Yay! Aww, she'll be so happy when she sees it :clap:

You're all such lovely, lovely women :hug::hug:
:blush: You are too my friend. :hug:

[3girls2dogs]

Oh wow!!!! I think I'm going to cry tears of absolute joy. Seeing you all be so kind and so caring has really made my week. Heck, it has made my last 7 months.

Seriously, I am so very, very grateful. I feel so blessed to be a part of this forum. :hug: :hug: :hug:

Have y'all noticed how quiet CF, 4U, whatever, is these days? It sort of feels like a town in the wild west that's slightly deserted :(

Yes...:( I keep realizing that more and more people are not posting any more. I think they've left...for good. :(

And yeah...what are we supposed to call this place? :scratch:

[FriendsFellowship]

Yes...:( I keep realizing that more and more people are not posting any more. I think they've left...for good. :(

You mean instead of CF?

[Greenthumb]

You mean instead of CF?
I still call it CF, but it's not anymore is it. I mean, not just because of the name change.

[GreenMunchkin]

I have noticed that :(

Yes...:( I keep realizing that more and more people are not posting any more. I think they've left...for good. :(Sad, isn't it? :( I wonder if people would come back if they knew about CC? Mind you, it's not the most welcoming place at the moment. Too many rulesy things. Will be better when we can shunt them all into their own forum :(

And yeah...what are we supposed to call this place? :scratch:

You mean instead of CF?Yeah, cos it *isn't* CF, anymore. But 4U is just ridiculous.

[FriendsFellowship]

I still call it CF, but it's not anymore is it. I mean, not just because of the name change.

Don't hit me, I'm just the messenger, but quite a lot of people have been calling it FU.

:sigh:

:sigh:Tis true. Started as a joke, but it caught on.

By the way, have you seen how much of a furore outside of CF, 4U, whatever all this has caused? There are blogs out there that are discussing little else.

We're right to be staying, yes? :help:

To be honest Munchie I wish I was sure. :|

[FriendsFellowship]

Everything I said in my blog still stands.

[GreenMunchkin]

To be honest Munchie I wish I was sure. :|So, I have a question. When you read stuff like NG's thread, do you feel a little convicted? Been thinking on it for a spell, see.

In what way sweetie?

[Hentenza]

:sigh:

Hey FF,

I wonder why the filters don't catch FU by what it really means.^_^^_^:P:P

[GreenMunchkin]

In what way sweetie?Well, he wants no part of something that would compromise the Lord so much. And it's absolutely true that that's what's happening here.

So many of us want to stay because if every conservative Christian left... :help: But maybe staying *isn't* right. Does it mean we're supporting His being compromised?

[Lisa0315]

Hold on you guys. There is a right way and a wrong way to teach and preach. This is not about NG having stated his opinions but where and how he did it. I have argued homosexuality and abortion until I was blue in the face, but I was never reported a single time.

The Conservative belief CAN be taught and preached. However, it does need to be done in the right way. If one feels strongly that it must be spoken in a way that is against forum rules, then, it should be done "street preaching" or some place other than here.

Members know the rules when they sign up and rules on HOW and WHERE we can speak have not changed.

Ah...I see what you mean. Well, I dunno. It's a tough call. When the changes first came in and then the name change I likened it to our presence here in the world. This world of ours is getting increasingly more and more God-less. And yet, we don't leave this world. At least not until the Lord tells us it's our time. No, we live in this world and we be a light for Christ and everything that is right. We stand. And that's what I kinda think we need to do here. Of course I do understand about not staying in a God-less place, but it's not quite that yet, is it? Hmm...see, told you it was a tough call. :sigh:

Um, sometimes I find myself wondering whether I stay because I want to be a light, or whether it's because am addicted to the site. Not really said that aloud before. Do you ever get that?

Munchie, if you really look at it, I'm not so sure CF was a shining example before the changes.

The changes just made it more obvious.

Sorry. I thought it did. I thought y'all were talking about NG and his reasons for leaving.

Munchie, if you really look at it, I'm not so sure CF was a shining example before the changes.

The changes just made it more obvious.Really? In what way/s?

Cos, FF, we're members of the other forums... but is this the one you spend most time at? I *prefer* the others, but still come here the most.

