Reply #87: I heard about DU because some right -wing talkshow host was

[libodem]

trashing it. I didn't even know what a blog was. My son built me a computer and I hooked up to the DSL I've been paying for, for years and went straight to DU. It took several days to be able to log in because I have hotmail and I had to be cleared. It took me several months to reach 1,000 posts because I usually comment and move along. I was very pleased to find so many like minded folks here. The lounge is funny as hell. DU gives me a place to vent my frustrations. I like the exchange of information and learn a lot every day. Although I don't have any 'buddies' I feel close to may of the unique 'personalities' especially in the lounge. They seem like friends even though they probably don't have a clue who I am. I really do love you guys.
