Just a reminder folks: be careful on the internets.
It's a scary, scary world out there. Please be careful at ever posting much in the way of personal information. Thankfully, I think I've been careful enough, but I had the unfortunate experience today of realizing just how icky some people are.

3. I'm sorry. I'm pretty careful, because I've been burned before,
and when it happens, it's scary.

5. Agreed.
I'm glad you are ok and safe, but it's definitely a worthwhile reminder to take to heart.

8. COMPLETELY AGREE
I hope you are okay! :hug:

As a rule, I always keep the lines blurry on here. Feed the assholes slightly conflicting data, and very vague data at that.

12. Dude
If you're going to give out your *cough* social security number, learn the numbering system do you don't have him born somewhere in the Northeast

And HOLY SHIT! Has anyone read his bio? Kicked out of Baylor for drinking, and a born again Christian, and grew up in Venezuala, and his daddy worked in the oil industry there?
