I'm doing alright. Glad to see the community is active. Fire performers here in Maine are few and far between, which makes networking almost impossible. I've only met fire jugglers around here, but I'm hoping to stumble across someone in the near future.
Thanks for the welcome folks!

I'm not sure I follow. Unless 'caught by the police' is some other user's screen name, in which case, no. (Or are you subtly trying to inform me that my house is about to be raided? Uh oh.)

Welcome to HoP and don't mind the crazyness it's just normal around these parts.
Rouge be nice if the jokes get too bad then you'll scare him away tho I do think that we should give him some stick about his very masculine favorite movie.
May my balls of fire set your balls on fire

Hey Nick - welcome aboard! Yeah, don't mind the crazies - luckily you've already met the 3 biggest crazies above.
I was just popping in to warn you that with your "I am nicked" name you may become a target for the terrible trio of CQ, Gidg and General Rouge but they were too quick and have already trompled their muddy and choc milk covered selves through your otherwise fine intro thread making a mess of it. They are currently running rampant in this manner and I'm sure that sooner or later someone will make a formal complaint to the Mods and then I'll have to put my other hat on and give them a rather stern talking to.
cheers

Hah, no worries. I don't take internet forum comments to heart. I didn't get the "nick'd" association, actually, which just makes it that much funnier.
And for the record, I've yet to meet a "man" who doesn't like The Princess Bride. When that day comes, I will laugh in his face as I'm sure he either hasn't seen the movie, or is lying to save his machismo. I think macho guys are really hilarious, and I laugh at them a lot, usually uncontrolably.
Anyway, warm or not, thanks for the welcome everyone! :P

I was worried there might have been a dialect difference with the "nick'd" thing

Hardly a warm welcome with all that chocolate milk squirting around the place!
Anyway, hopefully that's all in the past now and you can settle down to some nice quiet spinning!
cheers

no, i mean, my bad joke might have been more of a dialect thing. I thought that when you initially didnt get it.

It's alright. I lit my hat on fire tonight during a public performance. It was a lot of fun. But I did a neck wrap afterwards which made the crowd "ooOOOoo!", and that made it all worth it.
