Nice to see a few old friends here.
I hope you can upload your old avatar, as I always liked it. If not (you may want a new pic for a new beginning), I get it.

The mastering of uploading photos always takes a bit of time for me. I'm always told that photos are too large. But I'll work at it.

Hello! And Welcome!

Bronxgirl! We are thrilled you have arrived. Yes, it is all too 'beguiling!'
And I see we have Cuthbert, Lawrence A, Ziggy, Holden Is Here, Sansfin, Markfp, Masha, norfious and others have joined or revisited.

Lydecker here. Another refuge from the TCM Boards. Glad to see some familiar names already here. Let the posts begin!

Off to a good start. There's a few familiar names.

TikiSoo - I am elated to see you here! I had forgotten that you are a member.I hope this is a token of many other wonderful things.

norfious - I am sorry to say that we had little or no interaction on the TCM boards. I hope we will get along like gangbusters here. Note: I would hesitate updating your username. It was necessary some years ago that I re-register. Some factor in that process caused all of my old posts to disappear. Note 2: I was/am SansFin on the TCM forums.

Let us all hope that we see many more old friends and even some new faces in this forum now!

Have you taken the name Masha from Chekhov? I used to get confused by all the Mashas in his works. I assume you are not naming yourself for the depressing character in The Seagull!

Hello, Lost Horizons! Welcome, Feinberg and Moe Howard, Lydeker, and Gary Cooper!

It's going to be interesting to see just how far Discovery goes in reimaging and repurposing TCM.

Masha has been my nickname several times in my life. It is from folklore. The meaning ranges from: "whimsically precocious girl" to "willful brat" depending on the mother's or lover's level of exasperation.

A popular current video series captures the basic nature: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqqhZ8Fs ... R&index=26

My username on: TCM.com forums was: SansFin.

I chose a new avatar. I was at Bletchley Park in England last week and took this photo of a photo of Alan Turing.

Good choice! I'm not sure how long I'll stick with my wolfie one.
