Just joined - couldn't resist it!

Post by Angoid »

*Newbie Alert*

I read the Thomas Covenant books as a student, and I discovered this forum some time ago, and you know? one of those things where you keep coming back and deciding "Shall I join?" so finally taken the plunge!

It looks like a friendly community around here.

When I worked at my old company, I donated my Thomas Covenant books to a little internal library that was being formed so alas! I don't have them any more :oops: but maybe this'll be encouragement to re-purchase them......

Could it be ...

Hiya Wayfriend,
Given you're in Massachusetts and I'm in the UK, it's unlikely :P

However, thanks for the welcome :)

Don't get us wrong angoid, the tank is awesome if you want to participate in the WWF of political and social commentary battling. I frequently dip a toe in the tank. I just thought forewarned would be forearmed.

Welcome to the Watch. Ignore these others. ;) The 'Tank is a safe and friendly platform for the free and frank exchange of opinion, and we'll ban anybody who deosn't freely and frankly exchange their opinions in a friendly way. :twisted:

Welcome to the Watch! Yes, the Tank is where I end up mostly posting these days, if I do post when not on Travel. I've gotten very heated in there and down right angry!!! :-x :biggrin: ... but I do learn many things. ;)
