for every NBA and MLB player, and a lot of NFL players, through last year. We are also building an encyclopedia. And you can even write _news_ stories.

Oh, and we have over 125 registered users. Not bad for a site that's officially a week old! You'll certainly get more than the few comments you got over at SportsColumn.

The site is ArmchairGM.com. I highly suggest you click the "first time?" button -- that brings you to our tour. Actually, just go to http://armch...rsttime.html -- that's the direct link. (The "next" buttons at the top are broken, so use the ones at the bottom.)

Feel free to cross-publish your SportsColumn article with us. And write for us whenever you'd like! If you have any questions, let me know. I'm always around to help.

Yours,

Dan

Yea I'm with you on the finals and papers....I'm finally done
