    You'll need to shower before you do; and diving in the shallow end is prohibited
    (except for billy as there's no real possibility of brain damage).

    Other than that, Welcome, good to have you poolside.

You've come to the right place then, as we've never (that I know of, anyway)
burned anyone at the stake for their beliefs. But do realize that I'm just speaking
literally. Metaphorically is a whole 'nother barrel of snakes, but even then,
around PigPen, they're almost always non-poisonous.

Don't I go on... but WELCOME! (I really do mean that.)

Hello and Welcome!
If you're half as good as your screen name, you'll make a fine addition to whatever we are.

@casket N orbit: And besides a "real poetry experience", you'll get stuff like this as well.

"casket N orbit" ?   ... I guess that's just another name for a Low Earth Orbit.
