Guess I Should Introduce Myself

Been lurking for a while. I live in the Houston area in Texas, Aries, and can't vote as I'm a permanent resident but not a US citizen (Swedish citizen but lived in the US since 1973). Hope there's room here for a non-voter who is scared to death by Palin and McCain - right now I can't decide who is scariest. I actually knew about Palin before all of this, based on her environmental stance, but what has since been uncovered is truly terrifying. I also spent two weekends in Wasilla during a 3-week stint working in Anchorage - one of the people at the company owned a cabin on a lake and offered it to me for the weekend. I had a good time (this was early 90's) even if a loon scared me half to death. Really enjoy reading the blogs and the comments!

Welcome to Mudflats Forum!
Impressed that your first post was in the McCain POW topic!
There's definitely room here for you.....you've probably noticed that we have members from all parts of the world.
Looking forward to reading more of your posts...

Hmmm.... are you sure it was a loon and not just Todd P?

Thanks for the welcome! Ya know, it might have been Todd Palin - it was a high-pitched rather girly shriek. Definitely not a manly scream at all.

Yeah, those loons can be pretty scary when you first hear them. What's scarier are the loonies!
