Hi there. Have admired Randi's work for some time so figured it was time I checked out JREF. That goat recipe sounds delicious.
 
Lurker for many years.

Finally had something of value to contribute today, small though it is, in the Amega thread.

:)
 
Hello everyone

Hey there,

my name is Tomas and I have been checking out the forums for quite a while and now I finaly was able to get an Account. I love to discuss politics, but economics and everything related are as well part of my interests.
Hope to have great discussions here!
 
Hello tomasF. Colonel will be along shortly with the new weeks menu. Meanwhile, take a seat, relax and have a Millers Draft.
 
I'm not just a newbie here, but also to forums in general, but I think I'm doing the thing I should do by saying hello first. Even though I signed up here to jump in and lurk heavily on the SGU forums, I thought it would still be polite to intruduce myself to the folks here at large. My real name's Marcus, I'm from the US, but our tiny nuclear family relocated itself to my wife's native Finland a bit over a year ago.

I'll admit ahead of time that I'm not the best of or most dedicated skeptic, but I'm learning. For those fellow Americans here, I came from Kansas. That alone should tell you how much deprogramming I've had to go through in the realm of critical thinking entering adulthood. When I started studying for my Bachelor's in my mid-twenties, I had the excellent opportunity to take an introductory logic class in place of college algebra. I was instantly hooked.

But that unfortunately bit me in the bum when I started classes for journalism in the following year, because so many of those fallacies applied where they shouldn't have: the start of the latest Iraq war. What I got instead of an education leading to a promising career in the news field was a bit of an insider's perspective of spin-doctoring.

Longer story shorter, I later stumbled upon a couple of skeptical podcasts that garnered many a nod and laugh and "hmm." Now, a few years later, I feel less like just sitting back and listening in on all the fun and maybe chime in from time to time.

Thanks to the moderators for letting me get my foot in the door. Now for some quality lurking...
 
A very warm welcome finexpat. You've come to the right place brother. You'll get all that and more here. I mean the rebuffs for your half hearted scepticism.
 
Wecome Tomas and have a Glass of Goats milk . Don't take this the wrong way but I hate politics or I should say polticians in the last few weeks I have had more calls from them, asking for my vote or endorsing differant ones, I tell them all the same thing ,that it is none of their business and that the only time they ever contact me is election time. By the way all NewB's are welcome to the Roast Goat BBQ this weekend
 
Welcome Fixepat Have a glass of my fresh Goats milk I do not recall a NewB as new as you in a long time So I think I will send you to Shemp he is good at showing NewB's the ropes and other things around here :D HEy Shemp we have New Blood for you :)
 
Thanks for the greets. To the Colonel, I can't say that I've ever had goat's milk that hadn't been finely crafted into cheese.
 
Goats milk cheese has been added to the menu by popular demand.

Welcome Swanjackal. What made you delurk?

The babies are on the menu, but as to make it not to obvious (to get the squeamish out of our way) we call them a side dish of carpaccio.
 
To be honest my main reason is that my usual place of enquiry dropped away, and felt I needed a change of pastures. I don't post often, mainly because a lot of what is written holds pretty much how I view things, so do not feel I have anything new to add other than my considerable bulk (physical not mental.....and blubber not muscle),but will try to ease myself into a thread at some point.
 
We'll catch you around then. Give forum community a shot, if you don't mind the crazy in there.
 
Crazy in there? I presume you are speaking of yourself? :D
 
It's time to WELCOME all our NewB's for the week .

This weekend BBQ menu back by popular demand, roasted Goat, pea soup so thick you can eat it with a fork. assorted Salads and Vegtables SmithWicks,Coors ,Belgin beer, Jameson Irish single malt, assorted Pies and Cakes for dessert.
 
Colonel forgot to mention the weeks special. "Rabbit alla king.
 
Hello.

Browsed the forum many times but decided to join in the fun. Some may recognise the username from Apollohoax. I can also be found as 'Moving Finger' on Icke's forum.
