I'm a retired printer, musician and otherwise normal human. Widowed, lost my love a year ago. That's me in a nutshell.
Hello, I hate these introductions. Hope everyone is enjoying life!

Is this forum a decent place to talk or scam?

Welcome. MadMongoos6.
This is a good forum. I was new only a short time back. I've had a lot of good exchanges, and quite a bit of fun (which is important to me).

I see a lot of bots in the mix. People I enjoy people , spam and scams, not so much. Looks like a global mix of followers. Nice.

We're real... honest. Any website on the Internet has bots crawling it *constantly*... it's just that we don't get to see that on most of them. I really hope you'll enjoy your time with us. I haven't seen any spam here ever... and if a newbie comes in wanting to scam, it's always been taken care of rapidly.I see a lot of bots in the mix.

Welcome, @MadMongoose66 ! Sorry that you lost your spouse recently. Many here are also widowed, including me. This SF has a great bunch of folks and there are many topics to choose from.

Hi MadMongoose. I've been a member of this forum for a little over ten years. The forum is well moderated and there are plenty of people, and a wide variety of subforums where you can meet interesting people to discuss things that interest you.
As with most forums you will discover that people can be both kind and aggravating. That is what makes it interesting for me.

I'm so glad to have a generous welcome! Thank you. I'm in Tampa, Florida. I'm trying to get past the grief, lost my lady and my dog the same week. Sounds like a bad country song, I know. It's been a year and I coping pretty well finally. Happy in my own skin as they say.

I also enjoy songwriting as a hobby...guitar/ vocals. Perhaps we could hook up one day and collaborate on a tune.
