Amazon has started their Black Friday sales and there are some great deals to be had! As you shop this holiday season, please consider using the forum's Amazon.com link (listed in the menu as "Amazon Link") to add items to your cart and purchase them. The forum gets a small commission from every item sold.

Additionally, the forum gets a "bounty" for various offers at Amazon.com. For instance, if you sign up for a 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, the forum will earn $3. Same if you buy a Prime membership for someone else as a gift! Trying out or purchasing an Audible membership will earn the forum a few bucks. And creating an Amazon Business account will send a $15 commission our way.

Your personal information is completely private, I only get a list of items that were ordered/shipped via the link, no names or locations or anything. This does not cost you anything extra and it helps offset the operating costs of this forum, which include our hosting fees and the yearly registration and licensing fees.

Stay safe and well and thank you for your participation in the Forum and for your support!! --Deborah

                • No I never been in prison, I did have a close friend who ran a blind pig. I had many all night games there with different people. My friend got busted to many times, he went away for a couple years for selling alcohol without a licence (I think) and he came out much better player for sure.

                      • In the last real undecided race, Dem TJ Cox has pulled ahead of incumbent (R) David Valadeo in CA-21. If Cox wins, as the experts say he will, Dems will pick up an even 40 seats.

                        Also, 7 California House Republicans represented districts Hillary Clinton won in 2016. If Valadeo loses, every single one of them was just kicked out of office.

                        EDIT: There were also 25 seats in 2016 that voted for Clinton and a Republican representative. If Valadeo loses, Dems flipped 22 of 25 seats.

                              My hobby is keeping track of House races where a Trump sycophant gets punched in the nose and they're destroyed, bleeding profusively, and being dragged off into obscurity.

                              It's an amazing hobby. Lots of things to keep track of. Want me to help you get started?
