• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Missing---Joke Forum, so I'll just start a thread.

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four
young mothers and their small children.
"You all have obsessions," he observed.
To the first mother, Mary, he said, "You are obsessed with eating.
You've even named your daughter Candy."
He turned to the second Mom, Ann: "Your obsession is with money.
Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."
He turned to the third Mom, Joyce: "Your obsession is alcohol. This
too shows itself in your child's name, Brandy."
At this point, the fourth mother, Kathy, quietly got up, took her
little boy by the hand, and whispered, "Come on, Dick, this guy has
no idea what he's talking about. Let's pick up Peter and Willy from
school and go get dinner.
 
Little Miss Muffett
Sat on her tuffett
Eating her curds and whey.
Along came a spyder
And sat down beside her
And she jumped on that sucker and rode it off into the sunset.
 
I was really looking forward to my 10th high school reunion.
I couldn't help thinking about the cheer leaders I had known.

This is a shot of them back then:

At the reunion, I saw them.

This is a shot of them now:
Now.jpg

I have not been to another reunion since!
 
Jack was taking a walk in the park on his lunch break.
He saw a well dressed older gentleman sitting on a park bench sobbing his eyes out.
Jack couldn't help stopping.
He asked the elderly man 'What is the problem? Can I help you?'.
The old man looked up, and, wiping tears from his swollen eyes with a monogrammed handkerchief, said
'It's a bit of a long story, young man.
You see, I was recently married. My wife is a drop dead gorgeous 25 year old swim suit model.
At first I thought she was looking for my home and life insurance.
After the first month, I came to realize she really cared for me.
She would get up early each morning, greet me with a warm smile and a big kiss and make fresh coffee, and a healthy breakfast. She is an amazing cook!
Before she left for her latest photo shoot, she would lay out my wardrobe for the day. All of which were tailored for me as her gift to me.
At noon, she would come home, give me a very warm hug and kiss, prepare a delicious lunch, and tell me all about her morning.
Then each evening she would cook a scrumptious dinner.
Afterward we would snuggle on the couch with a glass of my favorite wine, and talk about our day.
Then, at bed time she would put on her most appealing lingerie, and make sweet gentle love with me.
I have never been happier, until today.'
Jack listened in amazement at the old man's story, but could find no reason for the elderly man's grief.
'But why are you sitting here crying your eyes out?' Jack asked him.
The miserable look on the old man's face was heart wrenching.
As his tears began anew, the gentleman sobbed 'Ive forgotten where I live!'

If only I knew you posted this before I read the above post... :banghead:
 
THE EIGHTY-THREE YEAR OLD LADY FINISHED HER ANNUAL PHYSICAL EXAMINATION, THE DOCTOR SAID, "YOU ARE IN FINE SHAPE FOR YOUR AGE, MRS. GREEN, BUT TELL ME, DO YOU STILL HAVE INTERCOURSE?"
"JUST A MINUTE, I'LL HAVE TO ASK MY HUSBAND", SHE SAID.

SHE STEPPED OUT INTO THE CROWDED RECEPTION ROOM AND YELLED OUT LOUD:

"BOB, DO WE STILL HAVE INTERCOURSE?"

THERE WAS A COMPLETE HUSH - YOU COULD HAVE HEARD A PIN DROP.

BOB ANSWERED IMPATIENTLY, "IF I TOLD YOU ONCE, IRMA, I'VE TOLD YOU A HUNDRED TIMES.




WHAT WE HAVE IS...

BLUE CROSS!"
