Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
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....

And of course Daddy's girl.
she just loves her brother and takes good care of him.
They are also inseparable.
I don't feed them. so they have to go digging into the pantry tby themselves.
Watching TV upside down is our favorite past time.
Not only do I not feed them. But I make them sleep in boxes.
They also teach my wife how to read.

Great pics, Ritchie!! You certainly have a beautiful family.
I used to shake my head when people said what Terese just said about it going too fast....but it is slowly dawning on me that it is too true...

Too fast is an understatement.
Where did 2005 go?
I got out of the army yesterday.
Then I looked at the calendar.
It was actually 10 months ago..................sheesh
I try to hold them as much as I could. It is not enough. It is never enough.

That's a great looking family Ritchie. I can see why you are proud. I have three girls, 14, 13 and 11. I personally can't wait for time to fly by. Just kidding.

LMAO, I have a 15 year old girl, and she DOES spend more time grounded than not, I think!
One girl is MORE than enough for me, I think I'd lose my sanity with three.....or what I have left of my sanity, anyway.
My boy has been less trouble than her since he was, oh....2 months old, heh. But deep down, they are BOTH good kids....teenage girls are NUTS, however.
