Reintroductions and Announcements
Well it has definitely been a while since I have been on here, I signed on today and had an unread message from SimplyAngelic from June…. OOPS! Sorry I missed the big 2nd Meet up, Maybe next year, So for those of you that don’t know me, I’m Adam I am 25 years old and I live in Indianapolis, Indiana GO COLTS! I have traveled to many places around the country and to about 7 countries in Europe. I love to Camp, Boat, Drink with my friends, meet new people and most of I love to Travel.
So where has Adam been for the last year…. Well I guess I have some big news about the life of Adam. I quit my “real” Job about six months ago and have been working full time as a Bartender again, I’m trying to save up money and pay some bills off before… and this is the big news I move out of Indiana. I’m planning on moving to Florida in March!
So that’s me sorry I haven’t been around a lot, I read over a lot of the new posts and it looks like there are a lot of new people on the boards, I look forward meeting a lot of you.

Welcome back Adam. Good to hear you're still alive & ticking. Other than bartending, what've you been up to?
Before you head south, you MUST stop by Columbus & see us again!

Good to see you back around Adam...my favorite smack talking NFL nemesis 
Just in time to talk smack before our death match a few weeks from now!
I'm in Columbus now too, so if you swing down here we can give each other shit in person.
