This is a new “introduce yourself” thread. It can include as little or as much as you want. Lets try to cover, age, ethnicity, gender (not supposed gender but gender), and any other relevant facts. Education, family, and other things are good too.
(note: if you dont want to participate, dont. But dont add needless banter and rude commentary to those that do.) This is a friendly and nice thread.
So to start:
My name: Newton(real name may come later)

Marital status: Married
Age: 25

Sexual Pref: Straight- very
I’m Popeye the sailorman,
I’m Popeye the sailorman,
I’m strong to the finich,
Cause I eats my spinach,
I’m Popeye the sailorman.
I’m one tough gazookas,
Which hates all palookas,
Who ain’t on the ups and square,
I biffs em and boffs em,
And always outroughs em,
And none of em gets nowhere.
If anyone dasses to risk me fisks,
It’s boff and it’s wham, unnerstand.
So keep good behavior,
It’s your one life saver,
With Popeye the sailorman.
I’m Popeye the sailorman,
I’m Popeye the sailorman,
I’m strong to the finich,
Cause I eats my spinach,
I’m Popeye the sailorman.
Just to clue you in Mr N. Apple, when you post something like this:
it’s akin to throwing down the gauntlet. You should have noticed by now, that we’re rarely serious in this forum.
By the way, I’m not really Popeye; I’m your Uncle.

Newt’s got 58 posts in four days. Come on, now, everybody, of course he should be able to dictate to others the contents and direction of his own thread!
