    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....

I appreciate intelligent humor. I couldn't care less if it's aimed at me. I have to admit, that last one was witty Jim. The reason why Springer is so poular though (like, Baywatch popular) is because so many people can relate to it in some way or another.

Thanks you Ryan. Yes, that was intended as humor, not as a poke.

Actually, in a former life I practiced clinical medicine and I had a 1.2 trio of patients who actually were on Springer. Without disclosing anything identifiable, it was a married couple with some kids in which the wife decided she was a lesbian and so they took in a bisexual girl as a third, for both of them. Well...the girl got pregnant and there was quite the battle. And it played out on Springer complete with a cat fight. It was rather hilarious, even more so considering I knew the parties involved.
 
Exactly Maggie. But my coffee pot only makes noise when it's brewing the one cup at a time (it's a Capresso automatic coffee/espresso pressure brewer -- makes a great crema layer). Dr.Phil's show is background noise while I am reading and drinking said coffee. :p

How does one read coffee?

I have a coffee mug that someone gave me many years ago that I might send to you that says "Nobody likes a smart ass". :p

It's like the telegram: "Your Aunt Mary died and left you a million thanks for everything"

Was it "Your Aunt Mary died and left you a million [stop] thanks for everything" and you are suddenly wealthy?

or was it "Your Aunt Mary died and left you [stop] a million thanks for everything" and all you have is the gratitude of the sender?
