Karen Todd
For uses other than the Forumite "Turtle" see turtles.
Karen has hung out with many Forumites, being introduced probably by Ducky and gradually gravitating towards Turtle, and been to many Forumite parties, but has never taken the plunge and visited the Forum itself. Although she hung out with Forumites in the mid to late 90s, she moved away to California for some time, only returning to Long Island in the last few years. She recently moved to Brooklyn and works in the city as an administrative assistant for a non profit charter school organization. She likes Macintosh, Lost, graphic design, the Animation Show, swing dancing, and has a huge and growing DVD collection. She is also the queen of the indy music scene, collecting and admiring a large assortment of indy bands, and is friends with the band Static Poetry. She also seems to be friends with random celebrities such as Opie and Anthony, and Jay from Queer Eye.
Jon Griffin, known better as Turtle, is a 32 year old Forumite alumni living in Port Jefferson Station, NY in what was originally called GAMYR House, with Elana, Wendy, and Drew. He does freelance graphic design, sells his own tshirt designs, and manages a customized shoe store. In the past he has also worked in bookstores, for a printer, and at a genetics laboratory. He sees a lot of movies and watches a lot of Tivo with his best friend, Brian. He goes out dancing and parties with his friend Billy. AAnd he grooves on Macintosh, animation, DVDs, and Lost with Karen. He's a little bit addicted to [Wikipedia] and Lostpedia. He likes science fiction, turtles, biking, bungy jumping, sky diving, metaphysics, I-Con, folk festivals, acting, Burning Man, graphic design, science, swimming, places and people which are non-smoking, contra dancing, stealing hats, and his Macintosh computer. As the creator of the original Forum Omnipedia, and a wikipedia aficionado, he takes particular interest in this wiki (praise be to User:WikiMeister!).
