RB I don't know if you noticed when you signed up on CB but there is a whole section devoted to rude things called The Blue Room, which I think would be right up your alley ;)
Its called the 'darkside' coz the site is still under construction, no proper lightbulbs or running electricity just yet but they're making do with wax candles and lanterns for now... no hard feelings though, everyone's very cheerful about it all.
rugeleyboy, there are members over there that are middle, creeping into old-age. They seem to cope perfectly well, maybe you just needed a little help and guidance to get your foot in the door?
