    Hi

    Hi, can someone introduce me as the new foreign exchange kid? Or maybe one of those support group intros. Hello, my name is Russell. I'm from Chicaaago... And I'm addicted to Scrappin'. It was innocent at first, started out in my sports car. Some wire here, some aluminum there. It got so bad I bought a truck last month to feed my addiction. I've made 4 trips to my local yard. About 600 to 800 pounds of mixed steel each trip in addition to various other non ferrous and managed to sell 60 lbs of e waist all in my first month while working a full time job. This forum is great and hopefully we can all help see each other through our problems.

    Hello Russell.....
    Take it one day at a time.

    Remember it works if you work it, your worth it so work it!

    We have coffee and donuts in the back please no smoking inside.

    See me after the meeting and I will see if we can hook you up with a sponsor.

    Welcome Russell. We needed another member with a sense of humor. You can see from your other welcome posts that no one but you and I have one.

    Hi Russell, welcome!
