Expand And guys, just so you know it is safe to do this. Devon is our new web guy. He will be making some updates to the site and be able to troubleshoot faster than any of us ever could. Jordan and I met with him and his web designer yesterday and they are good folk who will do a lot for the site, so consider a request from them like a a request from one of the staff (because, as you can see, he is).

Expand Sure, I’ll try. I generally brush it of as a scare tactic to purchase some anti-virus download. If I had 14 viruses, i don’t think my Ipad would function. Then again, I’m not an expert. Quote

They are not malicious, but if you experience any more pop-ups or redirects let us know and we'll take care of it. Thank you for your input. Best, Devon Mires Quote
