Safety and Peace, My Friends from a contemporary of Altair
Discovering THB has been a revealing joy. Thank you for introducing me to the "art of the possible"!
Having completed AC1 and 9 Sequences of AC2, it looks like I'll have to go back to square one on both games and do it with style and better planning. The brute force approach will no longer satisfy me.
At my age and limited gaming experience, the coordination required to traverse rooftops at speed without injury is a challenge, but my memories of Altair and Ezio are closer than most of this community, I'm guessing, so that is an advantage 
I'm close to 68 (birthday in May), the Xbox 360 was my first gaming machine, my other favorite games are Oblivion, Fallout 3, Forza 2 (and, to a lesser degree, Forza 3), Fable 2 and PGR3.
I play Forza 2 and 3 with a triple screen Xbox 360 setup. With 3 Xboxen, I'm also a veteran of Microsoft's repair center, with 5 visits so far. Despite this experience, I use my 360's far more than my other consoles.
I love games that reward a deep dive, and it seems this community shares my passion.
Welcome, Possum. It's nice to meet you. You've certainly come to the right place: the videos and maps are unsurpassed, the discussions are interesting and very civilized, the community is extremely friendly. I'm looking forward to hearing more from you.

You've come to the right place, GBO. Welcome to our little community.
Easy to connect, it seems.
Lisa, I think I see a koala, and I'm from Australia originally, and Rick, I spent my honeymoon in Hawaii (and other vacations), so aloha to you!
Thanks for the welcome. The videos are absolutely awesome!!
Who's Rick? *looks around*
I'm not from Australia, but I love it a lot and have visited twice. Also, I used to live in Massachusetts as well! So I guess it's a small world.
And who IS Rick? Do you know something that we don't? 
Rick was here just a while ago. Maybe he hyperblended. Now I forget what he looks like.
RICK!? OMG, I'm so confused now 
Haha, and welcome to THB forums GBO! 
Dang it, there was a Rick sighting and I missed it. I've really gotta come around more often.
Welcome aboard GBO. I think you're gonna like it here.
Wait, Rick James was here?!
im just glad that Rick Roll has never made an appearance here.

If he left without saying goodbye I guess you could call him
