Sorry about that. We flying foxes have a reputation for being loud, even within the narrow hearing range of humans. I have been highly active on online forums under different names since April 2002, shortly after I discovered O&M via the webcomic list at kevinandkell.com. I was a little reluctant to join this one, partly because I had so many others to attend and partly because I thought there was little exchange besides iterations along the lines of "LOL" and "Aww." This month has seen my forum roster go up by two, which is rare. I attribute it to both my new job and my Lenten decision to lay off video/computer games. It's like when quitting smokers chew lots of gum or quitting alcoholics drink lots of Coke. The only forums I've visited without returning pretty often are IMDb discussion boards. I expect to stick around here.

Heya! Welcome to the forum, and... (pssst, tavis, we did get those anti-air missiles away from bsp, right?) ... um... yeah, hope you enjoy a long, fun, and safe stay! and the 'awww' threads come from a cute picture, while everything else ends up a random conglomeration of streams of conciousness of the various people around the world here! It may not always make sense, but heck... does it really have to?

Welcome to the forums Tom Flapwell. Your name seems familiar somewhat.

<table border='0' align='center' width='95%' ><tr><td class='quotetop'>Quote: </td></tr><tr><td class='quotebody'> Good, another fox.</td></tr></table>  You might say that, but do a little research on flying foxes. We're typically classified as bats but have about as much in common with primates. Take your pick.  <table border='0' align='center' width='95%' ><tr><td class='quotetop'>Quote: </td></tr><tr><td class='quotebody'> Your name seems familiar somewhat.</td></tr></table>  That has to be coincidence. I've never used this name online outside this forum, and I doubt you know me offline.

Welcome to the board, Mr. Flapwell. You'll probably want to be fireproofed soon. Oh, and you might not want to eat that.
