Just because you are married doesn't mean you can't date!

Necessary evil. Until we get a benefactor that funds the site (probably in exchange for personal services, KG is an attractive guy and enjoys new experiences nudge nudge), the ads pay to keep things running.

What can't you stand less, the ads, or CP going bye-bye without the added revenue?

PS If you use firefox, Im sure there is some sort of add-on you can get to block em

I usually just barely see them out of the corner of my eye. Was one talking about Religion being one of the twelve dimensions or something?

I like this eHarmony one. "Meet other like-minded Christians". I'd be surprised if they could find any Christians who are link-minded for me. Bit of a contradiction since I am now pretty anti-Christian.

I'd be all over the interracial dating network if I wasn't shackled with the yoke of a wife and two small children...

Though the herpes one concerns me.

I bet we get all those religious dating ads because of the insane amount of religious/political debate that goes on here.

I just started getting anti-drug ads popping up. It is a yellow one about being an enabler and how parents are able to help. It is from the US concerned parents org or something like that.

I wonder if all the talk of driving high, smoking pot and such has prompted these ads.

I've actually never noticed them. I'm sure if you cut a cheque though for whatever revenue they bring in, they would happily take them down.
