Default Allow me to Introduce Myself: ImpactedColon

I have no idea how I never stumbled across this group before, but I am excited. I don't know how many times when I was knee deep in WoW that the level 60 main tank in UBRS turned around right before the General battle and said "Sorry guys, I gotta go. My mom says it's time for dinner."

And now to the perfunctories: (1) I am over 25 years of age; (2) I have read the AUP & FAQ; (3) I have read the forum/server guidlines.

I am a 34-year-old lifelong dorkus malorkus with a wife and three kids--a 4-year-old son and twin two-year-old daughters (who I politely refer to as Loud and Louder). I work for a nonprofit in Washington DC and in my spare time write math books. My latest is the Humongous Book of Calculus Problems (Translated for People that Don't Speak Math), a mere two weeks old (and available at Amazon.com *cough*). More info on my professional life at my website: www.calculus-help.com. Try to find the animated GIF of me dancing at my wedding. And then try to burn it out of your brain.

You may also remember me from such books as The Complete Idiot's Guide to Algebra and such movies as Locker Room Towel Fight: The Blinding of Larry Driscoll. I used to be an avid WoW player--two level 60s, one Elven and one Undeadian--and did the CoH/CoV thing as well. Currently in the Lord of tehe Rings Online beta. I love me the MMOs but I get tired of the guilds full of 13-year-olds that demand 5 runs in Molten Core a week. Need grown-up friends...

Oh, ImpactedColon, how could you not catch my eye with a name like that? And the Simpsons references! You can be my new BFF.

Welcome to TOG! If you ever decide to dust off WoW and play on the Runetotem server, I know a few people *winkwink* and can get you in. I can also talk CoH/V with you. (AND I can tell the difference between butter and I Can't Believe it's Not Butter.)
