G'day all!

I'm a 27-year-old chick in the medical profession from Melbourne, and I'm thrilled to join the AFA community.

I've been an atheist for as long as I can remember, even before I knew such a word existed! I am extremely thankful I was brought up irreligious and able to make up my own mind about which direction to take.

I'm also a huge Dawkins fan, and greatly looking forward to the convention next year - got full weekend tickets, so I hope to see all of you there!

Duckie.

Welcome Duckie! Glad to note you are irreligious as opposed to a-religious. So much more fun! :D

Welcome Duckie - I'm also a "chick in the medical profession" (not a doctor or a nurse though - I'm a multidisciplinary transcriptionist with my own business) and am in Melbourne. Er ... but I'm not 27 any more :confused:

Look forward to seeing you around the forums and of course, at the convention in March!

Cheers.

Thanks, Ford! Yeah, I thought irreligious might be more approprate. :)

Thanks, Praxis! I'm a medical imaging practitioner (aka radiographer). :D

Thanks, Protium! :)

We're completely filmless now (most hospitals are), but we can still take x-rays of ourselves; we just now take them home on CD! :D

LOL :D

Perhaps there's some sort of positive correlation between radiographers and atheism? I know of at least one colleague who is ... :)

Hey, gudday :)

My father was a radiographer .. well until they decided to start using 3 word explanations for the job, and he became a medical imaging technologist ;)

hope you have fun on the forum!

Thanks, Davo! :)

I admit that three-word job descriptions tend to sound a bit more 'important' ... but when I'm feeling lazy, it's radiographer all the way! :D

Hi Duckie, and welcome to the AFA forums.

Have to say, reading thru this thread has reminded me of one of Jerry Seinfeld's jokes..
