> [@Beckdawrek](#): > > I am a babe ( in lotsa ways!) I am star struck and in awe of all of you! Thanks for letting me lurk around and swim the big fishes. So much fun!! We’re old, but interested. Are you slutty? We like sexy females, and some of us like sexy men. And some like both. We’re an open-minded bunch. ---

Let me put it this way, as the resident (and I say this with kindness and love in my heart) babe in woods, sluttiness is a state of mind. It is almost zen-like! So, yeah, I can go with that.

I joined in 2004, just before pay to post. It is odd to think of all the jobs I’ve had and cities I’ve lived in since joining. And, since I mainly post about politics and sports, all of the various elections and sports seasons since then. ---
