Mail from the Mochila....but in our case the computer!

Okay, well we all probably have it figured out that you like The Young Riders, or else I wouldn't think you'd be here. So, that's one thing we know about you. Here is the chance to get to know the other people out there who visit daily, weekly, monthly, or even come here and never want to come back! I am going to set up a system so that you can meet some of your fellow Young Riders, and even have a chance to maybe make some new friends. Hey, you gotta figure those people that sent letters through the Pony Express had em', so why shouldn't we in the computer century not?? So have fun pardner, and get out there and meet some folks!

Favorite Rider: Buck! Buck! Buck! (Can you tell it's Buck??)

Favorite Episode:Hmm.... episode? that's tough. I have to say Dead Ringer, Home of the Brave, Daddy's Girl, Pride and Prejudice and Requiem For A Hero.

Special interests or likes: Well, I'm a college student studying clinical psychology, so I'm positively fascinated by people. Living in NYC gives me plenty of opportunities to people watch (especially on the subway to and from school!) I'm in the very early stages of planning a wedding with my soon-to-be-official-fiance Mike, who I've been with for almost four years. (I use that phrase because he proposed to me, but we're both too broke to do anything about it yet! LOL) Hmm.. I love anything that has to do with pigs, penguins, cats, TYR (of course!!), and I have a very eclectic taste in music. Don't laugh -- I'm a DIE HARD Bee Gees and Jimmy Buffett fan (yes, I'm an official Parrothead!!!) I love all kinds of music from Big Band Swing (Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington) to Rock (Springsteen, Queensryche, Aerosmith) to Pop (Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC, Madonna) to Disco (KC & the Sunshine Band, Lipps Inc, Abba) and all the way down to Country (Shania Twain, Garth Brooks, Tricia Yearwood) just to name a few! Basically I'm just a really fun-loving gal -- I love nothing more than to have a giggle-fest with my friends or go grab a coffee and see a movie. I also value my quiet time, when I like to read (I love romance novels!) and write. I try to keep a very positive outlook on life and enjoy every minute of it!

Location: Boston, MA, but I go to school in CT.

Favorite Rider: I'm going to have to go with Lou here.

Favorite Episode: I guess I'm going to have to narrow it down, but "Goodnight Sweet Charlotte", "Blood Money", "Til' Death Do Us Part", and "Bad Blood".

Specific Interests of Likes: I love to write. I'm an English and Communications major, so I'm going to be doing lots of it in the near future. I'm in Glee Club in school and I do Public Relations for them and I love doing that. I like any kind of music, although I'm not horribly big on rap or R&B, so if you're a fan you're going to have to forgive me. My favorite show, besides TYR, of course, is The X-Files. I'm obsessed with Mulder and Scully just as much as I am with Lou and Jimmy. My favorite (respectable movie) is Gone With The Wind, but I have to admit that my actual fav. movie of all time is Bad Girls. I know it was horrible, but I just love it. I also collect postcards and I think that's it about me! =)

Favorite Rider: Kid & Lou, and Jimmy

Favorite Episode: It's been a long time since I've seen them, I don't remember the names, however I do like the ones where Jimmy is giving advice to Kid on how to treat her, and where Teaspoon finds out Lou is a girl. I also like the one where Lou and Kid "take the relationship to the next leavel" (although I think they should have waited until they were married)

Specific Interests or likes?

I *love* Highlander as well as Young Riders. I write HL/YR XOVERS. If you ask nicely I'll send you my stories. I am also a Christian. My fav. verse is 2Timothy 2:11-13. My fav singer is Carnan. Any other questions? E-mail me with Your bio in the subject line.

Favorite Rider: Well, I'll tell ya in the first season I fell in love with Jimmy. I read in an article that he was married. So then I fell in love with Cody and then also found out he was married. So then I realized it was between The Kid and Buck because Travis had a girlfriend. There was a romantic interest between The Kid and Lou, so when the show ended I was heartbroke that I wouldn't see Buck anymore. I wish I knew what he was doing today. I wish he would star in another western.

Favorite Episode: I haven't seen the show in years, but I loved them all. Well, except for the ones where the cute cowboys kissed girls. I don't know the titles of them all but I like the one where they were all learning to play baseball. I liked the funny episodes the best instead of the romantic ones. I have a lot of them on tape but I'm sure I don't have them all. I would like to have the ones that I don't on tape though.

