My name is Jimmy and I'm an agnostic humanist and a naturalist :) I'm 30 years old and have been irreligious for almost half my life. I don't like to be preachy about my lack of religion in my life, I'm a lover of life and a go with the flow kind of guy and I don't care what you believe or don't believe in, as long as your're a good person:) I love people from all walks of life!! Maybe that's why I love drawing portraits so much!!! I signed up to this site because I would define myself as rather happy, agreeable, outgoing, and not religious, and it seemed like a sensible thing to do. I don't have all the answers in life and don't expect to, but I'm not going to let that get me down. Live and let live!!! :) I also enjoy spending time with my friends and family(especially my two little daughters-my greatest little bundles of joy), spending time in nature(walking, jogging, hiking, camping,etc), reading about science, and experiencing new things.
Enough about me. What do you like to do?
Oooh. Do I spy another arteest? Welcome to the forum, Jimmy! ;D
Welcome to the forum Jimmy. Nice intro, you sound like you've got it pretty sorted, I'll think you'll enjoy it here and find plenty of likeminded folks
Helloooo!
Judging by the lack of grammatical and spelling errors in your into (I'll let 'your're' go - it covers every base!), I'd say *your're* not American. Am I right?
If you are, welcome to the forum anyway ;D
[Awaiting Yank-based indignance]
It's a bit like Hotel California in here - You can check-out any time you like but you can never leave.
Have fun...

Yea, I dabble in it for fun. I love drawing animals and people in realism but lately I've been experimenting with my more cartoony style.
Fresh blood. Good.

What was wrong with his use of "you're." It seemed like the correct usage to me. "So long as "you are" a good person... Seems to work. I'm confused.

Ahh... thank you, I feel like an idiot. This is why I always have things misspelled. I spelled it correctly in my quote and still didn't catch the difference between the two.
Welcome, Jimmy :)
And Scissorlegs, I am definitely indignant, albeit unjustifiably.

So much for my theory! I'll have to find some other sweeping generalisation with which to insult you all ;D
You may give me your best derogatory sweeping generalisation about the Brits in recompense...

Eh... Something tells me I've been reported several times before, but I can't remember ever having one of my posts force-modded.
'Sides, the mods like me well enough, so no harm done. You should direct your sorry at them for minor and accidental abuse of the report function in stead :P

And The Asmo, he doesn't stir trouble either - it just revolves around him due to his immense travitational* pull
*
Travity is a force, suspected to be caused by traviton particles, that attracts positively charged trouble to a negatively charged Asmo.

As the saying goes, "God made me a skeptic. Who are you to question his wisdom?" :D
And it seems that when people start asking the hard questions, that's when the trouble starts! Mostly because around HAF, the questions go into derails on Asmo's world domination. ;D
:o The Asmo MOST CERTAINLY did NOT! How DARE you?!
...Oh wait... :-\

Thanks for the welcome! I, my Yankee friend, am from wondrous Western NY State; also from a small town. Us Yankees need to stick together, if only to embattle raw clay material and its artistically applied counterpart!!! :D
Ny huh? How is it? I've wondered what it would be like to live in NY especially the big apple. Small town life is nice and boring, but it gets a little TOO boring sometimes.

Mostly I love it, there are TONS of outdoorsy stuff to do. Although, I often wished we lived in a more metropolitan area, where there is MUCH more to do. Maybe when our kids are older.......
