Welcome to DP, Syrenn.

We really need to stop calling it DP. Those of us with our minds in the gutters....

I too don't know her profession since she has not said.

Jim, back on the AOL forum, a prostitute, a call girl started posting. She spent time defending her job. Said she did a lot of traveling and made huge sums of money.

She was fun to talk too.

Many people think they are fun to do other things with Robert!--;););)--Tyr

Welcome Betty. The temptations are many, and you've probably heard them hundreds of times.
So. I won't ask the obvious.
How many times did you vote for Obama?

ok just fyi everyone
And I'm NOT going to allow her to just log in and chat or read. It will be very selective and very infrequent, there's nothing I'll let her see that hasn't been screened by me 1st.

And I wouldn't want people to feel they have to bite their tongues when talking to me because my daughter might see it. Especially while I'm whole hog trying pummel their positions to dust LOL!

But, i think, there are few issue that we discuss here that it will be good for her to see how some other adults view things. Seeing her reaction to the few things I've showed her in the past her has been kinda funny. one of the 1st that she really read was the thread on the news story of the kindergartner at school with the water gun, she couldn't believe that ConHog had been a real policemen. She really wanted to set him strait LOL.

I think it would be cool if she would ask general questions too, I think some would have fun "teaching" her, which of course would turn into a political debate. :)

I think we should create a "family political discussion" forum, and we can literally restrict every forum but that one to the kids. When they login they will only see the one forum. If any adult member abuses that forum, they get an immediate short term ban. I think the whole board would agree to keep things tame and respectful for any of them. It might not be a lot, but I think it's cool to see the younger ones being interested in political stuff!

Indeed. You brought it up, could label it something like the under 18 and above forum. Block the under 18 from other forums. Of course all is self-reporting, but that is on the parents. Obviously Rev or other custodians could choose to let the minors see selected threads, but that is on them, not you.

Seems to me to be with a good intro and name, a drawing point to this site, if we can 'hit it' on google.

I can go ahead and do so, but I'm afraid we may not have much posting in it, as I think this would be our only minor member. I would love to encourage others though, and parents may let them if there is a "secure" place for them to do so. But in the beginning, it would be pretty much empty. But it can still be a "safe zone" where, for example, Rev can let his daughter go in there and ask some questions and start new threads all of her own - and anyone participating with them MUST follow the specific rules set forth for the minors forum? Maybe a "Political Introduction for Teens" or something like that?

If a child shows up, registers and participates, I agree. In Rev's case, he's not letting her on here, or even into a specific thread, unless he is there with her to approve. As for what Kath and I are discussing, if a parent tells me they would like their kid to participate in the forum we are envisioning, they wouldn't even see the rest of the board, only this one forum for kids.

BUT, there is still a problem. When they come to DP, prior to logging in, they can see all the forums as a guest. They won't see it any longer once logged in, but I can't prevent guests from seeing the forum without preventing 'bots' and search engines from seeing them.

Jim. Keep in mind. As I suspect you will. Kids are far more Computer Savvy than a large percentage of adults these days.
If they are looking for something...anything on the Internet. Unless there are installed PARENTAL CONTROLS. They will find whatever they are searching for. Even with the Controls in place.
Rule of thumb for today's kids. If you tell them THEY CAN'T do something. That warning is the reason THEY WILL.

Oh, don't I know that too well! The only way they could let this happen - would be with parental permission. A parent would have to ASK me to create an account for their kid. After that, I can make sure the one forum is suitable, the computer stuff is up to the parent though!

Gosh it's good to hear from someone who feels the same regarding their own progeny's idiocies. All 3 of mine are liberal, some more than others. Would I give them this site? No. They are rather educated, but their 'arguments' 'fall short. They know that, we've been round it in RL too often.

They fall back on, "You don't get the future." Yeah, no point.

Their assumption is that while their positions politically and economically may not 'seem' to be rational today, in the long run, their position of big government, is the future. Mine is wrong.

Jim just seeing what you've got in mind. And i think your right about not much going on initially unless some other youngens get on board. but if you have an area ready for it then who knows maybe others will find it. but parental supervision is key. you can do somethings but it's on the parents.

