Related: About this forumHi I'm From The Ashes!
I've been here since 2003. First under the name Trekkerlass and after the name amnesty in 2004 I changed it to TOhioLiberal. After my marriage ended in 2007 I escaped to Texas (TEXAS? What the heck was I thinking??? Billion degrees in the summer, but hey no snow!) and started a new name to reflect my feeling of being reborn.
I have 2 grown children, and three grandchildren.
I lurk mostly these days, although I post sporadically in the Lounge. I simply love it here.
To all the newbies I say: Come on in the water is fine!

A lounge lizard eh?
I only go there when I am feeling down....and need a few laughs to perk me up....and it usually works.
