Introduce Yerselves

So now that I've posted, I may as well continue...

Here, I'm bLuE oRdEr; in real life (i.e., the place I spend less time at), I'm Rick. Same age as the band. Degrees in Film & Television Production, Humanities with an emphasis in Ecological Studies, and something else, but can't remember. Currently working to graduate from law school by December, with a J.D. and a Certificate in Environmental Law.

Still single, although while I was on the phone with my best friend this morning, she said that "my type" just passed her by-- "borderline schizophrenic and recovering heroin addict." Maybe this time it will work!

My all-time favorite bands always seem to be, in no particular order, The Clash, The Ramones, The Cure, The Smiths, Depeche Mode...and New Order.

....and here comes me !!!

I'm 37 with wife n child (13), first got into the boys in about 84 (football hooligan rather than spotty student type), fell out of love with them in the early 90's and then rekindled the love affair a couple of years ago when i discovered this site.

I've managed to indoctrinate my child with a love of NO (as the Finsbree posse will attest) , but as a quid pro quo i've had to suffer SCULB & Busted strutting their stuff.

Zdravo, Maja

Well, that's all the Serbian I can muster for now. I've been ---> through ---> Belgrade, stayed in Nis in December 2002 (The photo in my profile is from my time in Nis).

ZDRAVO!!!! Did you like your staying in Nis? I have some friends in Nis but Belgrade is prettier than Nis. I hope you'll visit Belgrade someday.

:D Check yer email

BTW - where's your introduction for the newbies that havnae heard from you, do you want me to do it?

Muffster 47 from Scotland, 5ft 2", Grey hair and has a fondness for tank tops and chino's

Er, you're supposed to describe me ya numpty! No yersel!!

i'm christy, but my students (i teach high school international relations and world history) call me ms. wood (or some imaginative expletive behind my back) and my university friends do, indeed, call me agent wood. long story.

i've lived here and there (boston, new york, london, scotland, thailand, israel), but i grew up in a small town in colorado not unlike south park. only the people in my town were weirder. i now teach and have no life in orlando, although i recently acquired digital cable, which made me happy.

i've been a fan of new order since 1987, and of JD since 1989. i'm also fond of blur, the chemical brothers, the strokes, marvin gaye, the verve, the clash, and earth, wind & fire, amongst others; i have a real soft spot for dolly parton, which surprises many people.

i love chocolate, good cinema, cats, the mountains, kurt vonnegut, and anything middle eastern or british (except for blood pudding and jim davidson). i despise spiders, deep water, mathematics, and dan rather; poor spelling makes me physically ill.

oh, and i'm not gay. but if i were i'd fancy angelina jolie or scarlett johanssen.

Hi folks, I'm Mark and I'm 34, married with two young lads. Been into the Order since 1985 and have seen them 8 times since Birmingham 1986. Also a big JD fan.

I'm an IT consultant (SAP) and my other musical faves are Pixies, Manics, Orbital and I was into the Madchester thingie with personal faves being New Fast Automatic Daffodils.

Great bunch of people on here and I hope to meet up with a few at the next gig (where and when )

Originally posted by AgentWood i'm christy, but my students (i teach high school international relations and world history) call me ms. wood (or some imaginative expletive behind my back).

I teach too (but 5th grade), but I don't even want to think what they call me behind my back. I'm in that "being a witch mode at the beginning of the year" phase currently.

I'm Michelle or bunny. I go by bunny on message boards everywhere else, so it was logical it would carry over here. I'm 30 and I've been a fan of NO since 86/87 (it's all a blur, but it was 7th grade, I know that) thanks to my brother introducing me to them.

I listen to a variety of music, but it's not a passion of mine so I don't buy CD's like mad. I'm a huge film/movie fan. I enjoy graphic art for fun, drawing, photography, and reading... just to name a few things.

I have three cats (even though my apt only allows two) named Marty, Toto, and Eowyn ("Wynnie"). I also have a load of fish and two walking sticks (the insect, not the cane). I'm a bit of a computer geek. Enough so that I have two. And my Palm is synced to both of them. In fact, my laptop and Palm are actually additional appendages.

I also come with a gift... New Order wallpaper , feel free to use. (And ignore the extra picture of Gillian... I needed something to fill the space and I liked that it was a bit blurry and I've always loved the fact that there was a girl around.)

S'pose it's bout time I explained myself...

