Allow me to introduce myself

Hello all, I got the nickname Ronzo in college. I am a Carpenter in Las Vegas Nevada.
I started reading "Factotum" on a job that I was working overtime on. Hank is my kind of writer. I watched "Born into this", a doc about him and that really put the hook in me. I have been reading and collecting his books ever since.

Welcome Ronzo; you sound like a man of wealth and taste.

I'm still upset that your mother didn't name you Fonzie. I doubt that I'll ever get over that particular betrayal.

Welcome Fonzie...I mean, Ronzo!- Yes, Born Into This, is a great documentary...

Hi Ronzo, welcome.
As long as you play here, the girls will serve free drinks.

Thank you for the compliment. I don't know how tasteful reading Bukowski is but I get some weird looks when I read his books at work. When asked what I am reading I invariably say that it a self help book.
I enjoy several of the " beat" authors, Henry Miller,Vonnegut,even Burroughs. Brutal self appraisal does have it's advantages, it makes it easier to not take myself so seriously.

Hey! No one ever told me that! What have I been missing?

It's because you're from Mayberry. We didn't want to shock you.

Welcome Ronzo, and thanks for outing hoochmonkey for being a Happy Days fan. Now he makes more sense.

Enjoy yourself here.

Well, you aren't in Las Vegas. So - no free drinks.

I'll take the bait, seeing how I'm fishing right now. How did you get the name "Ronzo?" That's a new one for me.

Welcome to the (fill in blank, too much to list) Buk site on the planet. Everything and everyone is here, including you.

Perhaps "Gonzo" and "Bozo" were already taken...

was it Fonzo or Ronzie?
you're welcome anyway, what do you drink?
you need to get it on another thread, welcome Ronzo.

I've seen naked girls before. Really!

Not like these.

I joined the Shriners as a clown for their fundraisers with a few guys from my crew. One of the older guy's loved those Bonzo movies from the fifties and "Ronzo goes to college", and it stuck. It stuck so hard that it's close to thirty years later and I still hear Ronzo at the union meetings.

Well, technically, they're not completely naked. So they don't count.

Besides, the pic is too small.

It's small, but you can tell they have pretty eyes.

And the second from the right has really cute knees.

Ronzo, I'm sorry I have distracted everyone on your thread.

I apologize as well. This is your intro. Not our playground.

Hope you're not too upset.

Oh what the hell let's party for the new guy.

hey, isn't the 4th from left ASHLEY OLSEN? - and right next to her PARIS H.?

Wow, roni? you were looking at their faces?
Those are just wanna' bees. Some old fat guy told most of them they were going to be stars, so they blew him.
#4 looks more like Scarlet Johanson.



Oh gosh Ronzo, I'm sorry.

I think that's Wynonna Judd on the left.

Wait, don't tell me. . . you learned how to type in Lesbian chat rooms too! What a coincidence!

I think they're all dudes. Even Wynnona.
