Wow, this place is way different than the board I was on.  Everyone is so friendly and helpful

Not I.  I am mean.  Mean, mean, mean.

welcome to the madness

newbies buy the ammo! (can't believe you guys forgot that old saw)
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Welcome to the party, Chrissy.....just a few warnings....

1. You're joining a very elite group (APS). In fact, you'll be in an elite group within the elite group (Women of APS). And you'll have a lot to live up to.....one of our ladies here enjoys writing closing legal arguements...while in labor....another can kill a man at 100yds with a stiletto...not the knife, the shoe....as well as the occasional visits from porn stars and furries....so, if you're worried that we'll think you strange....forget it....you're going to have to work hard to make it up to boring.....

2. Occasionally, the APS members pick out a random member and try to kill him.....I was the Jan 2008 choice....and, by joining, you're in the lottery for the 2010 slot....

3. If you eat your bologna sandwich with mayo, you're weird. If you eat your bologna sandwich with Miracle Whip, you're qualified to be a moderator....

4. If you love Ron Paul, be sure to tell El Tejon....he'll send you Chee-tos....


Good luck....  =D

welcome from one of the resident ladies on this board.(no, apperently i dont' get mention with special talents :-P )

if you want a gun centric board without male... errr... issues, in addition to THR, try 'women and guns', which caters specifically to the female shooter.

BTW, fisty is harmless, really. and if he's being annoying, just throw a shoe at him  :laugh:

Chrissy, this is the BS board.  We talk everything here, and are largely only bound together as an interest group by our domain name:  Armed Polite Society.  You're probably familiar with it as a Heinlein quote from one of his books?  "An armed society is a polite society."

So... we're all firearms owners but we tend to talk all sorts of stuff.

Got a question, bring it here.  If we don't know, we'll try to point you in the right direction.

Welcome!

Haha, you guys/gals are funny and a lot of fun.  I'm not scared and I'll work hard to live up to the standards.  I'm just glad there are other women on this board. 

BTW - No need to watch yourselves (i.e. forgetting you're not discussing things with just guys).  Just go about what you normally do and I'll chime in whenever.   =)

Hi chrissy.  Welcome to APS.  Most of the posters here are poseurs and are inmates in either state prisons or homes for the droopy eyed and drooling set.  Myself and El Tejon are their keepers and we promise to filter their comments. :police:

Girls, women? Pah everyone knows there are no women on the internets!, right? They're all just 45 year old men pretending to be 16 year old girls. Don't ask how I know...

Don't worry, we won't warp you too badly.

But you did something the other day that pretty well proved your femaleness.  By the way, how is the new little one, BW?

And welcome aboard, Chrissy.  Newbies are welcome, fistful is the resident scapegoat, and grampster was lying through his teeth about he and El Tejon keeping the rest of us in line.  =D
All the bad stuff they've been saying about APS is true.  Very true.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

She's good.  Sleeping at the moment, taking a break from all the eating and pooping.  Back up to her birth weight, which is quite good.  She lost just about 10% in her first 36 hours, which is ok, but just on the edge of ok.  Gained it back at record time though, so I can quit worrying about her getting enough to eat. 

Haven't heard from the in-laws since Sunday, when they announced they were gonna hold off visiting until the end of the week.  Dunno what's going on there, but it'll keep.

Took her up to clinic today on a class break, so's I could show her off to co-workers.  They were suitably impressed.

In other news, I wore pre-pregnancy jeans today, because I am just that amazing.
