Howdy fellow newbie! You’re right, you have to watch out for the nitpickers. Sometimes they pinch. Purely accidental, you understand.  
[/QUOTE]

(in the crab voice) I like to pinch.  
Little pinch?

Welcome! Any friend of \*\*twicks \*\* is a friend of mine! She did tell you about the requisite chocolate love offerings that all new members are required to send me, didn’t she? No, really, it’s a rule. OK, maybe it’s not a rule, but it should be.  
😃  
[/QUOTE]

I’ve got a bottle of chocolate flavored body oil. Will that do?

or would you simply prefer a box of turtles. 😛 \< turtle

I’m nobody, but welcome anyway.

Your future plans sound interesting. Btw, have you seen Snakes on a Boat yet?  
[/QUOTE]

snakes on a boat? WTF… I’m gettin whooshed, I know it.

Hey if my plans work out maybe I can work it where some dopefans can cruise the carribean w/me for cost. I’m not sure if I’ll be leaving from here or the east coast. (Got folks in Va.) but I figured on spending some time just checking the local waters.  
If I start here I figure everything from cancun to padre to new orleans down and around Fla. island hop for a couple of months and up the eastern seaboard to Va.  
Then make plans to really get away. I’d like to circumnavigate, making port on weekends wherever I’m at. up from va. to newscotland\>across to G.land\> Iceland\> ireland\> UK\> Fra\>\>\>espana\>mediterranean\>(check it out for several weeks at least)out and down to good hope\>\>madagascar\>\>up and across to india\>\>down through indonesia\>\>OZ\>\>Z-land\>southpacific (probably be there awhile) back up through phillipines and southeast asia\>\>japan..sthkorea\>\>kamchatka\>\>aleutians..down west US coast and south from there. gotta stop Baja\>\>acupulco\>\>costa rica\>\>around the horn\>\>north to del rio and back in the Carribean\>\>home  
I figure about 3yrs. minimum  
Yeah I know its sounds kinda out there but I’ve done everything else I wanted to do and WTF it sounds like a hell of an adventure.

If I can just sell my land I’ll be set. Already got a couple of boats lined out.

Hey **Chowder** I brought the booze, I’m lining up the women, got a nekkid party in the works, hooked up somebody with chocolate body oil, and I’m making plans to take y’all on a carribean cruise. WTF else can I do? Pie? no problem buddy, what kind.  
Personally, I like pecan pies but for you I can probably find some kinda UK pie. What’ll it be? blood or kidney?  
I promise you pie by this evening. 😉

I’ll settle for the pecan covered in nekkid women and chocolate body oil whilst sprawled on a boat in the Carribean throwing steak and kidney pie at the seagulls.

Oh yes the booze will come in handy as well. 😃

Oh no. Fluffers is something very different from poofters. If there’s something we need that we don’t have, it’s a bunch o’ fluffers.

So, who’s gonna open up the pen and release the fluffers?

Well, we don’t NOT need poofters.

We definitely need fluffers, or at least some that will openly admit to fluffing until the sun goes down.

Just don’t let that sun go down on me.

Texan, eh…do you have a ranch in Crawford and just want to buy a sailboat to get away from all that hard work?

As I am sure you are aware, it is customary to post a link to a nude photo of yourself when you are new on this board.

Also, be sure to include your full name, credit card number and expiration date in your profile.

Charter Members are always addressed as, “Dear Wise One”.

There is a secret handshake you will learn at your first Dopefest…it entails unzipping your pants and standing on your head (we provide pillows).

Other than that, you seem to have the lay of the land here.

Welcome aBoard!
