My name is Kevin, and I am so privelaged to join such a great place, filled with such great people! I feel so thrilled to be part of a community that cares so much for one another, and to follow the works of such a great man. I became truly interested in seeing mr. Fry's documentary of bi-polar disorder. It was so truly painful to watch, both his own journey through his sufferings as well as others. I watched at work (shame on me!) and people wondered why i was misty-eyed. I myself suffer quite severe depression, have for many many years, and could relate to so much that I nearly stopped the showing early. It was hard to continue and feel such strong emotions... But well worth the turmoil. I hope to be able to bond with the community, and contribute my own thoughts, feelings and opinions when i can. Hopefully I can make a few friends along the way!

I have just joined the forum, so I suppose I should introduce myself. I'm a 25-year-old biologist, currently working on my PhD on evolutionary genetics. I like reading and learning new things and skills - our world is filled with interesting curiosities to explore! I first got interested in Stephen Fry's work when I stumbled upon some QI clips. I like his way of thinking and presenting his thoughts. Before I even knew about his enthusiasm over Oscar Wilde (who I also adore), I thought that Fry is definitely the Wilde of this century - a true intellectual and an inspiration. Have a happy autumn, people!

How rude. Hi, I'm Jananals. I'm at Uni in Tasmania, hoping one day to be a neuroscientific researcher. I enjoy knowing stuff about things. Hence, QI is well and truely my poison. But I also love Kingdom, Jeeves and Wooster, Blackadder, Last Chance to see, and all other Stephen Fry related entertainment. I feel kinda barge-inesque posting already. If anyone agrees, please tell me to calm the fudgcicles down. I wanna meet awesome people, not annoy them. <img src="http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif" title=":-)" class="bb_smilies" /> Kay114 on "The new and improved, stickied INTRODUCTIONS thread." http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/the-new-and-improved-stickied-introductions-thread/page/105#post-288183 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 19:22:07 +0000 Kay114 288183@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <img src="http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_confused.gif" title=":?" class="bb_smilies" /> Did somebody mention greenhorns were welcome? This all seems different from Mr. Fry on "Jeeves and Wooster, " but I'll give it a shot. Btw, does anybody have the desk clock PBS is selling that uses his voice as an alarm and what would your consumer report be?

I thought I was the only person in the universe who felt that way. My English secondary & tertiary education inflicted a series of Hardy novels on me (Mayor of Casterbridge, Return of the Native, Tess and Jude). I cringe as I recall the tragedy hinging on finding a piece of paper on a path (Return) and the absolute wearisome blackness of Jude. Anyway, looking forward to catching up with some news about Stephen Fry and to communicate with others who enjoy sharing this world with him.

I live in the NYC area. Until recently, I never heard of Mr. Fry. I have been watching some of his stuff on youtube, and can't get enough.
