robrog8999 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Posted November 25, 2016 Hello all! Just joined the page a few day's ago and decided i'd give a quick, short introduction of myself! You can see some about me on my profile page as well. I am laid back and I love to meet new people. I've come here to do just that and to interact with all of you on the message boards. I enjoy meeting new people of different backgrounds, faiths and customs. I get along with just about everyone and hope to meet a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures. I am also here looking to strengthen my testimony of the Church and to learn more things. Always looking to expand my understand of the Scriptures, as well as Gospel Principles. I am not officially a member of the Church, as i've never been baptised. But i am meeting with Missionaries at the moment and actually have been on and off for the last few years. I hope to FINALLY get baptised and become a full member of the Church within the next few weeks. As I beleive in the Church and have a strong desire to preach and teach others about it. I love camping, hiking, taking walks. Traveling and seeing/doing new places/things. I enjoy writing, reading and scripture study. I also enjoy debating with people when I feel passionate about a subject. And helping other's to understand things from other perspectives. Anyway , before i drag this on to long.. I just wanted to say hello, nice to meet you all and i look forward to interacting with all of you on here. And getting to meet many of you (hopefully!) and feel free to drop me a comment, or message me at any time! I am also on Facebook, with a link to my page in my profile. Feel free to add me on FB! Thanks for taking the time to read this and May God Bless you all!! Quote
NeedleinA Posted November 25, 2016 Report Posted November 25, 2016 (edited) Welcome @robrog8999! I'm more of a Star Wars Peep myself. Edited November 25, 2016 by NeedleinA zil 1 Quote
zil Posted November 25, 2016 Report Posted November 25, 2016 Welcome, @robrog8999! It's great to have you here! And exciting to meet someone who is learning about the Church. It occurs to me that when new people join, those of us who welcome them should say a little about ourselves too (like @NeedleinA has), to help the newbie get to know us faster. In that vein, I'm the local fountain pen geek. PS: For the sake if those of us with old eyes, is there any way I can convince you to leave your posts in the default black text (or at least choose a darker, more muted shade), and save the bright colors for emphasis? (It was rather difficult for me to read all that bright red.) If not, I won't complain again, just asking a favor. seashmore, NeedleinA and robrog8999 3 Quote

Or to be calling a geek-- tis only a truthful compliment! (And I just found a bunch of players for our new campaign by posting on the Insistute page) robrog8999 1 Quote
mirkwood Posted November 26, 2016 Report Posted November 26, 2016 Ten of us were playing basketball one night. We typically shot free throws to pick teams. Five of us wanted to be on the same team. I said, "everyone who knows what Heward's Handy Haversack is join my team." Yep...there were five of us. The other 5 just stared at us... @Jane_Doe @MormonGator @unixknight unixknight 1 Quote
