Well, I got to thinking. A lot of us do not know each other, and I know since I played in Greece so long ago, not many of you know me either. So, why not create a thread where we can get to know each other? weather you be player, alumni or guest, it doesn't matter, we want to know about you. I will start. My name is Joel and I am a junior at Kansas State University majoring in elementary education. God willing, I will graduate in '10. I plan on joining the peace corps from there and teach in a foreign country while letting them pay for grad school. After that....who knows? I spent nearly six years as an army medic, spending time in Georgia, Korea, and New York. The closest I ever came to seeing war was spending time at ground zero as a medic. I had to get out on a medical discharge when my foot was crushed, but as a result, I go to school free, so its not so bad! I am SINGLE and in what little free time I do have, I like to camp, fish, and got to theaters. I am also a life long METS fan, and I love the game of baseball. Oh, I am also a Survivor fan of course. Thats about all I can think of for now. If you want to chat, and do not have my aim, its xarmydoc77. Oh, here are some pics of me you might enjoy! My Elvis look Me and my seven year old nephew Halloween with my brother. My pimp name was Tyrese. It was a good night. Never again! My favorite tattoo. I have two more. An older pic of me at a temple in Korea

Mets fan??? How'd you like last season?! I personally thought it was great!!! Philz 4 lyfe! I was wondering how long it would take you to reply to that Tom. Last season was a gift to the city of Philadelphia. Trust me, with that memory fresh in their heads and Johan Santana in the rotation. The Mets will reclaim the east this year.

Last season was a gift to the city of Philadelphia. Trust me, with that memory fresh in their heads and Johan Santana in the rotation. The Mets will reclaim the east this year. Jimmy Rollins said it best about Johan Santa. "However many games he wins and loses, that's his impact," Rollins said. "He can only pitch one game at a time, fortunately. If you play them in a three- or four-game series and he beats you every time you face him, but you win the other two games, you win the series. He's going to be a pick-me-up for their team, but when the season starts, everything is handled on the field. No matter how good you feel, you have to go out there and beat the other team."

0o0o this is fun. Kool pics Joel! And I'm jealous you have a twin Lorii. I have two lil twin bros I'll show ya'll in a second. Well Aloha ya'll. I hope everyone knows me by now - I'm the creator and one of the hosts of iSurv1vor. My name is Sandros Calderon Pomales, I'm 21 years old born and raised in New York City and on Long Island. Yeaa baby. So I currently attend University of Florida, I'm an anthropology major, and I'm totally transfering soon because this town blows. Besides that alls gravy. Don't ask me what I really wanna do with my life. If I had a clue I reckon I'd be more career oriented at the moment. Right now I'm just enjoying college. I wanna stay in it forever. I have a fear of growing up, obviously. I'm completely OCD. I would elaborate but it's pretty much embaressing. So I'll save it for a later date. I like to describe myself as a free spirit. At first most people think I'm shy and quiet, I guess I am, but after you get to know me I'm extremely random and weird. Yarr. OMG - example of my random and weirdness. Totally was at the mall the other day, decided to stop into the barber shop and get all these designes buzzed on the sides of my head. Now let me tell you, I already walked in that place with a mohawk, I left with a mohawk and all these crazy shapes..there's a swirl, and a star, it's nuts. I need to post good pictures of it here tomorrow so ya'll can see. It's pretty sick. So I've been playing online reality games since 2003. Best days of my life was when I found out these games existed lol. I started the idea of hosting in 2004 with my gaming friend Greg. He disappeared somewhere so I took the idea and rolled with it on my own. Season 1 was in end of 2004/2005 era - let me tell ya'll be lucky you didn't play that season haha. Ever since then I've been randomly hosting seasons and tada - here we all are in Hawaii for season 7. iSurv1vor has become my lovechild. I love hosting and meeting new people - I def get joy out of it. I'd continue iSurv1vor forever if I could. Over the seasons past players have joined on to help me host. Past players Landon and Cody helped season 4 and partially season 5. Joel has signed on to help with this season and probably every future season from here on out. Go us! I build close friendships with some players, it's one of the best parts of hosting. Those who truely like the series always stick around and help out somehow..it's definitely a reason we've lasted 7 seasons already. Ok, random pictures. I'm pretty much a sexy beast. love the fuzzies on my head from the shirt. very stylish. a little glimpse of the mohawk pre-buzzing...but its flattened. my younger sis Brooklyn and 2 of my younger bros Eddie (taller) and Evan my younger bro eddie whos at bootcamp <3 (left) and my best friend bryan (right) my car and the love of my life. SEAWEED <3!!!! definitely drunk. n some more. sorry a lot of my pics are really...jaw dropping. im being selective lol. chillen in my dorm at my old skool in NY we just had to sit on the turtle. best vacation ever! Andy Anthony twins, couldnt find a pic of them together both me, eons ago...the younger sandy Ok yeah, I'm gonna stop now:)

