What’s going on with this web page????

It has changed and now there’s no longer an “Up Arrow”, no way to reply to the individual poster, and the topic titles are in much larger print.

Be Aware--- that could mean that there is some malware on your computer and it might have been triggered by this site- I am not sure but the same thing happened to me yesterday and I had all kinds of bells and whistles come in from my virus software.

I shut the puter down and rebooted and all was well.

Maybe John can check it out- I send an alert to him.

What browser and op are you using ?

Another great  day in the adventure of exploration and sight.

Yep, I got the bells and whistles yesterday and went to a different web site and then came back. I guess I should have shut my computer down instead. Geeeez!

I am running on Windows 7 and the Internet Explorer.

Thanks for your reply...hope I’m not in big trouble here!

Something is definitely wrong on this site, somewhere.

I did a virus scan and even an extended scan for mal-ware, and all is OK on my end.


Thanks John

It works fine if you are a minority. It's Obama restricting your right to free speech. The arrows will be replaced with sicles and hammers. First they take your arrows...

Judge Smails....Cute.

I don’t know how old you are or your education level. But I’ll say this....

Be careful of what you laugh at and remember.....you don’t know, what you don’t know.

Back years ago, a person I knew told me that one day, the Mexicans would be running this country. He was Mexican himself, born and raised here. I asked him why he said that and he told me that it was pretty obvious. That with Mexican families having twice the number of kids other couples have, and the constant Mexican traffic over the border, the Mexican American voters would increase their numbers greatly, because they had babies here that instantly became citizens. When those babies grew up, they would be voting to change our country. And their votes would be for socialism. This was forty years ago.
Then, I thought he was crazy. Who would vote for socialism????

This is what is happening today. Now to be clear, the Latino community is a very family oriented and good people. But they are not aware of the history of how socialism works it’s way into communism. Being a very idealistic people, they think in simplistic ways. The Latinos around the world have been taken in by socialism, time and time again. Just look at Spain.

All I have heard for the past two days is how the Latinos voters were the reason Obama was voted in for another four years. As well as how the Latino voters had to be pleased with Republicans or they would never vote for them. Every day thousands of Latinos become eighteen and able to vote.

I think you get the picture. We are headed for socialism. Need I say more?

In the meantime, check your "Tools, Compatibility View" menu, and that will at least let you see the whole width of the entries, and reply to individual posts. But it still looks weird.

Hey all,
I had to take the forum down last night to complete an upgrade... I usually drag my feet on this because as you can see, the skins get hosed when I do it. However it looks like it fixed the Internet Explorer hack that seemed to be appearing. I'll be playing with the look & feel over the weekend; feel free to comment on any additions you notice.
