Hello since we all will be having fun this year we may as well get to know each other just a bit more. I'll kick it off:
Name: Andrew Myron
Favorite Baseball team: Yankees NFL: Texans NHL: NY Rangers NBA: Don't watch MLS: Sporting KC NCAAB: IU NCAAM: Mich. St. Beer: Too many to list and depends on the time of year Drink of choice: Rye Whiskey Band(s): Way too many to list depends on the genre. Jam Band, Heavy Metal, Classic Rock, Soul, Jazz, Funk, Blues, Outlaw Country, Etc. Career: I work in logistics for RR Donnelley
Age: 29, this question should make Rowland happy, he may not be the only dinosaur but it may backfire.
Marital Status: Married
I'm trying to think of questions and I'm not good at this. How about we keep this an ongoing thread and have everyone that posts also ask a question. Everyone always has a question they want to ask. Let's find out what we all have in common.