[Greenthumb]

Very, very tough call. Um, sometimes I find myself wondering whether I stay because I want to be a light, or whether it's because am addicted to the site. Not really said that aloud before. Do you ever get that?
Yes, I do. :o I admit...I love the bells and whistles. And also, I have a lot of really good friends here (who haven't left and I don't think will consider leaving) and I wouldn't be able to visit with them anywhere else. Maybe that's just an excuse though and not really a reason. Hmm...

[FriendsFellowship]

Cos, FF, we're members of the other forums... but is this the one you spend most time at? I *prefer* the others, but still come here the most.

The debates (arguing), the flaming, the trolling, were all here before.

That hasn't changed.

It was just in a different place before, especially the DR forum. It got so bad there they closed it down!

I am here (at FU) the most, almost exclusively.

The other sites are really like ghost towns compared to this. (Even though it's been quiet here lately).

One other site that I feels most comfortable with has had 20 posts today, all day!

[Greenthumb]

We are in a way...but more broader Lisa, as in site wide, not what happened here in this forum.

[LivingLifeHisWay]

There are many people on this site that compromise the Lord. There are others that don't and stand on His Word - those people are *here*.

When I am *here* I feel the Lord's prescence, I see His light. When I'm in other forums I don't. It's quite dramatic actually.

We have the opportunity to do something amazing here. We can reach out. We can continue to stand for Truth. We can begin healing. We can pour the Lord's love into this place and let Him shine.

I took a long break from CF before joining CCC. I left for so many reasons but one of them was I was spending too much time here. It was taking up time I could be spending with the Lord. I have learned to balance my time here and after much prayer know that if I use self-control with my time God can use me.

God called me away but I bieleve with my whole heart that He has called me back as long as I can use self-control with my time. He has placed specific people on my heart from here, He has given me scriptures to share at the right moment, He is continually leading me here. As long as CCC stands, so will I. :hug:

[GreenMunchkin]

Wow. Honestly, I love y'all. Just the most wonderful people :hug::hug::hug::hug::hug:

Well said! :thumbsup:

I guess if I were to be honest, I'm not here to disciple or lead others to the Lord. That's not saying I WONT do those things if I'm given the opportunity. It's just not the bottom line of why I stay. I think we add to each others lives as friends...and the Christian fellowship here is something I lack in real life. I'm from a small city and though I've been active in my church, I don't fellowship there very much. Only on Sundays. There's more than one reason for that and it's something I'm working through as I go. But that just tells you why I'm here.

I also get a sense of community here which is so important. :hug:

You know, in some ways I have better relationships with those of you my online friends than I do with my rl friends. I see most of you every day, but I only see my rl friends once in a while because we live so far apart. My best friend in all the world lives an hours drive away. So, yes...the fellowship and sense of community here is very important to me.

I was out doing lovely things! :clap:
I went to the Farmer's Market again and got some more beautiful flowers. :) And then I ran around from store to store to get those unavoidable necessities...like kleenex and soap. Not as lovely, but now I'm home and I can play. :D

[GreenMunchkin]

You eat minstrels! :eek:

*hides lute*I still can't believe you have a dolly! Tis, like, unheard of. Well, see, here Minstrels are these a.ma.zing drops of chocolate ecstasy. Crunchy shell, creamy chocolate truffliness heaven on the inside... nnngh.

With your minstrels, they wander, you have to get up n follow 'em. With my Minstrels, you sit, open packet, eat. Aaaaaand repeat.

Mmm...those minstrels sound delicious. :yum: Almost as good as fudge...which I didn't get today cause the fudge lady wasn't there. :( :sigh:

We do have the Body Shop here, but I hardly ever go there because it's in the mall and I avoid the mall. :sorry: But I do love their soaps and I always put that on my Christmas wish list. My brother dutifully buys me some all the while complaining..."I don't see why anyone needs this kind of stuff". ^_^ Do you shop there often?

Minstrels are the best! Chocolate that doesn't melt and get messy - what could be better!
I have three daughters - the body shop is compulsory every time we go into town:D

Only thing that would make it better was if it also started selling stationery. Wow. Best. shop. ever!

