I'm confused again. It's probably just me.
But welcome. Stick around, there's a lot of good info to be found here. What are some of your favorite cigars?
Congrats on the little girl.
The Welcome me was just a title it does not mean anything other then that.
I like Punch, H.Upmman, Monticristo, Hoya De Monterey, Excalibur, and Heminingway.
Well Nick from North Carolina, congrats on the upcoming birth of your daughter. I saw where she is due on 2/21, which is excellent. Great things have happened before on that date. Like me being born. Being a little Pisces on the cusp of Aquarius, she'll have to work extra hard keeping her feet grounded and her head outta the clouds, and she should take care in choosing her relationships. However, she will most likely be a genius, a natural conversationalist, a gifted artist, beautiful, and have the singing voice of an angel.
You on the other hand, are kinda fuckin' weird. Or maybe minimalism is just your thing. If you're not sure what I mean, take a look at some other intros for reference and go from there.
At any rate, welcome to the board. From me.

Wow basil I have never felt so welcome to anything in my life. Forgive me for not giving an intro that meets your standards.
Try using words, you know putting letters together in groups.

He did; he used a common way of shortening phrases/words in English literature. It's similar to a contraction, but instead of combining two words into one with an apostrophe, it shortens one word to a letter or more with the use of an apostrophe (though the apostrophe isn't always needed; see below).
The 's'what = that's what.
"Tis" is a popular example of this, in fact, it became so ubiquitous that people stopped putting the apostrophe for it altogether. Another common one today is 'nother, as in a "whole 'nother deal."
For more on this and other interesting but not oft (oops, I just did it, "oft" is another example) used grammatic idiosyncrasies, consult your basic college level English Grammar.
BTW, welcome; we're sticklers for knowing proper grammar and treating the established community with respect.
