    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Fun Day

We have this some what mentally ill prisoner that we put in a pod by himself. He decided to bust sprinkler head in day room. One...Hell...Of... A...Mess...

Alarm went off and I was in basement. Started opening rooms looking for fire. IT guy says look here and on his computer he had video cameras up. Water every where.

Run into mechanical room, turn off upper and lower sprinkler valves. Grab keys and run to Post outside to shut that off.

Deal with firemen then call my Fire Suppression company. I stock several different heads but the correctional ones take special adapter to remove plus you need to be certified (To take off valve and replace with new one wrapped in plumbing tape)

Guy comes out and promptly breaks new head. Will take a week to get new ones in. 1 he broke and a spare. They put in a regular type until new ones come in.

I tell jail administrator not to use D pod because unlike the other ones this one will break in less than 5 seconds. Says I have to use it. I said OK, Do not call me at home if it happens and call fire dept to handle.

5 months from Open Heart Surgery and I was running up and down steps numerous times, Hauling huge floor fans to dry out jail, various water areas downstairs but luckily most in garage. Early night tonight.
 
Seems like your heart handled it well. :hurray:

But don't push it, please. You don't have any spares.
 
Not too bad but wife said I was snoring up a storm last night. My head not pillow and next thing I remember was alarm going off and I had to pee so bad I didn't think I'd make it to bathroom, lol
