Allow myself to introduce myself

We had an introduction thread up a while back, but it has up'n disappeared. Since last year though there have been quite a few new posters to grace this Bengals' forum and I kind of like to know where people are coming from with their comments and opinions. So I am starting a new introduce yourself to the forum thread. ***TOO PERSONAL STUFF IS OUTLAWED i.e. - names, pictures of you and your girlfriend at the county fair, social security numbers, shoe size, etc.***
