Striker6 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 There are so many topics like these, i'm getting sick of them. I think there needs to be a sticky of getting to know your fellow tipiters because all I see now are: What's your first name? How old are you? Where do you live? What's your middle name? It's getting really annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