As i mentioned -Kid Force- is mainly reading the few threads i allow her in.
She Not that politically aware but she is somewhat interested and knows it important. She doesn't like Obama because she's solidly anti-war, except in defense. I'm so proud. And she really beginning to see the difference in what the constitution and Bill of right says and how the gov't often does not follow through or does the opposite.
She more or less watched some of the presidential debates with me and was mainly interested because of my animated commentary, occasional yelling at the screen and calling people liars. Not something i'm known for. My wife is liberal on most issues and extremely conservative on a few but she wanted Hillary as prez:rolleyes:. So my daughter was subject to the what i'm allowed to say to my wife about various subjects before she decides she doesn't want to talk about it anymore. At the very least a few times after those very friendly but frank talks. (over the years we've learned how to do that) my daughter has slapped me on the back and said she's agrees with me. I'm so proud of her... Wise child... well maybe she should have been more discrete. i think my wife went into some secret councils with my daughter behind my back.. but it didn't work :).

anyway I'd say, If your going to put up a family section don't be to surprised if it's low traffic. I'm doing it on my end because she has shown some interest and i'm pretty familiar with you guys :cool:. but we're taking it slow on over here.

Hi everyone. Found your site and looked good so decided to take the plunge. I'm married to a wonderful woman who's been my biggest support for 22 years, have 3 awesome children and retired from the USCG after 23 years. Nowadays I run my own boat charter and do random odds and ends for extra cash. I'm a huge sports fan and root for all Pittsburgh teams (where I'm from). Also like to travel, read, follow politics and spend time with the family.

Nice meeting you all and look forward to reading all the discussions going on. Take care everyone.

Pittsburgh.

I lived in Pittsburgh in the earlier 80's, found it better than i expected left it sooner than i wanted to.

lived in Oakland and near Duquesne University for a while. flopped at friends house in Shaddyside when i ran outta money and job and had to go home.

Good memories, some life changing events for me there.

still not a Stealers fan though. My brother and Dad were hard cord Stealers fans. it was great when i lived there that my team, the Raiders, beat them in the Superbowl... from the wildcard spot no less.:thumb:

A man from Steelers land, that's awesome! I've been a fan from the early to mid-70's when I was just a kid. Probably spent a billion dollars on Steelers memorabilia since then and even have a Steelers tattoo. From the days of Bradshaw, Greene & Harris - then I lived through Stoudt, Malone, Lipps and the late 80's and early 90's, then been having a blast right through the Cowher and Tomlin eras with Roethlisberger, Bettis, Ward and all the great new players, and of course the 2 new Lombardi's!!

As Freud would say, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." I too came here from another site, RedState.com . I was looking for relatively conservative site that didn't go ape when someone disagreed with the "blessed" opinion.

New user here. Looking for a place that actually debates topics, is civil, and knocks the partisan trolls off the rolls quickly. Far too many sites I have been on are either lopsided in membership, or a joke when it comes to their 'moderation', full of hacks, etc.

I dislike both of the big two political parties, as they are more similar than different in the big picture. I have been called a leftist and a righty depending on the topic. I hope to find this place is different from all the other ones, but I am almost to the point of believing a good place exists. Will stick around and see how this place is.

New user here. Looking for a place that actually debates topics, is civil, and knocks the partisan trolls off the rolls quickly. Far too many sites I have been on are either lopsided in membership, or a joke when it comes to their 'moderation', full of hacks, etc.

I dislike both of the big two political parties, as they are more similar than different in the big picture. I have been called a leftist and a righty depending on the topic. I hope to find this place is different from all the other ones, but I am almost to the point of believing a good place exists. Will stick around and see how this place is.Welcome Arbo, if your looking for meddle of the road, not sure how we measure up, IMO you will find a civil group, that tries to enjoy Political, and social issues without taking our self's to serious.

Thanks for the welcome. I haven't browsed through much yet, but we'll see how it goes. I have a good sense of humor and like a good laugh, just hoping to find it's not a 'home of flames' like so many other places.

BTW, is there a place where you can set auto subscribe to threads you post to? I couldn't find it.

I left Defending the Truth because it turned out they preferred "avoiding" the truth to defending it and the forum was constantly spammed by inept leftists which were supported by the inept moderators of that forum.

Hi. I'm lost. Can someone tell me where the restrooms are?

