I'm pushing 35, I dropped out of college twice and I like fat girls. I come from a family of doctors, lawyers and teachers. I had an endless mountain of imformation coming in as a kid and since I'm hyperactive and a bit bipolar, I had a hard time in college. Not that I didn't learn anything, I just got bored easily. I chose to be a professional painter and artist, because I get to work outside and I get to pretend to be my own boss.
Well heck, that was the only part of the profile which wasn't boring!!
Ok, I'll play along. I'm a prodigal child, slightly ADD enhanced, with a tendency to be good at almost everything I try. A jack of all trades and master of nothing. A perpetual student of the universe, grower of understanding, mythmaker, difficult wizard, dreamer of dreams, the bell ringer and winsome one.
Isn't that how we all are? At least to some degree? Unless you're talking about those that choose never to move forward, they choose to be ignorant and some can't help it.
Hey! That's what I was gonna say! Except I've also been a pirate, (not really but I can't really say smuggler on HP) done all sorts of dangerous things, including piloting a fully aerobatic Russian airplane, parakiting (got the torn ACL to prove it) and the most dangerous and scariest of all, married and owned two wives! (not at the same time)
I think it would be funner to create profiles for each other.
That's a great idea, sort of a "roast" profiling. Should be funny and take the heat off some of these discussions. Start a thread.
It actually works. I started a thread years ago on a forum with the title, "Flame Me" and proceeded to explain in the OP for anyone who wished to say their absolute worst about me. And, they did. It was similar to one of those Hollywood roasts and soon turned into a complete laugh fest.
Eexxxxxcellent. It should be fun. As a newbie wanting to participate, that calls for some stalkin. I better get busy.

I wanted to know of a place where I could find clients who needed websites created from scratch. All the freelance sites just have jobs for tweaking current websites. I'm a professional when it comes to creating sites from scratch. I'm creating a sample now for any of you to check out and once its...

OK, I'm not fishing for any compliments here but I changed my profile pic. I really liked the one I had which I think looked more professional but due to the fact that I am going through a midlife crisis. I changed the pic to what I think is a newer, hopefully (haha) younger looking version of me...

I have a very quick announcement today. We are retiring profile background photos soon (the images and themes you can set to appear as the background to your HubPages profile page).This is a feature that is relatively infrequently used.

Perhaps long term experienced hubbers can help with this. HP allows me to choose six hubs that will rotate at the top of my profile. Which should I choose?The oldest? the newest? The most popular based on number of views.? The least popular? The ones declining? The ones with the up...

I'm considering changing my profile picture because I want to be more professional but I don't know. What are your thoughts? I know many people have changed their pictures to resemble what their hubs are and I want to make sure my readers and fans know clearly what I write about most often and what...
