Greetings, all - I'm new, but I've been reading the forum for some time now. I am a guy, married, and no youngsters. Neither my wife nor I ever wanted children, so we just simply didn't have any. I always encourage my wife to think for herself and she does a good job of it.

Explanation of my "handle" here on the board - I am moderately interested in reading about gangsters from the Prohibition Era, and since I am a bit rotund, someone once told me I ought to be "Louie The Lump." So, I gave it a "wise guy" twist and got "LouieDaLump."

In my earlier years, there was a lot of pressure on me to "get busy and start having children." Well, since I didn't want any, and since it was MY decision, not "theirs," I just ignored them. I guess I've always been a rebel of sorts.

I don't know how much posting I'll be doing, but the item about the lady leaving the Catholic church due to its stance on CF just moved me.


Old, fat, stiff, and slow.

Hello, it's always nice to recruit another - I mean, find another like-minded person! (Just kidding!) It is nice to have another male perspective on the board!
