Marine Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I'm here by invite from the owner and from Tripwire. No, I am not a woman. Looks like you all got some cool smilies here: :cool1: Anyway, I hear you are starting a story section and looking for writers. Tripwire asked if I could post mine here, be glad to. Anything you all want to know about me, ask away. I'm sure at least a few of you recognize my handle. I ain't looked around yet to see if I know anyone, but howdy anyway to everyone. I live way up in N. Idaho, north of Spirit Lake. I work construction. I'm a Marine, no longer active. I was a professional marksmanship instructor and a water combat instructor, rescue swimmer, and the rest of my duties were combat support and logistics. Basically getting bullets and bandaids to the front lines. Been into survival and preparedness for quite a while. Don't get to practice as much as I wish, but that's life. Got to bills to pay and all that... So I guess that's that. Look forward to checking out the site. Link to comment

BiscuitMaker Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Welcome Marine, we have a lot of real smart people here and we love to share I am glad you are here. I would like to thank-you for your service it is men like you that keep us safe. Oh and sometimes we get a little crazy!!! I started prepping 3 years ago and I laugh when I think about how I thought a little food under the guest bed would do I am much more educated now and I am very advanced at stocking up. This site is great we all learn from each other. Can't wait to read your story! Link to comment
Darlene Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Oh how kewl! Welcome Marine...we're so glad that you've joined us, and you just wait...the ladies will be bringing in the refreshments shortly... We have a great group of people here in our little obscure corner on the net...we look forward to getting to know you better, and you - us. We look forward to reading the story you wrote and hope that you'll be writing more in the future. The only thing you need to remember about me is that *I* am the innocent one. I usta have witnesses but they all disappeared. *sigh* What troubled times we live in today. lol Link to comment

Marine Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 guiltys41, are you on TB2K? You're avatar looks familiar, but not your handle. I have an idea who you might be if you are. I haven't been on TB2K for a long long time. If you read that one particular thread, then you know why.... Link to comment
Darlene Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Actually, I think there are a couple of gals here from Idaho...Trip is in MT, and we have a few girls in Washington state...so the way I see it, you're kinda surrounded. *gasp* Who knew? lol Link to comment

crazycatlady Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Welcome indeed!! Can't wait to read your work! Now as for refreshments . . . I hope you like apples, because we went apple-picking on Monday and gots lots of themn (like 50 lbs., sigh). So, I've got baked apples, fried apples, apple crisp, applesauce muffins, apple brown betty and a few more in the works. Writing is hard work, so come on and have a snack (or two or 5).
