Have zero problem with a drink now and then. Bought a white box stove cuz the fuel can serve dual purposes.

And GCSaylor, don't be scared off if the wild bunch here asks you a bunch of weird questions...things about beets (or beats), bacon, and...I don't remember the rest. My hello thread was a real beat down, like an newbie LA Gang member getting jumped in. I'm still trying to recover.
But, welcome there are some pretty good brains here for picking.

This place is awesome! I actually spit out some coffee reading desertdweller and tigger.
I'll hush up now and resume my place in the corner on the newbie chair.
I'm finding that my opportunities to jump on the site each day are a real mental break and chance to think about things I really enjoy. I am growing to really enjoy this place and these people.

Thanks for the greetings so far. crawford this forum seems pretty laid back compared to some. Of course I haven't visited "The Political Arena" yet. I'm sure things get testy in there now and then.

I'm in a real pickle these days. So many new members (which is great) and me with a split personality: bp2go or the Beepster, who should I be, and when? I'm realizing that I'm not jumping in to add welcoming words to n00bs, but several others are adding the required questions about kilts, and now okra (!) I wonder about some of the new questions? Orange shoes? What did I miss? I should sign out and come back as the Beepster. I need to get my post count out of the New Member category and start getting some credibility (stop lauging!) ...I'll be right back.
