The forum is a place for my friends to have a conversation ... it is a private conversation between friends. It isn't intended for everyone to be able to see. It is similar to people sitting down at dinner and discussing the things on their minds. It is not meant to be shared with other people ... it is for us. And it is especially nice with some of my friends off to college ... it is a way to keep in touch.

If you are not a registered user please do not attempt to get into this forum and don't log in as someone you are not.

At various times I shut off new registration because scammers and crawlers attempt to register. If you are a friend and would like to join, e-mail me and I will turn on the registration so you can join.

A note to people who would like to join:

There are three* requirements for joining:

1. The first is that you must supply your real name when you register. These are not required fields, but they are required if you want me to approve your membership.

2. I must know you or someone in the forum must know you and vouch for you. This isn't a forum for strangers, it is a forum for friends. There are lots of other forums out there for strangers.

3. You must be a responsible person. I need to be reasonably sure you will not post inappropriate things.

*I reserve the right to reject anyone for membership into my forum for any or no reason, with or without explanation, with or without notification. I also reserve the right to cancel membership at any time for any or no reason.
