Hi Everybody,
Have followed the forum here for a while and never introduced myself or posted much. Guess now is as good a time as any to join the fun.
My name is Chris, I live in Iowa, which is good except for the fact that I have to drive to Chicago to see CC on tour; I'm actually going to my first-ever CC concert next month!
I will primarily be posting during the day on breaks at work, so I may not be the fastest responder, but I'm looking forward to interacting with you all. 8)

That's not dancing. That's coordinated spasms.

Just to forewarn you, you're probably going to get asked all sorts of interesting questions about your username. |

so should I just give the story out at once, or be mysterious and dole it out in small, tantalizing pieces?  It's not a very interesting story, the nickname came from a college choir tour birthday celebration gone awry. |

When you're in Chicago, make sure you stop & have some Portillo's! They're all over the place, so no excuses! |

well, see, my birthday's in march, almost always during spring break, and so they decided they had to have a cake to celebrate my birthday while we were on tour. Suffice it to say the cake didn't all end up in our stomachs.  Mark, I think it's time we let Chris off the hook.  |
