Well, as you can probably tell from the title, I'm new here. I've been lurking for a week or so, just checking the place out, getting a feel for the rules, and I have to say, this seems like one of the better boards out there.

Anyway, I suppose I should give all you people a little bit of info on myself, listed below in handy bullet-style format! :D

-As you might be able to tell by my user name, I'm Jimmy. I usually go by either Slim Jim, The Jimmy, Fish, or a myriad of other nicknames.

-I'm currently living in the Armpit of America, Alabama, and I'm barely hanging on to a job at a nearby Wal-Mart. It's not much, but it gives me money with which to purchase shinies.

-In my free time, I write (novels, songs and poems), play video games, read (pretty much anything I can find, mainly Stephen King and Dean Koontz), watch wrestling, listen to music (Evanescence, Bob Seger, and various forms of techno, mainly), and travel randomly around the state with my friends.

-Speaking of techno... I'm an amateur techno DJ. I just got started a few months ago, but already I've had some pretty positive comments on my songs.


That should cover everything. Feel free to ask me any questions, and I'll answer them... As soon as I've downed almost illegal amounts of caffeine, that is. :D

Hey there Jimmy. Nice intro! I notice you already had a stab at the rules. Good for you, but make sure you give a look at the FAQs too, they often help.
