Name: Lynette (AKA Honniegal)
Location: Northern NJ, that whole suburb of NYC that is totally not as cool as NYC, but we're like the likeable side-kick.
Birthday (sign?): 3/23 a Fiery Aries
Age: a number, in my case one that is quickly approaching an increase in 9 days...so for now, 31.
Sex: yes, Gender: Female
Occupation(s): 9-5 marketing risk management corporate lackey [pays the bills]; former English professor; always and forever a writer)
Favorite Food(s): daifuki
Favorite Color(s): frost
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow?
Wing speed? don't you mean air-speed? African or European? In case you are a dork like me: https://www.style.org/unladenswallow/
Toys: 2010 Honda Fury, a hoop and some, ahem
, other unmentionables 
Hobbies other than the obvious: riding (motorcycles), writing, Hot Air Ballooning, games (card/board), drink mixologist
Education: MA in English, Rhetoric and Composition
Favorite Book(s): yeah, I am going to follow up that big degree with Harry Potter (books 4 and 7 being my favorite) and Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire Mysteries. My classic lit choices are The Old Man and the Sea and most anything by Poe
Favorite Movie(s): Tomb Raider (don't know why I can watch it a million times, maybe Jolie is like totally hot in it) and I really like dumb comedies like Ace Ventura and Half Baked.
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why? Star Destroyer, because size matters.
Favorite TV show(s): I was a hard-core LOSTie, but now I like Sons of Anarchy, Spartacus, Bones, House, and Intervention. The DVR is the ultimate accessory because commercials ruin a show and I don't have time to waste.
Plans for life in general: My current goals are to live more in the now, a battle to the death with procrastination. I am looking to get over my fears, so far have dealt with commitment, motorcycles, planes, high places, spiders. When I grow up I want to have the least amount of regret as I can manage, and if I can do something about it now, I will.
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: Social Distortion, Elvis, Daft Punk, Toby Keith, Pink, Cage The Elephant, Paul Oakenfold, Eminem, Dropkick Murphys, Steve Miller Band, Armin van Buuren, Hendrix, Tom Petty - I am a musical mutt.
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? Impossible.
Favorite ice cream flavor(s): Chunky Monkey
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* Nutella is the cream of the Gods.

When people ask me how many tattoos I have, I usually say 1, but I have to measure in square meters.

Welcome to the HoP!
If you're interested, there has been some talk of a Central Park meetup in the coming nicer months, most likely on the weekends.
P.S. Battling with procrastination is a long and arduous battle. I suggest putting it off until later... Ach! He got me again!

POE!!
I am sad that you do not appreciate the One True Spread (tm) that will save us from the squirrel hordes.
It is entirely possible that I am short of sleep, but welcome anyway.

Sad? Oh why? I am a pusher, you know, a dealer, a connection, a supplier, peddler, trafficker, source....I give it to kids near playgrounds, near schools. I am the candy-(wo)man.
No, really. I used to import the real German-made Nutella for peeps; it is a little different than the "stepped-on" NJ-kind(just as addictive).
When I say cream of Gods, I mean just that - it don't get more heavenly than a Nutella/Bananna combo.

not according to The Book, which, if I am not mistaken said:
God created Vegimite, and realized she could do better. So she created Marmite and said "eh, I still could do better," then chucked out both in favor of chocolate and hazelnut butter. THIS, she said, is truly divine.
Angles sung and the rapture was on.

EDIT_REASON: chocolate for the win, God must be a woman

Shh...it is Italian. We joke in my family it is German because we have been using it since my Aunt sent us some from Germany in the late 60s. They have a slightly modified recipe (without the whey) and we hear they use Bavarian Hazelnuts instead of the Italian ones.
On a side note, do you know they give away a case of Nutella a month at the US site? https://www.nutellausa.com/giveaway.htm