Only thing that would make it better was if it also started selling stationery. Wow. Best. shop. ever!I love vanilla, but my favourite are the citrusy ones. So fresh and clean. They used to have grapefruit, but it's been so long since I've been there, that I'm not sure if they still do?

[GreenMunchkin]

I think she does. It's all packaged up so neatly with labels and everything. It even has ingredients on the back and the date it was made. :)Oh wow! Is she all lovely and homely? Hmm, I hope she's alright... is the market open tomorrow, also?

Ooh, if they have it, still, I'll send you some! :clap: That way you don't have to go to the mall :hug: Huh, actually, the only stuff of theirs I never liked is all the "white musk" stuff :sick: So sickly n abrasive.

[chaoschristian]

I still can't believe you have a dolly! Tis, like, unheard of.

Only since you and I have gottent to know one another. I sent my first CFC packing away to N-Space inside his TARDIS awhile back.

But the pixelsmiths came through with this harlequin request of mine and I couldn't resist.

Hehe, you requested it? Clashes with your orneriness, doesn't it? :P Actually, I had it down as a jester suit rather than a harlequin :scratch:

I've made a number of . . . unusual requests of the pixelsmiths.

Harlequin/jester/fool is how I described it. It's listed as The Fool's Outfit in the armoury.

[Lisa0315]

I wore the girl's version the other day for my contest!

Lisa

[Greenthumb]

Oh wow! Is she all lovely and homely? Hmm, I hope she's alright... is the market open tomorrow, also?It's only on Saturday mornings. I expect she's probably just taking a much needed break or had something else important to do. The market has been going since May. Only a few weeks left for this year...and then...winter...:(

Humm, I've not ben for about 6 months, but I don't remember a grapefruit one :scratch: Will have a looksee next time I go. Ooh, if they have it, still, I'll send you some! :clap: That way you don't have to go to the mall :hug: Huh, actually, the only stuff of theirs I never liked is all the "white musk" stuff :sick: So sickly n abrasive.Aw...that would be very sweet of you. I wonder if you all have different smells than we have here? Could be.

Harlequin/jester/fool is how I described it. It's listed as The Fool's Outfit in the armoury.Ha! :D :hug: Is the wand-thing separate? Cos I like that. Quite want one.

[chaoschristian]

Such as...? :P

Well, the request that made me infamous with the pixelsmiths is the Zippy the Pinhead armour. Mainly because I kept requesting and requesting and requesting until they relented.

The el Pescadoro armour set is also one of my requests. It's includes the giant squid helm, lobster shield, fish scale armour and shark boots.

The Doctor Who Time Lord robes were my request, along with the Dalek. The Dalek continues to be one of favourite pieces of armoury art.

The Thread Splitter: a little guy whacking a ball of thread in half, to be awarded to people who post the post that split a thread.

Things that didn't get accepted: a giant cockroach and ABC armour (literally a request for all the characters of the alphabet with the idea that different people could wear different letters and that things could be spelt out by posting in the right order).

Ha! :D :hug: Is the wand-thing separate? Cos I like that. Quite want one.

Done.

The Doctor Who Time Lord robes were my request, along with the Dalek. The Dalek continues to be one of favourite pieces of armoury art.Dalek is excellently done, actually. Did the new(ish) series make it to America? If not, try to d/load it from somewhere, cos it's astonishingly good. The Chaos Kids will love it, too.

The Thread Splitter: a little guy whacking a ball of thread in half, to be awarded to people who post the post that split a thread.Not seen that one...

Things that didn't get accepted: a giant cockroach and ABC armour (literally a request for all the characters of the alphabet with the idea that different people could wear different letters and that things could be spelt out by posting in the right order).Cockroach idea is viiiiiile, but why didn't the letters one work? Blessings Exchange would have a ball with that.
Done.:clap: Thank you! :hug: Such a nice surprise :) Have you noticed, though, that on your character it looks ace, but on mine it just looks creepy? Like it's sentient, uneducated and full of rage :(

[chaoschristian]

Yes, we have the new Doctor Who series here. A bit delayed, but here nevertheless.

My family loves it. My wife has a crush on the Doctor (Eccleston especially) which I think was the producer's hopes, and my kids just love the show. We've watched the old series together numerous times.

