    Have fun...that is really what this place is for.

    Occasionally we also manage to learn a thing or two.

    Welcome. Nice screen name, but there are plenty who claim to be "in the middle" and are anything but! ;)

    So, you've been lurking and know a little bit about us from our posts, but we know nothing about you. You newbs should use your introduction threads to tell us something about yourselves, especially if you've already been spying on us! :D

    What is with newbies who sign up and only post one time? Why would anyone bother registering and then only post one time, and only make an introduction post? Weird. I don't get it.

    Are you in favor of a free and independent Acadia homeland for your Cajuns?
    That's where they came from y'know.

    I just noted in my post above that this person made ONE post in April and hasn't visited this site since. :hmm:

    Okey dokey. I am a pretty busy guy so most of the time when I come here it is a quick glance at a couple of topics that interest me. They generally turn to bickering, arguing, and name calling ( like elementary kids) so I lose interest fairly quickly.

    I am 39. I am a man. I was raised and live in a very rural area. I used to be a Republican but change to an independent some years back. I am probably what most besides those on the extreme ends of the political spectrum would call slightly right of center politicaly.

    Well, welcome back newbie! :) Jump in and post something on the forum!

    Yes, we do that sometimes here. It's very common and even normal for people to become heated and maybe say some things to one another when talking about politics and religion. My grandfather used to say that if you want to keep your friends, then don't discuss politics or religion with them. Some people are actually attracted to the arguing, bickering and name-calling too. They find it entertaining I suppose. I do to an extent, but I don't like when things get out of control nasty either. However, there is nothing wrong with a little bit of poking! :D

    Anyways, you should participate and let your opinions and thoughts be known!
