Well, I've been going out with my girlfrined for almost nine months now. On a few occasions I've discussed the patch of facial hair which I have been maintaing for some 2 years now with her.

She has told me that under no accounts am I to shave my beard. Well, today I had a haircut and this is the result.

Your thoughts?

Well, here we are, 5pm on a Friday evening, just about to sign out from the office for the weekend and it just doesn't feel like summer.

I'm ready to play probaly my 10th game this year for Cookley, when usually by this time of year I've played about 20-25. The weather and other circumstances have conspired against me. Maybe I'll get to play two of them this weekend, if the weather holds, but lets just wait and see how it goes.

If there are injuries, pictures will follow, but if there are run scoring plays, much joy and reports will follow.

See you Tomorrow.

Well, I've reached another milestone in my pursuit of statwhore's nirvana. I have now reached 28,000 B/P points.

This means that there is only a few thousand B/P points between me and the last B/P milestone of Supreme Commander (or EGSC for all you diehards, who revere the old ranks :P)

The addition of this should hopefully coincide neatly with me reaching 10,000 Posts and readying myself for gfoxcook's final final update of the 2x10k pentalist. I believe I could be the 13th member of the 4 x 10k list, maybe eve the 12th if I get a shift on with my posting :)

Oh well, back to the grind, I suppose

If you've just stumbled in here by accident and don't want to know who I am, then why the hell did you come in here? The exit is that way *points to the BACK button on your browser*

If you did want to know who I am, here's your chance to get a closer look at the man behind Coop83. Firstly, you can call me Coop, I really don't mind about the 83 part, that's just the year I was born. I'm 24 and I work as a customer relations supervisor for a housing developer. My day-to-day job involves writing letters to customers, fielding phone calls from customers and harassing builders. In between doing all of this, I try to maintain my sanity while on the NG BBS and Flash Portal. I enjoy writing reviews for flash and getting responses (Though I'm not sure that feature works any more)

If you're a flash author and you're looking for inspiration, look no further. I have various works in progress at this very moment for potential flash movies, I just need someone who can animate, because lets face it, I'm never going to be much of an artist, I just don't have the patience for it.

I'm working on a story at the moment, which someday I'd love to see published, allowing me to retire and make my fortune for doing something I enjoy more than the vast majority of my life at present :)

Other than NG, I do enjoy cricket, as patrons of the English Gentleman's Club will note. I'm not the best cricketer in the worls, but I do enjoy playing and I think I am improving, slowly.

I've got myself a steady girlfriend (sorry ladies :P) who you lot might know as EchoRun on here, if ever she gets around to posting on here again.

I'd say that there are more things to life than computers, but considering that I counted each and every hour of the update, I'd say that it would have to be a lie.

As you can see from the picture below, one of my major hobbies is growing facial hair. This picture was taken after I'd gone from a full goatee to my current style a few years ago. Someone said to me "You missed a bit", hence the look on my face.

Wow, I mnever knew how much I'd miss newgrounds! It's been off the net for about 32-33 hours and boy was that a long time. I'm just going to enjoy my new stats now and bask in the glory of it all :)
