There’s got to be a better way. We verify who we are when we sign in so why must we deal with it again? Thanks, Joseph.

I'm always afraid I will miss something! Indeed, annoying! I guess we can thank the hackers, trolls and cyber trouble makers! Grrrr! Blessings on your soup mail!

Thanks so very much, Sam. I don't use it often, but it's annoying when I do. I'll thank trolls for nothing except for staying beneath the bridge Jan mentioned.

I've had buses and bikes to verify - I think we should be able to tailor make our own choice of subject - romantic could have roses, I could have toilets/poop, perhaps the trolls could have bridges lol. hugs jan xx

LOL I can't possibly beat your idea of what should appear in those boxes based on an individual's personality. No trolls for me. Toilets are perfect for you. I'm for David's idea of men or women, decently attired... of course... well maybe some Chip and Dale dancers for me like the one I know. Or at least Chip and Dale!

Yes it's true. Security sucks. It's far from an ideal world where we have to lock everything up. Whatever happened to people's honor not to steal what doesn't belong to them!! Your rhyme scheme is excellent.

Thank you for such a kind compliment, Duke. It's become a "What's in it for me" world.

Sounds like a plan, Stan. Gus said I should stop making a fuss and set myself free. ;-) I’ll take a pass on the peeing.

Hey great Monoku rhyme, all syllable perfect too, sorry Lin I always count them, yeah I thought all that stuff was supposed to stop once you became a life time member, why don’t they have pretty girls in bikinis to count, or for the soup ladies the male equivalent, just a suggestion, cheers David

Ha. I count syllables too, of Monoku other people post. Guess we’re both weird. I’m all for your idea of hunky men counting whatever! Thanks, David.

Hello Lin, yes that box is pressed to show we are not robots. We know we are not robots. But we must press that box all the time when using the soup mail. Enjoy your evening my friend. /Darlene\

Lately, when sending soup mai, that irritating picture shows up asking to mark boxes in which busses, bridges, etc must be verified to prove we’re not a robot before it will be sent.

YES, I do! Why is that happening now? Another PS glitch that should be shoveled into a ditch. We need those personified shovels to start digging.
