So I turn 22 tonight at midnight, and man do I feel old lol. And while some of my friends think I'm too old for computer games, they just don't understand the magic of StarCraft! I've been on and off of SC since it first came out, but I really got into it the last 2-3 years, and I realize now it is thanks to Team Liquid!

You guys here are a fantastic community, and have helped feed my hunger for more SC information and entertainment on a daily basis. From News Articles to Liquibetting, every aspect of TL has provided a wonderful browsing opportunity for me. Thanks to TL, I've managed to get a number of my friends as in love with SC as I am, and its always nice to have friendly opponents.

Next year I'll be moving on to graduate school for a PhD, and even though I'll be super busy, I'll always be making time for StarCraft and you guys. Hopefully too, I'll have a much more successful attempt at creating a CSL team...lol

So thanks again Team Liquid, you guys here are an endless source of information and fun! I only hope I can some how give back a fraction of what you've given me. So tonight as a hit the bars with the roommates, first toasts will be going out to you Team Liquid, thanks for everything!
