welcome to the boards! we love new people here, except the guy called dimitrispearljam but dont worry he doesnt like anyone love you dimi! youll have a blast here dont worry. just a word of warning, this place if pretty addictive. once you realize that youve found the place where people dont just understand your pj addiction but are just as or more addicted that you are, its like finding home!

And I just want to add a Welcome to the AET PKTrekGirl :wave: I've found this place to be pretty awesome. It was the first band/tv show -related board that I ever joined, and it is still, by far, the best. A lot of fabulous characters around here, a few I've met in real-life and many more I look forward to meeting someday. I hope you enjoy your experiences here.
So I guess now I'm supposed to ask a question. In your opinion, do you think this board is welcoming to new people? Or is it cliquish and/or pretty harsh? I ask this in seriousness, because I have been on both types of boards and would just assume skip the latter type. Pearl Jam has been a favorite band for a very long time...and I wouldn't want a negative experience with fandom to color that. In other places, I have seen fans of other bands, TV shows, movies, you name it, just suck the joy out of the experience for others who happen upon them, and so I have become wary of getting involved with any sort of fan groups. Especially when something means a lot to me.
So what can a newcomer here expect?
According to BD, and this is very good advice, . . .
If you are looking for a good laugh, the AET is your place
If you are looking trade some PJ stuff then Lost Dogs is your place
If you are looking to increase your blood pressure because of non PJ related discussion, then A moving Train is your place
If you are looking to increase your blood pressure because of PJ related discussion, then The Porch is your place
If you want to follow everyone reviewing the tours and getting their blood pressure up because their show was better than the other guys show (if they tour) then Given To Fly is your place
The rest is pretty self explanatory
Have fun!!!

2 weeks ago, We took out 12 popple trees that were very close to the cabin.. I am STILL in the process of cutting them all up and making the area not look like a bomb went off.. And yes, Saturday I planted about 15 new trees to replace them.. Mostly maple and pine.. all less than a foot tall
do you enjoy work like this as I do?

This isn't my career.. I am just playing in the yard of the cabin up north..
I work as an automotive mechanic.. I chose it because I love to work with my hands and am a great problem solver.. I love the challenge of accurate diagnosis.. I am not really a car lover though
what do you do?
