Don't feel inferior and I won't mention who Smith is due to the fact that anybody can read this but ask one of the blog buddies to tell you in person. I haven't been posting much. I have got to check my grades.

wow i feel rather inferior being that i believe I am the youngest memer of the SHAMAN GANgSteRs ( 15 as of 11/2)
and I don't think i could ever think of something as clever as a name like the SHAMAN GANgSteRs, an animal mental and physical feature, and I am not a web master. I want to think of something to make this crazy good.
Thanks so much for including me on the name and on the animal attribute thing. Smith... I do not think i know you and i won't feel right posting here until i know who you are i'd say that you're nurtering skinng sleek and you'll be biting when you need to be but other then that i hhave no clue who you are. Maybe i do and i don't know it.

I thought of a name for us.
SHAMAN GANgSteRs (Smith, Hannah, Almeda, Melissa, Aaron, Neil, Gabe, Alison, Nate, Sage, Ruairi).

sha·man ( P ) Pronunciation Key (shämn, sh-)
n.
A member of certain tribal societies who acts as a medium between the visible world and an invisible spirit world and who practices magic or sorcery for purposes of healing, divination, and control over natural events. Also acts as a guide between the human realm and the animal realm.

gang·ster ( P ) Pronunciation Key (gngstr)
n.
A member of an organized group of criminals; a racketeer.
A member of a gang of delinquents.

Perfect. This will put our animal aliases to use as well. SHAMAN GANgSteRs. It has a ring. It fits. I hope I'm right. Agree with me OR ELSE.
Also this would give us a chance to create a funky new layout that makes more sense. Not that I don't like the flames. I just would like to see a change, considering we have three or four webmasters and mistresses on board here.
I WIN! (i've been trying to develop a name since this started. Remember MANRASH?...yeah...)
I'm cool ^_^

Oy... I'll explain. Each has physical and mental aspects, and include stereotypes regarding the animals...

Smith: Wolf: Nurturing, biting when she needs to be; Sleek, skinny
Neil: Falcon: Kill you in 3 seconds flat when she needs to; Piercing eyes
Sage: Bear: Gentle and peace-loving, but not passive; Big and strong
'Meda: Cat: Cooly contemplative, likes to play, though, when no one's looking; Skinny and graceful
Hannah: Leopard: She pounces, eats dead ruminants; Sleek, smooth, graceful, fluid
Nate: Vulture: Hovers over everything, sees everything that goes on; very defined facial features
Melissa: Mouse: Meek, little; Little
Alison: Crane: She'll snap you up in half a second; Graceful and beautiful
Aaron: Honey bee: Hops around, spreading joy and pollen; always wears stripes (think about it!), has eyes like a bee!
Gabe: Rhinoceros: Humble, contemplative, powerful; Dunno... When I think of Gabe and a rhinoceros, they seem so similar physically :-/
Ryan: ?Lemur?: Hops around, literally, crawls, climbs, dances, jumps, full of energy; innocent and devious at the same time

A vulture!!! that's awsome is there any reason for this? DO i prey off of the weak? Ryan is the greatest!

Nurturing, take anyone under your wing (raised by wolves), and all things go with physical features, as well.

Er....why am I a wolf?

Leopard...sounds about right.
O yeah guyzes I'm back from the dead! (rather I stopped being lazy and decided to type here for once).
Oddly i've always had a favorite song. Generally the song I listen to over and over again changes with mood, but theres always been one song by Jamiroquai that I never seem to tire of. Entitled Alright. Its not well-liked but is has one of the wickedest bass lines on the planet. Makes me feel gooooood.
Life. The only thing constant in life is change, so i'll take it as it comes.
I wanna be real like the velveteen rabbit when I grow up. Ya know, have someone who loves me for a really long time and then i get all worn out and wrinkly, but it doesn't matter? Then when I die, I'll be reborn again as a springy rabbit!
I hope to die by freak accident so my death makes the newspapers and people who don't know me will know about me after I die and regale the story to their friends. Yo, did you hear about that lady? Yeahh she got her liver pecked out by some hawk! Something about stealing fire from the gods..
Homework for the group-look behind your sofa. Is there anything there? I found a stuffy nose from the dust. and a nickle.
