I guess I have to do this...

Hi, everyone!

I believe that a brief personal statement is the accepted first post, right? Well, here it is:

1. Male, College Professor (Engineering), traded my Mouseketeer membership card for the standard AARP.
2. Raised Catholic, quit as soon as I figured it out (I was 13 - but then again, it's not like it is a hard thing to do!).
3. Married, wife (Psychologist) + two daughters (Lawyer, M.D.)
4. I live in NY.

So there!

Very succinct. I can tell you're an engineer.

Where in NY? I lived on Long Island for 55 years before trading it in to live in this red-state hellhole that is Arizona.


(However, the weather is nice.)

Welcome to the forums, don't mind the troll poo scattered about, we're fairly good at cleaning most of it up. Feel free to lurk or post till your heart's content.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Welcome! You have an übercute avatar ^_^
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
