So it's true,
I have been here for a little while, but as I am not much of a writer, coming up with something to say is not my forte. And that is compounded by the fact that I don't usually talk about myself.
Notwithstanding, I have a variety of interests that I have had over the last few centuries...
My interests are riding my motorcycles, photography, computer programming and graphics, playing my guitar, flying my quadcopter, reading and studying academia, drawing, coloring,
And then after lunch:
A FREAKIN' NAP!!!
I live in Silicon Valley in the Republic of California united States of America, and the diversity of the Hiveans on the internet just fascinates me, coming from all over the world.
@jamerussell Nice to have an #introdruceyourself after All. We love having you in the Steemterminal and your help and interaction is well appreciated.

Welcome and glad to read your introduction. My husband was computer programmer and he also loved to read. He liked sci-fi books and scary books.
First and foremost, thank you for visiting my post, but I think I should let you know, please do not upvote any post past payout as no one sees the reward, it goes back to the reward pool;
Second, this is the neatest way to contact someone and give them something of an upvote as now I have responded with an updated comment, so an upvote on this comment will do the same thing.
I take it he does not program anymore? I am currently studying programming still hahahahaha!
Um, I was looking through your old posts, and you have a very interesting past.
And condolences for your loss of your pup as well, I lost my pup on the last day of 2015, on New Years Eve. He was my saddlebag pup.
Your cards are artfully and beautifully made.
If you are interested, we are in The Terminal on Discord, here is an invitation if you would like to stop by:
My condolences for your loss in 2013; I work with a beautiful young lady who lost her husband a few years ago, her name is @thekittygirl on Hive. https://discord.gg/XZGPGpz
We would be honored to meet you!
Nice to meet you earlier today in PYPT.... still think you look like a bad sort ;-)
Looking forward to reading more of your stories ......
Hehehe! Soon...Hahaha, thank you @metametheus! I will work on getting something else written up, but just do yourself a favor and don't hold your breath, okay friend??? Although I don't have any blue friends yet!!!
Jamesy!!!!
Hehehe you are so cool. That pic of you is BOSS!!!!
You're one of the sweetest men on Steemit... For sure! I love how you always look out for me and send me love when I'm away. Hehehe
And I had NO idea you played guitar!!! I want to see.this on video! Do you sing too?? Hehehe get those lungs better so we can hear you :)
Hugs to you my Jamesy.
Yes I play a little bit, but I do NOT sing...did that once years ago in front of people, and it turned out it was almost as bad as the incident that I was treated with at the senior ball in high school...total freakin' disaster that scarred me in more than one way...Thank you @dreemsteem!!!

Posted using Partiko Android
I am looking at it while I'm on my desktop, and I tried to log in with the "free signup"
I am at the "invite code" and it said to send an email to Partiko Android, and it says "I need an invite code for Partiko Android and I sent it in, this was yesterday; I am looking at this step right now...
It just sent the message...I have no answer in my email from yesterday, and none for just now...
You can login Partiko using your Steem account and active key directly!

I know I could, just didn't want to for two reasons, 1)didn't want my steemit key on my phone, and 2)it's a million digits long...hehehe
Thanks for the info, they should have just given me the code like they said they would in my email, would have been so simple...
Welcome to Steemit jamerussell. The official FAQ can be found here and has A LOT of information https://steemit.com/faq.html - Also remember, Steemit is just ONE of the sites built that uses Steem the blockchain. You should also check out DTube and DSound for starters and if you're a gamer, Steem Monsters! There are many other cool apps but I can't list them all here, there's just too many! But I'd also like to mention Steempeak, it's a better blogging platform that has a lot of cool features.

Thank you @ashtv! Hehehe!!!
well Hello!!
You do know you are a better writer then you know. Just write like you talk. Stop thinking about what it might look like when someone reads it. Practice is the key.
and you don't have to talk about yourself. You can make the things you saw the focus of the post.
Why ride a bike? how does it make you feel? what is the best thing about naps?
How to pack a bike for a long trip.
best rain gear to have when riding a bike.
why Do bikers wear leather? just to look cool? Why do bikers have patches? are they sewn on by hand?
Lot's of things to try that you know but not about you :D
Oh, and LOVED this post!!!! Congrats on the followthrough!!!
Nice Bike :D
I love you @snook 🤗
I can answer several of those questions really easily...
Why ride? Feel free, especially after the bike is paid for...
Best thing about naps? Waking up...
How to pack for long trip? Take credit card...
Best rain gear? A house...
Why leather? Makes someone look bad ass!
Hahahahahaha
I still have some posts I am supposed to be writing, like riding off and leaving my wife standing there with her leg halfway over the bike...
and the three wishes one...
etc etc etc...
I'll work on this, thanks Snook!!!Thank you, @snook for your very kind and inspiring words!
