Hi there.
« on: March 16, 2012, 02:56:34 PM »
My name is Michael.

I used to read the Animorphs books way back in middle school... I started in 1996. I got to about the early 30s before I stopped (mostly due to being a kid, not having money, and my parents not supporting my sci-fi habits).

Some years later I caught the ending of the series. In the years since then, I've filled in some of the gaps.

Anyway, here I am, a grown adult reminiscing about one of my favorite sci-fi series.

Hello Codemonkey,

Do you like Fritos? Tab and Mountain Dew? Are you a very simple man; with a big, warm, fuzzy, secret heart? ;D

I'm Darth Revan and I would also like to welcome you to this little corner of the 'Net filled with devoted fans.

I prefer his acoustic version. It holds more emotion when he sings it live.

Hello and welcome to the forum!  I'm DinosaurNothlit, but feel free to call me DN or Dino, most people do.

Oy, having to read the series out of order would have driven me crazy.  Good luck with filling in those gaps.  On some level I'm jealous of you, though, because I sure miss the thrill of opening a new Animorphs book for the first time.

And don't worry, the majority of us are grown adults.  Turns out that doesn't mean much.

Well said, Dino :P

Welcome to the forum, Codemonkey! See you around the boards :)
You may have been given a cactus. Doesn't mean you have to sit on it.

Hello codemonkey, I am a Realm Walker.  My assumed name is Cloak.

Be sure to register your RAFspecies in the "What is your species" thread, which I term "the registry".  Most RAFians have one -- I'm, like I mentioned before a Realm Walker.  Noelle is an Andalite.  And we're just two RAFians.
