My name is Naomi, I'm 16 and from London.

I'm here because I think it might be a constructive way to spend my study leave.

Welcome! Have a picture of indiana jones.

Image

The reason I present to you a pic of indy is because his bag is an anachronism - it's a mark VII gas mask bag, which didn't exist until after the movies are based!

Interesting, no?

Welcome Naomi, fellow Brit person.

You are indeed correct in your deduction that this is a good place to spend your study leave. I started mine here, and that was 83 years ago.

Have this for starters:

Hi, anachronism,

Yes, your study leave.

And then you'll find that the DAC'll be a constructive way to spend not doing your school work. Then your weekends. Your days off. Your vacations. Your graduation. Your first job. Your second job (because you spent too much time here on your first job). Your wedding day. Your third job. Your holiday in Spain. And so on and so on until you realize that your day hasn't properly begun until you've logged in and checked out what's going on in the DAC. The DAC will become your life, your friend. You'll wave towels in sympathy. You'll tell us what you're drinking... RIGHT NOW! You'll SEYMOUR!, GONZOID! or TONY! more often then you'll care to think. Essentially, we will consume your lifeforce, your soul, all hopes you have of the future. So much so that you'll wake up on the eve of your eleventyfirst birthday thinking, "What crazy crap is Ken Socrate, Jr., saying now?" That is what the DAC will become in your life. Not just a way to spend your study leave but a way to spend the rest of your life!

Muwahaha! Muwahahahahahahahahaha!! Muwhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!













Seriously, though, welcome aboard. Have a picture of Burt Reynolds.

Anyway, it's not so odd to think that Ken could be preggers.

Hmmm, have you noticed how they never stay? I mean, whatever happened to Helton?
And is it me, or is that bump in the ground in the back yard getting bigger?
And doesn't the DAC dog look healthy? Where does he keep finding those bones?

Ken has gathered quite a bone collection, hasn't he? Why do members never come back after he gives them a welcoming present?

i don´t write, i just read ... and sometimes i review. but only when the story is very good (happens rarely), or very bad (which happens way too often, but i´ve become quite good at avoiding those - usually title and summary give away more than the author wants).
i admit that sometimes i get ideas for fanfictions, but until now. i´ve never thought there was one that deserved to be written - and then there´s the fact that english isn´t my first language. so i stick to what i can do - and that´s drawing fanpics ... :wink:
