"Why is the government getting involved in people's lives like this?" Van Schoiak said. "What purpose do we have in deciding that a couple who are or 17 years old, their parents say, you know, `you guys love each other, ahead and get married, you have my permission.' Why would we stop that?" tps://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article288424893.html#s y link=cpy

I say let them do it, especially if they have children. I'm not for much ol marrying younger, though.

I had a kid young and i would have married young if i had the opportunity at the time. we were in a 'common law' marriage for 11 years. that's better th most adults I know.

I also didn't live with my parents until I was 35.

Marriage is such a joke now. People shouldn't marry without an ironclad prenup. Even if you're poor.

I moved out my folks home on my 18th birthday. I would have loved to stay there forever but it was a small home and there were 4 of us there and I wanted to 'do my thing'. I sure wish I stayed longer. There were some good times in that house. :)

i thought you were the sysop because so many people (239) on that bbs
have the sysop's ip address and weird last one dates going back to 1995.

go into your msg settings and set the pointer date.

He does not know. I have a few that only log in a couple times a month and read messages. Digital man explained about websocket reflecting my ip instead of some of the callers ip. I don't plan on fixing it because I am not sure it is
a problem. A lot of the user list here may go back before 1995. Lol. We have been around a long time. Do you run a BBS? I am not sure how to keep my group from replying to your posts. Hopefully it will not be that many. I hope you have a good week.

i thought that too but when i went on your bbs via the web telnet app
it didn't have the same results. that's the first thing i checked.

Good morning MRO!
I started on a CoCo2 running Colorama BBS software, then went to RBBS-PC for a number of years, then to PowerBBS for a year then over to Synchronet in the mid 90's. Do you run a BBS? Thanks for asking! I enjoy talking about the old days of BBS. I have no further answers on the Websocket issue you are having. That is is a question for the programmers that created the software. I appreciate your investigation. I feel honored! Have a great day my friend.
