GB, if you look at the Forums page, which you have to do to post in any forum, right after General (with explanations) you see Help (help using the site). It couldn't be any clearer. Anyway, why pick on me? I'm the seventh poster in this thread who didn't respond directly to the OP, who'd already had the only answer he could possibly get given the content of his post.
"Anyway, why pick on me?"

Not picking or nitpicking. It's an appeal. Just in case I haven't told you lately, I happened to appreciate your knowledge of the site; your sensitivity to human behavior; and demonstrated desire to offer assistance to new people. It's easy to lose sight of the fact that long ago there were questions we all had about things that are old hat to us now. As to ignoring the guys, my interest was in helping get Jim into the groove not getting into a locker room contest about who could keep posting repartee the longest. Sometimes guys are dumb. You're smarter than to stoop to that level.

P.S. The other day you bemoaned the fact that excessive association threads were causing this forum to become a drag. Curious as to your assessment of "Remember Dick & Jane". Hoped it would appeal to your awareness of reading and writing disorders, and language expertise.

In the general Western Hemisphere, that would be called 'luring', Bobby. 😞\

-m. 😲

Edit: Is the name Jim appealing to you in relation to Jim Saville, perhaps?

Luring: "Tempt (a person or an animal) to do something or to go somewhere, esp. by offering some form of reward: 'the child was lured into a car'."

There's no reward, except the knowledge that you've helped someone in need.

Never met Jim Saville.

Jim's my children's stepfather; jimslyp (sp) contributes interesting posts.

He's a RHP Brother. Let's hope bigerjim decides to stay.

An attorney who treats my two as generously and even handedly as his own.

My son, to this day, refers to him as 'Jim'.

Let's get this bus back on topic.

The topic's bigerjim's need to learn his way around.

Okay.

So, he's sleeping in.

Let's get off our duffs and send him a few personal message wake up alarms.

Curse the darkness, H/A or light a candle.

My son's attorney's name is Bob. How's that for a coincidence?

Blow the candles out before you nod off. No need to start a fire.
