L/Cpl Derek Conley, reporting as ordered.

Semper Fi, Marines.

For those of you I met at DragonCon, this is Derek. I was the FNG for a night... and I had a blast.

Most of you said I should rank myself as a Corporal due to having held that rank in the U.S.M.C.; I opted to be a bit humble and bust myself down to L/Cpl... which I will stick with unless told otherwise.

Glad to be here!

That's what I get for thinking.
Hi, I'm also from Florida, and I attended DragonCon this year, say some of you guys there! Awesome awesome.
I'm going to go for infantry pulse rifle outfit, then also going to do my darnest to get a full smartgun setup.
I do SCA, and also breed ball pythons. I'm 36 and I work full time as a IC groomer.
Nice to meet ya'll!

Hi my name is Abby

Me and My husband own a costuming business in Alabama. Both of us are huge fans of the alien movies. We are in the process of building an alien and we already have a predator.

Nice picture from Dragon Con. We talked with a few of you there about joining. So here we are.

I don't check this thread as much as I should, I'm sorry.

WOW, DC07 seems to be a great year for new folk checking us out.
Welcome one and welcome all.

Now wolfy....which one were you again?

(Obligatory introduction post)

Hey, I already shot out an introduction/query, but another won't hurt. I'm out of Northern California, going to Cal Maritime and having a blast. Being out of the southern part originally, it's really a change. Whether it's better or not, we'll have to stay tuned.

Heya,

When I went to change my location- as per new regs- I realized that I've not posted on the new location at all. I've only been back for the last couple of months and have been playing the lurk game. Anyway, I'm Paul Andrews aka PNerves from Denver CO. I'm one of the old guys who saw Aliens in the theater in high school... about 15 times. I remember the first one vaguely, as I was Star Wars mad back then- still am. I'm in the 501st- TD, TI, and have TK and TS armor in boxes. I've been working on a USCM helmet for longer than I should have (almost finished and pics soonest) and am getting some of the Hi-Impact armor. I have designed the graffiti though.. heh...

Cheers!


Oh, and I'm an avid pub quiz player. I play at a couple of places in Denver on a team called The Neo-Maxi Zoom-Dweebies. I wanted to call the team The Bill Paxton Martini Ranch and Gun Club. I was outvoted 5 to 1. Jerks.

Welcome to the Bill Paxton Martini Ranch and Gun Club.

No kidding... me too.

Hello to Abby, Kedyw and Paul... welcome to our little home! Everyone here's helpful and friendly (Except Airborne Mike, he's just a grumpy old coot who we can't seem to make smile... EVER)... any questions, just ask!

Paul, speaking of old coots, a fellow marine resides in Parker, CO... he's an old mean ornery cuss. Watch out!



We've censored out his stare... his eyes have the gorgon spell!

Of course, 33% of this post is in jest, so have fun deciphering it!

Hi
My name is Angela and Im from London. I've been reading the board for ages but have been too scared to join! But after seeing some of your faces on the Colonial Marines website I dont think I need to be frightened ... or do I? There seemed to be a particularly fetching photo of Harry Harris

Anyway, I like sci-fi, I have a few props, mostly weapons but no M41A

I'll be at Leicester but in civvies. See you there.

Angela

Hi Angela,

Welcome to the barracks!
I presume you're talking about the photo of Harry on The UK Colonial Marines site?

http://www.colonialmarines.co.uk/home/members/

Anyway, come up and say hello at the NSC Leicester event. You won't recognise me as I've cunningly withheld my photo from that members page! (okay, I simply haven't sent the photos in yet!).

By the way, if you didn't go to the NSC last year, you MUST go into the Aliens Experience!

Hi and thanks for the welcome.

I'll be sure to do the AE this year -- I couldn't ge in last year
