Hi,
This is my third attempt at posting. I haven't received a reply from the moderator about what I may be doing wrong. I'm registered so I'm not sure what else is needed. Do I still have to post five times before I'm accepted to the forum? Help!

This post worked, so I don't know what might be wrong.

Welcome, tell us about your car.
BTW, I grew up, worked, and spent 50 years in AA county. The way it changed, the only thing I miss are steamed crabs.

Welcome from the Eastern Shore. Pics are a must. What ever the problem with posting seems to be done. Maybe we could get together sometime.

Welcome again

[QUOTE=Tadpole11;726264]Aaargh, I just spent 20 minutes composing my cars' story, tried to preview the post, and got kicked off. Second time that has happened so I don't think I'll review my stuff anymore. I'll try to post tomorrow a nice reply to the folks who welcomed me and give y'all the details on the new old Olds. If I can, I'll post my pics in the empty album that I've created.

Thanks Joe. I'm just old and easily confused. I'm impressed with your knowledge. I've been following this site for a year now and you always provide the best info. Best regards......Tadpole11

Welcome Aboard.

I think I know what your problem is. When you log into the site and enter your user name/password, check off that little box that says 'Remember Me'. That should keep you from getting timed out or punted when you least want it. This is a common issue that many folks have endured until that was brought to their attention.

BTW, Thank you for your service!

Thanks Larry, glad to be here. I have a buddy who lives on Kent Island that I haven't seen in awhile. When the tourists go away, maybe we could meet up over near you for lunch.

Thanks Allan, for the advice and your kind words. Serving was an honor and made me a better man than I would've been.

Thanks Dave. You live in a beautiful area. One of my daughter's ex-boyfriends lives there. He has a beautiful place with a large pond and a great pool. I wish she had married him, I'd be fishin' every day:>)

Sounds like a plan

Thanks for the kind words. One of the things I do if I'm composing a lengthy post is to write the post in MSWord first, then copy/paste into the forum. That way if you do have a problem, you haven't lost all your work.

Also, consider attending our All-GM show in Rockville, MD on Aug 9. More info is available here.
