New sticky in the newbie area?

I'm sure most of you have noticed that many people that are new to this forum just say hello, and don't say much about themselves.
I'd like to suggest that someone post a sticky with a few simple introductory questions to answer so they can tell us more about themselves.
examples:
Hobbies, or forms of recreation
favorite and least favorite exercise
How did you find out about this forum
kids, pets, family?
favorite foods
(and maybe a weight loss question or two)
etc. etc.
 
Does any like this idea? Do you hate it? anyone?
 
I like it. Would be a great ice breaker and probably be a help to new people who don't know what to much in an introduction.
 
I think it works okay the way it is right now. It gives the other users a chance to ask questions of their own and the newbies may feel that they have to fill it in (and if they don't want so many questions may be discouraged from posting). Having said that, we have a similar set of questions (more related to weight loss) in the diary section that has been successful.

Also I don't think the "how did you hear about the forum" question is suitable--Sounds a bit like a poll :/ I have to answer that question when I apply for car insurance online.
