Now that the first of you have been officially greeted by the nook greeter, I'll express my hope that you'll enjoy your stay and continue to post as often as you'd like. It may seem slightly cliquish at first, because a lot of us already know each other, but it's really not cliquish at all -- or rather, it's a clique that you are welcome and invited and encouraged to join. Just dive in and you'll be swimming with the current in no time.

In that spirit, I'd like to propose a new thread: "outtakes" from the FAQ.

"What advice do you have for improving my nook experience?"

1. Be very nice to Conehead.
2. If you choose to debate with TEd, you do so at your own risk.
3. If you choose to ask Bruce if he's seen the Nields before, you do so at your own risk.
4. Please bookmark this FAQ in case you're ever tempted to ask the nook how to get copies of "Hoxsey Street" and "Live at IH."
5. Every time you type the word "yay," you have to send $1 to Rhiannon. It was the best deal we could get. "Yay for yay" is $2, but you can get a 50c discount if you tell MJC the backstory.
6. You have to refer to FalconRidge as FRFF. No one knows why, but you have to.
7. We think you should buy Bern a drink.
8. If ever you decide to leave the nook, please remember to send us a snotty, judgmental last post telling us how immature we are.

"What hair products does Katryna use?"

Only her hairdresser knows for sure, but if you find out, please let us know. Please.

"Is Trapper John really a Dirty Old Man?"

No. Trapper John is actually a very dignified, refined, witty husband and father. So don't hesitate to leave your window shades open and the lights on when you disrobe. No... move a little to the left. There. That's good.

"Why didn't anyone respond to my post?"

It may have had too much Nields content. Try removing some of the Nields content and post again.

"Is MJC a smart-ass?"

We're not sure about the 'smart' part.

cheers