Oh and what time does Happy Hours start around here?

The restroom is on the head of a poster called Gabosaurus. Fertilize her generously. We have no Happy Hour, only Angry Hour! Breaking chairs is NOT against the rules.

I'm a stoned slacker - we don't do "angry" - we do mellow and calm and other kumbaya shit. :cool:

Welcome to DP!! And I'm going to refer to you as LG, as that's WAY too much for me to type! :salute: :beer:

Oh, you have no idea how much I can relate to that. I quit, but I think I'm still stoned from the amount I've smoked over the years! :coffee:

Thanks for the warm welcome. And I was really joking about being a stoned slacker. I'm actually a fairly responsible mother of three. Although, I admit, there are days when I wish I could fire up a bong and forget about the world.

Oh man, I just admitted my stoner history for no reason! :lol: I'm a fairly responsible parent of just one myself. And I can relate to the bong comment too, based again off of history. Many times I "disappeared" with my bong. :420:

Now I just drink like 2 cases of beer a day!! :alcoholic:

Nah, just coffee these days!! :coffee2:

Thank you dah-link. Tonight, I had a very healthy dinner of fruit salad. Okay, it was actually just grapes. Fermented grapes if you really must know. Share with you? I don't think so.

I would also like to Welcome our new members here. However. A quick review of the Welcome's here over the last several weeks....speaking only for myself. Seem to have been lost on NOW questionable, sincere members.

So. I will withhold a genuine welcome. To be expressed later as familiarity with new members is established.

Reminds me of that old saying: "Fool me once...."

Thank you everyone. Just after I signed up for the forum. I was informed that my Dad has a form of leukemia that is very aggressive and he may only have 3 months to live :chinese: He has agreed to be part of a clinical study. I am so afraid of losing him. He is the greatest man I have ever known. And a great American.

I immediately drove to Alabama to see him. Wow, what a drive.....One of his wishes was for all of his children to be with him at the same time. There are 6 of us.

He has carved himself out one beautiful piece of America. I am soo proud of him.

Thank You Sir. I feel like a bolder is lying on my chest. I am not sure how to live my life without my Daddy in this old ugly world

I know that feeling all to well, I lost my Mom a few years ago and lost my oldest son when he was just 2 days old, it takes time but you will learn to live with it. people say it gets easier with time, I don't believe that I believe we learn how to deal with it. My oldest son would of been 27 this year and on the 19th of this month it hurt, we just learn to live with it.

I wish you the best with this, and remember don't worry about it now, enjoy the time you have left, make what ever time y'all have great time !!

Your not alone here. Tyr's Mom is in pretty bad shape and Sassy recently lost her sister. Jeff and Jim lost their Mom not long ago so this is a great place for moral support.

Greetings and Salutations....

Just stepping in real quick-like to say "Hey" before going back to Lurker Mode.

I will likely start participating at some point but want to get a better feel for the joint -- specifically its members and its rhythms and tones of discussions/debates, especially when things escalate (as they inevitably do when it comes to politics) before jumping into the fray.

Gotta say, though, that I do like what I've seen so far :popcorn: :happy0100: .

Sorry to hear of that.

I lost my Dad to cancer 2 days before the 9/11 attacks, and just lost my little brother a few days ago.

All I can say is that it sucks and there's no easy way to deal with it. But knowing it's coming is better than learning you just lost him unexpectedly and you didn't get to say your goodbyes and prepare.

One thing that Dad did that I don't think he realized was so important to me now is his journal. He wrote in it, giving advice and remembering different events... it was for himself at the time but now it's priceless - kind of a link to him and his thoughts beyond the grave. It helped me a lot as I was coping after he was gone and I couldn't talk to him anymore.

So no dedicated "Introduction" forum, just a single, thread that everyone has to pass around? Talk about sloppy seconds, thirds, etc. Fucking cheapskates. :laugh:

Anyway, Hi - My name is... umm, Boris. I'm a Sagittarius, I like fishing, hiking, ATV riding, drinking beer (on the beach preferably), blowjobs (getting, not giving... ahem..) and I'm a closet Abba fan.

I'm a fiscal conservative, social moderate although I test liberal on those political chart thingys.

So welcome me!
