A belated welcome aboard! =)  Hope all is going well with you today...

Welcome, Jo! Glad you could join us. :D

Please consider joining a group to meet people and talk about anything that's on your mind, Hang With Friends. You might also like Women Atheists, Female Atheists, and possibly Feminist Atheists.

I also recommend Eco-Logical and Climate Concerns, since Colorado's climate is changing so drastically. There's a post about how the Colorado Rockies are changing in the Wildlife group.

After you've searched for topics of interest in "Groups" above and in the "Forums", don't forget to look at recent activity which hides along the right margin of the page all the way at the bottom.

Welcome.  always interesting to see a female with the name.  There are plenty of Joe's wandering around all over the place, but not many Jo's, for some reason.  I wonder why.  Great name.

How do things look over there, in Colorado?  I never know what to think about the state.  On the one hand, it seems like a fairly liberal state.  On the other hand, half of the crazy, fundamentalist, gay-hating mega-churches that I know of are in the state.  The Colorado mega-church preachers seem to be a lot of the ones that make it to the national stage and make it into national news, for some reason.

Admittedly, I didn't know anything about Ted Haggard until after his drug-fueled, gay-prostitute scandal.

Hi Jo
