> Wow. I'm a bit suprised to see a community with a conservative lean (however small). (see below).

> > Tell us about yourself. Where you're from, your age, what you like, etc. Me, I am Quartz (real name not important right now), and I'm a 15-year-old female. I'm a writer, as are a LOT of other people here. In fact, Sam (the head of this place) is a writer. Tell us anything you want, and don't worry about being embarrassed because we'ver all done that before. Your posts can be serious, absurd, whatever.

The political selector sez Constitution(US), but closer to Rep. than Dem..

Internet. Bible study(As a hobby? Yes.)

> Pets: 1 guinea pig (Blind Lemon Wilbur), 1 ferret (Jimmy Dean)...

We have at least one other ferret owner about. It's not me. ^_^

...2 cats (who both hate me), more gerbils than I care to count, and about 20 fish (all of which are named Charlie Tuna).

One dog, Patches.

> Favorite book: "Candide" by Voltaire

The Bible.

> Musical tastes: I'm often ridiculed by my peers for my fandom of Elton John... ("Hey kids, shake it loose together/The spotlight's hittin something that's been know to change the weather...")

Jewish music, both Mesianic and other, but anything with a good message is enjoyed.

6' something, size 13...

> I don't have a favorite TV show, because i don't really watch TV (bad for the brain, you know!)...

I watch more Dr. Laura than anything, actually.

Like Richie Rich's Irona?

That's not even close to all of me, but you're welcome to ask. ^_^

> One more thing: Yes, i am Jannette from the Rinklympics in Rink Chat. That was the first time I was here... I kept meaning to return to visit, but never got around to it until now. I hope to be back regularly, though.
