Hello, my name is Oinkers! If you are here than you must want to know more about me, who is the pig behind the web site? Well, read below and find out for yourself! Incidentally, I have updated this, again, so everything should be current!

To begin with I live with Charlie, who I have lived with for.... well, lots of years. Charlie went and got married to this girl, who I call "The-Short-One", about seven years ago, and after that things changed. For one thing we moved into an apartment in a big town (back in Iowa where I'm from), then The-Short-One had a bunch of weird friends who were always poking at me, not to mention Charlie was always busy. Though to be honest, I had been living in a basement for a while, though The-Short-One's housekeeping is reminiscent of a basement... The biggest change, though, was meeting all of my new "friends" who lived with The-Short-One.

Well, then in 2000 Charlie and the-Short-One decided to move to Missouri. So we all packed our belongings and moved to a small white house in a small town. While we were living there I discovered the Internet and began this website! I liked Missouri a lot, but I missed my best friend Bubbles, a small purple bear, who still lived in Iowa with The-Short-One's mommy and The-Slobby-Brother-Like-Person. Bubbles and I wrote lots of letters, and of course we visited each other a lot. Now they have moved to Missouri, so Bubbles and I get to see each other all of the time. They lived with us for awhile, while Bubbles's Mommy and The-Scruffy-Guy lived in Buffalo with The-Slobby-Brother-Like-Person, but The-Scruffy-Guy is gone now, so they are now living next door to us! It is great because we get to see each other every day, in fact we are in some clubs together, and he is even on my baseball team!

I have many hobbies! My favorite is drawing, whether on the computer or off. I usually use Paint Shop Pro 9, and highly recommend it to all who enjoy computer graphics. I also write plays, which I usually produce, direct and star in as well! I like organizing things, and a great deal of my time is spent fighting the alien menace (for more on that see About Aliens). When I have time I make lots of free downloads, from Websets to MySpace layouts to graphics to paper dolls, and all of them are here on my website!

The house we live in now is actually an apartment in a small building (there are six other apartments) next to a large highway. The two best features of this place are the giant deck and the cow pond next door. We all have a lot of fun playing in and around the cow pond, and we hold circuses and bar-b-ques and parties on the deck. The-Short-One is talking about moving, but she is always doing that, so I am not too concerned, especially now that her brother and mother (Bubbles's Mommy and The-Short-One's Mommy are the same person) are next door. Her big plan was to move to apartment A, because it was rumored to be bigger, but they finally got to look at it and it’s not any bigger, just divided up differently, so they decided to stay where we were!

Now that The Iowa bears have moved next door, lots of things are happening, so be sure and read my entries every two weeks or so!
