Red face Hello- I finally quit lurking !
This seems to be a nice bunch of very helpful people. I have been "lurking" for a while. I am not that used to posting in forums, so expect some mistakes.
Thank you in advance for your patience.

Welcome, Wheezie. When I saw your 'handle', I thought of the original Little Rascals. Are you old enough to remember Wheezer?

I am old enough to remember from only the re-runs. But as a kid I used to love it (I'm 45) "Wheezie" is my princess pug. I use the handle for everything.

Okay then. Don't be afraid of making a mistake here. You'll find the people very friendly like. (watch out for the duck, and stay away from the monkey!)

Don't listen to her, Wheezie. The monkey is good. The monkey is wise. The monkey will lead you to salvation. The monkey swings from the tree of life. The monkey walks hand in hand with the squirrel and the blue one next to the fish.

She's right about the duck though.

(None of this makes sense now, Wheezie, I know. Once you start getting around though, and get to know more people, you'll soon come to see that it still doesn't make any sense. I mean, what's up with desertgrandma's avatar, hey? Pretty strange if you ask me.)

Welcome. (<----note, this is the only bit in my post that adds any meaningful content to the conversation. )

Cheers,
Your harmless little interfenestral monkey, Marc

It's the squirrels you have to watch out for.

But once in awhile, if you're lucky, you'll get to see a thingularity or two!

As you can see, we have a variety of animals on this site. The monkeys especially are disruptive and love to instigate trouble.

I think my avatar is rather elegant, don't you? Its a self portrait. I think do rather well with only 1 1/2 fingers.........remember, avoid the duck!

This coming from the Krazy Kat! Wheezie You just stick with me and things will be ok!. Welcome and dont listen to a thing that certain Kats may say. And for the Record I do not Fling anything!! And Apparently me and the Duck are not on speaking terms. She has been very quite lately something about a banana vs. a cracker. Well maybe she will come back around.

aw jeez, another monkey heard from. Well, this one isn't as bad as the other. He doesn't speak in tongues, and rarely posts, so you don't have to worry too much......however, he has been known to blame others (duck) for his doings. As for the infernal monkey, (thats what I call him)...........well, just beware!!
