Ad Block is my friend. In fact, if I were to give anyone my money, it would go to the creators of Ad Block.

Or are they capitalists? That is not a meant in any political manner.

Well, there is one advantage to being a Gold Member. Today, I got an injection molded licence plate frame in the mail from S2KI.com, completely free of charge, thanking me for being a Gold Member. Had to cost them at most $2.50 in materials, labor and postage to ship it ($1.80 was postage) Eat your hearts out, guests!

I was going to post that you have to pay to receive PMs and I see someone already pointed that out. Lainey I have an email to send to you, I once had your email address but I don't think it survived my last computer disaster. Would you send it to me PM again? Can you send PMs just not receive? My address is the same if you still have it.

Also look at the friends we have all made here. Isn't that worth the membership fee?

Maybe guests are limited. I've tried to PM guests in the past with no luck.

Maybe I should clean my mailbox.

Yeah, it is limited. Delete a bunch of old ones. I got yours and sent you one in return.
