You know, when I joined here on January 3, 2007, I don't believe I made up an introductory thread.
Better late than never, one supposes.
I'm franksolich, from the Sandhills of Nebraska. I've lived all over, but right now, that's where I live. Single, average looking; college graduate (British history, and then later economics), livelihood general accounting work, free-lance; quiet, wallflower, shy, generally nonassertive, inobstrusive, and unnoticed.
Those rare times I call someone on the telephone--about three times a year, maybe--I open up with "Hi, this is me," and the person at the other end immediately knows it's franksolich.
My public-service work involves "quality checking" the primitives on Skins's island, to see if the primitives are what they say they are.
