Thanks very much. It is nice to be here.

Thank you for the welcome. I am looking forward to the journey,

Thanks Sydni. 

I enjoy your posts and comments too.

Hi Sydni

I hope all is going well for you.

I know I have been silent for a while now.  My wife was hit by a car while riding her bike on the 22 of July.  Her pelvis was fractured in four places.  I have been taking care of her since her release from the hospital on August 8th.  She is now starting to walk with out her walker.  It is good to see her out of her wheel chair.   Any way I started writing again.  Here is my latest poem.The Illusion of Freedom 

Nice image. Yeah, I posted in your Halloween TA group the other day. Did you see it? I have some more ghost stories to post there soon.

Hey Syndi! Thank you for your welcome. Actually, my boyfriend is the one who left the comment below (Nathan). Talk with you soon!

Hello. Thanks for the warm welcome, I didn't expect that. And sorry to disappoint, but the bird isn't mine. : )

Sydni,

There seems to me that AU is growing very fast. I still hope we'll chat some day; we're on the same time zone.  I really hope you were not put off by my coming out with the mental health stuff...? (It all started with the introducing myself bit) Actually I'm quite sane now even if I'm a little crazy sometimes (not in any mental disorder way). I'm also wondering if mental health is not a taboo subject, more than atheism ?

* she loves Halloween.

Thanks for the group invite, but I'm gonna pass for now. I don't need any reminders about getting older. Lol! Are you gonna start an Atheists who love Halloween group? That time is fast approaching! : )

Where's Jean Marie? I've IMd her but I've never heard back. She love Halloween.

I am an ardent web Atheist follower. I just want to spread the word. I am an open Atheist. Just hate all the injustices in the World where society believes in a religion but there are still millions of children starving and dying every day and nothing seems to get better.

I belong to the Brighton and Hove Humanist Society,UK, and go on to the website www.freethinker.co.uk

Sydni, you need to change the name of your new group if you want me to join! I won't admit I'm aging till I'm dead,haha!

Ithaca is a wonderful place.  My sister (and later one of her sons) was a Cornell grad.  More recently she lived in Rochester, where she was the Director of the Susan B. Anthony Center at the U. of R.  Upstate New York, in general, is a fairly conservative area, but Ithaca is a happening, progressive town for sure.   

Thanks, Sydni, but this is old news, you realize. The vote took place on Town Meeting day in March, 2008, when those two bozos were still in office.  Vermont is the only state that Bush never visited while he was in office.  And Vermont was the first state to declare for Obama in the election with the highest percentage of the popular vote going to him, after Hawaii, I think.

Top of the morning to you Sydni, I never left but I have been rather inactive. Lots of changes going on in my life.

The quote is from a song called "Earth" by Amendfoil, their from Finland. I can't seem to get that song out of my head.

I love this new photo, Sydni!

Sydi,

I noticed you changed your photograph, I really like it (but I must admit I like the other one too.).

About Rick Perry.  I just can't believe it... It shook my conviction that church should be seprated frm politics.  I used to believe that believers could not do much harm; this is the proof of the opposite.  And notice how he asks money at the end (the god of money...!)

I'm not wishinfg him the best of luck but his downfall; and, it can't be soon enough.

Is Texas part of the bible belt ??
