Hi Everyone! I've been away for awhile. What's been going on?
Thought maybe things would settle down a bit while I was gone but I guess not, lol. I do see a few people got the granite cookie; any details (probably via PM is best) are appreciated.

Anyway - good to be back here among friends. :grouphug:

Doing a lot of reading on the forums, reactionary posts are the rage. ;-)

3. I just took five people off my Ignore List
They've all been banned.

Another dozen or so would be a good start.

4. That's good news.
The process does take awhile; I'm happy to hear the baddies are getting banned. :hi:

9. The funny thing about my ignore list?
About 1/3 of them have gotten the ban hammer. I guess I ignored them for the right reasons.

11. Cliffordu made bail

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/0922dnbusfraud.1a0762549.html


A man has been arrested and charged with identity theft and bank fraud. Clifford W. Robertson was arrested Friday by Federal Bureau of Investigation agents and will have an initial hearing on Wednesday to face the charges.

U.S. Attorney John Bales of the Eastern District of Texas said in a statement that Robertson, 43, used a fake identity to gain financing from a bank to fund his operations doing business as The Champions Group of Plano.

Robertson has previously hosted a radio talk show on CNN 1190 discussing real estate investment strategies and recruiting investors who bought properties and who complained to regulators about Robertson.

An attempt to reach Robertson wasn’t immediately successful, and a message to the public defender assigned Robertson wasn’t immediately returned. A call to CNN 1190 wasn’t returned.

13. I switched identities with Grantcart's mom - she's trying to make bail even as we speak...
Edited on Wed Jan-13-10 07:19 PM by cliffordu
They had me detained as a 'person of some interest' at first, but it was a case of mistaken identity....I understand she RUNS D block already....

:rofl:
