Generally speaking we are much smarter than your average bear We also have more introverts than the general population.

Seems like we have a higher than average number of children with special needs.

We're totally not hip. Just a bunch rich white people. *shudder* When we first moved back to Florida, I kept calling my sister to complain that I missed my range of friends from Phoenix. Around here, most of the people I was meeting were rich white women. It was so boring that I kinda started stalking any new, different people I'd encounter. Went to buy some lawn furniture off Craigslist and was delighted to discover the sellers were an adorable gay couple. Those poor guys, I was missing all my fun gay friends and tried so hard to bond with them over their furniture, but they just wanted the cash and for me to leave so they could get back to their fun gay life.

Race is a hard thing to know about someone from a message board. Unless someone specifically mentions their race, you really can't be sure. Occupations seems to come up much more frequently. Or they post a picture of their (previously discussed biological) kid. Or they utilize the handy dandy cartoon avatar feature (yes, not a guarantee, but most likely they have an avatar that represents them.)

I can think of three or four medical coders on here, including myself. I feel that that's quite a high percentage for such a small profession. We also have a diverse group of medical types/research types.

I guess that is why I never thought it odd that we had so many

What about race, or age, or marrital status, or number of kids?I don't know about race. I think most of us are older & our running days are over. Really though, just as in life, what color skin you have doesn't matter. It's what's in your head & your heart. The whole race thing to me is a waste of time. I also think that sooner or later all men will realize it. Our true enemy is women. After all they are the one's that really drive us crazy! (Push up bra's, short skirts & I have a headache on their (TTWAG) lips). Grrrrrrr! I like your, ummm, high spirits, Tex. If we weren't both married folk, I'd invite you to meet me at the corner.

Forked tongues, I can stand. But if any of you have forked tails, then I have to run as fast as my dinomobile will take me.

If I asked if I could meet you I'm pretty sure that my wife would let me. I would be the one standing there with a whole bunch of boxes around me. Damned, I just thought it over & it wouldn't work. She would also make me take the puppy!

Nope, that won't work. I'd hate to see you on the corner with a bunch of boxes and a hungry pup. Best just to "smile." I'm sitting here smiling right now .

I think we're less diverse than the actual population. Every time I think someone is african american, it turns out they are actually white. We're totally not hip. Just a bunch rich white people. *shudder* Darryl: So . . . we're just a couple of white people? Elaine: I guess so. (Pause) Wanna go to the Gap? Darryl: Sure!

Most people would probably guess that a money message board would have more men than women. I wonder if women handle the family finances these days. Sad, but my grandmother's definition of a "good" husband was one who didn't beat you and handed over his paycheck every week.

YM changed since MSN days. We used to get much more diverse crowd back then. that's b/c we had feeder articles sending people there from What's-her-Name....so we'd pick up new members all the time, it's become a little stale (IMHO) recently.
