I'm a doodler -- cartoons and comic book art, mostly, including atheist webcomics. I'll share some once I have such privileges, here. :)
I adopted this username recently when I was (unfairly IMO) banned from DemocraticUnderground.com forums, while the religious trolls are given free rein to put their bigotry on open display and attack individuals. (Much blame goes to their rightfully maligned jury system.) My revenge was to create my own website and start looking for more welcoming and productive discussion forums, and since then my revenge site has sort of turned into my blog with social and forums (though others can have blogs on it, too -- it's a WP/BP network like Freethoughtblogs). Check it out at bannedatheists.us if you're interested. You can see my toons there, too (I'm realname Joseph, BTW).
I'm still questing and networking and... now I'm getting ready to move for the second time -- fleeing Misery, I mean Missouri, for the flaming West (northern Colorado) with my wonderful GF and our two dogs, three cats, two birds. From there, we will trek back to Taos, New Mexico where my two teenage sons live until I finish my degree at UNM (pure math bachelor's). Then off to the Pacific Northwest! Whee! Life's a real ride. Real real.
And, yes, mostly happy.
Hello and welcome to HAF, Joseph. Thank you for your introduction. It seems you'll be moving around quite a lot in the near future; I suppose that's one way to cut down on the clutter.

Good to see you. I can relate to your username. You will find this a congenial and jovial spot.
Welcome aboard, glad to have you
Greetings and welcome, Joseph. Beware the dreaded Grey One, Otherwise you're pretty safe.
Welcome! I'm new here, too. It seems like a nice place so far, but I'm easy to please.
