Hi

[quixotic1]

Long time lurker, recent joiner.

Not sure what to say at this point. Just saying "hello," per the "You can now start threads" message. :-}

1. Hello.

[Glorfindel]

2. Hello, and welcome to DU!

Since you're a long-time lurker, you already know what a great place DU is.

4. Welcome to DU, quixotic1! I hope you will find this a place you can call home!

Lots going on here. If you click the Forums & Groups tab at the top of the page, you will see all the different parts of DU.

Depending on what your hobbies are, something might catch your eye. I'm a member of the Photography Group and it's a great place!

So, Welcome!

9. Welcome to DU

I was a lurker for ten years before I joined. I have to say being able to post my thoughts makes DU all that much better.
Have fun!!

10. Are you closer to Don or to chaotic?

Either will fit in around here. Welcome!

[quixotic1]

12. Maybe...?

Thanks!

I don't know who those folks are, so it's hard to say at this point.

You may have noticed that my sense of humor is quirky. (I will neither confirm nor deny a fondness for puns and wordplay.)

As far as other things go, I like to believe that I'm a rational being with a healthy dose of goofiness and unpredictability. I'd like to believe that the arc of history tends toward progress. (I'm just tired of people trying to hold the pendulum string in a single position.)
