    LOL floppers, you're hilarious! In a nearby neighborhood they have a street called 'Stoner Dr', well you KNOW that sign was stolen so often that now the sign reads "ST N R Dr", no kidding. Ever since it hasn't been stolen.

    "My wife and I actually enjoy the ads for clothing here. Interesting designs. I would miss those going ad free." Naboka I saw some pretty maxi dresses, so I had clicked on the ad and went to the site. I liked the variety & wanted to know from where the company was headquartered. Well it took some digging as it wasn't obvious. Well turns out, Hong Kong. I was NOT going to buy dresses from Hong Kong. No wonder they were so cute. I quickly came back to play more games. I don't need the dresses that badly. "212 films in a years is quite a lot." Yes, it so far is a record that hasn't been broken. I got close a couple times in the 180's, but nope, that's my record that's held for a long time now.

    "Or if your instruments are trumpets, coronets, and trombones, how about "The Brass Hats"? If string, "Frogs And Hairs" BWT1213 I like both. And the least amount of films I have seen in a year was ... I think ... 30. I can watch 2 or 3 films easily in a week. BTW, now I'm up to 79. I like all kinds of films - drama, sci-fi, comedy, documentaries ... yet my fav so far, independents.

    "I bought a steel tongue drum (not to be played with your tongue, but named for the construction) and a djembe. I've actually started studying music therapy this year, so my collection of instruments is rather eclectic and not really what you'd expect in a band." Crazykate this reminds me of a PBS Documentary called 'Craft In America' one of the episodes centered on the way instruments are made: https://www.pbs.org/craft-in-america/tv-series/music/ I thought it was fascinating. The Tongue drum made me think of it (they explain drums around 38 minute mark).

    ok, now they are all looking at me like I'm the crazy one, for laughing out loud...and all I said so them was..."This is not Ballachulish ferry". You should very much steal that sign. We have one locally, that was often stolen, "Bogan Court", It's signpost is now 10m high.

    My neighbour is having an ELO phase.

    I did in fact order some instruments online, but they're not really orchestra instruments. I bought a steel tongue drum (not to be played with your tongue, but named for the construction) and a djembe. I've actually started studying music therapy this year, so my collection of instruments is rather eclectic and not really what you'd expect in a band.
    I've also got a band name lined up if I ever end up starting a folk band, "This is not Ballachulish ferry".
    That's my favourite Scottish road sign that my father found in the 1970s.

    How about "The Kateamundis"? Or if your instruments are trumpets, coronets, and trombones, how about "The Brass Hats"? If string, "Frogs And Hairs"? And if woodwinds, "The Reeders"? (Apologies to those who liked "The Reivers".)

    "Wedding Day." Don't know if the names been taken for a band, but an ad just popped up titled "Wedding Photos gone wrong."

    The six individuals pictured have their outfits painted on their bodies. Seems they have underwear for some modesty at the lowers, though the men obviously are unprotected on their upper sails and the women might be exposed to the weather up there themselves.

    Lol... I don't envy boyfriend no. 4, but the way you describe his ailments is too funny!

    I hope you're right about the Swarovski crystals. Have you shown the ads to your significant other?

    I don't even know what some of the ads I'm seeing are advertising, because for whatever reason I'm getting ads in Polish or Czech these days. Must be the geographical proximity. The ads that I do understand are mostly for things I've already bought, including musical instruments. I guess they hope I'll start a band.

    My wife and I actually enjoy the ads for clothing here. Interesting designs. I would miss those going ad free.

    The ad for liver disfunction, featuring a cartoonishly obese man with internal organs exposed through a gapping incision is a bit off putting. Makes you wonder not only why he let himself go like that, but also how he was able to stand the pain modeling for the ad. (But, yes, he is only a cartoon. But, don't our cartoons deserve respect too?)

    so far, I've seen advertisements for coding, beach dresses, and wrinkles (which I am trying to not take too personally), so...touche!...I feel like you've nailed it (which means I should expect hardware advertisements?). xx. Thank you!

    Definitely please email me at admin@puzzlebaron.com anytime you see an inappropriate ad on any of our sites. We do not get to individually approve each ad that gets displayed, instead we have to rely on our ad providers to properly categorize items according to the age-appropriate levels we've indicated. On occasion, some ads are not categorized appropriately, or at least the way I personally would have liked them to be categorized. So we can only catch and remove them if and when people report those ads to us.

    Thanks!

    The risque ads have been troublesome for quite awhile. I finally paid the fee to get rid of all ads, they were so bad. Not to be snarky, but they were so persistent, I thought maybe that was the point. I'm glad to see I was wrong.

    The government always owes me a little bit, not enough for me to worry about losing interest (because I would probably spend it straight away anyway), but enough for it to count as nice little bit of extra to spend over the Christmas/Summer holidays.. maybe a lil holiday, some nights out on the town, something something... there is method in my procrastination...
