• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I once was in the same place as previous NY Met pitcher, Keith Hernandez.
I did not ask him for his autograph though I was sitting right next to him
I actually left him alone and in peace.

That was very considerate of you - I'm betting he would have been happy to share an autograph though.

Earlier this year my son gifted me with tickets to a Red Wings hockey game - not sure how he scored the tickets, but he did really well. We (my husband and I) actually had better seats than Gary Bettman (the NHL commisioner) - he was sitting near us (but our seats were better - I love saying that) we left him alone though (more to do with the fact that we don't love him than to do with us being considerate).

1. In a dense fog covering 7 city blocks to a depth of 100 feet, there is less moisture than in a glass of water.

That's astounding - I would have thought that there was way more preciptiation in fog than that?

I have a horrible headache today

ditto cuz I'm quittin' coffee.

edited to add the 3 more (I'm a nightmare at these games):

1. Ghandi was considering Christianity because he saw in it a real solution to India's social caste system, but when he entered a Christian church he was told to leave and worship with his own people. He then decided, since Christianity has it's own caste system he may as well stay where he was. (heard that as part of a radio service the other day.......trying to give us all a reminder).

2. Richard Nixon was a big baseball fan.

3. syzygy is an awesome hangman word.
