    This place is addictive!

    As part of a 30 member a cappella men's singing group, we did a short tour over the weekend. I didn't have much internet access, and as a result I didn't get to log on to this sight much. I tell you, I MISSED IT!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! After 3 days without much activity, I spent most of my morning " catching up" with the site! So maybe I am addicted??? But if I am, at least it to a good "learning site" as this. Most people would consider it a time waster, but I have learned so much by reading! So thanks to all of you who make this place what it is.

    Yep, I know the feeling. I am here once or twice nearly every day, lately.

    Addictive, your crazy, there's nothing addictive about this site, and the $1,000's I have spent to save money is nothing more than rumors. But the people around here are a bit sketchy, be afraid, very afraid! They will turn you into a lead zombie.

    Yep. I'm a cast away too. I'm here ALOX too. Sometimes My keyboard gets all mouldy and I have to use handles on it. I pour coffee from a Lee ladle and measure my sugar from a powder flask. But all is ok. I am still in denial so I don't really notice it much.

    I spend more time on here than actually casting.

    I'm not addicted!!!!!!?
    Those who choose violence as a first option are typically confronted by somebody else using violence as a last resort.

    Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.

    It wasn't that long ago that I had no idea what you guys were talking about when you threw around mold numbers. Now it's like watching the digital version of "the matrix" - what i used to see as meaningless numbers I now see as molds, loob grooves, and boolits.

    It certainly is addicting. I visit this site more than any other. I also learned more here than any other website/forum and met a lot of friendly and knowledgeable fellows willing to share what they know. I'm grateful for having stumbled in the door.

    It isn't addicting, it is just something to occupy my time until the timer goes off on the oven with the PC boolits. Oh wait, where did I learn how to do that?
