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 !

I'm here in MD. We're having a heat wave compared to NY. Big ole 19 degrees here. We only got about 5 inches of snow. Quick true story. My hubby bought a snowblower that needed some work. He and our neighbor worked on it for several days. He was so happy when it snowed so he could try it out. When he tried to do the driveway, it was sucking in snow instead of blowing it out. They put it together backwards LOL. Lots of cursing going on that day.

UPS just stopped at my house and brought a box that was just the right size for a netbook and I got even more excited when she said wait here theres another package. I wanted to open it right there on the porch. But when she brought the other package it was long and skinny and I realized it was the curtain rods I had ordered. I forgot all about them!! The other package was a pair of really nice fleece sweaters I had bought. At least I can wear them to stay warm, its supposed to snow again this weekend!

perfect gift for those of you that can't win the man-cave. Also made me wonder if Marlboro is waiting to give those special Yeti leather boots to mvario.

I got the kit to turn the tree in the front yard into a scary face and my sister made me take it down. She said it creeped her out too much. Well, I did point the face towards the house. I couldnt see it from inside! LMAO

Are you trying to insert an image? When I went to post this reply, there was a bunch of gobbity-guk in your quote. Part of it was an image link/location....

Is that what you were trying to post? Not sure why there was so much other garbage between the image tags [IMG] [/IMG].
You need to pull the picture up, copy the URL in the address bar, then click on the Insert Image icon on your reply, then paste the pic's URL.

She came and sat beside me wanting me to hold her!!! Big Grin
