Frequently Asked Questions About the Fence Post

Well, not really frequently, or even really asked; I just thought I might pre-empt any questions.

Is this really free?
Yes. Unless you stole your neighbor's computer and are currently pirating his DSL. In that case, it is not only not free, you are officially disqualified from the cookie offer.

If I put my name on here, will I get my identity stolen and my credit ruined by unscrupulous web criminals?
No. But to be sure, avoid posting your address, SS#, military ID#, phone number, or any other details that might make you a "mark"(a little cyber criminal lingo I picked up on Dateline).

Can anyone join the Cummings' Family Fence Post?
No. We are an exclusive club formed solely by those who have the good fortune of being born into, or married into, the Cummings Family. Wannabes can wistfully comment, but only a true family member can post. (I'm sorry, I was kind of a nerd in high school and I always wanted to be in a clique. Lesson One is that cliques have to be brutal for street credit.)

I'm a family member, how can I join?
Send an e-mail to ericswifeAThotmailDOTcom with the e-mail address that you regularly use. You will be sent an invite to be an author on this blog.

I'm not very interesting and I don't think I have anything to offer. What would I write about?
Don't worry! I'm not the kind of girl to invite you to a party and not tell you what to wear. Check in ever so often and I will post topics and such to keep the ball rolling. And besides that, if CBS's Sunday morning news program has taught us anything, it's that everybody has a story.

What's a "Saturday Roll Call"?
Every Saturday a question will be posed and all family members are encouraged to post a response in an effort to get us all better involved with each other.

Do you really intend to make cookies for all family members who take part in the blog and attend the reunion?
Yes. But you will have to share. I'm no Martha Stewart.
