Best spinning moment:
Oddly, my best spinning moment isn't of fire...One of the first few times we held poi meets in Tampa, all of us were out at the beach. There was about 6 or 7 of us. We all had a pair of glowstix cracked and we were all spinning. We only had enough pairs of stix so that one person couldn't spin. When it was my turn to give up my stix, I took a few steps back to look at my friends. I must say it was awe inspiring to see my friends all twirling the night away, different colors of light painting across the night sky. Funny that I wasn't even spinning, but I will always cherish this moment.

I hate bumping my own thread, but as many people probably don't know me now. I figured it would be appropriate to bump it back up to the top as a re-introduction.
I did edit the content to update it.. (=

So to reintroduce myself to you, I'm the spinner formerly known as MikeGinny... then Lightning. And then I graduated medical school, so the "Doc" had to be thrown on it.

Glad to be "reintroduced"
I really don't use this CRD name anywhere other than here.. I thought about changing it to the newer nickname I've used the last several years. But it just didn't feel right to me changing my name after developing a history here. You changed your nickname some time ago right?

Nice to meet you pounce. Thanks for the welcome back NYC & PK. It's great to see some 'oldies' still floating around. hehe
As crazy as it sounds.. The Senior Forum is what caught my attention. Working with the Internet as a career, I've stopped by here and there. This time, seeing the Senior Forum had me curious who was still here from my era. So I clicked, and the rest is history. hehe
Now that I'm back, I plan on being a regular visitor again. HOP is what it is due to the members. I look forward to doing my part and adding to the community once again.
