Hi folks,
Thanks for all of the well wishes. Jason is still setting me up with all of the privileges, so I don't have the ability to delete or edit posts yet. Unfortunately, one of our new members has taken the opportunity to include a bit of nudity in his first post on the "Can't get a Snake" thread. If you're offended by such, don't flip through that thread until Jason has had a chance to remove it.
I think in general, though, we have such a friendly and polite forum that my main job will just be to move the occasional thread from one folder to another

. I consider it a real honor to be one of the moderators on THIS forum, and I look forward to watching it grow and prosper with each of your help. Please send me PMs if there is anything I can do, but realize that I was probably chosen for my willingness to help with snake issues... definitely not for my computer saavy. I think this will be an excellent chance for me to learn more about moderating, though. Best regards and thanks again,
Rick
