    My two thousand five hundred and someod post contest!

    Hey Guys and gals of cointalk! So there has been much knowledge being shared throughout this forum, lots of it directed towards newbies to collecting. Since I am only into the hobby 2.5 years, I am still learning a lot from you guys Click here to enlarge
    So here's another contest by yours truly, ME!
    This is a bit of a contest to get you all to know me and a bit of coin trivia and other trivia.

    Honestly, this poem is the only one that I enjoyed enough to go through and analyze the meaning and I got a lot of deep thoughts about it.
