    I guess you have to be a beer lover to get it. :)

    A "slab" is Aussie slang for a carton of beer.
    [​IMG] This is my favourite. Coopers Sparkling Ale. 5.8% alcohol content/bottle. No, I am not an alcoholic, but I don't min a drop of this stuff.

    I'm MJ. I'm non-artisan but each side thinks I am with the "enemy". LOL I am American, born and raised in Chicago, IL.

    I am pro-America/USA!!! (but not xenophobic or ethnophobia).
    I am not bigoted in any way against anybody.
    I'm highly allergic to whackadoodles (crazy, whiny, argumentative, etc).
    I will engage in conversations with anyone if we have a difference of opinion.
    I will not engage with anyone that is disrespectful and hateful.
    I am very grateful for our military because they defend our freedom.
    I may not agree, but vehemently defend everyone's right to Freedom of Speech.

    I have hope that we all can find a way to come together for the good of our nation and work toward making us truly UNITED again.

    I made these screenshots in case you haven't had time to find your way around. These are the things I would have liked to have known when I signed up so, hopefully, it helps.

    Jump on in anytime! Don't take any of it personally. I look forward to your posts!

    1. Scroll to the bottom of the page to find the "Help" and other menus.

    2. There is a subforum for you to send messages to the mods (only you and the mods can see what you put there).

    3.At the top, click on your username in the upper right corner to see details about your account.

    What's your point quoting me and adding your rhetoric? We've been through this. So you have to big note yourself now? Do I threaten you?

    Did MJ mention the "ignore" feature? (and at the bottom of the page there is a function where you can chose to read those on ignore, usually confirms my choice of who belongs on ignore)

    And Welcome.

    Can I make a suggestion for you? How about you create a page within the Greetings section. Then, when newbies come along, you ask them, would you like the introductory tour of the site. So as to inform them and allow them to make the decision whether they want the link from you to or to view your post of yours or they can happen upon it during their travels on the forum. Instead of shoving in their face and messing up their intro page. Sound good?

    Welcome from one newbie to another, I believe we’ve met. Can I take this opportunity to plug my forum satire page whilst pretending not to? You won’t go far wrong with Krispy’s news headlines. Regularly updated (just now) and all you need to know to keep the forum wolves at bay. Headlines, competitions and a coming Agony Aunt column. Can’t go wrong with Kris P. Bacon’s ‘Oh I didn’t know that.’ :)

    Yes, we have Kris P Bacon. Hi, five. Nice link BTW. Not that obtrusive & it gives you the option.

    I'm no chef, but I can whip up a rippa bbq! BBQ chicken, prawns, steak and snags. All washed down with Coopers Sparkling Ale.
