Mostly we play by the #1 rule we learned a long time ago in Kindergarten - "Play nice" !
I was medically retired after my T.B.I., and these pages are a godsend, here I can still contribute in a useful way, and this is all good therapy! On a good day
coming to these pages is a Joy, on a fair day it's still good.
I wish you the same luck and enjoyment I have received from our fellow members. It will not take long to get you up-to speed, especially if you are comfortable
about sharing a little about yourself,(for that there is no special hurry) your special skills will be appreciated here as more people find you on these Pages/Threads!
I personally have little use for much of the Jreck out there in You-Tube
Land, I studiously avoid Single videos showing work in progress and 'look what I did!', lack of
