New Here
« on: September 07, 2011, 12:15:08 AM »
Hi,

New here: Strings suggested I might find some of the conversations interesting.

He's usually right about things, so here goes.

And I've never seen Zardoz......
There is something relaxing in working with sharp pointy things.

What if there were no hypothetical situations?

"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

New wimmenses? Wow.  No gender selection on profile.  I guess Strings would know, though.

I am frankly very pleased to see more ladies taking an interest in firearms and self-protection in the last couple of years.

That is, if our collective legs aren't being pulled.

You a dancer?  Choreographer?  Never could understand how they kept all those steps in mind.  My own muscle memory is limited to fork, food, mouth, fork, food, mouth, fork, food, mouth.

One of the nine muses....where are the other 8?

Welcome to here!  It's odd or fun or scary or helpful or heartwarming, at times.  It is always interesting.  I learn more about odd subject here than anywhere else

That's not something to admit right off.  (I haven't seen it either, but I've been here a while)  BTW, Netflix doesn't stream it, so you have to find a DVD somewhere :(

Strings gave me my first firearms lesson, hope I was a good student...
I am by no means a dancer as it applies to a profession.  Just likes to move my form to a beat is all.
And it is VERY refreshing to see someone get the screen name reference.  Thank you Stetson.

Hi.

Don't believe half of what everyone else here might say about me.

It's worse.  =)

Interesting.  I thought Strings' female friends were usually "drugged", not "dragged".  Unless we're talking Mabs.  That would most likely be a "Drag" situation. 

....and Strings would have to be drugged.

And I always thought it was Strings who was in drag, what with the kilts and all.

Welcome to APS, Terpsichore. I hope you don't get disgusted and leave within a week like most new female members. ;)

You?  Innocent?  Who mentioned something about leg pulling earlier???  I think this would qualify as pulling the legs...
