The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

hehe....funny you should mention that. Sunday night after it happened, my hand was swelling up and having nothing else in the house I did indeed use rubbing alcohol on the wound. WEEEEEEE. You should have seen the nurse's face when I told her about it. Everyone else used some weak iodine stuff.



btw, mercurochrome, that stuff we all grew up with, has been banned in the US around 1998 for containing mercury. go figure.
