hello............

well now.. isn't that thread title just original

this is my very first post ( please hold your applause ) and the last forum I belonged to pretty much insisted that newbies posted an "introduction" post or face the wrath of old timers.

so here I am.

thats it. ( for now )

It's the afternoon, and you have a cuckoo clock. Are you in the Black Forest, grynch?

so... now that I've annoyed a few people right off the bat...
..
..
is most everyone here from the U.S.of A ?


EDIT... Glatt... truth be I just edited in my location... I think just before your post.. and yes my reference to cuckoo clocks and afternoon would leave normal people (unlike myself ) to believe Black Forest.

and thanks for the welcome

If and when you do piss someone off here, I will probably burst out into song. It's practically required.


Pete... I grew up ( as much as some will allow I have grown up ) just to the west of Boston

and were do I work?
