    Default Howdy, noob here!

    A friend pointed me to this site and I've been looking around for the last hour or so. Looks you have a great community here and I'm looking forward to being a part of it.

    My username is extremely clever, if I do say so myself. (My first name and last initial, lol.)

    About me: I'm 40, married with 8 children ranging in age from 23 to 6. I'm a Canadian living in Nova Scotia and have questionable personal hygiene. Okay, not that last bit.

    So hi! And I look forward to getting to know you all.

    Earplugs for living with them, slingshots for feeding them (might lose an arm otherwise! ) Kidding, kidding. Happy to meet you.
