A little background on everyone..

[Moppie]

Name: Moppie, but you can call me Moppie
Age 25ish

Im currently a Free Lance Consultant working for a food distrubutor, an Automotive enginer, and a Classic Porsche parts exporter.
(I drive a fucking bread truck, do casual work for a local classic and exotic car specialist, and Im dismantling a wrecked 928 porsche so the parts can be sold overseas. :finger: )

I am most of the way through a BA in Philosophy and Ethics where I learned that our current social and economic systems need to change if Humanity is to survive the next 100 years. Unforunatly I need to become a part of and promote those same social and econmic systems to get the degree I need to change it
I am not an anarchist.

I do not like religion.
I do like Anything that will make me and others happy.
I am an andrenilian junky, do not get in a car with me and question my driving skill, I will show you, and I have done 4 bungy jumps, and enjoy flying when I can afford it.
I do not like people who are so wraped up in thier own minority cluture they fail to see they are a minority.
I do not like people who think thier way is the only way, and therefore the best.
I do like to be social, and to interact with people. (thier such simple creatures :alien: )
I do enjoy a good drink.
I am currently not romaniticly involved with anyone.
I am curently looking, but not desperate. yet.
I drive a cheap economic Japanese shopping cart that is worshiped in certian parts of the world, and I will happily use it to demonstrate the laws of physics, and how they relate to power to weight ratios. Especialy if you drive a more powerful but much heavier car.
I live somewhere in the Eastern Suburbs of Auckland, but have seen pretty much most of New Zealand. I have however only been as far off shore as Brisbane and the Gold Coast in Australia. It dosnt really count for me as International travel.


oh, and I own Pman and DVS. :ylsuper :ylsuper

I've already posted this once, but the server wasn't there, soo...
Name: Emily
Age: 20
Location: 6 miles from the Utah/Arizona border
I've lived in San Jose, CA; Canon City, CO; Lebanon, OR; Grants Pass, OR; Cedar City, UT. I've been as far west as the coast, and as far east as Wisconsin, but never out of the continental US.
I work at a newspaper, in the Prepress dept., which is a catch-all. My job function is a little bit of everything, and a lot of photo toning.
Not married, no kids, but I've been dating Mac for 22 months now.
I'm not religious. At all. But I do believe that each human should have basic morals.
I don't smoke but I did go through 6 packs of candy cigarettes yesterday. :licker:
I'm a HS graduate, and may attend college in the future, but I doubt I'll get a degree. I'm very bad at learning stuff I don't want to know, but when I'm interested in something I'll learn everything possible about it. I am self-taught in most everything I know.
I'm a very obsessive person. When I do something, I get full into it. This is the main reason why I haven't tried drinking/drugs at all. I'm also a perfectionist and I GO CRAZY when people spell stuff wrong and use apostrophes as decoration.
I'm somewhat of an absentee mod.

Studying psychiatry - big exams soon, then I can start child psychiatry, which is what I really want to do.
Like: (hell, where to start?) Andy, family, friends, music (listening to, and making; I've played guitar for some 16 years now), karate (I had a shodan - 1st black belt - in Chidokan 16 years ago; not done anything again until just recently), animals, sky, rain, sun, snow, wind, stillness, silence, space, turbos, RWD....... list goes ever on and on. Which reminds me: Lord of the Rings - specially the books, Star Wars - specially A New Hope, science fiction (good science fiction that is; Asimov, Arthur C Clarke, Sheckly, Vance - old school stuff)... And thankfully I really enjoy my work too

Dislike: quite a few things, but I don't want to get into a negative mood, so I won't say anything
