RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Think you are going to add money to make it better? I think they assemble it for us. Is that your understanding? I did not see if there is shipping on top of the cost of the bike. Maybe too early to think ahead.
I have not looked into it at all yet.

We're going with the single speed..... shipping on the site starts @ $60 I don't know if shipping is included with the win or not.... don't even really know if the win could be used for any bike on the site or just what Wonka says,, won't know for sure 'till we get email Shipped bikes are 90% assembled, much the same as The Marlboro bikes. Pedals, handle bars , maybe a few other things will have to be put on

Mail brought 2 brewers beer glasses which are really nice. I think it was a freebie.

From staying up doing the milk mustache sweeps, i keep making coffee so many times during the night to stay awake. Now my Keurig is not warming the water enough and it "spit" the grinds out once Big Grin ZzZZz anyways, just checked their rules - it ends Tuesday morning around 9am Eastern I think. Still no winning posts on their site.

I thought a few days ago I had fleas. But washed the dogs with flea baths, put new flea drops on them early and no one has been scratching whatsoever. I am the only one with bites all over my legs and they are about the size of a pea. My neighbor said there are no-see bugs that bite a lot. I do not think these are flea bites and they are not biting sam. Driving me nuts.
If they are not flea bites there is a chance they could be chiggers. http://www.medicinenet.com/sympto...rticle.htm I have had them before and they are very itchy. The more you itch the worst they get. I think if you itch them they get up and move to another spot and so on. There is some stuff you can get a the CVS or I have used clear nail polish. I think the nail polish kind of glues them in place and they get suffocate and die (I am not a doctor but it worked for me) Anyway good luck and check out the article above. Cheers

It was a file upload to their website. After you selected your picture it uploaded it right away. They have no way to look at anything on your PC except what you picked & sent.
I think I've got a handle on it now. It's like posting a pic in here, When yer building the post a pic is just the name until ya hit submit, Then it turns into a pic in the post Embarrassment

if you treated the dogs then you are their next target.. they do not always bite every household member and not each household member will be sensitive to the bite.. maybe they do not like Sams blood.. put a shallow pan of water on the floor.. place a candle in the cent of the pan.. see what ya catch.. if it is fleas.. the candle light will attract them and the water will prevent their escape..
Going to do that now.thanks

They do not look like that. These are bites about the size of a pea.

Does the single speed have hand brakes or foot brakes or both?

I don't know, they have a cable that you can pick color for, so it may have a front hand brake and rear coaster brake. You'd have to go to the site and look at the specs for the bikes

Good Afternoon FF World,

First of all would like to thank everybody for all the new links and congratulations to all of the recent winners. I love reading about all of the wins on the FF. I spend at least 3 hours a day entering sweeps and contest and It makes it all worth while. I try to do my best keeping up with the thread but my time is so limited lately. Good luck to everybody and keep the wins coming.




I have seen that double plug used in airplanes as the headset plug in port. The cheap earphones they sell on the plane have that plug on the end.



Congrats nice win.



One more nice



They are staring to add up.



Marlboro wins are always nice. I just got my only win from there last contest, a knit beanie.



Congrats to your daughter.



Visa gift card for any amount is real nice. The $500 are the best.



It is always nice when a company comes through for you.



Thanks, they have some very nice power tools. I use there tools on a wooden kayak that i am building.



Nice I smell some popcorn cooking.



Unexpected wins are always the best. Cheers.



You can never get enough free movie tickets.

Like I said earlier I love to read about all the wins. I myself have been fairly lucky the last month. No great big wins but a boat load of small ones. You can add my name to the list of Freeride bike winners. I got one and my wife got one. That is 2 more added to the list of FF bike winners.
Keep the wins coming, good luck to everybody and Cheers.
Congrats Smilie

No fleas in the water. I am wondering if Sam got some bug in his truck while at the house upstate while he loaded it. Also, with my allergies, maybe it is an internal thing? i kinda doubt it tho. But I have been in his truck daily since he is home so going to spray the flea stuff tomorrow in his truck as well as mine.
