About commenting ... since we've been receiving those strange comments I enabled "Comment Moderation." This allows me, as moderator, to approve or deny comments before they're posted. I'll try to approve your comments quickly.
I played/competed from 8 pm to 10:30 last night. I couldn't believe how fast time went by. I got up to 43 but kept falling back.
Did you know there are 29000 grains of rice in a pound. Maybe I should have sent a check.
Love
dad
