YEP, we sort of act like a team anyway. Thanks for starting this so our Sunday in Lent friends could find us. Have a blessed day. I am off to a day long track meet.

Question Re: CA Clubs: Crumudgeon and CIJS-Closed!

I don't know. Maybe the mods could clarify why they closed them both by giving more than just the standard locking line. Mods...if you are out there, why did you close the threads? I thought the "water cooler" allowed fun and silly threads, or subjects that did not fit on any other part of the forum as long as they did not violate the rules.

Just my guess- they were getting too long. I am only speaking for myself here.

I am repeating this for all the people that only post on Sundays in Lent. We have slipped one percentage point overnight, so vote if you haven't. Thanks.
Here is my plea:
I am posting this site for all to go and vote. It is an MSNBC poll on Terri and we need to make our presence known.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3080261/

Currently the poll says that 42% are in favor of putting Terri's tube back in . Let's make that number higher. I want the MSM to realize that people in favor of life do exist. Let's shock the people at MSNBC. Perhaps it will change how they cover Terri's case and those in the future.

Hi People! Well, I guess we are now forced to tolerate the Mudgies in one thread. It was probably for the best. I have wondered from time to time, if all the intense graphic's we use, were part of the Forums slow loading and bandwidth problems. It was probably a good reason to kill the threads.

Anyway, Have a blessed Palm Sunday. Off to seek Our Lord once more. Catch you all later.

I think we should ask Therese Martin the reason for the closures, without sounding like we are challenging her authority (because we are not). If we are going to start a new thread, then we will need to avoid repeating something which she thought was a problem.

It could very well be that the threads were too long.

It could very well be that the threads were too overloaded with jpgs and gifs.

But we need to know. Leaders?

Exclamation Re: CA Clubs: Crumudgeon and CIJS-Closed!

Both threads were closed because they were each over a thousand posts. (One of them was over two thousand posts. ) For the future, please send inquiries about mod actions by private message to the moderator that took the action. Thanks!

Howdy and Happy Palm Sunday to all. Now I guess we need to come up with a new name: Maybe a poll? Whose good at polls? Curjunkie, Crazy Mugdies, Mudgunkies, what are your thoughts?

The day has come - or do we remain separate? It is kind of fun having the loving family tension - I do so love my Mudginess and like to keep my joy and happy smile surpressed.

What to do?

What's going on!? I haven't voted, but I can't vote on either of my computers. It shows that I already voted, but I know I didn't. GRRRRR
