But I do realize that in British English it might mean that I DON"T press anyone to speak English!!

But I live in America and here we speak American English.

Thank you for the welcome!

Too right, Tombstone. We do speak "American English".

I today took a rain check and looked around Forum Garden's Members List. I found that there are people here from several countries ... duh!

I know i have come on kinda strong since I joined what with my patriotic posts about the USA and the Marines. I make no apology for this but I realise that I may have upset some people who don't look upon the USA as favorably as I do.

Put it down to the brashness of us citizens of America ... you know we have all this stuff about 4th of July and Thanksgiving and stuff like that and of course the Twin Towers.

But I have managed to make a few friends here like Fuzzy Butt who at first was very ... like to me anyway ... hostile? but i later found out that she is a pussycat like me and was just being playful and was actually purring!

And Odie ... well she's biased cos she's also from the USA but she gave me a oh so grand welcome to FG when I really thought that I had blown it!

I sent a friends request to Hope ... not Hope6 ... a real Southern Belle ... and she accepted which means i now have three friends! Is that cool or what?

I confronted a guy called Spot whom I have only just found out is like the Enforcer here! Wow am I dumb!

And I still don't understand a word Nomad says!

So I hope that I will be accepted here because I think this is a very cool place to be!

Ryan.

:) Oh, I understand Nomad all right. It's coberst I have a communication break down with sometimes. His threads go over my head, but I do like and respect him.

I believe I already welcomed you with a welcome mat.

Glad to see you are still here with us.

Ryan. That is what makes this forum sooo wonderful. We all come from different lifestyles, backgrounds and geographical locations. we learn something here everyday. 90% of it is very good. I like different views. it keeps things hopping here. I myself wish i was more assertive. But we all are different. I say welcome. I will be on your friend list if you wish:)
