Belated
I joined like three days ago, and have been replying to some posts (but noone has responded); but I didn't say hello first. So, hello. Nice to meet you all.
“Those who argue that art and philosophy are proof of human worth neglect to mention that, in the scheme we have devised, artists and philosophers are powerless and largely without prestige. Art, music, and philosophy are merely poignant examples of what we might have been had not the priests and traders gotten hold of us.” - George Carlin

play hard, like it's work to be done.
I started coming to the site about a month ago after I finally got a working computer. But I didn't look at the forums until after I joined. My main reason for joining though was because I wanted to talk with other people who can actually enjoy reading too (since most of my friends don't).
I've actually only read three of Chuck's novels, since I just don't have any money to buy any new ones. But I have rant sitting on my nightstand (it's next on my list).
From the authors I've read, my all time favorites, thus far, are Bret Easton Ellis, Francesca Lia Block, Gregory Maguire, Harper Lee, Truman Capote, Kurt Vonnegut and Chuck.
And, as far as hobbies go, I read, draw, write (poetry, novels, and shorts) knit, listen to music, and watch some movies.

You stick with me, kid.
You're gonna live forever.
