Week 0 - Introductory Post

Where to start... where to start...

My name is Chris, and I am 23 years old, even though I look noticeably younger. At the moment, I am an art student at the University of Maine, as well as a volunteer delivery driver with Meals For Me. At the moment, I don't have access to a scanner, but once I do, you can bet I'll be posting things I've done.

I don't know which I am the most envious about: your new Mac, your status as a student, or your sexuality. Oh who are we kidding...

I want a Mac too. The other two? BTDT. Welcome to Idol.

The painting looks a lot like a photograph. Where did you find it?

I love wandering around here when I need graphical inspiration.

Nice intro!
I love the Food Network..Unwrapped is such an awesome show along with anything Alton Brown does (love that man...)

I look forward to reading more.

[geniusinmaine]

Nice to see that you're looking forward to more of my entries :)

Hey man.

I have to admit that there has been a lure to Mac ownership but I keep on dealing w/ the troubles of a regular pc and Windows. My computer was gone for 2 weeks. It is running OK (much better then before) but I am still getting some glitches that I need to deal w/. 3 cheers for having almost 2.5 TB of hard drive space.

I watch a bit of the food network but am a huge fan of Bizarre Foods on the Travel Channel. I watch that more then any other food program.

And as far as sexuality goes, more power to ya my friend. I hope that by announcing it that you are able to have a bit more freedom. What matters to me is how a person treats others and as evidenced through your entries over the years you are a genuinely nice person who treats others w/ kindness. That is what really counts. You also get points for being a Monty Python fan and lover of cartoons. =)

I didn't know that you watched Food Network. I don't know if Travel Channel is available on basic cable here--Bizarre Foods sounds fascinating, and I will have to check it out sometime.

Have you ever used a Mac before? I'll admit the Mac OS takes some getting used to, but once I had some practice with it, I found it easier to find, open, and switch between programs with the Mac OS than with Windows.

Thanks for your kind words, and the points are certainly appreciated :)

I like Rachel Ray and Guy Fieri on food network. If you go to youtube they have several different clips from Bizarre Foods on there. Andrew Zimmern eats a whole lot of "weird" stuff but to be truthful I would be willing to try most of it.

I've never used a Mac. I have never known anybody local who has one. Price is something that has kept me away so far but maybe one of these days.

You are most welcome. Had a Monty moment at work last night. Me and another guy were singing the Lumberjack Song. The girl we were singing to had no idea, she leads a sheltered life. =)

[geniusinmaine]

Monty moments are always fun.

Welcome and well met! I love to swim, too. Well, to be accurate, I like to float and play in water. But laps are cool. Isn't it great how we can be different and still get along?

[geniusinmaine]

Floating and playing are fun in really warm pools.

(and yes, it is great)

I like some of the same Food Network shows that you do, but I can't cook to save my life.

Welcome to LJ Idol!

[geniusinmaine]

Thank you!

Cooking can be scary at first--I'll admit that I was nervous the first time I tried making several of the dishes--but it gets easier the more you do it.
