Actually introducing myself...
Hey guys, been here for a couple months but I figure I'd say hello officially...
I am big Dune fan, and have been since I read the book a couple years ago. I will be honest right off the bat- I feel like KJA and BH are taking Frank Herbert's creation and dragging it through the mud with nothing but money in mind. KJA is a twat!
Ahem, anyway...I am friends with Trang and Apjak in real life (and yes, they're as ugly as the pictures they post would suggest). I work as a Field Supervisor for a security company based out of Kansas City, MO...the same one that Trang and Apjak used to work for.
I plan to stop by now and again for good opinions and good laughs...see ya.

Welcome Smug. About time you finally introduce yourself. Grab your hooks, hang on tight, and enjoy the ride. Look forward to getting to know you better.
Well you've already seen what most of us are like so....Welcome friend. Welcome.

Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

Hey! Have we ever had an explanation of your user name? OK to ask for one?

The Etymology of the "Smugetsu" handle is long and varied enough to be legend by now. For a long time he was known as Smurl. Then there was Smuget, like Nougat. 生む月 sounded cool even though it is nonsense, esp. as a name.

Welcome - oooo RL Dune buddies. I saw someone join from Calgary a little while ago, can't remember who now, was somewhat hoping that would be someone I could meet one day. The only other Dune fan within a couple hours of me is the beastweshallnotnameinreddeermostunholyofplaces.
