How many do you have to click on? It said it sent 3 posts after I clicked on all thirty.

I'm lost as to how many post numbers you are supposed to click on to transfer to the form?

Off-Topic / What Are Your Favorite Holiday Foods and Snacks?

« on: November 28, 2018, 11:18:54 am »Message ID: 1249083

For me it's Turkey, Stuffing, Green Bean Casserole, etc. for the main course.

For snacks, I like Bread Pudding, White Chocolate (Almond) Brittle, Pumpkin Pie, and Christmas Cookies.

I never grew out of my love for Shamrock Shakes from McDonald's around St. Patricks Day either.

It's 13 degrees here in Minnesota, definitely feeling like Winter here...

No snow is on the ground, but it's cold enough to snow at any time now.

Off-Topic / Have Any Of You Been Owners of Hyper-Active Cats?

« on: November 27, 2018, 10:31:44 am »Message ID: 1248898

I'm curious as to what kind of things you do to discourage them/keep them away from clawing/chewing furniture and drapes/shades/drawstrings, etc.

I've tried Tobasco Sauce, double sided tape, Vinegar, Scratch Deterrent Sprays, Calming Sprays, etc.

I think I have everything covered when it comes to problem areas like leaving all the shades up on windows and hanging the draw strings up high where "Bella" (Cat) can't reach them and she finds something else to attack/destroy. If not trying to claw the couch and recliner, she gets up on the TV stand and starts trying to chew the sides of the flat screen TV.

She went straight up the curtain on the window in my room which is full of holes that the sun shines through now.

They discourage having Cats declawed these days, so options are limited there.

I adopted "Bella" from Petsmart in September as a six month old Kitten, but wasn't prepared for this...

Any advice on discouraging bad behavior is welcome.

Off-Topic / What Are Your Favorite On-Line Games?

« on: November 27, 2018, 10:05:17 am »Message ID: 1248896

I was originally addicted to puzzle games like Diamond Mine, Bejeweled, the Candy Crush games, Tetris, etc.


For the past few years, I've been completely addicted to a game that comes with Windows 10 called, "Hearts On-line" where you compete with others all over the world.

My addiction to the card game, "Hearts" started years ago when buddies at work stayed after hours and we'd link together in games of, Windows "Hearts". We even made it a little tournament for cash. I've been addicted to the game ever since.

"Hearts On-line" is way better than the original, because it allows you to interact with the other three players on-screen.

Suggestions / Dark Backgrounds on Survey Pages, Please...

I keep getting bright white pages with bright white backgrounds where I can't see where to click my answers to the questions. Dark backgrounds or color coded circles for clicking in on white backgrounds would solve this issue.

Thank you... = )

Off-Topic / What Are Your Favorite TV Shows?

« on: November 26, 2018, 04:24:25 am »Message ID: 1248660

I'm addicted to "Blue Bloods' on CBS, WGN, and ION.

It's about a Catholic Family that serves on Law Enforcement.

Tom Selleck plays New York City Police Commissioner, Frank Reagan. His oldest son, Danny is a Police Detective, his youngest son, Jamie is a Police Officer and his daughter, Erin is the District Attorney while his father, Henry was the former Police Commissioner before him.

Great storylines and acting all around on this show.

Tom Selleck played a Cop on another show called "Jesse Stone" that airs on the Hallmark Channel ever so often. That show is great, too. = )

Watching "Christmas Vacation" with Chevy Chase as Clark Griswold has become an annual tradition as well as the "Countdown to Christmas" movie marathon on the Hallmark Channel.

Debate & Discuss / Identity Politics

« on: November 26, 2018, 03:22:14 am »Message ID: 1248655

It doesn't seem like anybody examines the political affiliation of those using race, gender, and class warfare to divide us.

Who is kneeling to the anthem, burning the flag, rioting/violently protesting, attacking police officers/miitary veterans/senior citizens/political opponents, etc.

None of them are Conservative/Republican minorities or Conservative/Republican Women.

A majority of Conservatives/Republicans are Middle Class citizens who want personal and financial responsibility. The Middle Class wants lower taxes and we don't need Democrat celebrities all over the entertainment business and mainstream liberal media to lecture us about politics.   

Being against illegal immigration isn't being against legal immigration.

The twisting of facts by the mainstream liberal media and liberally dominated unions/community organizations/social media giants/globalist corporations, teacher unions and school curriculum in our public schools and universities is stirring up a hornet's nest full of division in the United States and abroad.

You read the newspapers, magazines, watch the local and national news, late night comedy, award shows, listen to Public School Teachers and College Professors etc. and it's all ripping the right while endorsing the left 24/7, 365 days a year. It's nauseating for anyone who thinks differently than they do. They shove their ideology in your face on your TV, in your movies, at concerts, at sporting events, etc.

People who try to talk about this stuff rationally wind-up being censored, because they refuse to tolerate the opinions of anyone who doesn't cater to the liberal agenda with the Open Borders Globalism and anti-Capitalist rheatoric.

America and Israel are both under assault by people who believe in this Socialist thinking.

Remember Stalin (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) and Hitler (National Socialist German Workers Party)

Communism and Fascism are forms of Socialism and both are anti-Capitalist which is why comparing them to a Free Market Capitalist like Trump is ridiculous.

Off-Topic / NFL

Is anybody else here a Football fan?

I'm a fan of the Minnesota Vikings, but our season hasn't gone as planned after adding Kirk Cousins and Sheldon Richardson to a team that made the NFC Championship Game last year. We were hoping that we had the final pieces to a team that hasn't been to the Super Bowl since the 70s and has never won one.

Instead the Rams signed Talib, Peters, Suh, and Cook among others to steal our thunder.

Then the Bears traded for Mack and signed WRs that made them an instant contender.

So instead of having the Packers as the only obstacle in our way in the division, the Bears rised from the ashes.

The Playoffs are looking like a long shot with the Patriots, Seahawks, Dolphins, Lions, and Bears on the schedule the rest of the way.

Here's hoping for some help from other teams in beating the other top Playoff contenders.

What's your team and how are they doing this year? = )

Off-Topic / Has Anybody Else Here Been a Victim of Identity Theft?

« on: November 25, 2018, 05:51:14 am »Message ID: 1248534

I was in 2015, just left the Inbox Dollars site, because the questions from surveys they required you to fill-out got way too personal and intrusive.

With issues like Identity Theft and Fraud out there, you really have to be careful about what you share on-line.

I joined Fusion Cash because it comes with an endorsement from the Better Business Bureau. It's probably the most trusted site you can join for this kind of thing.

Other-wise you wind-up with relentless e-mail spam, bomboarded with telemarketing calls, over-bearing advertising at your snail mail address, etc. Your personal information can be abused by third parties the surveys share with, etc.

You have to set boundaries with how much you're willing to share and if a certain survey asks for too much information, skip it. Better safe than sorry.
