    Yes, T2, Greece inspires a lot of confidence. ;) Canadian Tire money may be more valuable.

    edit: oops

    How would one acquire some Canadian Tire Dollars besides taking these horrible bribes?

    One could buy gas at a CT outlet. As well as purchasing CT merchandise directly from the store.
    But, one would have to enter the store. ..Not nearly as dangerous as entering a walmart.
    Negotiating a family of Hutterites stacked shoulder to shoulder detracts from the shopping experience.

    Wow, Canadian Tire Dollars, Hatterites, pink messages--Canada has so much.
    You even have Ian Tyson- one of my favorites.

    Saw Ian at the Jubilie Auditorium.
    He is a cowboy who likes his music slow.

    He honored us at our little Lynden Fair a few years back. He's a real working Alberta cowboy, not one of these guys that just found the hat.

    So, if anyone else has, at the top of the page- " Javascript disabled detected" - it is in pink. Like some of the messages I have received. Why would SOME personal messages show up in pink, and others not.

    Massages, messages- what's the difference

    Hi Poppy, that might be your browser giving you that message and not the site. I'd like to see a screen cap if you are able to show me what's coming up. As to why it's pink, I've no idea other than the site fancies you. :)

    A screen cap...is that like a shower cap-
    Greek to me. How would one go about obtaining a screen cap?

    Hitting the print screen button will generally get you a screen capture that you can then paste where you want it. If that doesn't work try hitting "ctrl printscreen"

    Tried "print screen" - nada
    Tried "control" then "print screen"- nada

    Here is a copy/paste- hope pink messages show up:


    Thanks for the salute Poppy ole' friend. I always thought the Tabasco rich boy, being a combat decorated hero/badass, was an interesting bit of trivia.

      Dude, you are pink. How do you do that? Bendeswaff(?) replied in pink, which caused me to create the Pink thread.
      But now, your last 3 replies are pink. Any coincidence your 1st pink message was on April fools day?

    Ok, looks like you have to paste it into something other than the reply window. If you hit printscreen then open an app that can take images ( wordpad works and it comes with windows) then you get an image. I think the default is bit map (BMP) which may be why you can't paste it into the reply window.

    If you paste it into paint you can save it as whatever appropriate file type you want then go from there to post it.

    Yes, i have no paint...no wordpad.
    Went into "all programs". ..Pretty sure Paint/Word did not survive the last ww2f cleansing. I took a hatchet to the software, like Lizzy Borden. Prolly removed all the wrong stuff, and virus/trojan is still living a happy life within this computer.

    Both are normally under accessories. Any thing that can edit photos will work though, at least I think it will.

    Well, can't replicate the pink. ..Guessing it is just because I don't have java script enabled...But why only 2 peeps had pink on my message page is a mystery. Mysteries are good.
    Unless it is causing grief to the site or any users- willing to let it drop.
    Would take pic with phone and send in, if it really mattered.
