When I first got on here just a few short months ago, I spent time watching and learning. There are still many things I can't do. I learned quickly to find a thread that was similar to what I wanted and posted "private" replies to those I thought could quietly answer my questions. They were all great and I've learned that some questions are meant for quiet dialogue. It's just manners.
And because of your manners Kathy you are still here :^) I

I started out posting quietly, listening and learning (I don't like the term "lurk", sounds like "The Blair Witch Project!"). "
As time went on,I was stunned and enchanted by the wit, knowledge, cuteness, friendship and laughter at FR. I love it here and am slightly addicted to it.
((cough, snort, help!, help! I need therapy!)).
Newbies are treated gently here atleast in my experience.
And that's "Huge" and "series" !!!
See y'all
