Hi, Rocklobster!
Hi, Beau! Hmm...long list of anime! I would say my favorites include Kanon, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Clannad, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Tenchi Muyo, Time of Eve, and almost anything by Miyazaki. I'm not much of a gamer, except for football games like Madden.
Lynna, thanks so much! I've been working hard on it!

What? Read? Does a manga count as a novel? Just kidding
Novelist, my favorite all-time novels are (looks at bookshelf next to computer) The Joy Luck Club (numero uno on the list!), Jurassic Park, Patriot Games, The Pelican Brief, Dream of the Red Chamber, Gone With the Wind, The Awakening, My Antonia, To Kill a Mockingbird and The Once and Future King.
Aquila, don't hate on the Madden!

Aquilla, psshhhh
Hi, Lilac!
Hi, Moment! I haven't read a web comic since Megatokyo, but I quit that one years ago. I'm digging Bakuman and Claymore when it comes to manga. I don't watch much TV these days (besides football), but I do like Castle and Parenthood.

Haha, well, I've posted a couple of times here, or so I thought, but my replies didn't go through. I wanted to test to see if I was still having this problem...

Don't worry about this too much. All new members go through this (it's a filter system to slow down trolls and spambots). Once you start posting more, all your posts will go through with no trouble. ^_^

Is that a dango on as your pic? If so is it from Clannad?

Oh yes, it's a dango! I was looking for some Clannad picture to use as an avatar, and this was the only one I liked.
*hears the Dango song in his head*

I've only seen the first episode but I liked it and I liked Kanon so I thought hey lets watch the rest.
Oh yes, the Dango song. As I said I've seen it once and I still remember it...
Getting used to the forums?

The Dango song ends up playing a big role in the second series...
I am getting used to it a bit. I like the people here - the vibe is definitely different from other anime forums I've been part of in the past. I likez it.

Actually to tell you the truth I joined because it was the only site that said "Christian" in it's forum, well after this I found out about CM but I like it here better, it seems more chill.

I found this site when I first was thinking about blogging and was eager to join in. I've seen the CM site, but I didn't realize it had an active forum.
