No problem, Jocke. Just wasn't sure where all of that was going.

That's your problem, Allan. You always think something has to go somewhere. This was going nowhere in a hurry. Which is exactly where a good hijack is supposed to go.

Pah! You just can't get over the fact that I am a twig from YOUR family tree. There is a little redneck in all families.

I say hang them out with names and all and let them burn.

Jen, that's really a lousy thing for one of our members to do. It makes me angry. Many of us communicate and share things about our lives outside this forum. I for one tend to trust TRF members and regard them, including you, as good people. But as you know, there are always creeps. I hope they are found out, and kicked out. Period.

Yes, I agree with you that a female mod would be a good idea. I hope our admin considers this in the future.

Hang in there!
