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 !

Don't feel sorry for the ranger, he is getting what he wants. And they are not 38s, sorry only 36s! And the mini cam is for his son. Trust me, I have another camera I got off of Newport to save the memory!!

Have another 30 pack coors lite on it's way, in hopes marlboro surprizes me with the beer glasses.

Can't post a review unless I've fully tested the product Cheers
Of course you can't. Once you've recovered from fully testing the product, then give us your review. Smilie

Someone posted the other day that they talked to Marlboro & were told that the netbooks are on back order, and to expect the full 12-14 weeks before shipping. Frown
Sure hope, for those of you that ordered them, that they ship sooner than that!

Hmm, to be through, might need to pick up a 30 pack of each Miller light, Bud light, Coors light... To many to name, Maybe I should just go to the beer store and test them out there. Big Grin

Quote from 99er :
It is a slow day in a damp little Irish town. The rain is beating down and the streets are deserted. Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit. On this particular day a rich German tourist is driving through the town, stops at the local hotel and lays a €100 note on the desk, telling the hotel owner he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night. The owner gives him some keys and, as soon as the visitor has walked upstairs, the hotelier grabs the €100 note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher. The butcher takes the €100 note and runs down the street to repay his debt to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the €100 note and heads off to pay his bill at the supplier of feed and fuel. The guy at the Farmers' Co-op takes the €100 note and runs to pay his drinks bill at the pub. The publican slips the money along to the local prostitute drinking at the bar, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer him "services" on credit. The hooker then rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill to the hotel owner with the €100 note. The hotel proprietor then places the €100 note back on the counter so the rich traveller will not suspect anything. At that moment the traveller comes down the stairs, picks up the €100 note, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, pockets the money, and leaves town. No one produced anything. No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now out of debt and looking to the future with a lot more optimism. And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how the bailout package works.

one fatal flaw in that analogy... in a bailout we borrow the money (from the chinese, japanese etc) and go HUGELY into debt. yes ppl get a few months work and get paid... but the nation as a whole takes on a massive burden that is not sustainable. eventually somebody has to bite the bullet and pony up some serious money to pay off the debt. no dime store shuffle there... just good old fashioned "you owe me and im collecting".

and how do they pay off the debt? (when and IF they ever start to pay it off that is)... they TAX you heavily on everything you buy, when you die (inheritance) and whenever you sell anything. so in the long run YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY THE DEBT.

bailouts are for economics 101 dropouts like Chris Dodd, Barney Frank and Ben Bernanke. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

PS: look up quantitative easing and tell me where THAT makes sense laugh out loud

Thank you sweets!
I don't fully understand how SD handles the rep thing....sometimes says "spread it around", sometimes says need to wait 24 hours, and sometimes lets you rep away.
Also weird, my rep count is up 4 since last night, but when I look at recent reps in User CP, can only see one since last night? So, don't know who the other 3 came from.


OMG!! Too funny!!
When you post a contest each rep is worth more
