2 WINNERS!!! New Contest-Let’s get to chatting!
Let’s liven up the forum with some chitchat! Any member can post anew thread with a topic for discussion, in the Chit Chat forum. It can be a question, an observation, or an article posted from any form of media (please provide a link, if possible). The contest rules are as follows:- Keep it clean and not mean. In other words, nothing obscene, and let’s not get snippy. You certainly don’t have to agree, but let’s debate an issue, not argue a point.
- Post your opinion only. You can cite facts to back your point, but give a reference if you refer to an article, quote, etc. No making up crap!
- You will receive 1 point for each post OF RELEVANCE. In other words, just posting a smilie doesn’t count. The post should have meaning and contribute to the conversation, not just “I agree”, etc.
- You will also get one additional point for each different person that posts in your thread, but only for the first time they post. Your posts do not count, although you are encouraged to post to keep you topic in readers minds or add new information, but not to introduce a whole new topic.
- You may post as many new threads as you like, but only the one with the post points will eventually count.
- The game will end at midnight CST, on May 31st.
- The winner will get a prize package from me!

most of the time I am not very good at expressing myself but sure do feel encouraged when I read what others write. Please continue.

Gayle, it might be an article that you see online and you post a link to it and ask for everyone's opinion. Don't think you have to reinvent the wheel or get up on a soap box  .

I have read and have been helped through the ways to post things but I always get all mixed up. My mind just doesn't get it. Pictures or articles or contests that I see some place I don't know how to put them on here. Glad everyone shares with me anyway.
