Tell us something unexpected or surprising!

I am visiting GE via my iphone
I had a really difficult time locating GE because I have far fewer tabs and options visible on my screen
This is not, a connection method that I will use very often, I am sure
leastways, not, until I can acquire a better view
I must get myself a stylus

Have a good evening everyone

LOL
This did not get posted, until I returned home and opened my PC
Strangely, the post I entered was still there waiting for me to click on Post Reply


DONE now

Hi Dave I finding this site a nightmare, it is so strange, i can't see how to send a private message to anyone. I have not been able to be on here in a while it was so slow to the point of full stop maybe because of the change over to this new forum, it became impossible, now it seems to be OK but I can't get used to this new site. It is scary. I will keep trying.

Hi Debby

Do you join CF via: phone or, your PC ?

If it's a PC, I can help you with that
but, if it's your phone (?) this is New Technology for me [Christmas Present]
and, I am still feeling my way around my iphone
Have you tried visiting the PROFILE of the member you want to 'message'
and looking for Leave a Private Message ?

I have no-trouble visiting Facebook from my phone, because necessary tabs /buttons
are in plain view on my screen .... This will take much getting used-to

Keep Trying

your Bro'

Hello dave.
I tried that on your own profile page, but could not find "Leave a Private Message" anywhere. Whereabouts is this button on the profile page?

Grumman Tomcat said:

The US Navy's F-14 Tomcat was named after Vice Admiral Thomas Connelly--not the cat. He was the father of the F-14 program after he killed the F-111B program. She was originally called Tom's Cat, but they shortened her name to Tomcat. She's the last Grumman Cat to serve in a fighter role.

This reminds me of my RAAF days. There was a young man with the surname Tac.
I said to him, 'that is an unfamiliar name, there must be a story behind it.' He said, 'There is. It is my father's nickname. He was in the USAF and always volunteered for single sorties. All his friends called him TAC, because it means 'take a chance.'

Hi Ahermit

Welcome to GE50+

You click on my username ¬v under my avatar and select START A CONVERSATION....
This thread is THEN 'between us' (if I am not mistaken/ private chat)
I haven't tried this with my phone
~my fingers are a little 'thick' for accurate 'touching' of characters on my phone
I must get a stylus for it

PS.

See, my 'private-message' to you ? (now, called "CONVERSATIONS" between members)

and having to sign-in to post a reply.... I gave up waiting, for help to arrive
\o/ I have overcome \o/

Thank you Lord for the answer to

I am from a large family, I have 7 siblings

I saw a wild turkey in all it's bird feather glory trying to impress two turkey hens in the suberbs.

Thank you Dave, bless your heart for replying and helping me, I am getting the hang of it now. xxxx

Many years ago, while driving home from a palliative care seminar, I felt filled with love and gratitude for God. I drove like this as dusk was approaching. It was a bit breezy, and noticed a few clouds were forming, changing shape, and getting a bit of color. So I pulled off the road, grabbed my camera, and started taking shots of the shifting sunset. My last shot stopped me from taking anymore, because I was in too much awe from what I was seeing. A face looking down on earth.


The face did not last long. However, no need to say how much more in love and gratitude for God I was after that.

This is the signature of a Lightning ground-strike

Watch-out! if one lands near you, especially after rain

I may have told this before.. anyway I bad a pot of rice in the fridge with lid on. Took lid off and a frog jumped out! Guess the cold didn't bother him much

I should find another supplier for your 'cuisses de grenouille'
One, that doesn't supply 'Live Frogs'

I guess this would fall under unexpected. I have 2 dogs. A couple of weeks ago during the night one took my jeans off the chair, brought them to the middle of the room and peed on them. I know it was her because the other one would have chewed them up. Since then I've been putting clothes on back of chair. OK so yesterday I was in my room and had forgotten to put a piece of clothes up and right in front of my eyes the male dog silently and slowly pulled the clothing off the chair! When i yelled at him to drop it he ttried to run under the bed with it.....must b some kind of dog conspiracy
