About Kumioko     Kumioko is not my real name it is the name that I have chosen to use here. I am divorced and have 2 children, 1 boy and 1 girl and I live in Virginia near Washington DC. I was in the Marine Corps for over 13 years and am now in the Virginia Army National Guard. I was going to list what states, countries and cities they have visited after seeing this done by other users but after I determined that I had been to all 50 states, most major US Cities and several countries including Japan, Okinawa ( I count this as being separate from Japan), Canada, Mexico, Iceland, Norway and Puerto Rico I decided to just say it this way. I primarily edit US military biographies, especially Medal of Honor recipients but sometimes my ADD kicks in and I wander off and do other things from time to time. I submitted a request to be an admin a couple years ago and the experience left me with somewhat of a sour taste so I have not, nor intend to anytime soon, reapply regardless of my edit count. This is also why I have chosen not to run for the various roles available in WP. To hold these roles I feel, requires admin rights and so I have opted to pass on them. Although I do appreciate the EMAIL's and messages I have received swaying me in that direction. As of March 21, 2011 I have exceeded User:Kumioko/editcount edits, created over 380 pages (not counting talk pages) and over 500 redirects. Some milestones June 4, 2007 - 1st edit April 2008 - My first and only try for adminship. June 2010 - 1st time I made more than 10, 000 edits in a month December 2010 - Most edits I completed in 1 month (30, 654) Some of my favorite sayings: It could be, that the purpose of your life, is to serve only as a warning to others. Every cloud has a silver lining, but every year hundreds of people are struck with lightning, while trying to find it. Those who keep a neat and tidy desk will never know the joy of finding something they thought had been lost, forever. Wikipedia Quick Reference     Now is Monday, September 16, 2024, 04:47 (GMT).
