This One's For Newbies!
This has been done before and it's been fun.It hasn't been done for awhile, so maybe it's time to do it again.
So.
Here's the deal...
Judging by the number of views on the blogs, it seems that a number of folks look in, but haven't yet joined the conversations.
....
Perhaps y'all are shy.
Or unsure what to comment on a certain topic.
Well, newbies...this one's for YOU!
There IS no particular topic!
Just jump in, introduce yourselves & join in.
...
Don't worry that you might make yourself sound foolish
Many of us do that on a remarkably consistent basis.
...
Not ME, of course
But some do 
And y'all old hands at this...give the Newbies a great...
blogs...
C'mon -
This is your chance to jump into the deep end of the pool.
Or maybe just dip your toe in to test the waters.
As a special incentive bonus...the first five Newbies will receive a set of dandy virtual steak knives.

I'm a sheep
You've been here for quite some time.
You're just trying to score a set of virtual dandy steak knives.
Well...it ain't gonna work!
I am Kal-de-Frog.
I am a newbie.
Please be gentle with me,
even when I am making myself sound foolish.
Mclee do you reckon (i dont know mind) but is it people peeping in not registered or signing in the makes the viewings go up.
Maybe we should have a world march each waving a banner for CS
As Molly sez, she's a sheep, and I wanna be a sheeps too
I have a very low IQ...no mind of my own...I can't write can't spell and don't know what to say.
I'm also very shy and don't know how to socialise with humans.
Who knew?!
Kinda figured Mimi to show up. All you have to do is have the slightest rattle of a steak knife...here Comes MIMI!
She must have like what...a hundred sets of 'em by now?

Innocentia almost snuck one in on me there.
But I checked. She's posted a blog.
Sorry. Your subtle steak knife gambit has been shown up.

Nothing wrong with Kalpataru, you understand, but Kal-da-Frog would be a really good username.
It carries the implied promise that kissing one so usernamed would result in getting a princess...
Molly? SHY?!
Either that or...
I'm not new but I want to welcome all the newbies. Wait where are they Mic?
Anyways have a nice Friday everyone.
Good weekend to you Mother Theresa....
Still don't and never will trust any female with a sharp tool
Luke, would you prefer a blunt knife?
One thing for sure is they're who you see, very transparent and what you see is what you get. No boring days.
Why is it that the blogs are not in the order of the newest up on top, but in order of the last commented?
Which means that old blogs can be resurrected and brought up on top just by adding a comment???
Another question: since we had the new format, after writing the blog we used to go to "edit" to change the colour, text font etc.. - which was lovely!
But now, it doesn´t work anymore and we can only put the text in colour and size, but not with edit.
Help please, I am a newbie!
I love it going into Last Commented straight away. That shows the active blogs
And I prefer uncoloured blogs too, as the ones with a coloured background are harder to read, and I usually don't bother
(no steak knife
But unlike Zs, you'll get them handle facing out
Meh, that's nothing.
I thought you meant this one
For such a small place, we have such different weather conditions. It has been lovely here all day. Sun is shining outside as I write.
That's a good question.
Yes. A very good question, indeed.
Truth to tell, the response to this has been a mite underwhelming compared to other times it's been done.
Seems that I still have a few virtual sets of dandy steak knives here.
What to do?
O.K.
How 'bout this?
If any of y'all CAN'T REMEMBER being here before, maybe we can stretch the rules enough to get you a set.
If Mimi has read this far, I'm pretty sure she'll show up for the 'first time that she knows of as best she can recall' any time now...
There's one set given out.
a shy watcher would think, wow this bunch are blatant liars
No-one EVER offered me knives when I was new, huh.
