You whine like a mule.

I recognize that code, Jason! At least the base of it (and the
comments). ;-P
As well you should!
See in the first block how you're using $_SESSION? That's why
you're able to read it later.... because you have two return $xxx
lines in each function.
As soon as a function reaches a `return` statement, it returns
that data and exits, so the second `return` is never processed.
so the "return $table;" line doesn't ever get processed?
Is there anyway to make it get processed? :) I'm attempting to rewrite
code so I don't HAVE to use session variables... Hoping I can make it
work :)

You could return an array with string keys.
$array['table'] = 'asdf';
$array['authenticated'] = false;
return $array;
That's just one option, but it would work.
