Arriving From the West

[Jerry Raia]

From the land of earthquakes, fires, floods and droughts I want to thank the good people who run this site for inviting me to this spot. I live in Los Angeles and I am pilot full time and a computer consultant part of the time. You have seen me here as Lasher in the past (and maybe again after they read my first post!) I like sunsets, walks on the....oh sorry, wrong board.

Seriously, I have learned a lot from coming here and I hope I can give some of that back as a Contributing Editor. Anything else you want to know please ask. :)

Welcome to the team Jerry! :D

[Mike Temporale]

[Kris Kumar]

Readers! Please fasten your seat belts. Our pilot is ready for take-off.

:lol:

Welcome to the team, Jerry!

[aristoBrat]

Speaking of which, ... what kind of equipment do you pilot? <if that's not too nosey> :)

[Jerry Raia]

Thanks all for the welcome. :) I fly an EMB 145, a tiny picture of which you can see in my signature.

[Jerry Raia]

Welcome Jerry!

Thanks, happy to be here amongst the best and the brightest!


Good Luck! And Congrats! Wink Hope to see lots of news from you! Keep me reading on the internet instead of working....PLEASE!

I envy you people who can get to the internet at work! I can't get a signal at 35,000 ft!! At least not yet 8)

[encece]

Keep your eyes on your flying and dont worry about getting on the internet!

:rotfl:
Thats what the autopilot is for!!

[encece]

I thought autopilot was for drinking, sleeping and joining the mile-high club! (just kidding!)

Thank you much :)

Welcome Jerry! As a fellow Angelino (Venice) I hope you can get some good inside information on the Smartphone/Service choices around h'rr.

[Jerry Raia]

It would be my pleasure ;)

I drive by you on the way to work.

[Bacco]

Jerry, it'll good to read your posts on a regular basis.

By the way, are you an Anne Rice fan? Is that where the name "Lasher" came from?

Finally, something to start you working...I can't post here via my smart phone. I'm using an SMT 5600 with AT&T as my carrier. Am I the only one to ask this question?

Again, congrats.

[Jerry Raia]

Thanks :)
You are right about where my original name came from. That series was about the only books from her I really liked.

When you say you can't post can you be more specific? If you are referring to the page format then that is correct, for now all but the front page is formatted for mobile devices. That will change when subscription service is offered.

You should be able to post even though you will have to swim around the page to do it.

[Bacco]

Cool, the Mayfair witches was a great series. I loved the 2nd and 3rd lestat series books. Then they got very strange. Although I read them all. Now she's moving into more of a combination between them both.

No, I have no problem swiming around, after I write my reply, if I attempt to submit it or preview it, I am taken back to the input screen to my reply.

Sort of weird.

[Jerry Raia]

Yeah that is strange. I don't know why you are having that happen. Post that issue in the general discussion area. More will see it there :)

[Bacco]

Will do, thanks.

Crashing the party late - I've been pretty busy the past few days and haven't had time to do a run through SPT...

But anyway, glad to see you've joined the SPT Team Jerry (or should I say, Lasher)! :P I'm looking forward to your contributions... :)

[Jerry Raia]

Well thank you :)
I'm still brand new so it isn't late at all!
