DU3 Reintroduce yourself thread

[Gato Moteado]

200. I am Gato......

....That's what they call me here in the small town where I now live in Costa Rica. Gato Moteado is one of my many pseudonyms. I love big cats, especially jaguars. Gato Moteado means "Spotted Cat". It also means something else.

Been Lurking on DU since it's been around but joined and started posting sometime shortly after 911.

I love rain forest. I moved down to Costa Rica almost seven years ago but it was almost 8 years ago that I sold everything I had and bought some rain forest properties down here and I am always looking to buy more to try to create or enlarge biological corridors.

Anyone here that has seen any of my angry posts knows that I absolutely hate republicans and hard right conservatives with a passion. I have no tolerance for them. Luckily, there aren't any where I live now. But I spent 11 years in Texas and the wingnuts there pissed me off to no end. I have called them human garbage many times right here on DU and I don't regret ever doing it. I used to make a hobby out of identifying and calling out trolling freeptards here in the DU forums. I wish we could take all freepers, republicans, tea baggers and other hard right wingnuts and put them on a big rocket ship and launch it into the sun.

While in Texas I made many great friends on DU. You all know who you are. We had many great parties. I miss you all.

I lived in South Florida before I lived in Texas. I was born and raised in Chicago, where you can't even get your water turned on if you're not a registered Democrat, and that's the way it should be everywhere.

I love OWS.

If you made it down this far in this mile-long thread and saw my post here, give me a shout out by replying to my post. I'd love to reconnect with all the DUers I have missed while I've been so busy eking out a living in the third world.
