Making a success of myself (before FTR) without having a college degree. I'm very fortunate to have been gifted with some talent and got to the peak of my chosen creative profession. I'm not bragging... proper education is a good thing for most people. I'm just very lucky that I was able to do it without college, as I hated school. If it weren't for my skills, I'm not sure how far I could have gotten on pure ambition alone. The best part is having made my parents proud, after having disappointed them by choosing not to go down the usual route.

Who was the one that got away?
I don't believe I've met that one true love yet. Not sure I even believe in the notion of "that one." However, there was one girl that was special to me and with whom I had been friends with for many years after we ended our romantic relationship. She was the one that committed suicide years ago. Some of you FTR veterans may remember my having mentioned that here a couple years ago in response to the troll who made up a sob story about his friend's suicide to solicit money. Of course, one could argue that she is more special to me now that she is gone than when she was alive, but I can't deny my fond memories of her.

How long do you think FTR as a website will exist (in a similar or increased capacity compared to today)?
I'm optimistic that FTR will be around as long as Americans are playing poker. In what capacity depends wholly on how the legality of online gaming in the U.S. pans out.