I am Trevor, AKA the legendary, god-like Taboo #7. Many are the tales of my deeds on Earth and in Space, time-traveling as I often do in search of the perfect recipe for my world-famous Sausage Balls :evil:

In all seriousness, I'm a very silly person, and after the first month or so I rarely posted anything related to JD/NO, looking at this site as more of a way to meet chicks and score some reefer. I have been unsuccessful on both counts.

I live and work in a town not far from where current Dem VP (and future pres in '08, if that asshole Bush wins) John Edwards was born but not raised. I unfortunately have been raised here, and my views on how the Jews and Negroes control the World Bank while the Muslims are in league with Satan may offend some, but I'm just a product of my time.

I'm almost 25, but feel like I'm fifty. It's hard for me to relate to the kids of today: all talk of Debbie Gibson and Alf is lost on them. I work at a shitty grocery store, which may actually be a front for the international military-industrial-Carrot Top complex. Why else would the disgraced prop comic suddenly be on TV again, if not to distract us from the Bush Administration's war in Iraq?

I'm hoping to get off the ground as a writer, mining my personal traumas for profit and embarassment. If that fails, I always thought being a daredevil was a good fallback, or Harvard.

I love the Order, the Division, Beatles Inc., the Sexual Pistolles, Monty and his enormous Python, Those New Kids In The Tom T. Hall, Saturday Night Dead (The Belushi who Isn't Jim Era), Mozza and the Joneses, REMetrosexual, The Clash Kids, Jonathan Richman Poorman, and many others whose names escape me right now.

I feel like that last paragraph was too Huntsman/Rocket Mick-esque, but give the people what they want.

I hope to become a famous writer, or a famous has-been

Did I mention I'm Southern?

A vote for Bush is a vote for the Dick Cheney Travelling Heart Attack and Liberal-Bashing AllStar Tour

Hello my name is Jeff and I would like to take the time to say hello to all. I live in the states, Florida to be specific. I've been on the Order's trail since 1984. I started producing my own material at any early age and that led me to the path of becoming a DJ. I'm an old cuss now and work in the corporate world. I still produce and keep track of the order as best I can. This site is wonderful and I never knew it was here. I've done many searches on the factory and NO, but this site never came up until recently. I glad to have found this and I can see I'm in good company.

Florida was not the place to hear good imported music. We get a heavy dose of Classic Rock here. Don't get me wrong, it has it's place, but no diversity. Being a DJ back in the day, I had connections for the imports. Stumbled across a NO 12" and never looked back since. The music I started producing before I heard NO had the same feel of NO. That has always kept me close to the band.

Well, I hope to have many more interesting things to read in the future and it was a pleasure meeting all of you. Oh, does anyone know where I can get a copy of Substance Abuse 1994, they don't sell that here in the states?

whoa, you're talking to someone who has a crush on gareth from 'the office' here. who gives two shits whether you look like marty feldman or herve villechaise, anyway?

plus, how do you know that i'm not the butt-ugly one?

I'm ugly spiritually

Just trust me on that

Anyway, I sent an e-mail to you explaining the car situation (how I very rarely have one unless it's to go to work or make a "soda run"). Did you get that? Apologies that we weren't able to meet up (I only would have disappointed you anyway)

didn't get the e-mail (unless it went to my junk folder--set to exclusive--and i inadvertently deleted it). shame, 'cause i'd have been more than happy to come and pick you up!

as for being disappointed, don't be so down on yourself, dear! i hardly think that would have been the case.

Well, the real tragedy is that we won't be able to make a baby this year

Red flag for that one, Spotty

Are you suggesting Herve came up short in the looks department?

On a side note:

Does anyone have a copy of Substance Abuse 1994? Please contact me if you do. Thanks.

You forgot the drum roll :D

Anyway, let's let this thread get back to introducing folks....like my imaginary girlfriend Denise, who died in a tragic ice-sculpture accident

Originally posted by blah I am in the last week of my job as a manager at Target, and am looking for employment as a teacher, in the history field if I'm lucky...I can teach geograpy, economics, and political science as well...

Congratulations on the career move...

...but aren't your fields of expertise more in the areas of beer, football, porn, Kettering, and of course, New Order?

Zdravo, Maja

Well, that's all the Serbian I can muster for now. I've been ---> through ---> Belgrade, stayed in Nis in December 2002 (The photo in my profile is from my time in Nis).

ZDRAVO!!!! Did you like your staying in Nis? I have some friends in Nis but Belgrade is prettier than Nis. I hope you'll visit Belgrade someday.

I loved my stay in Nis. I also was fortunate enough to spend a week at Kopaonik. When I return to Serbia (someday), I am looking forward to seeing Belgrade.
