Hello:
My name is Daniel Headrick. I'm a queer, thirty-something Jack Tripper reincarnate, born, raised and living in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Artist, photographer, socialist, layabout and loveable rogue. Constantly at home, working on both my laptop and desktop simultaneously. Disabled due to Addison's disease and its complications, hence I'm always at home. Unfortunately I can't be away from home for very long, but I try to make the best of things. When I did work I was a projectionist for a few years, then went into skiptracing (basically a bounty hunter behind a desk) for a few more before becoming disabled. Avid music, art, film and reference book fan. I'm also a collector of 'objets', particularly Catholic and Hindu religious iconography; also medical and optical devices, as well as just plain 'beautiful' objects. My apartment is like a crowded curiosity museum. All in all, a total nerd, dork, etc.

Thanks, mouser. I thought it was about time I formally introduced myself considering I'm on the forum so much lately.

Hi and welcome Daniel

Coeluh · « **Reply #480 on:** April 02, 2009, 02:33 PM »

Well I guess I have to introduce myself aswel.

I'm a student, 17 years old and I like to play squash, soccer (futsal). I love snowboarding, favourite thing to do in the world. I like to watch TV shows like family guy, 24, south park and a whole other bunch of series. I'm going to finish my secondary education this year and then start at technichal university of Eindhoven and study Industrial Design (bachelor). I am no coder, I am a designer is what I say, as I am not a good coder and not really willing to get better in it. (I guess I have to when I go to university).

I can be real whiny, or untactful. I just want to get my way sometimes too bad.

Yes, PSV struggling this year but will be back

Coeluh · « **Reply #484 on:** April 02, 2009, 03:21 PM »

Haha any dutchies here?

I like to play [...]soccer.

QUIT. NOW. Playing soccer kills the little part of your brain that helps you code, and IT NEVER REGENERATES!
You have been warned.

Welcome people!

PSV sucks, always did. Watch Ajax / AZ for fun, entertaining football instead.

Shades · « **Reply #489 on:** April 02, 2009, 09:39 PM »

Come on PhilB66:

PSV were practically neighbours (when I was living in Holland). Do they still say: 'Eindhovuh de gekste!!!' ?

Brabo to the core!

PhilB66 · « **Reply #490 on:** April 03, 2009, 01:49 AM »

I am only familiar with the nickname PSV boeren

Jaan Tamm · « **Reply #491 on:** April 03, 2009, 03:18 AM »

Hi! I'm from Tartu, hope everyone knows, where it is situated

I'm a poor student, who is not very much fond of studing, prefers playing WoW and hanging around with some crazy estonian people

However, teachers at the university love me

But it's all because i'm lucky to be full namesake of a great scientist

looks like a good game Coeluh (did a search on youtube), I hadnt come across it before - I know people who play "indoor football" (soccer) not sure, maybe that's the same?
is there any videos about it you'd recommend?

futsal *is* indoor football, it is just a name variant that was officially recognized by FIFA. the origins may be Portuguese - a testament to the Brazilians' prowess.

Yeah indoor soccer is futsal, I thought I would use a more widely known translation of 'zaalvoetbal'. Well I prefer to watch common soccer, on the grass and stuff. Way more attractive to watch.

surely we're having quite a number of footy fans nowadays..
