I'm a little late to the game but I very much enjoyed learning the biography of one of our own. Especially love the old pics. Nice to meet you Snugs!

Will this be a feature in the future? It's quite interesting to learn about others here, puts a more human face on the name.

Hi, ozarkgirl - thought I'd respond to your question even though it wasn't addressed to me. :)

Two other hostesses (Mama_Bear and daisyscarlett) and I *built* the Finest on profiles of freepers almost four years ago! :) We just haven't done many in the last couple of years, so it was so nice to see another Fine Freeper featured today.

Yesterday I posted the Quarterly Hall of Fame thread for all the threads we've posted since June 24, 2002. :) The first year to year and a half were mostly profiles of freepers.

Finding the great people here who are popular & yet willing to share their information openly, provide answers /pix in a timely way.. well, not easy. Many don't even respond to a FReepMail inquiry..not even a response. That is not a good sign.. lol!

I have done a few mini bios when I did threads for others.. like when I did GretchenM & the chairs moving & when I do Chris Davis (writer33), I have a mini bio. But these are more or less "introductions" rather than in depth profiles.

When I read something I always like to know a little bit about the person. Before I start any book, I do the bio on the book jacket & now w/Internet read more where available. Before I go to most movies, I do the background on the director, screenwriter if I am not already familiar with them

Many people at FR for various reasons are very protective of their identity & "situations" and each has their reasons.

the hostess/host here at the Finest for the most part have the choice of what they would like to post, highlight. Each of us has our interest areas to work with.

It will be much like the Singles thread where each team can focus on what they want to stimulate conversation & get the ball rolling
