after you have read the Newbie Manual (Self-Help Center).  Also, agencies usually have less stringent screening requirements.

go pack through the posts on this board.  It's all there and doesn't need repeating.  You'll need to go back a few pages but it's all been said and isn't hard to find.

You are going to have to give up some personal info...whether to a verification site (P411, RS2K, etc.) or to the lady herself (if she's even willing to deal with you).

As has been said, read the newbie guide (self-help), read the old posts here, join a verification service and then have some fun.

I know I bring them up all the time I sound like a spokesman for them but they made it so easy for me. I sent them the info, money, and directions on how they could contact me at work. After that its been open-season. I only meet providers through p411 so far.
