Say hello to your new friend

Hello ATS people, I hope you are gracious enough to welcome me into your club. I have been around here for quite a while, and have been logged in numerous times but I have never posted. I guess I started reading this forum sometime in 2009. I have been daily traffic since then and it is a nice escape from the solitude of cleaning windows by my lonesome

In all seriousness though, I am just remarking on the best forum I have found. As I took the day off today I felt obliged to say hey to all the contributors/ members I have been reading all of these years.

I am an early 30's husband to the best woman on the planet and I am grateful to be alive. I have had a few brushes with death and am lucky to be alive IMO. I enjoy lots of beer and lots of smoke but I notice I have more lucid dreams without the beer. I live in the I.E., which is an inland group of cities in California. It is nice here if you like easy winters. It rained last night for the first time in weeks. The summer sucks because we have heat waves of over 100* F and I work outside in the sun all day but hey it beats living where its muggy. From where I live I can go to the beach or the mountains in one hour; although I would like to be a frontiersman with my old lady. Moving from this cesspool onto greater heights in the mountains outside of California. Colorado homesteading or Wyoming. I want horses!!

So what says you ATS, will you welcome me, or will I have to guzzle this pitcher myself?

I will try to upload pictures later. I have three dogs. They are great. I will give my wife anonymity, but my dogs you must see.

Welcome to ATS, have fun!

Side note for mods: I have noticed a few new members having Oct 2011 for registration dates, is this a glitch?

Welcome to the land of the loonies, you long time lurker!!
Il give ya dog pics a look when you upload 'em.
All the best.

Welcome friend - hope you enjoy the ATS experience moreso now that you are interacting on the forums directly Enjoy

Welcome to the site. Hope you enjoy it.

You can use Ccleaner to clean windows faster.

Hi.

Hi there and welcome. Our sweet cookie girl should be here soon.

Can't wait to see the doggy pics. Love me some doggies.

Hey there all, here are some pictures I promised. It took me a minute to figure out but I think that it works. My dogs are beautiful. If anyone wants to but one it is not going to be cheap, except for the little pitbull. She is hell on wheels and I could let her go at a good price. I am just kidding though because her name is justice and she will serve it on any intruders. So basically, I will not part with my canine companions but rather share a piece of my functioning mind. P.S. I might have social awkwardness. And for that I am sorry.

G,day mate and welcome from South Australia
i do hope you have dragged along your own straight jacket as the mods. Have run out of them.
did you mention beer aah the nector of tbe gods
watch out for Pat, Bally and Pheonix as they will drink your bloody fridge into a state of drought lol


oh bugga here have another

You see I'd been more inclined to put the straight jacket on them as to keep more beer for us.
It is fascinating actually interacting with someone half a globe away.

A special thanks too all of the members that have dropped in to give me a welcome. I appreciate that and hope to see you in other forums than Introduction.

a reply to: harvestdogThree dogs? Me too, along with 8 goats and 13 chickens, oh yea, cant forget the cat The two pigs are on the way...

Welcome to the land of the looneys.

Don't forget the Luminaries. After ll, we are one big happy family.

Now no one is going to tell you this but ATS has at least 10 levels. Access to each level involves gaining knowledge in that particular area you are tying to enter. Try and stay away from the basement and attic. Really weird stuff goes on there. Just between you and me, Its where all the skeletons are stored. lol lol

Again, welcome and feel at home.

Quoting Scarface and a reference to licking windows...

It seems you're going to blend in quite nicely around here.

Welcome to the asylum.

We are rigel4... we offer greetings!

Great pics, you've got a nice pack. Can't wait to move from the city, so i can have another germ shep. Always good to have a furry body guard/ burglar alarm wandering about!!
All the best.
