On a serious note Monkey (FYI my alter ego is Trunkmonkey so we're brethren of sorts). I, for one, could care less how old you are, what you sound like on vox, how 'good' you are, etc..
As long as you've got a good attitude towards everyone and want to have fun even if it's something goofy like doing a jeep raid (which we really need to get organized one night) you and I are golden.
As much of a clown as I am on these boards I do take flying and fighting seriously but I can laugh at myself when I do something horribly stupid and I enjoy the game. More than the game I enjoy the people and getting to know them.
Cap (Laverne) and I (Shirley) have a lot of laughs when we find each other face to face on opposing sides.
Glad you joined us bud. <S>
