Thread: n00b on deck!

howzit goin everyone! name's Pj. i inadvertely stubbled upon this site lookin for a different anime site, but after about 2 hours of browsin the shizzle, i stopped my search here. well, okay, about me...

I'm 19 years old. I grew up in a lil ol' town called Ripley, TN just about 50 miles north of Memphis (I know ya'll have heard of it at least once. Elvis Presley? ****in BB King? Beale Street for cryin out loud, come on people!). I'm every bit of country-boy, city-slicker, cyber-goth all rolled into one great big ball of gooey fleshiness. As anime goes, well, what I see is what I get, and I don't get to see very much. I think in the, umm, 4 years (?) I've known about it, I've only seen about 10 different things: Pokemon (of course, who hasn't), Adult Swim's lil lineup (Rurouni Kenshin, Inyu Yasha, Case Closed, Cowboy Beebop, Trigun), some stuff on G4 back when it was still TechTV and a decent television station (Serial Experiment Lain), Neon Genisis Evangelion (omg I'm so in love with Rei), Gundam Wing (the only decent one in my opinion), Labyrinth of Flames (something me and mah ex watched) and my most recent, and probably my favorite of all of them so far, Gungrave (Brandon Heat is the shizzle mah nizzle). Mostly, I'm a gamer. Final Fantasy Series, anything Star Wars (SWGalaxies included), racers, shooters, action and adventurers (is it a new word?) Whatever catches my candy eyes. I skateboard, I play football, I watch NASCAR (go Tony Stewart! Jeff Gordan can burn in the fiery pits of MY hell!), I go to clubs (the good kind, like, gothic/bondage/fetish/industrial clubs), I work five days out of the week, and I have a pHd in Beach Bumming. My job, well, I'm in the United States Navy, the greatest Navy in the world, and if for some reason anyone would like to question that, by all means, raise a hand and one of our carrier battle fleets would be more than happy to arm wrestle with ya. I'm enlisted at the bottom of the ladder, so no, I don't make money (yet). I'm a Cryptologic Technician, Maintenence branch (or CTM for short). I fix broken shit. I'm currently in a "C" or Advanced school learning how to work on passive radio equipment......and that's all you need to know. HOWEVER!!! Come January 3 (my birfday, as it where) I'm recieving the mother of all birthday gifts....I'M GOIN TO ****IN JAPAN!!! **pauses from keyboard to do happy dance** I've wanted to go to Japan since, like, the 10th grade and now I'm going to a ship homeported in Honshu Yokosuka which is only a few (don't ask how many) miles south of Tokyo! Cheers for me!!!

Well anyways.....that's not really me in a nutshell. This is me in a nutshell {( )} <--see, it's a nutshell. But, you have a rought idea.

Reply back, introduce yerself, lemme get to know as many of you as my underdeveloped brain is capable of registering.
