Could y’all put some kind of breathalyzer button on the board? So that on the _rare_ occasions that I over imbibe I could just read where and how I must have “showed” my ass? It takes so long to skim each forum and thread to find where I’ve strewn my…wisdom.  
That is all.

This button (er, link) is available on your profile, for anyone who might be looking for it and can’t find it.

You can also do an advanced search on your own name, although the search engine here is known to be a bit wonky at times.

Becky,

Go to your control panel, Edit Options.

Go to section Default Thread Subscription Mode.

You can set it to automatically subscribe to any threads you post in. Then, later, you can look at your list of subscribed threads to see your own activity.
