    Although you do win some points for liking Bush and hating Nickelback...and the Lost thing won you a few points as well.

    You've accomplished quite a bit at such a young age, you shouldn't feel the least bit awkward about not finishing college, although I do know what that's like, I didn't finish college either and it's something I feel really self-conscious about.

    Chris is 25 years old? His image in this forum seems much much more older than that .

    That is quite a lot of information about Admin. I wish you had more time to stop by in the forums for a little chat.

    It was good job done Aimus, Night and Pensive. (getting a lot of words out of him)

    Indeed. I also hope that this thread will keep running for a long time. It's always nice to get to know a bit more about people here.

    Braveheart was definitely my favorite until LOTR came out, now I don’t know. Notting Hill is probably my favorite romantic comedy.
    Braveheart is one of my favourite too.

    I'm absolutely sure that Admin's full date of birht, year included, used to be on his public profile, so this didn't shock me the least because I knew And yes that's scary, I'm just one year younger and I don't even know what to do of my life

    Hmm anyway yes cool interview, finally the Admin Revealed!!!

    It's not that I don't see Picard's worth, he's a very good captain and very wise and he's even sort of sexy in that distinguished, European older man kind of way but that just can't compare to Kirk's raw animal magnetism.

    I really prefer TNG because of Data, but I think I like Picard because of his passion for Starfleet. He's also an intellectual captain, rather than the jock-fighter-hero type of Kirk.

    Atleast no one is singing the praises of Janeway.

    I think that's it exactly, Picard leads with his head and Kirk led with his heart. It always seemed to me that they split Kirk in two when they made TNG, Picard was his more serious, focused side and Riker was his more "playful" side. Kirk was too much man for one character, it took two men to equal his manliness.

    I never saw the version with Hathaway, I know who she is just from previews and other press releases but I never actually watched an episode of that show but she looked rather stern and cold.

    Well, Chris, I know people without college degree and they accomplish more than those who have the degree,just like yourself. Infact, it's good that you dropped college and lived for the things that you like and enjoy doing.

    Interesting interview. I've always liked how the Admin is brief ,practical and to the point,never expected that he is young though! He can really be a source of inspiration. Hope to know about the baby soon! Good luck with everything.