Specific Interest Or Likes: My favorite western that I watch now is The Magnificent Seven. I like to paint ceramics, read, ride my bike, go to country artist concerts, and I like different types of music but my favorite type is country. I like Neal McCoy, Shania Twain, Alan Jackson, Bobby Bare, Alabama, Garth Brooks and Lila McCann who will be putting out a new album Mar. 23. I know because I work in a record store and I'll be the first one to purchase it that day at our store because we don't get much of a country crowd in our store. I love to chat so please e-mail me.

Favourite Rider: Oh, how can I ever choose? Jimmy and Lou are my favourites and I would have walked through fire to have seen some more J/L- eps! (sorry, K/L-fans!) But I also kind of liked Teaspoon (eventhough he's not a rider, I hope he counts anyway!) because of his funny, yet sometimes strange, love advices and his dry sarcastic comments. And I also love Noah, because he's so cute. And Rachel because she is a strong woman in a tough world. And well- the rest of the gang I just love because they are...The Young Riders!

Favourite Episode: I can't choose here either, sorry...so let it be a small selection: Blood of Others (with that special scene y'all know!), Good Night Sweet Charlotte, Spies, The Debt, Song of Isiah (NOT because of Rosemary Burke, whom I HATE from the bottom of my heart... but there are many cute close-ups of Josh Brolin...:)

Special Interests or Likes: TYR as you can see and "the God among actors" - Josh Brolin. The X-Files (mainly because of the cutiepie Alec Krycek!). Besides that, I totally devoted to the tv-series Anne of Green Gables and that show is the only one I have seen more than TYR! I have a dark site though; I love anything to do with vampires - Anne Rice's novels, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and all kinds of old vampire movies in black/white. I am also a huge fan of Shakespeare and the director/ actor Kenneth Branagh, who made Othello, Hamlet and Much Ado About Nothing. He is definitely one of my heroes! And yes, I do have a life besides TV, even though it doesn't sounds like it after this!! I love writing (mostly never-ending novels and tragic shortstories) and reading, cats, cooking (which I am extremely miserable at, sadly!), studying (I'm a history major), dancing, joggling, saving the world, and spending time with my friends. Well, I like most things in this world, except swimming, yaks! I love early 90's music (to me, Grunge is never dead!) But I like most music, eg. Blur, The Dubliners (great Irish folk songs!) Metallica (did you guys know that the drumplayer is Danish?) Madonna, Mozart, Morrison...And I could go on, but I won't! Just let me tell you, that there is this really great tv-show that I love, namely "The Young Riders"! Go watch it, guys!! You won't regret!!

Location: Baltimore, MD originally, but now Silver Spring, MD (not too far from Washington, DC)

Favorite Rider: Jimmy and Lou are probably tied in my mind

Favorite Episode: I can't pick just one, but my favorites are:
"Bad Blood" -- especially when the other riders learn Lou is a girl,
"Lady For A Night" -- the boys' reaction to Lou in that lacy pink dress,
"Ghosts" -- when Teaspoon gives Lou "a good old fashioned alley-oop!" and finds out she is a girl,
"The Blood of Others" -- what can I say? THE KISS!
"Blood Money" -- the boys' reaction to Lou in a saloon dress
"A Good Day To Die" -- Jimmy and Lou's "teamwork"
"Til Death Do Us Part" -- the wonderful montage in Part II when the army officer is singing "Aura Lee" and it goes back and forth between showing Lou & Kid on their wedding night, Teaspoon pacing in his office, and the other riders...just brings a tear to my eye!

Specific Interests or Likes: I love music, particularly classic rock like the Beatles, Doors, Rolling Stones, Neil Young, Pink Floyd. I also like Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Marley, Sting and The Police, Depeche Mode, Cure, and I love U2. I also consider myself a movie buff...I tape just about any movie that looks interesting on TV...And I especially like old movies and musicals. And of course, I love The Young Riders!

Favorite Riders: Jimmy and Lou

Favorite Episodes: Gosh there are so many to choose from. End of Innocence, Bulldog, Blood of Others, Bad Company, Ten Cent Hero, Requiem for a Hero, Pride and Prejudice, The Sacrifice, Then There Was One. It's been awhile though since I've seen most of the episode (like 10 years) so there may be more.

Special Interests: There are lots of those too. I like plants, fish, cats, reading (when I get time), writing, playing around on the internet, the outdoors, movies, Star Trek, and watching TYR of course. I'm currently a grad student at OU and thus have little time for stuff other than studying however.

Favorite Rider: You are asking me to condense down to one favorite rider? Yeah, like that is going to happen! I would definately pick The Kid of course because its TY MILLER, what can I say. He also is a real sweetheart for helping us out with our page. Of course you can't forget Lou either...it is kinda like the love and marriage thing...you can't have one without the other. Then there is Jimmy to complete the triangle, and who I might add is drop dead gorgeous! And the list continues! I'm not a good decision maker as one can tell!

