hi, i am cyrilndo and I am out to learn. I`ve been lurking for past days.
This site is just what I was looking for. Wonder if there is anything better than this.

Hi. My name is Mike and I live in the wonderful small town of Mineral, Va. I am 51, divorced, and have had an interest in the "lifestyle" for many years. Only recently, however, was I able to indulge some of my fantasies thanks to a wonderful but, alas, former g/f. My personality is on the Dom side but I have an unquenchable desire to learn, and I hope to learn much from you all. Best regards to all!

I welcome you all to TFP.....and just for the record cyrilndo, No....there is no better place on the web

Well you can call me CantFocus I'm 19 and go to college at.... HEY LOOK A BALLON!!!

Well...
 

Wooohoo! Great topics here. Look for me in tilted politics. As I get older, I actually CARE about this. Isn't that GREAT! :crazy:

wonderful! welcome and remember to follow the rules in the politics forum, it's slightly different than others.

Tilted Politics READ FIRST

Yup, Im new to the site, my name is Mike and Im from the UK, so whatsup peepz? :)

Newbie here. Stumbled onto this in my insomnia. I really like what you guys got here and looking forward to seeing you guys on here.

I'm in the same boat. Though for me it's more like I can finally understand what they're talking about. I've recently discovered Information Clearing House and Asian Times Online. Where do you get your news?

Welcome to Mikey-Corsa, and greenisme....have a great time

Transferring my regular posting habits from another forum where it got really racist and out-of-control over the last couple months. Hopefully I'll find the love here. :D

Hi, this is my first forum membership. 29, Just got my MA and will start my first teaching job in a few months. I'm looking for intelligence, friendliness, and cleanliness on the web. It needs a revolution! :cool:

We aint gots us no racinism in these here parts.....but we doos gotses lots O' de Luv.....heh

Welcome to TFP

And Vive la Revolution Puddintane

I have just joined this forum. I am a 71 year-old retired Engineer/Scientist with many, many and varied interests, including e-mailing with a host of people across the country. I have interests in (1) computers-I have a Macintosh G3, would love to have one of the new Mac Intel machines that runs both OSX and Windows!-a 3 GHz PC with all the bells and whistles, a 700MHz PC that primarily the wife uses, and several old machines out in the garage gathering obsoletion dust as it were. (2) Photography, I have 3 35mm Canon single lens reflexes with all manner of lenses, etc, a Sony DS70 digital camera, an Olympus E-300 8 MP single lens digital camera, a new digital camcorder and 2 older models sitting around, (3) writing, have about 40 short stories and two novellas, haven't hit the big time yet! (4) digitizing old 33 1/3 LPs and old cassette tapes of music to CDs and DVDs, (5) digitizing years and years of photos to CDs and DVDs, (6) surfing the NET, of course, (7) following the Houston Astros baseball team (grew up in Houston, Texas, went to Elementary, Jr. High, High School and U of H there), UCLA college basketball and football, USC football, sports in general,(8) traveling by car when we can (wife currently in Seattle baby--sitting two grandsons while daughter and husband attend seminar in Wash., DC-when she returns we'll take a car trip up Highway 395 all the way to Reno for a stay there, then across the Extraterriestrial Highway to Vegas, then home) darn high gas prices here in S. California will prevent anything more than that! (9) Astronomy, took some classes at night at one of the Community Colleges. (10) plus other varied interests. I grow tomatoes in container gardens, make my own audio music disks, will be transferring digital video from our new camcorder to computers and then to DVDs, like to record movies off of cable onto DVDs via DVD recorder, etc, etc, etc. I was in the Army from 1957-1960, with Army Security Agency, spent 15 months on Shemya Island, The Rock, AKA "The Black Pearl of the Aleutians", and two years after that working for the Federal Aviation Agency, traveling all over the dusty South in a Government vehicle putting avionics into airports. That's about it in a large nut shell. Shemyakid, Southern California..

SHEMYAKID again. I completely forgot to mention that I have a great love of reading also. I read avidly, fiction, non-fiction, history, philosophy, whatever. I took night classes at a local community college in Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology, California History, U.S. History, World History, Creative Writing (3 semesters plus Advanced Creative Writing back in the 1970/'80s), I love reading History, Civil War, World War II, alternate history, science fiction/fantasy, Physics, Astronomy, etc. I have discovered the author, Harry Turtledove and his marvellous novels of alternate history, I have his "Guns Of The South", "How Few Remain", "Days of Infamy", "The End Of The Beginning" and some others (Check the site, http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/t/harry-turtledove/). I am reading his "How Few Remain" currently but I am also reading Jack Finney's "From Time To Time", the sequel to his "Time And Again" that I first read years ago. Check him out at:http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/f/jack-finney/
Best regards to everyone. SHEMYAKID

Welcome SHEMYAKID...good to have you here

Wow, finally a forum to talk about everything. This means I won't have to shift between different forums all the time in order to talk about what I feel like in that moment. Now I can only hope that the people here are kind and open-minded, but from what I've seen by lurking a little, everyone here seems to be nice. I have yet to see one of your topics burst into flames (if you allow the expression). I hope I can give you as much as I feel like you're going to give to me.

