New here, but long time lurker
Weird, but I feel like I know you folks, but in reality you don't know me at all. The internet is a strange place. You can have people that feel like friends that you have never even met. LOL! I'm a true blue dem and I read Breaking News, GD and GDP, but the lounge is where I come to soothe my soul and revel in the fact that there are people that share my values that are just real folks enjoying a real community. Smiles and blessings to you all.

10. Your posts always crack me up
I look for your stuff when I need a smile. And you're kind of naughty too, in some of your posts. Always interesting. Thanks for the welcome.

5. Welcome to DU
If you're here for the soul-soothing, wait until somebody starts a sex thread.

Give it about 10 minutes.

:hi:

28. We didn't
We sent his blown hose to Tejas. I dunno why they let him get away; he had 16 saves and a 2.16 ERA with 'em. :shrug:

Now we've got Saito. :bounce:

13. My dear MagsDem!
Welcome to the Lounge, the living, beating heart of DU!

This is a very cool place...

Time to talk, flirt, enjoy...

I have many friends here that have become "real life" friends...

And many that I just know here...

To me, the reality is the same...

Smiles and blessings back atcha!

:hi:

I've followed your posts too. You're exactly the same in real cyber life as you seem in cyber life. LOL! IOW, you're real, not just cool to the people you already know. Just as I suspected. :)

And how cool that you're in my time zone!

Too many of my friends are in the eastern time zone...

So they're missing at this hour...

Us Left Coasters have to stick together, yes?

Don't be a stranger!

24. Don't tempt me
I'm actually looking forward to joining in those threads that talk about the fantastic cheap, great wine I have found for a cheap price I found at the obscure market of the day. Right now I am drinking a pretty crappy red wine that I THOUGHT was going to be a fabulous find for the price. Better luck next time for me. At least I have DU lounge. :)

32. Hey I think I recognize that picture.
Isn't that Jack Lemon with Merilyn Monroe. I loved that movie.



Welcome to DU MagsDem:hi:


I still do a lot of lurking. It is like being at a dinner party with people who are old friend and you are the new guy.
