paying the piper

The soup has a shortage of ads
Let’s call for more saying egads! 
While they interfere
With the reason we’re here
We'll learn about doodads and fads

Andrea Dietrich Date: 12/28/2023 8:58:00 AM Ha. There is a ridiculous furniture ad always coming up when I try to get to my member area. What a pain. It can't be x'd out Login to Reply Duke Beaufort Date: 12/28/2023 9:33:00 AM It’s getting worse every so often. They used to be on the side. Now they try to camouflage the “x” so we even end up clicking on the ad. Maybe they want you to buy a couch! Duke Beaufort Date: 12/28/2023 9:33:00 AM It’s getting worse every so often.

Christina Bowring Date: 12/27/2023 3:21:00 PM Great limerick Duke that made me smile a lot. You are so good at this form. Adverts are so annoying so I can understand you wanting to get rid of them. Blessings to you :):) Login to Reply Duke Beaufort Date: 12/27/2023 7:33:00 PM You are very kind Christina. It forces brevity, which I seek. I can't write long pieces that take stamina. When I write prose for work (which I am quitting soon), it always seems quite painful.

Tom Cunningham Date: 12/23/2023 9:35:00 PM So true, we only have to search for something for eg a car and trackers stick to you like limpets and for days after you get images of cars grrrrr. Merry Christmas Duke. Tom Login to Reply Duke Beaufort Date: 12/27/2023 4:15:00 AM I broke down and payed for a membership to get rid of these. Can't stand it anymore!!