Welcome to all our newest memebers :D

jump in and start posting and a big warm welcome to you :icare:

tecoyah cant get Doc Holiday out of his head

Hello everyone. I'm from Greece. I like writing, sci-fi, dogs, food, sex and sleep. In any order.

Hey White Scorpion.

Don't worry about all of the crazy people around here. Once you get to know them, you will find out that they are quite normal. That, or they have slowly turned you crazy so that you just think they are normal.

I can't figure out which is which. Witch?

Remember to read the guidelines, and find a board that interests you.

Hello...I'm Smoldered :icare:

I used to visit TFP a couple years ago, and now...here I am again!


Coffee (n.), the person upon whom one coughs.

Hello.
 

Hi! I'm new... My friend showed me to this site and I found it quite interesting... Hope to help others and get some help for myself!

Another N00b..
 

n00by, n00by noooo...

Smoldered - Guess the call of exquisite community just hit you, huh? I think you'll find some stuff has changed, all for the good. Glad you're back.

Green Tea - Whoever showed you TFP, thank them profusely. Then thank them for me for adding another mind to the mix that is TFP. You look like you're already on the right track up the ladder.

blueshead - No, you're mispronouncing it. It's "R00kie." And you won't be for long if you contribute and have a good time. Glad you're here too.

Hi
 

Hi im WerkkreW.

Looking forward to talking to you all!

I've been gone for quite some time, but I got a birthday note recently in my email and thought I'd stop back in. It's been so long I figure I may as well re-introduce myself. So... hi. =)

hello, all
 

hey. just stumbled onto this site through a search. it seems really interesting. I enjoy the free flow of ideas.

Hey there! Dunno if anyone actually reads this thread but...hi to anyone who does :D Good to be here.

welcome all you new people...

My name is Steve Zap (yes, I have heard it all before) and I'm from Colorado Springs, CO. I actually found this place from a web search I did about something... I forget what, and started posting because it reminded me of a forum I used to be on a LONG time ago, at puce.com.

Who knows how long I will stick around. Could be another day, could be years. Either way, I saw a bunch of cool people giving really good feedback to posts, rather than a drama-fest like most boards I see. So I figured I'd monkey around and see what's up.

Yeah, I can tell I fit in already by my 10% warning status ;)

As for the name, it is one I used to use on that Puce forum. It isn't leet speek or anything, it is just the nickname I have used forever. The nickname is HAEZE, and the username n the forum is simply that name rotated 180 degrees. People call me Steve, or Haeze, or just Zap. I respond to all of them.

Anyway, nice meeting those I have messaged already !

(By the way, how is a 10% warning filling 1 out of 5 boxes ? Isn't one out of 5, 20% ?)

Yeah... 1/5 is 20%, but if you fill half a box you have to worry about saying if it's half full or half empty. And nobody wants to start that up again.

Stick around for a while... I'm pretty sure it'll be worth it.

hi, i'm a 23 year old student living in Los Angeles. i've only been to this site for a few days and i love it already! my boyfriend has joined as well. there's soo much insight here.. i love how people can come together and share their advice, views, dilemma's, e.t.c.
i'm looking forward to coming here :)

Hi there. I'm not sure why I joined and I am not sure if I'll fit in, but this place looks fun, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. Glad to be aboard.

Good to have you here, MySexyAssJ and water_bug. I'm sure you'll fit in. Find a subject that interests you and share your thoughts and feelings. We're eager to hear from you.

Gilda

I don't think there is anyone who doesn't fit in somewhere here, water_bug!! Welcome!

Hi from New Zealand ;)
 

Hi

I found this forum a while ago through my directory (see sig) but have only just joined up. Hope to have some fun here :)

Sarah

Welcome sarah....have a blast

Hello sarahk. This is a good place to hang out. I see you're from New Zealand. I think that's a a really cool place because Xena and the LOTR movies were made there and y'all got prescription drugs that are a lot cheaper than in the US. It's good to have you here.

Gilda

Hi, I'm Avocette - shore bird - lover of estuaries, coastal climes. This forum looks very interesting. Hope to meet many minds.

Hi and welcome :)

Hello. I'm Trith and I never know what to say in these kind of threads.

Hi! I'm Rachel. I'm new and just wanted to introduce myself. :)

welcome everyone :)
this place is soo much fun! you won't regret it.

HI
 

It looks like I get to be the new kid in school for the first time in almost a decade. It's new, it's scary, and it's refreshing all rolled up in one. Boy do I miss that feeling. Anyway, I'm looking forward to posting as often as possible.

greetings :)
 

Hello. my name is alan. i was referred here by trache, my best friend of many, many years. i've been looking for a forum like this for quite a while, so i'm happy to have found it. can't wait to participate :)

cheers!

Welcome to you all....we hope to live up to the rumors

.....and surpass them all

Hi just signed up. As my user name suggests I am an arborist, so if you have any tree related questions fire away. I'm located in Lethbridge, AB, Canada

Welcome Dr.

