Jill Karg has 1,247 works in progress. She actually wrote a whole two pages on her latest one before throwing it down in disgust and moving on to the next.

Sorry about that...seems Nymtoc is the last poster

Nymtoc once raced on the Nascar circuit, winning many races until a crash with Jeff Gordon on Turn 2 ended his career.

MidlifeMark spent over a hundred thousand dollars on gold bullion recently. He says he thought it would make a good soup base.

Albedo of Zero, in spite of what the name may suggest, scores much higher than a "zero". Too bad the game is golf though, so anything over par isn't good (just kiddin--all in fun)

Nymtoc uses so much oil in his hair, he went for a swim in the Gulf of Mexico last year, and BP took the blame.

Drachen Jager opened a restaurant to compete with McDonald's. His featured burger was a Big Drach, but as soon as people learned what it was made of, he was forced to close.
