On another note (no pun intended), this website finally allowed me to become a paid member last night, BUT I'm still unable to start private conversations. Every time that I try to, I get a message which tells me that I need to become a paid member...and I already did.

What's up with that?
It has to be "turned on" manually.

And, the way you handle that is to get the attention of the site owner in a friendly kind of way:

"Hey @Oncefallen and @RoboOp - could you please check into this? Thank you!"

RoboOp is the owner (and admin).
Oncefallen is the 'regular' admin.

Both are nice guys. I try not to "bother" them too much - but, they definitely are the "go to" guys for most concerns on the site - especially for things of this nature (your situation).

Before seeing your response, I did send a message via the "Contact Us" at the bottom of the page. Will that be enough? If not, then where (what thread?) should I try to reach either of the two people that you mentioned?

I just did - by putting the '@' at the front of their user name.

I was going to suggest the 'Contact Us' thing at first - oh, well - perhaps I should have left it well-enough alone... (sigh)

At this point, I would suggest that you might just be patient for now and give them the rest of the day to get it squared away.

Thanks, again.

I appreciate the help.

Giving my son a ride somewhere now, but then I truly need a nap.

If you or others wouldn't mind praying that I get some much needed sleep, then I'd appreciate that as well.

Just don't take a nap while in the car driving... ;)

Believe me, I almost did.

Home now.

Just got a notification that I've been activated to send private messages, so thanks for your help with that.

Jumping in the shower now, and then hopefully a nice nap. In all honesty, I'm so tired right now that I'm almost delirious.

Good morning everyone!

John, while I'm thinking of it, I wanted to tell you that I really like your signature line after your posts.

It makes me grin every time! :cool:

Hope everyone has a fantastic day!
I'm glad you like it.

And I know that I can come off like a duface sometimes...and I don't take myself so seriously. But make no mistake. My faith means everything to me. I don't get too involved with theological arguments anymore because I find them a metaphoric equivalent about "What the color Purple tastes like versus the color gold".... IOW two sides of an argument vigorously debated while both sides miss the point of scriptures to start with.

So why bother with such things. No wonder Jesus answered similar question with "Neither" more often than not. And today those same questions are being debated with the same vehemence.

If they ignored Jesus then why are they going to listen to me? They didn't like what He said (which is clear if you really want to know) and so they will likely like what I say even less.

But...
In the meantime...have another donut and coffee or tea.

Yes - that is a funny signature line.

:LOL: just have to say that this made me lol.
silly and sad reality, but so true.

You know what guys?
Anyone familiar with Dr. Seuss books (OTHER than Cat in the Hat; Green Eggs and Ham; or the lesser known titles that were recently all abuzz)??
He wrote one titled
THE SNEETCHES....
Well really all this drama the past year and half (and really the past 6-8 months) REALLY reminds me of that story.

Okay! STORRRRRRRRYYYYYYY TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMMMMME!!!!!!!! ( give it about 6 1/2 minutes....this ones read to you, )

I'm so sorry...
Didn't anyone tell you that Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, and Red Fish Blue Fish, have been determined to be part of the imperialist White Regime and therefore racist. (How exactly it is I'm not really sure) but it's gone that way with the cartoon character Pepe Le Pew... apparently his mysogny is legendary and a license to rape. (Nevermind that the black kitty is usually chasing him at the end of each skit and Pepe is trying to get away)

But yeah....we can't use these anymore.

The first one I cannot comment on, but the last two are easily identified as being racist to an
excoriating degree because specific colors are mentioned

Just awoke from about a 3 1/2 hour nap (if I'm calculating correctly).

Thank you, Jesus.

Can anyone recommend any good christian country music.. I've listened to some on youtube and what I've come across so far isn't very good. To give you an idea I like the sort of Brad Paisley style.. Do you know any christian artists similar?
