    **************************************************
    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Happy Birthday Rich (Webslave)

Shhh! Don't tell anyone! I'm getting too old to be having birthdays. I just cannot believe that in just two years I will be 70 years old.... :face_palm_02:

But thank you anyway. :)
 
Happy Birthday Rich. I hope you are proud of your huge contribution to the hobby.
 
Thanks again, everyone.

Darn that was a BIG piece of birthday cake Connie gave me to eat today. And right after a BIG seafood dinner, too. I feel like I need to just curl up underneath a sheet of plywood or something and wait for it to get digested. Glad I didn't take her up on her putting a big scoop of ice cream on that cake too.

I'm going to hate seeing the number on the bathroom scale tomorrow morning. :ack2: I've been trying to lose weight but the darn thing keeps on finding me.
 
Congratulations and Happy Birthday! Don't worry about the numbers - my friend is 70 in a month and we're all heading out to a Bob Dylan concert - he's even older and still going strong!
