It's like OH, OH CLICK HERE FOR A BIG SURPRISE. How the hell do I know what I'm clicking on? Could be something really cool or could be a total waste of time.
Sorry to sound like an old fuddy duddy trying to impose my standards on others. Y'll go do what you want. CLICK THIS. |

This has nothing to do with the song. It's a great song. I love the video. I'm thrilled that you posted the link. That's not the point.
In my opinion it would be a shame if people passed it by because they didn't know what the thread or the link were so they just skipped it. That's all I was saying.
If I'm the only one, so be it. It's a free world and you can post whatever you want with whatever description you want, I really don't care. |

| stevens is a wussy englishman who, due to his religious conversion, supported the islamic death sentence against that author Salmond whatever his name was - that's the only significant thing to remember about cat stevens. |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Gene, nice video...thanks for posting it…
Dave is making a valid point...I have been led to click on highlighted url's in past posts that I did not know what they were and wished later that I had not known at all...some things are not worthwhile to some and so simply by identifying what the link is, it simply lets the others know what they are going to see...better than being surprised with something that could possibly offend someone...this clip is great but others are not necessarily so good... |

One Classic Song by Two Classic Singers
A good sport
How do you...
OK, I Give Up. How Do You . . .
A little good news from Michigan
Well it's like this
Now I know I don't have a life.
One of my favorites
Come to your own conclusions. :rolleyes: |

Location: east coast usa | look everyone its like i told Dave in the PM. I dont like to argue... if i did i'd a stayed married. I thought people enjoyed my posts.. i am sorry if i pissed of anyone... gosh knows it was not my intention. I simply ran across this video and remembered how much i loved it as a teenager and thought it would put a smile on someone elses face. THATS ALL.
Johnny, Gary thanks for the comments and support and especially the link to the intro to peace train...im gonna learn that
i guess its hard to please everybody.... but it worth a try! |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Gallerinski, you're not alone. I don't click on any link that doesn't have a description of some sort from a source that I can reasonably trust.
Nothing to do with possible wasting time.. I do that often. Has to do with don't take candy from strangers, don't tug on superman's cape, don't covet they neighbors wife unless she's really hot and don't ever click on links if you don't know where they go. |

Really Miles I agree with you for the most part when im not sure who sent it., but i dont worry about it when a family member sends me a link, and considering this is an ovation family forum... ill take my chances.. no disrespect! :rolleyes: |

Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast | Lil' hint here. When I place my cursor on a link, Firefox ids the site. I use it quite often. If you have doubts about a site, try Google to get more info.
Not sure about IE, but you can right click the link and go to 'Properties' to determine the sites addy.
Granted, it's not bulletproof. But most of us have been around the web long enough to get a 'feel' for the good, bad and ugly.
BTW, I steer away from many offshore domains... 
Good luck! |

Geneo, don't get your shorts in a bunch. Dave has a valid point. You may think everyone here has nothing but good intentions towards you, but those of us who've been around longer know that is not always the case.
Plus it's simply good board etiquette. Not everyone here is computer savvy enough to have heavy defenses on their internet connection. If they think they're safer here than some other site... well, they're not.
"i dont worry about it when a family member sends me a link, and considering this is an ovation family forum..."
Sorry, have we met? This is NOT a "family forum", it's an Ovation forum. We try to keep it 'family friendly', but there's no morals test to join (that's probably a good thing, some of our best members are... but I digress).
Suffice to say more than one upstanding member here has been royally screwed by people who portray themselves as 'family' then run off with your Adamas. Or your money. Or both.