I am sure you will be Poplar

Thought I would say Hi. My name is Steve and i look forward to participating in the forum :)

Hi, another newbie here
 

Just wanted to pop in and say Hi! I'm Frog. :D

I'm looking forward to reading and participating.

hey girlfriend...bout time you got your hoppity ass over here!!!

Hi, I'm Julia and I just joined. Been reading up on How-to stuff and just felt the urge to participate.

HI
 

hello - newbie here. Um... never actually joined a forum before, they all seem so confrontational and argumentative, but I really liked what I saw and read here, everybody seems genuinely interested in having intelligent discussions and helping each other. Hopefully I won't get too distracted with work and life in general to stay active here. I've decided to turn over a new leaf and seek out other people rather than being a hermit (that was ex-husband's fault). So I thought I'd put it out there. (Yes, I am long-winded and never shut up)

Greetings and Salutations.

I am a freak of nature whose purpose in life is to attempt integrating in amongst the status quo.

Never been successful in my prior attempts so am not banking on much distance this time around either.

Though I must admit the usually generated dialog which had resulted in the past was well worth it.

So here I am.

Love me or hate me I am now here amongst you.

Perhaps in time some measure of mutual respect may result.

Or maybe I could just go watch another episode of the X-files.

The Truth Is Out There.

And it's secrets exist within us.

Peace.

Hey everyone!

Captobvious here, but I guess that's pretty obvious. I've had my account for a while, but just recently rediscovered how fun it is to participate here. I never formally introduced myself when I first signed up, so I figured it's better late than never.

Cheers!

Hi all!

Duskytip from Alaska who has spent the day reading your threads, laughing my butt off and generally just enjoying the good feelings. Each of you compelled me to register and I am looking forward to exchanging "deep" philosophical, and real life experiences with all of you...

Actually I am from Alaska and am sometimes completely full of it!

How do I show location?
 

How do I put in 'location'.This is sure the best site I have found in the years since Al Gore and I started the net..... Had the idea while in Radio Shack tasting mother boards. You see Al was trying to develop a GPS device for his butt, so he would know where the paper was to be rubbed. So anyway after receiving my section 8, I went to school long enough to get to the 4th year, so that I could take a course that would help me understand my heritage. However my Prof asked me to leave 'Social Problems and Deviant Behavior'. Seems that I knew the plot. Well I am gonna go out and sniff the air in the tires....
MINCKEN

Just popped in as a result of a google search, and was pleasantly surprised,
by the civil nature of the discussion here. You guys rock!!

hi to all, im new here. waiting to discover the forum!

duskytip Alaska huh? That sounds cool. How long have you been there? What do you do? I bet you could write a "Differences living in Alaska" thread in General Discussion and you would get a lot of responses.

MINCKEN Well we like randomness here. Maybe Tilted Nonsense would be a good board to start out on.

caver Civil Discussion? Yeah - the mods keep things straight and for the most part, we behave with each other.

onthedge well post a couple times and start following the threads you posted in. I like to run a search on my user name so I can see if anyone commented on my . . . comments. . .

Welcome to all.

Well it's hard to believe, but I haven't posted for about 3 years. I first heard about tfp on a message board for a game that Hal(?) used to play. School was getting busier and busier so I took a break from the game and tfp as well.
Now three years later, I'm browsing fark and I see a mention of tfp so I head over to retrieve my pass. I'm surprised my account is still active over that long hiatus! I'm also surpised you guys have grown larger and closer as a community without that 'special section'. Long time members will know what I'm talking about ;) . So I'm here to properly reintroduce myself and hopefully engage in some enlightning discussions with mature, opened-minded individuals from various subcultures of a vast information superhighway we call the "internet". Or something like that :lol:

Oh yeah is there a way to change my username? I don't know what I was thinking back then.

Mondak is a most excellent welcoming committee :)

Bolla ... at TFP, what you have is what you've got as far as usernames go .. so find a way to make Bolla a good thing :)


Welcome again to our newest members.

I'm thinking Bolla Love/Joy/Fun/Mischief (as in a "ball of")

Or you could be a (forgive my white-girlness) "balla"... aren't those the street basketball players? :D

Anyway, welcome back!

Another newbie here....
 

Yes, I know, let the heckling begin! heh heh

Was told about this site by a friend and thought I'd check it out, and I've got a whole ton of time to waste at work, so this seems like something great to keep me occupied :)

Hello to all, looking forward to reading some great posts!

randygurl So do you get to Whistler much? Great place to ski or participate in whatever winter mountain sport you enjoy. Welcome.

Actually not too much - I've only been back in Vancouver for a couple of months - was living on the Sunshine Coast before that for a number of years :thumbsup:

Hi everyone, I'm new here!

This is me...getting acquainted...

Help!

hello, erm... hellopeople and Baraka_Guru.

Glad you're here, glad you're looking to get aquainted, and I'm more than happy to help you in any way you might need. I'm never more than a PM away.

Lookin' forward to seeing you both around the boards.
