Hello MichaelCaricofe, welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips:

• Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.
• Create a User page.
• Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
• Read the Policies and guidelines.
• Add yourself to the New user log.
• Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
• Be bold!
• Use the Show preview button
• Provide an Edit summary.

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphax ^τεχ 10:56, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because your name is listed as a participant in WikiProject Musicals (previously WikiProject Broadway) or I feel you may be interested in the project. It seems that the project has laid dormant for quite awhile, but I would like to work toward getting it up and operative. I have a few ideas that I've outlined on the talk page, and would love your input. Working together, I think we can signifigantly improve the quality of the articles relating to musicals on Wikipedia. —  MusicMaker 06:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

and Hello! right back

Hi Michael. Thanks for stopping by. I don't really know what I can say. I'm far from an authority on the subject. But, I think what you wrote is one of the saddest realities I can think of. I am grateful to have found a place to attend here that has a different more open relationship with God where I've been able to make a lot of friends and participate in many volunteer endeavors. I am able to be honest with everyone about how I feel at any given moment about God and life. And what I get back is that no one has it all figured out. And the moment someone thinks they do is when they are furthest from the truth. You're not supposed to hold on too tightly. Then one gets the impression that they can control God- or worst, speak for Him. The gall! Don't let anyone take away your right to check in with your maker. You're not wrong. But with that said, I think that there are a lot of Godly people, with wisdom and peace and love, who are not found in church congregations. Those places tend to alienate as many as they welcome. I think there is nothing sexier than a church with ALL kinds of people. Here in Canada, I think it's easier to find that kind of place. I'm from Louisiana, and that's a whole different story. But the good news is that times are changing. And quicker than I thought they would just a few years ago. I used to anticipate that tolorance would increase, but now I see complete acceptance play out in fits and starts. I think it's best to live as if the world we want exists already. I wish you well, Michael! Affinity likely •Hello• 16:15, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
