Yup.....I do....but I endeavor to NEVER send financial account numbers through an internet connection.  There's just too many good hackers out there, and I have no interest in providing them with my info.

Credit cards are actually safe for the user, because if there are fraudulent charges against your card. You pay nothing. Its on the company that issues the credit card. I use a credit card all the time for over the internet purchases. Twice in the last 25 years I had two fraudulent charges on my card. The credit card company just cancel's your card number, and they send you a new one. A bank or debit card on the other hand, you may be liable for fraudulent charges. I never use a bank card for anything except withdrawing money from an ATM.

same here. had a problem with bad charges once. called them and they immediately refunded my money and 3 days later i had a new card. banker told me to never pay for something big with a check. a check card is much safer. last
  time i bought a used truck i asked the bank to issue me a bank check and they said they no longer do it. i had to go to the guys bank and make a transfer from my account to the bank and then they gave the seller the money

Will help when I can.  Last few days everything seems to be going wrong.  Dishwasher top rack broke out.  Toilet in MB stopped up, but it wasn't the toilet, was downstream as tub and shower won't work.  I am 3 months out of back surgery and still recovering as my knees are also out making it hard to do PT.  Water to frig icemaker and water dispenser started leaking.  All are minor problems, but I can't physically fix them right now so I've called a plumber and electrician.  They are very busy right now and make take time to fix things.    Also there is a short on a light in my kitchen, not lightbulbs, just not getting power. 

My wife is out of town while all this is happening, she will be home Sunday and she knows how to transfer money using Pay-pal, but she is going to want to get everything fixed first.

I think that donate button is only showing on the default theme. I use a theme with brown background so I don't see the donate button.

Matt did get home last night very late. I'll try to connect with him today on this.

Richard, thanks for the very generous donation. Matt advised me when we spoke earlier today. He has now made the payment that has gotten the certificate thing squared away.

You guys might also enjoy his new site called Lost Places and Legends at: https://www.youtube.com/@lostplacesandlegends

After all these years, this IS my retirement place to kick back and relax. I am grateful for every one of you. We have forged an internet friendship that is unique, based on many common political and shooting interests in the Outdoors. No way I wilfully lose that...

This is my "Bully Pulpit" at times too. Pontificating and story telling. Thanks for listening.

Move on Citizens.  Nothing to see here (hehe).
