I'm getting very nervous about the upcoming election and thought I would look for a safe harbor of like minded mates.

Thanks for the welcome everyone  :-)  You all seem to be a lively bunch.

Yes, I'm in taxafornia.  3rd generation in fact.  I was also a Democrat a loooooong time ago, or so I thought.  Life's experiences kinda changed all that. I am definately a conservative.


I picked Dori (probably spelled wrong) from the Disney movie "Looking for Nemo".  She easily got confused, but she was brave and her heart was always in the right place.

Glad you drifted in. Let me know if you need any kelp getting around. Be careful not to anchor the moderators.

I'm doing these nautical puns on porpoise; just for the halibut.

Welcome, you're a pilgrim from an unholy land.

I've been to Taxafornia. Went to a street market, they had a bunch of hippies dancing to music with no structure and rhythm. It was awful.

Also I hope we're finished with these puns?
