Welcome to Golden Eagles imstillstanding and isitok. :wave: :wave:I hope you enjoy it here.

BTW there are a few of us in our sixties, isitok. :)

Hi Saskia ... I'm dave
I am 69 years in September and have been here since December 2006




HI Saskia I am new in the sense that I haven't been active on the forum for a very long time. Maybe over two years? I have been going through a lot of personal drama and life growing trials. I do want to establish some sort of connection with CF again though. So if anyone remembers me please message me. Jan



Hi Jan Sis' :wave:


Good to have you back too :oldthumbsup:
It isn't so-easy for-me these-days either
I can find myself 'struggling somewhat to get-up
from being on my hands and knees

BUT, I can and do, overcome
:hug:

dave




For the answer to the 'question'
isitok said:
Also, can you delete one of your own posts? I have a couple I don't want on any more.


It is looking-like, your post was ADDED to the site BEFORE the software change
meaning that it is likely to be READ-ONLY (archived material)
It might also be near-impossible to redress the 'fault' that you have found with it

Left-alone, it will soon become buried under a ton or more of posts

Let Go and Let God

Well Hello all,
I'm not a newbie to Christian forums. But a newbie here in this thread. 52 and been single for the last almost 10 years. Thought it was about time I got out and started saying hello again. In Tennessee and if your here, say howdy.
What's funny is my online tag for gaming "yep, I game...found it a great place to witness to the young" my tag is B7Screamineagle. Now joining the Golden eagles....lol. Anyway. Hello again.
I am Born Again. I'm a literal believer of God's word. Yes, he did create it in 6 days. Yes, there are allegories and parables.
And yes, there are some areas in the Word, where literal shouldn't be applied.

As Dave says - we are! :D (Only joking!) I love the architecture too. :oldthumbsup:

I've visited the USA a couple of times, mainly the south-west, but also NY State and Washington DC. (We've relatives in America, as my great-aunt emigrated there more than a century ago. :)) I'm fascinated by the different States and would have liked to have had time to tour the south.

Hi Tom and all, I call OK home but live elsewhere. I grew up around the intersection of US81 and US62. I have been at CF since 2000. I'm a little past 3/4 century, retired x3, 2 grown sons, 45 and 55, 2 granddaughters 13 and 16.
I joined this forum while working for DOD in the far east very limited TV choices so this became my hobby.

Hello Der Alter,

Thanks for telling us some about you. My wife and I were both born and raised in Southwest Oklahoma, probably not far from where you grew up. We recently moved to Central Oklahoma.

Anyway, my name is Kevin and I'm happy to have found this section.