Personally, I'm a Hartnell fan. Go figure - crotchetiest of the bunch.

[chaoschristian]

I think the ABC armour would have consumed all of the pixelsmiths' production capacity for the month. Probably why it was rejected.

[chaoschristian]

Cockroach idea is viiiiiile,

but on mine it just looks creepy? Like it's sentient, uneducated and full of rage :(

Did you know I love the macabre?

I have pet cockroaches, and the fact that the Fool's Fool is a little creepy tickles me.

But I get a kick out of haunted houses, dark rides and old Vincent Price and Tom Baker horror films too.

[Lel]

Have y'all noticed how quiet CF, 4U, whatever, is these days? It sort of feels like a town in the wild west that's slightly deserted :(

I love slightly deserted wild west towns, I drive around them taking pictures :)

Well, he wants no part of something that would compromise the Lord so much. And it's absolutely true that that's what's happening here.

So many of us want to stay because if every conservative Christian left... :help: But maybe staying *isn't* right. Does it mean we're supporting His being compromised?

Well, if you all leave I'm going to end up being extremely conservative here, and before I was on the conservative side of liberal ^_^

The Doctor Who Time Lord robes were my request, along with the Dalek. The Dalek continues to be one of favourite pieces of armoury art.

The Thread Splitter: a little guy whacking a ball of thread in half, to be awarded to people who post the post that split a thread.

Things that didn't get accepted: a giant cockroach and ABC armour (literally a request for all the characters of the alphabet with the idea that different people could wear different letters and that things could be spelt out by posting in the right order).


Infamous indeed ;)

Shopkeepers Competition

The shopkeeper was dismayed when a brand new business much like his own opened up next door and erected a huge sign which read BEST DEALS.
He was horrified when another competitor opened up on his right, and announced its arrival with an even larger sign, reading LOWEST PRICES.
The shopkeeper was panicked, until he got an idea. He put the biggest sign of all over his own shop-it read...
MAIN ENTRANCE.

My day has been good so far - work this morning - and none of my pupils had tried to kill themselves since Monday! Which is actually a miracle...

*Surgeon Feedback* (http://www.crosswalkmail.com/zvnappmt_tljzhvxh.html)


Surgeons invited to dinner parties are often asked to carve the meat -- or worse yet, to watch the host carve while commenting on the surgeon's occupation. At one party, a surgeon friend was watching the carving while Harry, his host, kept up a running commentary: "How am I doing, doc? How do you like that technique? I'd make a pretty good surgeon, don't you think?"

When the host finished and the slices of meat lay neatly on the serving platter, the surgeon spoke up: "Anybody can take them apart, Harry. Now lets see you put them back together again."

Girl, I have had gray hair since I was 17. I have had to color since I was in my mid twenties. It really is no big deal unless you are going to get a seriously different color. I do not recommend that. There are also some great products out there to help you keep your color after you have it done.

What is hilarious is my daughter (20) has had strands of gray since she was about 16. Her friends or I will comment on it, and she gets so angry. She will scream, "It's blonde! It is not gray!" She is a brunette, honey, and she is in big denial! ^_^

The color will change the texture of your hair. You will need to condition it very, very well, every single day because it will definitely dry it out. Your gray hair will come out a little lighter and it will look like you have natural hilights.

Just make sure you tell your hairdresser what you want. If you do not want red tints, tell her that. If you like aubern or are naturally aubern, tell her that. If you want to go lighter, tell her that, and generally as you get older, you should go lighter.

Hope this helps. You are going to love it, I am sure. It would be nice to keep our hair virgin from color but unfortunately, it doesn't work out like that.

It took a bit but got my wife to not only ditch the make up but also the "perms". I pick on her that she's graying faster than me but she says I'm the cause:D

My hubby likes the color. I like the color. I feel more confident with it. It is a very girly thing, I guess.

My husband shocked the life out of me a couple weeks ago. He went and had his head shaved. Not completely bald, but as close to it as you can get. After I got over the shock, I like it now. I rub his head every day for good luck as I leave for work. I hope he keeps it that way.

Guys are so self-concious about losing their hair, but I think on many men, it looks good. The worst thing in the world is when they try to cover it up somehow.

