My favorite line from the Simpsons was when Homer went to Mr Burn's mansion, don't remember why, but Mr Burns being the dick of a character he is written as said "Smithers, release the hounds".........So two of the dobermans, sprinted out the door after Homer really fast, then an old one limped out the door and Mr Burns looked at Smithers and asked "What's wrong with Hitler?"
Anywho, be sure to barbecue kittens, record the NFL without their permission and rip the tags off of your mattress.

“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll

Welcome.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Welcome to the forums, I hope all goes well for you here. I'm glad you left religion behind you, now if only we can get the vast majority of the world behind us.
