Am still trying to familiarize myself with everything in here & promise to ...
"Fear God, honor the ADMIN, shoot straight, and keep clean." :)
A minced oath (I think it's called) from an expression a friend of ours used to say. Anyone knowing the real wording he actually did use in the above ...
Will get a Karma from me, when I find out how to do it, that is.

Also: it's a partial quote of 1 Peter 2:17, with additions.
(A "minced oath" is an innocuous-sounding expression used in place of a holy name or venerated object: "Gee" for "Jesus", "darn" for "damn", and the now seldom heard "gadzooks" for "God's Hooks", meaning the nails used in the crucifixion.)

Thanks ExGeeEye, the above I did know, but ...
I used the wording "honor the ADMIN" in an attempt to be humorous, as a venerated personage instead of the real one in the expression.

Thanks, nice to be able to communicate with you again as well!
Also, must tell you, I get a kick out of your sign in name, "third-try"
I finally, signed into one of my favorite shopping sites as "Last Try" :-)

3rd-try:
Years ago when CU went to an entirely different format we had to re-sign in. Mine wouldn't work. After about 10 tries I started from scratch with new password and user name. So, when that didn't work I tried a 3rd time using 3rd-try not thinking it would work. It worked and I was afraid to touch it for fear of getting shut out again.
