  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Have you ever?

I broke my arm using my 4-wheeled roller skate as a skateboard. I was 13 years old. Had my sock-ed foot on top of the roller skated foot, going down the street, and then BLAMO. I hit a loose pebble and did a facer into the pavement, saving my nose with my arm.

I told my friends that my parents were going to kill me and then I went inside. I told my mom what happened and that my arm hurt and she basically gave me the mom equivalent of "walk it off".

6:30 at night, on a gorgeous night, and I'm bed reading and crying, so she finally realizes I might actually be hurt. The arm itself on the surface didn't look broken, it was barely scraped and there was no bruise, but the weird way I was acting was enough for her. Have you felt that weird feeling when you break a bone? Like you get shivers when you try to move it? That kept me pretty immobilized. Yuck.

So, we went to the ER and I was half-casted immediately and full casted something like 3 days later, all the way up to the elbow.

This was also before colored casts, so I feel I was deprived of a pink cast.

Yes, the first time I tried kale I regretted it lol

Have you ever walked into a room and felt like everyone was staring at you?

Sure, but it's been long enough that I can't remember a specific.

Have you ever just checked your email and realized something you can't speak of publicly?
