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 !

Thanks, same here! Im glad I could help some people from here get in on some nice shoes. Im glad to spend $20 every 3-5 years on shoes. I have 1 pair of shoes and 1 pair of fur lined boots. Dont really wear shoes that much. Wouldnt mind a good pair of walkers but then I wouldnt have an excusse! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

For anyone playing the camel.com game, I read over all the comments and most of the people that are winning the I-pad do so between 1:00 and 3:00 central time and the money is mostly won between 10:00 and 1:00. There are a lot of unhappy smokers over there and a lot of people writing that marlboro has better contests!! laugh out loud

Drinks, but no drunks is always a good thing!
Hopefully, Marlboro will start shipping 1/12/2011 like they've been telling people they would.

Yikes, thanks for the reminder, knew I was forgetting something today. Thanks to all you good folks I have quite a list bookmarked of contests, but I forgot to bookmark Camel and did not play today. Also, good to know about the winning times. I don't know, feels pretty hopeless to me; however, I did win an ashtray after last contest. They said it was 3rd place, was so surprised to get it, thought it was from marlboro initially. Pretty ashtray.

Just checked out the Camel site, not quite as entertaining as the Marlboro site.

I also see a lot of comments about not receiving prizes from any of camel's contests, past or present. That's why I'm not holding my breath for the $25 gift card I supposedly won (more than once).

Right? Very disappointing, especially after Marlboro. I am supposed to be receiving a $25 check for having done an online survey for Camel and all the questions were about how do they compare to other cigarette websites and contests. I told them they paled in comparison to Marlboro, duh, how can they not know that?

I hope so! Did anyone else make quit smoking a New Year's Resolution? I am trying, and I think I'm already gaining weight! Never fully realized how much of an appetite suppressant tobacco is! Been smoking for 35 years, guess I never stopped long enough to notice, lol.
