I was pointed in this direction by 300Section and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Wendy, aka Dewaltgirl, and yes, I'm one of the crazy girls with the "We're not booing, we're Ruuuing" shirts. Yes, I am migrating over from the "official" boards, but I promise, I'm not a bad egg. A little about me? I live in Charlotte but drive up to Raleigh quite often for games. I became a Canes fan when I moved to NC from Texas a few years ago and my favorite Cane is Justin, but there's not really one on the team I don't like. The new guys, Ruutu, Patty & Corvo are quickly becoming favorites too, but none of them will ever replace Justin. I travel quite a bit to watch hockey, as one of my friends back in Dallas and I are attempting to see the Stars play in every city in the league, and I do take pictures just about everywhere I go. I noticed that you guys have already stumbled onto my flickr account, but here's the link again and I do take pictures at every game I attend. I'm just 6 games behind right now, though I did get the ones from Saturday up so people could see the signs, shirts and Ruu's reactions. www.flickr.com/photos/dewaltgirlAnywho, thanks to 300 for the recommendation and I hope to find a "home" here. Wendy **crossing fingers that you guys don't bite**

Hello, I'm Michelle, aka Ghouliegirl and I too was referred by 300section and I am the other half of the crazy girls who was wearing "We're not booing, we're Ruuuing" shirt and poster maker!
The Ghouliegirl comes from the fact that I love zombie flicks. I'm not scary looking, at least I don't think so! I do love the more smiley options here than on the other board.
So YAY and thanks to 300Section for the link and invite over here.

Welcome girls... I'm so glad to have you.. I am also a resident Justin fan and miss him terribly but the great additions of Samsonov, Corvo, Eaves and Ruutu our GM has helped to ease my pain.. lol.. I was at the game Saturday night and saw your awesome signs and t-shirts.. that was SUCH a great idea!!! Dewalt girl you take awesome photos and I love looking through them. You two gals take your time browsing over here we have lots of history to wade through and don't be shy about starting topics on things that interest you!! Gouliegirl.. I was wondering after I saw you on the main board how your screen name was chosen thanks for explaining that. Welcome to the board of women who love hockey and the men that play it..!!!!!!!!

Hi there !
I'm Tracy...FL person, Lightning gal, and one of the token Grahame fans. I used to post every once in awhile on the main board but stopped for the most part since it became pretty hostile over there.
Dewalt, love your pics!

Thanks for the welcomes. Certainly seems like a fun group...and Mel, you don't scare me. hehe
I found this place a while back and browsed through but must say I was a little scared to join up until 300 mentioned it. I'm quite glad she did!!
Curl, thanks for the compliments on the pictures. I have to say, it's more luck through quanity than it is talent. :lol
Khabi, I work in south Charlotte, Exit 4 on 77 in fact. My company is very easy going and they make it easy for me to take off and go to games. That alone keeps me around and putting up with a bunch of crap that I normally wouldn't. Hockey will always trump misery.

and Mel, you don't scare me. hehe ... you have yet to learn, young grasshopper. I forgot to mention that I'm prone to changing CTs whenever my little heart desires. Fair warning: if you say something I find insanely funny, a version of it will prolly end up as your CT. That's the reason for some of the odd ones around here.

Dee, you need some serious counseling <G>. You're scaring my figments and it takes a lot to scare them since they don't even exist Wish my hospital was as easy-going about granting time off. Being short handed and always dealing with backlog makes time off at a premium. However, I work at home so I can decorate my desk any way I like it (currently Khabi is up against Hugh Jackman, so he's got a fight on his hands <G>).

Awwww, Deb - I don't need counseling...I just think that that's a hot-ass squirrel. ...esp. when his sittin' all pretty & browned on the grill.
