Subject: RE: Mudcat FAQ - Newcomer's Guide From: wdyat12 Date: 12-Feb-01 - 08:06 PM Hello Mucatters and Guests, Before I bury myself deeper into the threads, I thought it best to introduce myself to you all. My "real" name is Peter Woodruff aka wdyat12. I live in Bath, Maine with other Mudcatters. I'm 53 and work as a maintenance mechanic at Bath Iron Works. I taught art with middleschoolers for several years until I had a nervous breakdown. I'm playing hooky from work tonight waiting for my pipes to thaw out. I lost my furnace a month ago and have been heating with wood. You can catch my debut on Episode 65. I fell off Anet Station on Musicmatch and landed here on Realplayer. Please don't ask me how I did that, but I'm glad I did. Mudcat Cafe Radio is the greatest show on the planet as far as I'm concerned. As we get to know each other better, you will see that I enjoy a good laugh, but I also have a serious side (not a mean serious side). I will contribute as much relevant information to the show as I can. My immediate interests include good friends, good music, and good wine. Not necessarily in that order. I can't spell good and I rarely proofread, but I will if I'm told to do so. Other interestas include playing my guitar, my computer, archaeology, scuba diving, hiking, photography, painting, fishing, enjoying other peoples' pets, and creative no mess bachelor cooking. TV almost ruined my life, so I go other places now. I'm currently writing chapter two of my steamy, trashy internet romance unless I'm told not to do so. I would like to thank everyone who steered me to this thread. wdyat12

Good - we won't mention that until you're Seriously - welcome and hope you enjoy yourself. Most of the denizens here are harmless - and those who aren't are mostly dangers to themselves. |

13 Feb 01 - 12:15 PM (#397097) Subject: RE: BS: Welcome wdyat12 From: wdyat12 Thanks Folks for the Warm Welcome! CarolC in answer to your question, I first tried "Woody" as a username 'cause that's what they call me at work. However, I was denied access 'cause that handle had already been taken. I condensed "Woody" to "wdy" and added 12 'cause it looked good to me and I usually don't get on Mudcat until I get home from work at 12 midnight(unlees I'm playing hooky.) So, I guess if you need a mental image of me think "Woody at 12" or you can keep the one you have of me now. (I'm playing hooky tonight.) Thanks again Folks, wdyat12 |
