Probably for me it was G.I. Joes when I was really little or CDs/music when I was a pre-teen. Those were my favorite things to get for Christmas and my birthday. Around age 12 I became really into music and that lasted until the end of high school. Once it became easy to get it for free online, I actually kind of became more of a passive listener...I never really thought of it before. Maybe I liked the thrill of the chase for obscure stuff in record stores. I was never into video games throughout my whole life.
APBM,
What's something all the other kids loved as a gift / hobby / pastime that you found rather dull or annoying?

My siblings loved team sports, [softball team, swim team, etc.] whereas I only participated in them under duress. To this day, I'd rather do my yoga or all-too-infrequent cycling by myself. I just plain don't enjoy fitness stuff at all unless it's in relative solitude.

Who or what was your first post on Legion World about?

It was in Gary's L.E.G.I.O.N. thread, and I was asking if it was okay if I posted reviews of L.E.G.I.O.N. re-reads. I got friendly replies and warm welcomes, and realized right away what a special place this is.
I was using a Cos avatar at that point, because Cos is my favorite Legionnaire. It's a little embarrassing to see how I was posting then.

It was either a thread in response to welcoming me to Legion World in which I also said hi to several posters I hadn't talked to in months (the LMB: Lash, Cru, Pov, etc.) *or* it may have been a post inside SHAKES which was where everyone was posting. The SHAKES post ironically was where none of the posters I knew were posting and so I "accidentally" ended up meeting several other great posters just about right away: Semi, Vee, Arachne, FC, Abin, Harbinger and Icefyre. I also remember asking about what happened to Space Tart where Lash classically told me "Oh Cobie, we're so sorry, she died"...classic in-character LMB hellos after over a year of not talking to one another.
APBM,

I can't remember either. It was almost 7 years ago. I'm lucky if I remember what I said yesterday.

Excluding my parents of course... My Aunt Doreen. During a period of difficult times, she helped me out a lot. Nothing big, but hundreds of little things.

Two. My personal Gmail account and my work e-mail, which I use for professional purposes. I have a few others, but I rarely use them.

Three. One for general stuff, one for political mailings, and one for fan-related stuff like the LMB.
