There's just something about FB and Twitter that people act like they are anonymous when communicating. I used to occasionally troll the guitar boards when I was 15 and would post things like "Geddy Lee is the worst singer ever". But as I got older, I valued places on the internet where people communicated as if they were sitting next to them. This is one of those rare places and I hope we keep it that way.

I am on a telecaster forum, and agree on Geddy Lee ;)

I don't visit the FB page, but the sad thing is this: New guy buys his first pair of AE, which I have a feeling he was pretty proud of, so posted a pix. The decent thing to do, would be to say something along the lines of "Welcome to the community"

I "finally" joined FB a few years ago because my wife was sick of me asking her to see photos and updates of "my side" of the family. Within a few days I came to the conclusion that FB, like most social media, is filled with pictures of peoples children, food, and cats (specifically cat videos). As quickly as I found all those "FB friends" over the course of my first week on FB, I used my second week on FB to cull my list to only family.

A few months ago I joined the AE FB group. And then a few days later, I left it realizing it was not for me. If you want to know why, read the many reasons posted here as they all seem to fit my reasons for leaving as well.

Company I retired from, required me to have a FB page, so I spent some time poking around there. Still have a homepage, or whatever it is called, haven't posted in over 4 yrs. I do frequent a friends FB page relating to cooking, but other than that....couldn't care less. I like it here, generally more friendly, less BS, and we all like shoes.

Cats! At least we will never see a cat picture in this safe space.

Any 9 D guys interested in these for $100? I'm not for certain they are D-width, but I would think most likely they are.

Well, if we’ve breached the cat barrier....

Milhouse finished his 84 days daily shots and entered the “observation phase” of his treatment a few weeks ago. He seems to be doing well.

It appears to be a New Jersey based company that sells a lot of Alden. I've never bought from them, but they appear to be legit.
I am 9D. But like you said the width is not specified, if it is EEE I will be out of $100 ?

thank you for heads up through

Maybe call tomorrow? I'm sure they could check for you. $100 is a steal for those.

Edit: Ok, I should have done this sooner, but READ the Yelp reviews before buying. Some are a bit concerning.
