[edit] Where is IRF?
IRF is busy...really, really, busy. With the three kids, working, and umpiring, I unfortunately have no time to wiki. I have been a H*R fan forever and a member of this fine wiki for several years. I hope that this is not the end to a chapter in my life. With the job that I have now, I have risen to the level to where I actually have important stuff to do. In my hay-day of wiking I would wiki instead of working...and when I went home, I'd wiki, but that really isn't an option anymore. I still make a few edits here and there, but as far I see it now, my days of coming close to resembling a power user are over. Still talk to me though, I log in about once a month.

[edit] Beginings
Haldo! I'm Invisible Robot Fish (IRF for short).
I've been around this great, big internet of ours a few times, so I know what I'm talking about. I made my first edit to this wiki on October 5, 2004. Amazingly, this edit survived to the present day. How is that for starting out on right foot, huh? Anywho, I was welcomed two months later by the proprietor himself, Joey Day. To date, I have made a total of 2700+ edits. 1040+ of them have been mainspace edits.
[edit] About My Username
Yes! All will tremble at the crack of our eggs and the hush of our 2-ply toilet papers.
I am a sucker for obscure references, and I thought my username should be no different. This name refers to the SB email#16 Band Names. This was the same historic email that introduced us to the band Limozeen! What fun.
Outside of the H*R Universe I usually go by the username of topguncali or calitopgun, as Top Gun is nickname I've had since high school (although since its been a long time since high school, very few people know of this nickname, let alone call me it). I love the movie Top Gun despite its many technical and logistical inaccuracies.

[edit] About Me
My real name is Chris Cali (כריס) and I am a long-time wiki user, and an even longer H*R fan. I consider myself one the original crop of fans that remember things like the old formats of the website, and things like A Jumping Jack Contest. I was born in 1981 and have a beautiful wife Christie. I have 5 children; Anthony - born in 2005, Jocelyn - born in 2007, Elijah - born in 2009, Arabella - born in 2011, and Micah - born in 2014. I live in Chesterfield Virginia.
I love obscure references (hence my username) and love of Homestar Runner.
Favorite Quotes Found in the Wiki:
- What about option 4: the "Homestar talking into a banana" is actually a service robot programmed by Louis and Gilbert from Revenge of the Nerds to provide a visual representation of the messages left on the answering machine. The answering machine is, of course, connected to the "Homestar" robot by invisible nanowires or Marzipan's wireless network. from Trey56 ...link to quote
- This item was declined like there's no tomorrow... from It's dot com ...link to quote
- (from a user talking about The Cheat) Having a fake I.D. in the first place implies that The Cheat is, unlike several other characters, under 21 years of age, or at least too young to engage in some age-restricted activity in Free Country, U.S.A.
[Reply] or he could also be an illigal alien or a secret agent. in short: rv from E.L. Cool ...link to quote - ...it's Homestar: "But He's In Space! from KieferSkunk ...link to quote
