• 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.

Do you have a Costco near? They have easy to prepare food that only requires an oven or microwave. I think you’d like it.

I'm not sure actually.

I know there is a Target nearby.

Look and see. Its in bulk but you’d have healthier options in small portions. They have a great pho that’s really tasty!

Sounds good.. I do like buying their premade salads occasionally.

On my mind:
- Thinking about riding one of my favorite mtb trails
- Wondering if it's legal to fly a kite behind the art museum
- Developing a new interface
- Preparing for the hurricane

I’m not sure about the kite but the ride sounds nice. Please keep safe. You’ll be in my prayers.
Don't take this the wrong way. I welcome you here and I think you're a good addition to Singles. But your ambiguity is annoying. What's the point of posting about something if you're going to remain so vague about it that it leaves people wondering what the heck you're talking about. If you're not going to keep it 100% then my suggestion is to not even bring it up in the first place.

You may think how you go about things is discreet but they're really self serving. When people have to follow up to even make sense of your posts then you've got issues. Don't worry though. I'm thru dealing with you. You won't hear me anymore responding to your nonsense

May I urge everyone here to try to remember to begin praying more and more for the Lord to miraculously intervene and put an end to the mass shootings in this country that we seem to hear occurring nearly every day now. I'm not going to get all political about it, about the means by which I believe this can be achieved, just that God will help us all as a nation and end the violence. This cannot keep happening.

Don't forget that most of us are basically strangers on the internet. It can be helpful to take what's said here with a grain of salt. Especially, when there's heated discussion.

I’m not sure about the kite but the ride sounds nice. Please keep safe. You’ll be in my prayers.
Thanks. It's possible that the worst of the storm will blow out to sea, as it moves north.

This is very important. Everyone please pray for one of my friends from church, a woman who took care of me in many ways when I was a college student twelve to thirteen years ago. Her name is Regina, and she has been battling health complications seemingly daily for the last several years due to cancer. It is very difficult to be in her position, to say the least, for this long.

This is what she had to say just now on Facebook :

Prayer Warriors, we need your prayers! I had to go to the hospital ER last night! My heart felt like it was bouncing around my chest. I am in the hospital on IV heart meds trying to convert my heart back in rhythm but hasn’t worked yet. Pretty sure this is chemo induced as it was the last two times. Unsure what tomorrow will hold if the meds don’t work

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, is extraordinarily good. If you liked the original, or are a fan of the fantasy genre in general, I can't recommend it highly enough. Rather than watching it all in one shot, I'm spreading it out over several days. At the moment, I'm up to episode 6.

God willing that is the case. I’ve never endured a natural disaster and hope I never will. Did you go for your ride?
I'm glad to hear that you've never had to endure one. To be fair, I haven't directly experienced a natural disaster either. Hurricanes have been more like big thunderstorms inland, where I live. The last time a hurricane came by, water got into in my finished basement. Not much, essentially a big puddle, but enough to be annoying. The cause was a clogged downspout + heavy rain. My preparation for this storm involved checking the downspout (all clear) and stocking up on food.

About the mountain biking... I rode a different trail than I originally had in mind. One that is less popular but more natural. Essentially, deer trails with underbrush cleared out of the way. Speaking of which, there were lots of deer. It's interesting to be out there all alone, and hear so many large creatures running through the woods around you
