88th Sniper Speeders

Wow. So you used to work in America?

Rook used to work like everywhere! I wish my life was that interesting!

Oh yeah. I lived in the USA for most of my life. About 2/3rds. My parents were both born in the US, but most of my family was born else where: Norway, Germany, Russia, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Haiti, Japan, & we're "English".

See some people have way cool lives, and have family all over the world! An then theres me...

Haha. Poor you. My mom was Born in Indonesia and my Dad was from Jakarta. I was born in Singapore, and my sister in Sira Lanka.

















Ok. I lied. Everyone in my family was born in the American midwest. Except for me! I was born in TEXAS!

It's funny you say that. I have a very rare name and so does my wife. We were out at one night with some of our friends (Jeb, Liv, & Hans) and we started talking to this guy and he said, "How I do become a member of the cool name club?" We laughed.

Haha, cool. Is your name really Rook???

Rook. No those letters are in my name. However, I choose that as a screen name also because the "Rook" in a deck of Rook cards is like the Joker and the Ace of Spades all in one. Also a Rook is "Black Bird" often a very powerful symbol in many cultures. (I.E. The Crow, The Raven, The Bat (when people thought it was a bird).)

It's also a pretty important piece in chess.

Ah yes, I forgot that in my post, but here was an avatar that I was playing with a while back. I also played a lot of chess in my youth.

Rook, you did a good job on them!

Yeah they are WAY cool! We like to get way of topic with our discussions sometimes...

:spammers: Yea, we kinda do. Has anyone actually realized that these aren't a WIP anymore?
