This post is using Tapatalk. I'm guessing there will be a footnote on it. I didn't reinstall but I logged out and back in. Strange thing is that I'm seeing ads and I paid a long time ago not to see them anymore. It looks like my account changed. Almost as if I'm no longer able to use my Tapatalk ID and am forced to login using Facebook, Google, etc.

The good news is that it's not a CigarBanter issue.

I do get an "offer" to purchase the VIP plan most of the time when I first pull it up, but I hadn't heard anything about them being bought. Now I'd better make sure not to get logged out.

Indeed. So the bottom line was that there must have been an app update and it required me to logout and back in. In doing so, some of my settings were set back to default.

Today is Friday, Jan. 20, the 20th day of 2023.
There are 345 days left in the year.



Today’s Highlight in History:

In 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt became the first chief executive to be inaugurated on Jan. 20 instead of March 4.

On this date:

In 1801, Secretary of State John Marshall was nominated by President John Adams to be chief justice of the United States.

In 1841, the island of Hong Kong was ceded by China to Great Britain. (It returned to Chinese control in July 1997.)

In 1936, Britain’s King George V died after his physician injected the mortally ill monarch with morphine and cocaine to hasten his death; the king was succeeded by his eldest son, Edward VIII, who abdicated the throne 11 months later to marry American divorcee Wallis Simpson.

In 1961, John F. Kennedy was inaugurated as the 35th President of the United States.

In 1964, Capitol Records released the album “Meet the Beatles!”

In 1981, Iran released 52 Americans it had held hostage for 444 days, minutes after the presidency had passed from Jimmy Carter to Ronald Reagan.

In 1986, the United States observed the first federal holiday in honor of slain civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.

In 2009, Barack Obama was sworn in as the nation’s 44th, as well as first African American, president.

In 2011, federal authorities orchestrated one of the biggest Mafia takedowns in FBI history, charging 127 suspected mobsters and associates in the Northeast with murders, extortion and other crimes spanning decades.

In 2017, Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th president of the United States, pledging emphatically to empower America’s “forgotten men and women.” Protesters registered their rage against the new president in a chaotic confrontation with police just blocks from the inaugural parade.

In 2020, Chinese government experts confirmed human-to-human transmission of the new coronavirus, saying two people caught the virus from family members and that some health workers had tested positive.

Ten years ago: The San Francisco 49ers rebounded from a 17-0 deficit to beat the Atlanta Falcons 28-24 in the NFC championship game. The Baltimore Ravens earned their first Super Bowl appearance in 12 years with a 28-13 victory over the New England Patriots for the AFC championship.


Five years ago: A dispute in Congress over spending and immigration forced scores of federal government agencies and outposts to close their doors; tourists were turned away from sites including the Statue of Liberty and Philadelphia’s Independence Hall. (Congress voted two days later to temporarily pay for resumed operations.)

One year ago: Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned that there would be a “swift, severe” response from the United States and its allies if Russia were to send military forces into Ukraine. As President Joe Biden ended the first year of his presidency, a poll from the Associated Press and the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found a clear majority of Americans for the first time disapproving of his handling of the job amid an unrelenting pandemic and roaring inflation. Meat Loaf, the rock superstar known for his “Bat Out of Hell” album and for such theatrical, dark-hearted anthems as “Paradise By the Dashboard Light” and “Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad,” died at age 74.

Meanwhile, I dropped the younger 2 off at the ice skating rink and have been wandering around Lowe's for the last 40 minutes, killing time until I have to pick them up.

Did get a new exhaust fan/light combo for the main bathroom and an improved outlet for the kitchen. I'm calling that being productive.

We got killed. I think it was 36-21. Mostly because we kept turning the ball over. One son hurt his knee and had to be taken out and the other one fouled out. They were playing like absolute shit.
