Another Newbie

Been lurking around the forum a while waiting for my plastic. Finally it has arrived. Wish it had come a couple days earlier, BEFORE I HAD TO GO TO HOUSTON. Man, that is a different place than this small Northeast Texas town I live in. Thanks for this great forum, I am sure I will have some questions as the days go by.

Congratulations! and welcome to the forum. You have defiantly come to the right place. There are a lot of good people here and they are willing to help you. I know what you mean about them big 'ole towns... I have to go the Dallas several times a year and that is definatly different from out here in West Texas!
