New here
New to the site. What's up and what goes on. Some of the threads seem kinda, um, interesting and how does a new, computer illiterate guy get into the stuff?

Well, about the only stuff I've been in comes from the fertilizer end of a cow and is about neck deep.

RE: New here
Wasn't "The Stuff" a B movie from the 80s? Or maybe it was "The Fluff." All I remember about it was that people would eat this marshmallow creme stuff and then die, or it would eat them, or something.

Welcome Lobo. Yeah, we are interesting. Just have a sense of humor, and don't take everything seriously, and you'll survive here.

BTW, I like the moniker.

RE: New here
Hey there Lobo. I'm pretty new here too and they've been nice to me. I brought my own stuff so they don't really have to give me any of theirs, though they all have lots of it and are happy to throw it your way if you run short or aren't watching where you are going. Just remember to raise the correct hand/paw when you're sworn in on the Bible, I mean your copy of the 2001 Gear Guide.

El Lobo, you will be fine here as long as you don't mind boobs, buying rewinding dvd players, political & religious threads, talking dogs & swinging squirrels. After all, it's winter, and we haven't been staying on topic :{}

RE: New here
Okay, a serious note for new comers. Just my humble opinions, of course. USE TRAIL TALK TODAY!!! You won't have to see old posts over and over (and over...) just the additions for today. If you miss a day, well, you'll figure it out.
Most of us mean no offense and we will tease and bantor. Be warned, there are few wackos here that are so far left or right that they bump into each other and are often indistinguishable.
Have fun. Hang your food, hang-up your spurs, and jump-in!

RE: New here
day hikes mostly with kids and family at times. hike southern oregon and oregon coast. Like the collins trail with the Sasquatch trap on it. Yeah, I hike through the valley of death, I shall fear no evil, bears,spiders,snakes and things that go bump in the night.

RE: New here
Sasquatch trap? Sasquatch trap? Were is it? What does it look like? I am Sasquatch and do not want to get trapped. This Sasquatch thing is a myth. Those things they saw were just Idaho mountain men out for a walk, like me.

RE: New here
Lobo, well, actually, it's not the squirrel itself that is swinging; it's just his genitals. It may sound weird, but there is much you have to discover.

We have pics of ourselves & the squirrel on what's called "phil's photo page". The link to this site is on the trailtalk main page. Feel free to investigate & send in a pic of yourself.

RE: New here
Tommy,
Hiking, Step 1: Look straight down toward the floor. The appendages you see are your feet. (I know this because I read your posts on the underwear thread -- you'll have a clear view.)
Hiking Step 2: Move one foot forward, then the other; just like size, which foot goes first doesn't matter.
Hiking Step 3: Take a rest break with the beverage of your choice. Enjoy the view. (You can stop looking down now.)
;)

RE: New here
I'll take you all up on the offer to look at pics, mayhaps I send in one of my own in a real wild setting,outdoors or in what would be your preference? I think I got the hang of the squirrel thang although I would consider my self in the moose catagory.

RE: New here
Welcome to the MAD HOUSE Lobo. From readin ya comebacks on these fine people, I think you'll fit in purty good. My advice is don't take anybody here to serious. We all krazy! Avoid the threads dealin with Religion or politics. I see ya live on the West coast. I don't know any of em over there in person but we have the best TT hikes over here on the East side. ECT RULES!!! (duckin to avoid flyin objects) And one more thing; Don't feed the trolls. Dat's about it.
Enjoy ya stay at Camp Trail Talk!
