I am so glad to be back here!


I have missed you all. It's a rough world out there, you know how it goes, same ol shit.
I am catching up on threads in A/A (just sounds like a 12 step program eh?) and I am almost afraid to step on toes. For fucks sake!
Anywho, I am glad to be back. Had to give a shout out to my dear Trotsky (I have missed your insight). There are so many others I have missed reading your witty posts that keep me in stitches. It's just nice to see your names =)

Luv gellie

Sounds like you are a good friend of Beam Me Up Scottie. To some people on DU, I'm sure that alone will qualify you for your own personal spy drone.

You shouldn't have to worry much about stepping on toes in here. But there's a certain Other Group where Big Brother and Sister are always watching.

They also spy in here sometimes, sniffing for posts they can alert on. That's why some of us enjoy taking the urine out of them in this group.

Anyway, good to "meet" you and have fun!

Yes I'm seeing that. Scottie and I would back each other up

I'm reading as fast as I can to catch up on that clusterfuck. Lol.

Thanks for the welcome back

mr blur can get you a new ID badge.

I too am trying to sort out everything that's happened to our AA family, maybe someone could pm the both of us?

Here's to absent friends, now there is one less.

As to Onager's take on certain other groups, I agree wholeheartedly. I"m a relative newcomer here but glad to learn that the Thought Police tend to keep to themselves for the most part.

Nice to meet you and it's nice to know there are reinforcements aligning in the rear... or the front... or anywhere we can get reinforcements to align. Anyway, welcome back to the world of gleefully godless Democrats.

Not enough of us. But we can be partisans, sniping and blowing things up behind the lines...

Alert troll activity is at a low at the moment, but as it says in The Babble: You Will Know Them by Their Fruits.

My phone wanted to call you Mr.Blue and this isn't a Quentin Tarantino movie quite yet...although I'm liking the whole "reservoir dogs"thing

👍 got my rubber chicken, secret decoder ring...and Scottie mentioned a new ID card (I will be by to pick it up)

And thanks for the compliment. Oh it's been wacky lately, funny how things ebb and flow though. It is generally quiet until one of us steps out of bounds and points out religious hypocrisy, then it's war on DU's intolerant "anti-theists."

GD is like the OK Corral this week, so if it's okay with everyone I've decided I'm going to hide in here for a while.
