I think we should save welcomes
to newbies til they've got at least 100 posts to their names. With the influx of freepers lately, it's hard to tell the good from the bad and ugly. :evilgrin:

14. That's mean but funny.
I appreciated the welcome when I came. I think it's a good idea, even if you accidentally welcome a few freeps.

2. Maybe a "hello" is the kindness it would take...
To turn a FReeper into a real person.

I mean, they don't get much kindness in their lives... why not see what happens?

17. Hell, No!
I wouldn't have married her if she was. Politically, were on the same level. We were middle of the road about a lot whe we met, then after 911, like most folks, we were a bit confused politaclly. In the last few months, we both began to see the light.

25. To pull someone's pants down to their ankles
without their permission. Quickly and suddenly. Hard to do with jeans, but easy to do in gym class. Especially as someone has just started going up a rope, for example. :-)

27. No, we only need to adjust when in Britain (really or virtually)
You need to adjust when in America or reading an American site. :-)
