Related: About this forumHello! Glad to be in the Underground ...
I'm a transplanted New Englander living in North Carolina. Go by cdogzilla online, but you can call me Chris if it's easier.
I've lived in Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island. Am a Red Sox fan, and follow both the UConn Men's and Women's basketball teams. (UConn '93)
Married, two kids (twins) & two chihuahuas.
I'm an avid reader, eagerly aniticipating the new Kim Stanley Robinson novel, out this week. Currently reading Willie Nelson's "It's a Long Story". Read Pedro Martinez's autobiography before that, and Elizabeth Warren's before that.
Been blogging at cdogzilla.net for 15 years, mostly on progressive politics, secularism, gun control, pop culture, sports, and whatever else catches my fancy. Also on twitter, LibraryThing, & flickr if you're feeling social
Regards,
Chris (AKA cdogzilla)

I think you'll like it, there's a sports group and other distractions.
I'm easily distracted ... and I think most of my first posts were in the thread about David Letterman, so I'm getting familiar with the less political areas of the site

(149,599 posts)Chris is definitely easier, so thank you for that.
I hope you'll have a great time here. I've been here for 10 plus years now, and I am majorly addicted.
There are many groups here--something for everyone. If you click on the tab at the top of the page--Forums & Groups, you'll see what we have.
Welcome!

(1 post)I can't yet start a new thread, as this is my very first post. I hope nobody minds if I hop on the coattails of this one to introduce myself. My name is Jenna, I'm 38, and I live in the DFW area. I hope to find myself welcome here.
