Thanks.

I love discussion forums so I was surprised that I hadn't come across this one. It looks good. I can tell by the number of members with 10K+ posts. There seems to be a more mature crowd here as well.

Cronologically we are more mature....

yes in all seriousness it is a great crowd here, I hope you find something of interest, we always welcome newbies and their points of views. We quite simply ask for respect of all members and beyond that the forum runs well.

Do enjoy yourself.

Cheers

Take care,

Gordon.

Yep.. That would be us. Welcome Heimdall.

Heimdall

Heimdall is the god of light, the son of nine mothers (variously given as the daughters of Geirrendour the Giant or of Aegir). He was born at the end of the world and raised by the force of the earth, seawater and the blood of a boar. Because of his shining, golden teeth he is also called Gullintani ("gold tooth"). His hall is Himinbjorg, The Cliffs of Heaven, and his horse is Gulltop. Heimdall carries the horn Gjallar.

He is the watchman of the gods and guards Bifrost, the only entrance to Asgard, the realm of the gods. It is Heimdall's duty to prevent the giants from forcing their way into Asgard. He requires less sleep than a bird and can see a hundred miles around him, by night as well as by day. His hearing is so accurate that no sound escapes him: he can even hear the grass grow or the wool on a sheep's back. At the final conflict of Ragnarok he will kill his age-old enemy, the evil god Loki, but will die himself from his wounds.

As the god Rig ("ruler"), Heimdall created the three races of mankind: the serfs, the peasants, and the warriors. It is interesting to note why Heimdall fathered them, and not Odin as might be expected. Furthermore, Heimdall is in many attributes identical with Tyr.

You sound interesting.

Well... not just Minks, I suppose. It's called ForumGarden now, but it started out as the Missouri State Board Asylum for the Bewildered's Community Outreach Medium, or msbabcom.mo.gov - State funding dried up when it was realized that 80% of the posters here were actually retired and, well, to be blunt, rather more living in the past than just straightforwardly deranged, and that a library in Springfield would do more good where it was needed. The domain name was changed, the threads and the clients remain the same, we even promoted two of the patients to run the administrative side.

So, yes, as you perceptively remarked, "mature". Good word. I'm in my prime, Minks is obsolete and Snooze is so far regressed back into pre-history that she's wearing Court Dress from before the British sailed for home.
