Well might as well...
I am John McCracken. Born April 30, 1986 in Indiana. Grew up in Indiana till about 3 months ago where I came to Japan as an exchange student. I am currently living in Yachimata, Chiba ken, Japan. Not far from Tokyo and the cool stuff.
I do just about everything with some type of competence. I have built many computers, modded out LEDs in my room, ran track a while ago, I love weight lifting (do it almost every day), I draw, I paint, I build models, I fix stuff, I build stuff, I have been scuba diving, I have paintballed (love it), I have engineered speakers, I have done math competitions, written a book, play RPGs (video and paper), and modded out my car, carpentry, house building, and a lot of stuff. My goal is to become a modern jack-of-all-trades of sorts. But you know...
Anyway, next summer I have to go to college, not sure where yet but you know how that can be. I take things as they happen, dont look on the past often, and welcome the future for all its worth.
My favorite phrase is ``Its all good`` coined partially by myself and I also love Japanese women. Hence why I am in Japan. j/k culture plays a part there.

Enjoy that if you want any more information, ask. Peace

My name's Jeff, I was born in May 1982, and lived in Illinois my entire life, except for 2 months in 2003 where I lived in Kanazawa, Ishikawa, Japan and now. I've lived in Kobe, Hyougo, Japan for almost 4 months, doing a foreign exchange program. Kobe is near Osaka and Kyoto, and I'd just like to give a big middle finger to the Kantou area (yes, that's you too, Tokyo and Yokohama!)... before I go spend Christmas there. My hobbies are translating obscure documents from Japanese to English, and playing Famicom and PS2. Unlike many of you, I remember the pre-NES period of history... well, mainly I remember seeing the NES when I was 3 and thinking it was just about the most awesome thing ever. And now, when I am 22, I see new incarnations of it and think they are the most awesome things ever. My long-term goal is to make a multiconsole system supporting the NES, Famicom, Atari 2600, Sega Genesis among others. In as small a space as possible, of course.

Hey, I am G-force AKA Gabriel Dufendach, I am 16 and my Bday is june 2nd, I live in Indiana about an hour from Indianapolis, I have 3 brothers and 4 sisters, and I have been a christian since I was 9 years old. I have been home schooled my whole life and I like it a lot.

I like rock music and my current fav is linkin park (im listening to LP right now in fact, probably why I put this first)

I love skiing and snowboarding but im not too good on the board but i rock on skiis! I could beat anybody on a pair of good skiis.

I am a bit of a perfectionist which is why I take so long making new portables, Ive made about 10 cases but they werent too great so I trashed em. I am currently working on my best portable ever! It starts with the initials GI...and thats all I will tell for now.

I just got the family dell with 2.4 Ghz processor, 512 Mb RAM, 64 Mb Video card, and some other cool stuff on it, but I am still limited by extra slow dial up (28.8 Kb/s!) I wish DSL was offered here....
I know nothing of programing, but I wish I did.

I currently have a learners permit but I hope to get my license and a car with money from selling custom game stuff on ebay.

I love drawing comic books, and reading them, Ultimate Spider-Man rocks! (but the movies suck!)

I was playing basketball on our homescool team but I quit to help with the house being remodeled (and because it was STUPID!!)

I could go on for quite a bit, but i am tired and noboby cares about this crap anyway so I'm done.

Yeh I guess so. I pretty much teach myself from books. Beats putting up with dumb teachers.

I guess I'm a little slow on the uptake because I saw this and didn't realize that I could reply to it...oh well. Ben. Minnesota.

Hey, my name is Brian. I'm a little embaressed!

GOG thinks he's old and only 18.

O.K. Here it goes... I was born March 9, 1977. My birthday is today, so, that makes me 28. (Still younger than Ben) I still remember when the NES came out - I was 7 - and my family had a Colecovision before that. Btw: I remember what the game aisle looked like at Target when NES and Sega Saturn were at war, I wish I had a picture of it to show you. It was beautiful!

I stumbled across this site a few days ago and after about 20 minutes declared Ben as "My Hero". So, you should Know - I will buy his book and I WILL build the Hand-made NESp.

After a few days I can already tell you guys are going to be great asset to an old-timer like me.

Incidentally, I might be able to help you all out too. See, I work In Technical Support for Coleman A/C, RV division, and I'm quite knowledgable about A/C thermostats and printed circuit board diagnostics. (This is what I do between calls, sit at my desk and surf the web.) I love my job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [/quote]

Hi, my name is Jason Gibson and I live in Conover NC. I am an oldie too I guess since I am 25 years old. I too remember the good old days when the NES was but a baby. I love retro gaming as well as the new stuff. I have a Xbox, but nothing will ever beat the games of my childhood. That's why I am building my own NESp! I enjoy gaming, fishing, camping, going to church, and spending quality time with my wife.

missed this thread till now.

my name is JT (imagine that). i live in lawrence ks, and go to college here at KU. i'm currently a computer engineering major, but i hate it, and i think i'm going to switch to something completely unrelated (art? design? music?).
I enjoy video games, even though I don't keep up with them very much (i'm currently playing wind waker and i game on my ibook, if that tells you anything). i like music a lot, of all kinds. right now i'm listening to a lot of alt-country and power pop, with a little bit of psychobilly thrown in the mix. i prefer my music on vinyl (it sounds better), but i listen to my ipod most of the time (more convenient). i make my own music with a guitar and an organ (listen <a href="http://www.icompositions.com/artists/jaytee/">here</a>).
i ride my schwinn cruiser around town. i drive a 1989 saab 900 turbo, but not as much as i ride my bike.
i enjoy long walks on the beach and candlelit dinners.
