TN & SanDiego -
Lemme join Tom's welcome. But us yankees don't wanna hear about your warm weather in January.

TN&SD,

Like to echo Tom's and Steve's welcome.

These two and others hate for you to mention warm weather
conditions. They just started their seasons, and mine,
Texas, is over halfway finished. NFHS, that is. The rest
is just starting to get good.

Welcome to the forum and to the avocation
Don't let those yankess bother you too much about the weather, they are just jealous.
I say their weather would get better if they got rid of those accents.

HEHEHE

Anyhow, welcome and enjoy the wisdom of those who have been where you are now.

Hey guys, fresh meat!!!!

Just kidding. Welcome to the forum.

No such thing as a dumb question. Well, okay, maybe that is not exactly true, but feel free to ask whatever it is you need to know...except the answers to the test

TNB & SBD,

Welcome from midwest GA also! Ask what you wish on this forum, you will get the knowledge you need. Mike said you won't get the test answers, BUT..you will get the info you need to help you understand it!

And yeah, you won't get bit, barked at maybe, but not bit.

Jealous?? Tell me about it. Opening day is finally coming - this Saturday. Now my big dilema is whether or not I should drop my Saturday games and go to Hartford for the UConn parade

As for accents - I can't win - I'm between Boston where they pahk the cahs in the gahrahges, and New York where youse guys really gatta watch yur step - fogedaboutit
