Default Everyone pick a buddy

I think it would be a smart idea for everyone to pick a buddy to give emergency contact numbers too for times when something happens. Chick is case in point, and I hope it is nothing serious. But some live alone, and if we are the only ones that hear about something, who do we tell to check on that person. No need to give all personal information to evryone, but if one person had info on a relative or friend that could check on someone in person if something happens that would save alot of worrying. My opinion, but I hate to know someone needed help and we couldn't do anything.

Rob, thanks for posting that, I think it's a great idea and was thinking on that same line. It would save the rest of us alot of worry also. Maybe your idea or if there's somewhere when we registered that could contain our contact info, voluntary and to be used in cases like this, visible to Greg, Pappy and the moderators, who could then contact the person or have someone of their choosing do it.

If the PlayMates ever decide to kidnap a guy and keep him as their Plaything I'm sure that you'll be getting a visit from them. You should think about installing perimeter fencing and getting a panic room, what a horrible fate if their plan should succeed.
It certainly would clear up that case of cabin fever you're suffering from.

Cheers Stud,

BDA

Definitely a good idea, since my wife doesn't even know how to turn this thing on. She just don't like computers.

Good idea on the panic room and fencing ! That way when they attack I can turn on the fence and lock the door to the panic room once there inside !

I know we keep in contact with Christina (Gordiesgirl) and Gordan and also BigBill and Sherri so we are covered but there are many on here I am sure who probably does need to share their information with someone on here they trust. OR like was said, maybe it can be fixed where Pappy, Gregory and the mods would be able to contact the person who is in need or missing.
