Welcome, DuhMan, you might want to head on over to Daniel’s 2000th post party, then on to GaWd’s 1000th-just so you have some idea what you are getting into here. After you do that, I feel sure you will stay forever! 🙂 And we are happy to have you. Scotti ---

Hi there. A few questions for you. Age? Marital status? Umm…I guess that’s about it. Anyway, if you’d like to meet Mr. Cynical’s second and third demands, I’ll just remind you that I’m on top of his list. (See also, sig.) Have a fantastic time! I’m sure you’ll enjoy yourself! ---

Thanks again to everyone for such a nice welcome. I have that warm, fuzzy feeling all throughout my body now… or is that the alcohol? As for the demands for a hot tub and naked pics, I’m working on it. If any of the aforementioned ladies would like to save me some time and just the pics directly my way that would be great. You will save me several weeks of hunting you all down and waiting outside your house for you disrobe so I can snap the picture with my super zoom lens. Boy what a time saver that would be. But seriously, I’m 21 years old from Rochester NY and I am currently single. I am a senior at the Rochester Institute of Technology and I also work for Xerox. Thanks again to everyone, hope to hear from you all soon. Duh ---

Hey, Duhman, welcome, welcome, welcome. Definitely stop by a post party, they’se is fun stuff. If you need me, I’ll be in the corner, being ignored by everybody. \ Hmmmmm…welcome party, eh? Well, sure I’ve already been around a month, but still, think I could pull it off? ---

And with men, I thought it was … Oh never mind… I do love a good meal, bottle of wine, walk on the beach under the stars. BY the way… I love to clean… so you just start cooking. Then relax, I’ll do the rest… ---
