Some people may not remember me, some may. I was a daily (multiple) per day poster back from 02-05 ish...but have pretty much been nonexistent since then as far as posting.

I still check the site almost daily, and I am actualyl impressed with the intelligence etc in the box office forums. Some pretty good, intelligent posters.

It seems the Water Cooler has simmered down a bit though

So fill me in? How is everyone?

I am married and just turned 30, have two boys (5 and 2) with another child on the way!
(I know weird coming from me, but that's a whole different story)

I will say I am glad to see such a little forum like this last so many years. Still feels like "home" in a way.

I'm divorced, which some people will never let me forget, for whatever reason.
I'm engaged, which some people will never let me forget, for whatever reason.

Otherwise, I'm pretty much the same. No kids, decent job, two dogs.

I am always surprised when old posters reveal they are married with kids, as I assumed a majority of our old posters were gay.

I swear to god if tim comes back and reveals he's straight and married, I may die.

What kind of dogs?

Lab/mix of something
And cattle dog/lab mix

And despite us moving into a much larger place, they're still insane and wrestle almost 24 hours a day.

Nice. Love dogs and always have!

I feel pretty dumb now though, because I was unaware of the "joke" in the Interstellar threads lol...

"Newbie" Mistake

Im getting married next year.

and im getting close to 30 and im going bald... i hate everyone.

I worked in news for a while in Maryland then London, moved back to NYC and started my own film company. I act in a few things once in a while, but mostly stay on the production side now. This year a film I AD'd has won 12 film festivals and is the first to ever get distribution and a theatrical release, and I'm negotiating to write and direct my first film. Still a year of pre production but I'm truly excited about it. Until then a mix between Corporate Gigs and features/pilots that keeps me busy.

27 and full head of hair

In my 50s and mostly have all my hair. Married, no kids, four cats (McGonigal, Abigail, Mrs. Premise and Mrs. Conclusion)

Most of my personal stuff is on my blog (www.michaelaventrella.com) and Facebook page, so please feel free to friend me there.

I am 25 now. I moved to the Chicago area in February. I have always wanted to move back there. I moved in with my boyfriend who already lived there so that made it so much easier. We met through work and we both recently got promoted. Our company does a lot of traveling and they wanted to assemble a team specifically for the big out of town jobs. Out of the 14 branches and 300 some employees they chose 30 people to interview for the 10 positions they wanted to fill. Somehow they chose us both so we have gotten to travel together since May. We have been home a total of 5 and a half days since then which is kind of crazy but its been a fun adventure. I couldnt be any happier.

I also sold my house in Missouri in June so that was exciting. Cant wait to buy a new one together in Chicago.

I'm 28, married, live in China, work in marketing, exercise daily, have a full head of hair, am tall, with a GSOH, and measure 6-inch on the flop.

NO TIME WASTERS!

Pssssst, matatonio. Batnanna didn't mention anything about her hair. I think she's bald, so don't feel so bad.

Damn. Knew someome would catch that.

I'm 23. Happily married home-owner with a steady, well-paying job with two dogs, Zoe and Wilder.

Im seriously going to use rogaine or some natural homemade crap. I need to stop this receding hairline.

I'm 23 and still unsure of what to do for the rest of my life. It's so bizarre to say I'm 23 on here when I remember I was one of the youngest people on BOM. I'm hoping that within the next 2 years I am able to become more independent and financially secure.

I guess that makes you the baby Diego of WOKJ

I'm 24 and in graphic design school so I think I know what I'm going to do. I have emotional problems and scars so socially I'm not really an adult as much as other people my age but I think the person I want to be with wants to be with me back someday so that's a break.

I currently hate my life.

Well, you are in Croatia. I mean, come on, nobody wants to be in Croatia.

I also have a full head of glorious hair.

Snotty reply #1: Wigs don't count.

Snotty reply #2: "And I keep it in my refrigerator!"

No.

Fuck it just go Lex Luther!

I am alive
