Keysha would you like a room at my house. My daughter is 13 and she believes for some reason I've never been that age. I was the best at the game. I'm on disability at a young age so she believes because I'm slow in my day that I can't hear or see "whatz up". We need somewhere for parents like me. I'm sure there are other people on site that have teens. If not, I can get you a room :o)

Welcome to the house, please make it your "home". We love that you're here. Enjoy your stay and come visit our group at Coffee Talk.

Guurrrrllllll! Where were you and your book when I was fourteen? LOL. Great title and website - very fast loading (as Martha would say "That's a good thing.").

Greetings and welcome to the community, Keysha.

SPAM IS SO NOT COOL!

Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.
We have lost numerous members because of the amount of 'friend' mail they instantly receive. This Hurts Everyone.
Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.

Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.

We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam.
SPAMMING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED

Stop it already! Stop misleading the flock! Jesus Christ! Sophia DID NOT WIN A DAMN THING! You guys are revealing more and more that you are in the business of helping this woman, who in my opinion is acting like a con artist, sell her book!

Yep, the power of "facts" on the internet. Ain't it grand? People take forwards as gospel. Do you all also believe that Barack Obama shouldn't be president because he's not an American citizen? It' says he's not on the internet! I kinda wanted this…