Howdy y'all. I'd love to explain a little bit about myself.
My full name is Kyle Richard Folbrecht. I was born on March 15, 1992, in the city of Fredericksburg, Virginia, a town about an hour south of Washington D.C. As a child, I really loved Thomas the Tank Engine! I had all the trains and the videos. It brings back a lot of memories. I have always loved geography ever since I could remember. I still spend time looking at maps and information about states and countries.
I lived in Wilson, North Carolina until 1998. It was a wonderful town, and I really miss it a lot. I will upload pictures of me there when I can. I can still remember my house there, and my friends, and the fishing I used to do with my dad as a boy.
I moved to Dover, New Jersey in 1998. Dover is a really tough town with a large Hispanic population, as well as some Italians and Germans (I am half German and half Italian). My dad decided that it would not be best for me to continue my education there, since the high school was filled with drugs. We moved to Wayne, where I currently live now, in 2000.
I like Wayne a lot. Wayne is quite a diverse town. It's really safe here, and its centrally located. New York City is only half an hour away, and the wonderful woods of backcountry Pennsylvania are only a two hour drive from my front door. Wayne itself has a population made up of everything really. Most people are Italian or Irish, and the rest are Asian, German, other European, and some Hispanic and even a few blacks. I really enjoy the diversity and my town. People can be rude at times, but thats New Jersey, I suppose. It has a reputation for being that way.
No matter where I am or where I live, I am still a country boy at heart. Whenever I can, I get out of town with my dad and some friends, and we go to Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, or wherever I would feel right at home. When I get older, I hope to manage a sports team, and I really want to attend James Madison University in Virginia, or the University of Virginia if I can. Going to college in the Shenandoahs would really make me happy. I love the atmosphere, and certainly the Southern belles.
Here are some things you should know about me: - I am 50% German and 50% Italian - I really enjoy learning about new cultures and learning new languages - I do speak a lot of Spanish, and I really love the language! - I have a noticable Southern accent - I am a HUGE New York Yankees fan (sorry Joel and Tom!) - My favorite genres of music are country and bluegrass - I take a lot of pride in my Catholic faith - I believe that manners, class, pride in your work, and kindness are the true things that define who a person is - Looks are not all I look for in a girl - I have never had a girlfriend, and have not even kissed a girl yet! - MY XBOX live gamertag is Madduxfan315 (Greg Maddux is my absolute favorite baseball player, without a doubt. I'd describe him to be like Rob Cesternino from Survivor because he is so smart like Rob, but not physically imposing), and I'm up for a good game of Halo, Forza, or whatever you want to play anytime!
I will post some pictures of me when I was younger when I can!

Allright I'll go now. Names Morgan Avarim O'Hea Romero (dad's supposed to be irish and mom's mexican) I never met my dad since he left my mom after he gave birth to me and my sister Vivian (who is my twin). I am currently 17 despite what my profile says and I was born in July the third. I looooove shopping and specially shoes, I'm currently single and the smartest one on my cheerleader squad (I have prooved it countless times) I want to study Fashion Design and maybe if I feel like it later become a teacher, 'cause I love teaching. I dance Tango, used to dance Ballet and am currently learning flamenco which I'm damn good at... of course I also do some dirty dancing in clubs, yay for me! I love chick flicks and I hate macho dudes, and unluckily enough all my past boyfriends have cheated on me so yeah I normally don't trust guys. I also happen to have the nicest AND hottest neighbour in the history of the whole world but whom I can't date because he already dated my sister Anyways some pics of me: Thats me and my friends Tanya and Laura. My best friend Aranza and myself, used photoshop for the cool events. My and some friends at one of their sisters quinceraƱera party. Me and Majo before a cheerleadering competition. Me and my ex-boyfriend Fernando, thats also my sisters hand. Me and Aranza during a rainy day.

Nice Idea, and nice pics Sandy <3 I'm Bridget. I am 17 years old. One of my biggest pet peeves is trying to describe myself; I usually make others do it for me. I'm reserved and friendly at the same time. I enjoy talking (haha, I have a word vomit tendency ) But at the same time, I don't open up to many people. I tend to be very sarcastic, like a lot. I hate my school with a burning passion, and I cannot wait until I am graduated so I can get out of here I love partying with my friends (the one good thing about this town: constant parties). My family is freaking ginormous. I have 10 siblings, no lie. This is very disjointed with 5th grade level sentences. I have slight OCD but I'm not like a freak. Meh, I'm apathetic at the moment. If you wanna know more, just ask me, I don't know what else to say