Lisa

[~*Lady Trekki*~]

I LOVE BALD MEN! :D

My sweetie is losing his hair and he is SO self conscious. I keep telling him that's the way I like it but I don't think he believes me. :P

[MrJim]

When I worked in the shop I kept mine shaved, even used a Mach 3 razor to keep it shiny. Since I'm on the road meetin' the public I let it grow out some, my wife says I'm intimidating enough without the skinhead.

It only works if ya got a nicely shaped skull.

^_^ Yup! :P

[3girls2dogs]

ROFL, ok, I can't do that whole quote tower thing, so I'm just gonna address ya all :)

MrJim: Your wife is a very lucky lady that you are like that. My husband is like that too, believe it or not. He's not big on the makeup, and he could care less if I'm gray or not, but I wanted to try it. My self-esteem has kinda bottomed out lately, and I thought this might brighten me up. I'm not doing anything drastic at all. And as far as the makeup, I wear foundation #1 for the sunscreen out here and #2 I am super fair with loads of freckles, and I like to even out my skintone, other than that, it's pretty much just the mascara and I'm gone. I don't like too much makeup, it bothers my contacts.

Lisa: I have a cousin who was completely gray by the time he was 20. He is so very handsome, and it was always striking on him. I think I may go with a reddish-brown, which is what my non-gray hair is now. I had a lot more red when I was younger, but that has changed. My hair is super curly normally, so I'm hoping it doesn't change the texture too much. It already frizzes when it's hot.

LT: Your pic is gorgeous. How lame am I that I never look at anyone's pics. I love your haircolor. And I know what you mean about bald guys. A lot of the Marines I know shave their heads, especially in the summer out here, because they don't want to bother with the constant haircuts. It's very sexy. I adore my husband, and I think he is about the hottest guy alive, but his ears don't work with a bald head, if ya get my drift.

Ok, I'm going to keep reading LOL. I'm trying to catch up from running my errands.

[Annabel Lee]

I started getting some gray fairly late. One day I was looking in the mirror thinking how interesting it was that my hair was getting blonder as I got older. How lucky!

Duh.
It was the gray blending in with the blonde.

I'm just popping in for a quick minute to say hi and tell everyone that there were no major hair disasters today. I really love the color. I can't wait to do it myself tomorrow. Hairdressers love to go all poodle with my hair because it's so curly, so I indulge them, but I hate it. I don't mind loose curls, but I hate how curly my natural hair is LOL.

I hope everyone is doing well today. :hug:

What color did you go with 3g2d?

[3girls2dogs]

I went with a Red. I honestly didn't have a clue when I walked in there what to even ask for. The girl that did my hair was amazing, though, and we went over color wheels. She and I agreed on a color, and it came out AMAZING. It's like a deep auburn. When I get a chance to do it myself, I will take a pic.


It bums me out, though, having curly hair. My three girls have bone straight hair and are all blond (although the teen is a different color every 6 weeks or so :) ) None of my kids look like me :sigh: LOL

Okies..I'm up for Moderator in the support forums. Wanna vote for me? ;)

Seriously though, if you don't mind, it would be great. If you don't think I should, could you let me know (kindly, please) why I shouldn't, so that I may fix what's broken. Thankies.

I love that new feature. This morning, when I woke at 5 AM, it was nice to change to the gray, which was less *shocking* without the intravenous caffeine.

:eek: and you seem so nice^_^

Honestly it's a tough job. I applied and went through some of the training before realizing I didn't have the time nor temperment for it.

After a quick check in here I head straight to the ecumenical and support reports to see who's gotten in trouble lately, then bunny trail off there before heading back here. It's fun to look at, sorta like slowing down to look at a trainwreck. But the mods get worked over (I've worked over a couple in my time ;) ) and get little respect or thanks. I think they do it 'cause they like the pain...but ya oughta try it out if ya ain't got enough pain in yer life now:P

I don't see it moving Lisa. I don't ever remember it moving. Well...ever as in the last few days LOL. That's about as far back as the old mind goes sometimes.

MrJim, I swear, you sound just like my husband. All gruff on the outside, but inside a giant mushmallow.

