Well, I agree with you on that point...I was a member for quite a while before I started posting...
In fact, if all off topic posting were banned (ie: anything not pertaining seriously and directly to the chosen topics...no general discussion section) I'd probably get a helluva lot more work done...but that's what I have so much fun with on this forum...I love the sneaks and stuff, but I also enjoy being able to have FUN outside the box!!!

Well, I could never complain about anyone going off-topic. That would leave my glass-house far from weatherproof.

I'd rather there wasn't something there pointing out the difference.
And don't think Teague won't notice you've replied twice to each of my posts..

My momma always told me not to talk to lurkers. Or was it strangers? Hmmm, I forget.
