East Coast Aztec

The Official Introduce Yourself Thread 2014

Recommended Posts

Name: son of a gun

Hometown: Laramie, Wy

University and Degree: Current student right now.

Teams: Wyoming, MWC teams to a lessser extant, NFL in general (no one team really).

Interests: College sports (obviously, or I and most others would not be here), reading (usually fantasy series), video games (NCAA Football series, Halo series, and a few others), movies, and "riffing" on bad movies (look up MST3K or RiffTrax for reference).

Favorite Activities: Similar to Interests really.

Dislikes: Surgeries (5 knee surgeries, 2 sinus surgeries and 1 ankle surgery all since about 2005), the sheep, BYU, and extremists of most types.

Current Playlist: Think music from the 1950s up until the early 90s, and a few smatterings of things from the 90s up until present day, but mostly the 50s to early 90s stuff. Prior to that is fine, but not my favorite.

Misc: Up until a few years ago was a red belt in my karate class (health issues have prevented me from doing it since), and helped train a couple friends for sanctioned MMA fights.

A true Wyoming fan. I hope the byuwyom hate fest resumes soon

The Masters 5k road race All American.

Name: TheRedMenace (Lee Roy, Bandit0)

 

Hometown Albuquerque, New Mexico

 

Teams: New Mexico Lobos, Dallas Cowboys, Los Angeles Lakers, Barcelona FC

 

Interest:8 years ago accepted Christ into my life and now find myself teaching and leading...  I started in sports talk radio 25 years ago, since then started my website TheRedMenace.com 14 years ago, and 2 years ago started a local television show... Since then have started doing play by play for the indoor football team here in Rio Rancho as well as New Mexico HS sports.

 

Likes: seeing how my life and those around me how their lives have changed... teaching, doing play by play, interviewing people in all sports, watching sports,

 

Dislikes: Seeing that even though I have made major changes in my life, I still have a long way to go, and can still slip back into being an ass. seeing peeps hurt one another, people accusing others of evil slanderous garbage without getting to know the person first.

 

Music: Old Newsboys, Beatles, Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Metallica, Queen, Tom Petty... Pretty much all but Country

 

Favorite website...

TheRedMenace.com

yeah I know

 

All are rescue, some had some pretty bad starts in life. PJ is highly stressed and he really bonded with one of the foster kittens so it's really a therapy kitten. I'm good at rationalizing ;)

 

I guess another interest would be 'cat anthropologist'

I'm going to agree with Slappy. To truly be a crazy cat lady you need to have at least 15 cats. But it also depends on the size of your house. If you live in a 1500 sq foot house 15 is acceptable. Now if you live in a 4,000 sq ft house you need at least 40. 1 cat per 100 sq feet is standard. ;)

My ex gf is now a crazy cat lady. The last time I went over there, she had 14 with a litter arriving a few days later. I went over to help her get a head start on hoarding.
