I don't want to spam your HB thread.

You seem like an alright dude. What are you doing in Ankeny? I don't mean that in a derogatory way, just curious.

Well...I lived in Chicago for a while after I graduated college and then I got a job working for the Iowa DOT (in Ames) about a year ago, so I moved back to the DSM area. Specifically, Ankeny, as it was a closer drive to Ames every day.

I actually graduated from Waukee H.S. (yeah...haha) back in '98, so I have lived in the DSM area most of my life.

Pretty much everyone I used to know and hang out with around here has either moved away or started the whole married/kids/family thing, so they aren't able to do much with their free time.

I live in Ankeny with my girlfriend and her 6 year old son, so I am pretty much as good as married myself...but that doesn't mean I don't try to make it out to shows and shit whenever I can.

I didn't really know what the scene was like in DSM after being gone for almost 5 years, so it is cool to hear about places like HB and also find a messageboard like this and see there is actually a scene here.

Anyway...what else ya wanna know?

Huh...names don't ring a bell, but the IT division is so big that it is hard to know who is who unless they work with you.

I work in the Office of Transportation Data. I do GIS and Cartography. It is pretty fun.

You talk about Banner Pilot a lot, and when someone starts talking about a pop punk band a lot, that means they usually suck and that I will not like them.

Thanks for the warning.

Don't take it personally, nobody likes me.

I like you, man. I like you. Hah....

And wait until I get enthusiastic about other bands I like. You'll hate all of 'em I'm sure.

Oh, that was an edit, most likely by Servo, which is funny, because, ask around... who really likes that guy?

Actually....I don't really talk much when I first meet people. Drinking defintely helps take some of the awkwardness away though. I say much more on messageboards than I probably do in real life.
