• 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.

have you ever been invited to a banquet?

Many times. That tends to happen when you are athletic teams. A banquet every year.

The one that was for a team I was not on was the University of Southern California swim team. One of the swimmers at the table I was at was Bengt Gingsjo a Swedish Olympian.

So now you know something Wiki does not. Bengt swam for USC.

So the obvious question. Have you ever met an Olympic athlete?

No. But a few movie stars.

HYE met any movie stars?

Is Dennis Weaver big enough to count? His son was my brothers best friend for a couple of years in Jr. High.

HYE walked on a lava flow. (bonus points if it was still hot).

Have you ever held a snake? (my son has *shudder*) :D

But of course. King, Garter, California Racer and Rattle.

Have you ever seen snow in July? (A king snake I saw on a July 4th hike where there was still snow on the ground gave me the question).

No, not in July.

Nope. Almost worked a one day fund raiser for Hora Hora Rugby Club in Whangarei but it was rained out.

HYE picked up a hitchhiker?

Yes, once only when my husband was in the car with me and the hitchhiker was just a teenager trying to get home from his friend's place. He had no backpack or anything like that.

Have you ever hitchhiked yourself?

Have you ever hitchhiked yourself?

Yes, once. My plane landed all of 5 minutes before the busses stopped running so I hitchhiked across Oahu. Better than spending 5 times as much on a taxi as for the flight.

HYE been to Hawaii?
