Hello everyone!

I've been reading this place for a few weeks now and absolutely love this forum. Everyone here is so knowledgeable and helpful, I've learned more from this forum then all other places I've done research combined, and I haven't even posted yet! Hopefully I won't ask anything too repetitive (I've read a good bit of the forum already) and hope to be a contributor, in time of course!

A little about me:
I'm still in my research phase and have yet to purchase a RB yet, but I've pretty much got my heart set on a Brazilian. I'm 25 and live in the Wesley Chapel, Florida, USA and I've wanted a pet snake pretty much since I was about 5 when I used to catch garter snakes and keep them in shoe boxes. But now I've stabilized after college and am looking forward to doing it right, no shoe boxes this time.

Thanks again everyone and I look forward to the conversations we'll have!

Welcome aboard, Mike. I'm awarding you 10 points for doing your research *first*, which seems to be a rare thing these days. I'm awarding a further 10 points for actually reading through some posts before posting yourself. Look at you, brand spankin' new and already with 20 points! :)

Hello and welcome Mike
I agree with Todd, it is great to welcome people who have done their research first.
@ Todd - liking the points system, can we trade them for stuff?

Oh yes, every 25 points earns you a cookie. I make them myself and I don't just hand those bad boys out all willie-nillie like...they have to be earned :P

hi and welcome along from dark wet miserable Glasgow :D

and gonna use one of my favourite chinese proverbs

“He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; he who does not ask a question remains a fool forever” not that I think anyone who asks a question is a fool though, its the not asking part of the quote i like most

Surely that is worth a cookie CDN? :D

Thanks again everyone for the warm welcome.

Now I just need to figure out how to get five more points!

Welcome Mike! As others noted, it's always a pleasure to meet someone who does their research first. Your timing is good too, as we're entering baby season (well, some are already there -- my three girls are making me wait a bit longer). If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Cookies, CDN? Was this a result of the "little Ta-Sties" joke? ;-)
