What do you think about the Buzz?
It's a nice initiative, but I think the effort put into it is quite high compared to the few readers it has. I don't really read the buzz that often myself. But hey, as long as you guys keep running it, I wouldn't know why it shouldn't be there.

That's got to be strawberry!

How long do you play Bootleggers?
Do you mean how long *have* I played? If so, I've played since 2005 off-and-on. If you mean how long do I play on a daily basis then probably 4-5 hours. So weekly that would be 28-35 hours.

I was RPing on AOL at the time and Sabin was in the same realm as I was. He talked about it a lot and the link was sent around.

That's a private list.

Mine.
How did you come up with your current username?
A lot of people have claimed I took it from Coheed and Cambria but I didn't. Although I AM an admitted fan. Some have said I stole it from The Fold but that is incorrect as well. The "Neverender" is actually an entity that never dies and continues to oversee her world and all of its inhabitants. That is of course a character in one of my stories. o_o

I joined the ranks didn't I?
If you had to choose to not ever wash your bed sheets again or not wash your bath towel ever again, which would you rather not wash and why?
Bath towel because I can always go to Wal-Mart and buy a cheap set once they are full of mildew and smell.
