Lurkers: I SEE you lurking! Say Hello Here!

I nose around in here at least once a day. Lots of good reading. I grew up in southwest Missouri, currently live in northeast Kansas, and enjoy bumming around in the outdoors with my dog Sadie.
 
Hey, my name's Alex, I'm a 26-year old math student in Minneapolis. I don't lurk because of any cyber-social anxiety disorder, but because I'm here to recieve information from people who know more than me, not to disperse information as someone who knows nothing. :P
 
I'm new here, only a few months exposure.
Low post count because I'm shy :D

Actually, I've developed an attitude about things that is very helpful.

When around people who actually know what they are talking about
and who's knowledge about the subject is greater than yours,
the best policy is to shut up and absorb.

This is a great forum, full of knowledge, lighthearted and fun to be a part of.
Brian, you are doing a great job with this forum. Don't stop :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Cheers
Dave
 
Can't an introvert get a little peace around here!:)..--Born and raised in the Cross Timbers area of TX.--[west of DFW]---Nam era vet. Did my time on the Czech border when it was the Iron Curtain. Spent a few years in Iran with Bell Helicopter before "civil unrest" ended that. Jimmy Carter's airlift got us out.--Have lived in the NW corner of Ct for 20+ years. Fortunate to have access to a lot of private land through my work. I hunt and fish and spend a lot more time on the rivers now that my two kids are older teens. Bears, moose have been coming back here in the last 10 or so years. Had a bear mug my screen porch for the cat food in it last spring. It probably pushed 400 lbs.My 100 lb Lab ran the other way!--Damn! Ya got me started and I cant stop.--Oh yeah! You Mora freaks are responsible for my latest addiction..Luv em!--Thanx for all the info and ideas and entertainment!--Keith
 
Wow! I'm having trouble keeping up!

Welcome aboard to all of you, and hope to see you posting more!
 
My name is Terry and I'm a knifaholic. I've been mostly lurking here for about a year now. I usually check in between patients during the day. Nights are busy and I'm at my ranch on the weekends so I don't start a lot of threads anywhere as I don't feel I can give them the proper attention. I love this forum. Great peple, great info. I usually don't have a lot to to add, but I will try to post more.

Terry and Richard, welcome! I'll be posting some pics of Richard's knives later today - his work is really unique, beautiful, and interesting!
 
Well I've been found out.

I'm Eric. I'm 24, live in Western Washington and have always been a big fan of the outdoors. I grew up hunting and fishing with my dad and brother, and am trying to get back into it now after a few years in the city. I enjoy strapping a pack to my back and getting lost, or going places most people haven't been. I travel as much as I can. Biggest and best trip so far was driving from Colorado to Argentina over a couple months. This fall I'll be sailing in the Caribbean with the same group of friends, which should be quite an experience.
 
Hello everyone. My name is Kevin and I am 24. I was into camping alot when I was younger and am now trying to get back into it. The other day I decided to put all my knives togeather and relized that I am in fact collecting them. Since I have been on here I have already purchased four, damned you all :). I new of this site before and would look up different knives and such but I now find my self at work with this site open in the background all the time. I am pleased to findout that it goes beyond knives and answers many of my camping questions as well.

Thank you all for your wealth of knowledge. :)
 
Welcome, Gents.

The knife addiction is a killer. ;) We should start KA, instead of AA.

I like learning new things from you guys and trying them myself (firestraws, fatwood, ect..)

Spending money on new gear is becoming a problem though. :D
 
40 year old in Bowling Green, Ky - love this forum; especially now that I've upgraded my internet access from a 24 k dial-up to 10M broadband cable! Now I can actually look at the pictures you guys post without time to fix a sandwich, see what is on TV, look at the stars, read a book,...