It must not be animated then. Good, I was thinking there was something wrong with my computer. It is supposed to be animated, but it is an img file. I wonder how you get the whole animated file to load. I know I have seen them on here...

You know all that not-nice stuff that happens between Christians here? I've been kinda staying uninvolved in the forum because of the yuckiness I feel...but have been surrounded by it in RL too...with my friends. Lately have been feeling like I'm letting God down, it's hard to defend Him, Truth, and my faith when surrounded in judgement. :sigh:

heh. a while back when I sent my original CFC off packing to N-space in the TARDIS I emptied out my closet and gave all my stuff away. I think I had something like 500 items.

I've got the blessings in the bank accruing interest. They're intended to be part of the prize money for the WWMC forum logo contest, but WWMC doesn't seem to be too horribly interested in having a logo given the level of activity the contest generated. Heh, we never even got around to setting the rules for determining the winner.

[chaoschristian]

You know - Captain Chaos wouldn't be a bad user name.

He can look after Himself, and He can look after you. Truly. If people are judging you, it's because they're questioning their own relationship with the Lord.

You love God, and He loves you. Beyond that, it's no-one else's business. You're so absolutely not letting God down. :hug:

Zippy the Pinhead having a beer or riding a llama or something :) I'd definitely visit more to see that :P Plus, you could win the blessings! Pyrrhic victory, maybe, but only losers say that's a bad thing ;)

yeah. when I got seriously disgruntled with CF a while back I changed my username to gonebowling (because that's what I did, I went bowling), then I sorta eased back in around 777 and changed it to CaptainUnderpants just because I thought it was funny (and it's still funny to see WIKIs edited by CaptainUnderpants), but through and through I'm cc.

[3girls2dogs]

Ok, there has been so much sadness tonight, and please understand; what I am about to post is in no way intended to undermine anyone's pain. I just really thought we could all use a giggle, and this is about as funny as anything I have heard lately.

I am a huge Brad Paisley fan. I think his songs are so much fun. Here is his newest: (if you think it's inappropriate, let me know, I'll remove it. It was only intended to lift the mood)

Oh, and PS: I didn't put it in the music thread because it seemed so bad to put it in there with all that lovely Christian music LOL.

I'm Still A Guy -- Brad Paisley

When you see a deer, you see Bambi
I see antlers up on the wall
When you see a lake you think picnics
I see a large mouth up under that log

You're probably thinkin’ that you're gonna change me
In some ways well maybe you might
Scrub me down, dress me up
Oh but no matter what,
Remember, I'm still a guy


When you see a priceless French painting
I see a drunk naked girl
You think that riding a wild bull sounds crazy
And I'd like to give it a whirl

Well love makes a man do some things he ain't proud of
And in a weak moment I might
Walk your sissy dog, hold your purse at the mall
But remember, I'm still a guy

And I'll pour out my heart, hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around, knock some jerk to the ground
'Cause he copped a feel as you walked by

I can hear you now talkin’ to your friends
Sayin’ yeah girls he's come a long way
From draggin’ his knuckles and carryin’ a club
And buildin’ a fire in a cave

But when you say a backrub means only a backrub
And you swat my hand when I try
Well now what can I say at the end of the day
Honey, I'm still a guy

And I'll pour out my heart
Hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around
Knock some jerk to the ground
'Cause he copped a feel as you walked by

These days there's dudes getting’ facials
Manicured, waxed, and Botoxed
With deep spray-on tans and creamy lotiony hands
You can't grip a tackle box

Yeah with all of these men linin’ up to get neutered
And headin’ out to be feminized
But I don't highlight my hair, I've still got a pair
Yeah honey, I'm still a guy

Oh, my eyebrows ain't plucked, there's a gun in my truck
Oh thank God I'm still a guy

*Military Time* (http://www.crosswalkmail.com/ovxminmv_npbnhdxh.html)

My wife Delores never quite got the hang of the 24-hour military clock. One day she called the orderly room to speak with me. The person who answered told her to call me at the extension in the band rehearsal hall.

"He can be reached at 4700, Ma'am," the soldier advised.
With a sigh of exasperation, my wife responded, "And just what time is that?"

:doh: ^_^
