Ahoy hoy, folks (from Florida)

Postby cygnus434 » Sun Jun 03, 2012 12:14 pm

Hey there everybody. The real life name is Andrew. I work as a computer programmer at a major state university in Florida. I might be (or may end up being) known as the boytoy/boyfriend/boy___ of our beautiful (she truly is!) resident moderator named shrapnel. My curiosity was piqued in this forum based on tidbits of things shrapnel has told me about. Finally, I decided to join when shrapnel showed me the cool videos of the guy (from Germany) who builds his own slingshots. That was bad ass.

If you want to know more public information, just ask me in this thread and I'll reply as best I can. If you want the dirt on shrapnel, well...I"ve been sworn to secrecy on most things. I would like to not wake up to a knife at my throat for saying too much... :D

Finally, I promise not to troll you *too* badly, shrapnel ;p

PS: Bonus points to whomever is able to correctly guess where my username came from. HINT: think music.

Cheers,
cygnus434

You assume she wouldn't just off you in your sleep BEFORE you had a chance to wake up.

You know what happens when you assume, right? :mrgreen:



Welcome, and as far as the username, um, Rush had a song named Cygnus right?

Yes. You win.

Technically, they have *two* songs with Cygnus in the title, but the second song is basically a continuation of the first. You are still the winner.
:D
