Alright, I'll start off the second edition of this thread.
I'm Jeremy Riggs (not my real name but this is still my real hair (for now)).
Back in 2003 I started off this little station and soon after (early 2004) brought JD in to handle the weekend shift.
I used to own a commercial cleaning business but sold that a few years ago. Lived in North Carolina for part of last year but now I'm back in good ol' Wisconsin, the land of cheese and beer. Now I'm working a pretty crappy job on third shift at a local college, hoping to eventually be promoted to a manager of the people with crappy jobs.
Hobbies include music (obviously), watching small market baseball teams that have the odds unfairly stacked against them as they struggle to achieve mediocrity, and stamp collecting. (I made that last one up).
My life's goal is to use subliminal messages distributed through the station to build an army loyal to my desire of world domination. So far though we've only been able to reach about 150 people in total.
Let's see, what else.
Oh yeah, I tend to be serious pretty much all the time.
Next?

... Yep, that's pretty much me in a nutshell!

I'm "WebGuy" but most everyone around here just calls me "Web".
I've been a member here quite some time and I have the wrinkles and ulcers to prove it.
I'm 43 (at this time) live in Nebraska and I'm self employed doing a little woodworking and a lotta web hosting. Some have even hinted that they think I'm a bit of a geek.
I'm a Christian guy with strong convictions. When I mention something about my church, my faith, or my beliefs, its not meant to offend, its just part of who I am and how I see things through my Christian world view.
My hobbies include bass playing, kite flying, ham radio, and throwing JR (Jeremy) under the bus. Of those hobbies, I'm better at one of them than all the others.
Edit to add: Next?

My real name is Michelle Hartz. It's all over the internet from past jobs, so I don't mind sharing it. Oh, and MzHartz is pronounced "Mizz" not "Em Zee."
When did I start listening? 2005 maybe? I listened for a couple months before I joined the forum. I liked the request list, and there was something on the main page that caught my eye on the forum, so I joined.
I'm currently a graphic designer, which is my dream job. But I'm never satisfied, so I'm going back to school part time next fall for Biology, and eventually Marine Biology.
I live in southern Indiana, in Bloomington, which is the home of Indiana University. I hope to someday move to a coast.
When not chatting on the forum, I'm probably playing video games or board games, painting, crafting, writing, or doing tai chi. I've written 2 books and plan to self publish one in the next couple months. I like watching drag racing live, but prefer to watch football and soccer on tv. But I refuse to get cable and the only public tv station I can get in is PBS, so I don't watch a whole lot of tv.
I'm married to a long haired hippy. No kids and never want kids. Instead, I have two cats (Sami, a girl, and Jack, a big male that likes jazz), a turtle (Floyd), and 2 fish.
I tend to like more rock and roll, although I also like jazz and some pop. I'm not a fan of country music.
I'm Ghost, but some here on the forum call me by my real name which is Sandy. There are also a few that refer to me as "the flamin' liberal".
I was recruited to this gang by JR (Jeremy) about 4 years ago. He found me over on Myspace back in the day when he was actively looking for new members to join FFR. He told me about this cool internet radio station and invited me to drop by and listen. Been here ever since.
I live in Saginaw, MI and work for our school district. Currently, I'm on an unpaid leave of absence and may not be returning to my job. Doesn't really break my heart any if I can't go back.
I'm an active video gamer; the Halo series on Xbox and Guitar Hero/Rock Band on the Playstation2 are my favorite games. When not gaming, I'm an avid reader. I don't watch much tv but I do enjoy movies. I'm not a fan of sports but I do enjoy watching college football. Nebraska and MI State are my teams.
A piece of paper says I'm married. I have two daughters; 20 & 17. They keep me young.
I have a wide range of taste in music; I'll listen to anything from Classical right on through to Rap/Hip Hop, but I absolutely hate Country music! My favorite genre is Metal/Hard Rock. I'm a huge fan of JD's Sunday night show, Underground 80s!!
And like Web, I enjoy throwing JR under the bus. Problem is, it's usually under the special bus that I ride every day.