Favorite Episode: The Sacrifice. It has some of the best Kid and Lou moments in it! That was the very first episode I ever saw, and it got me hooked from the beginning.

My interests (talents): No one could pick up on this over the internet, but I love mustard and eat it straight from the bottle. Okay, I think that is the only strange thing I do. I love music and have played the violin since I was 4. I LOVE Harry Connick Jr. (he puts me to sleep at night)...Anything else? Ummm...oh yes, this is my 5th year of college and I'll probably be finished by the time I'm 82.

Favorite Rider: Hmm...maybe it should read favorite riders, that'll make it easier on me! I really liked Lou, Kid, and Jimmy. However, I also had a huge crush on Don Franklin (And still do! *s*), so I liked Noah as well. Then again, I liked Ike because he was so gentle, and Buck too. Hmm... I guess the only people I didn't really care for were Cody and Jesse.

Favorite Episode: I liked Blood of Others, Goodnight, Sweet Charlotte, and basically any episode that had a Kid(Or Jimmy) and Lou moment.

Special interests or Likes: I *LOVE* to sing and dance. I also like to read the classics, such as Alexandre Dumas and Louisa May Alcott. I also enjoy reading non-fiction about the Irish, that being my background and all ;-). I don't really have any others because I'm a poor college student and either can't afford or don't have the time for anything else. My favorite music artists are Tina Turner, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, Sinead O'Connor, the Cranberries, and (I know it's sad) Bon Jovi. My favorite movies are The Outsiders, and anything with Gabriel Byrne. Hmm...well, I guess that's all there is to know about me, aren't you glad you read this now???? *LOL*

The best opera in the world is Turandot. My favorite movies are Star Wars, Psycho, The Truman Show, and so many others.

Favorite Rider: Jimmy and Buck. Don't ask me to chose because I couldn't!

Favorite Episode: Eek! I have to pick?! Oh gracious. Ok, I can narrow it down to two. The first is 'Color Blind' and the second is 'Ghosts.' I like color blind because you get to see Jimmy and Lou acting like a couple. Also 'Ghosts' because of how Teaspoon finds out Lou is a girl. The look on his face is priceless! =)

Specific interests or likes? I love to read, one of my favorite books is 'Phantom' by Susan Kay, and I love Dr. Seuss books. I collect Dr. Seuss books along with animal figurines. I also like to chat on the internet with people and recieve email. Not to mention my love of The Young Riders.

Favorite Rider: The Boss - irascible but lovable Teaspoon Hunter, after that as to riders Lou, Kid, Jimmy, Ike and I also like Emma.

Favorite Episode: The Kid, because it introduces all the characters, then Ghosts when Teaspoon's Real surprise to find out Lou is a girl and other episodes also!

Favorite Rider: Jimmy, Buck, and Kid and Lou! (ok...so that's 4 ;)

Favorite Episode: "Speak No Evil," "Bad Blood," "A Good Day to Die," "The Sacrifice" (such a good ep!!!), and I just adore the scene where Teaspoon finds out Lou's a girl in "Ghosts"!!! Ok, so it's a list... but at least it's in some order. But that's not very fair either, because I haven't seen the rest of the eps in so long (like many from seasons 2 and 3), I may want to change my mind! :)

Special interests: Jimmy and Lou ;) (ok, I know I'm causing trouble byadvertising that!) I'm especially fond of movies, my favorites being Gone With the Wind and Star Wars. The last great movie I saw was LA Confidential. I also like movie soundtracks (instrumental), but I don't really consider myself into "classical" music. Speaking of music, right now I'm into Loreena McKennitt, I really like the City of Angels soundtrack, I'm a devoted U2 fan, and I like the classics (Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Beatles). I have one cat, whom I adore and spoil like the world. I also enjoy plants and flowers, especially irises.

Favorite Episode: Is all of them an acceptable answer? (I can almost hear Kirsten scolding me, okay okay!) I'll narrow it to Good Night Sweet Charlotte, and The Blood of Others, and A Good Day to Die and False Colors....(and all the other episodes!)

Special Interests: THE YOUNG RIDERS!!! Also, writing, reading, singing, horseback riding, movies, music...I love cheesy 1980's songs, especially things by Air Supply, Wham, Madonna (sad but true), Cindy Lauper (however you spell that) and more groups that I should be too embarrassed to name!!!
