Hello ATS, been a while since I've been here and posted. Several years actually but hey, time is relative, right. It didn't seem very long to me since I left and went walkabout. That said ATS seems different than I remember, more divided than ever. Sadly but unsurprisingly just like America. I must say it's a bit distressing to see the escalation and ever widening divide in the political forums.

Anyway I thought it best to greet folks through the Intro forum and give old friends (and hopefully new ones) a heads up that I've returned. In the 3 years since I've posted, many names are new, many of the old names are no longer active. Such is life. Anyway, being gone didn't mean not dropping in once and a while to see what was happening. Some things change, others not so much.

So a quick intro, I'm conservative, a veteran, and believe in the Constitution as it was written by the founders. How conservative? So conservative I'd never dream of telling you what you should do, who you should marry and believe your freedoms to do whatever you please extends as far as you want until they infringe on anothers. Perhaps that makes me a liberal IDK, labels don't really seem to help us much do they?

Finally though I thanked the mods in general and a couple specifically for helping me get up and running again (couldn't post) I'd like to thank another for stepping up as well. Thank you Kandinsky!

Hello ATS, I'm back!

Humour is a good attitude to have at the moment.

Hey Snarl, Good to hear from you, missed your avatar. Hope you're well my friend.

LOL ... a Lot has changed. I moved back to the States and am hoping to be on my way back out again already.

You don't know how much I hoped you'd come back. You were that guy at the bottom of my Friends List. The one who was gone the longest. Well ... if not the very bottom, damned close to it. Good to see your name rise to the top. Next time you plan to take a hike ... you owe me a personal message (so I can manage my expectations!!).

Toasting your return with a fresh glass of Tequila.

Oh gawd tequila, that's not gonna sit good on top of all this gin haha. But OK next time I promise to give a heads up. Guess you're wondering if moving back was a great idea.

For me ... it was a necessary evil. Of course I wasn't expecting to walk into the fires of Hell exactly. LOL

It does feel good being armed-to-the-teeth again.

Hahaha fires of hell, really? Doesn't seem that hot yet. Being armed to the teeth is like prerequisite in the US right? Really though IDK since I've always been armed to the teeth. Is there any other way?
