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 for the update. Heck, our summer will be 1/3 over by then - bummer!

Wonder if Luchesse will want to participate in one of these contests again...
I think they make a lot of the boots for the visitors to "The Ranch"-- the ones they give to everyone they invite.

Just got off of the phone with them at Luchesse and they told me that they would definitely ship by March 31 2011... They are being handled as the orders were received......not much help but that they are back ordered ......sux for a Christmas present... and no help from Marlboro.........
And I'm just right here in Texas---seems like they would have treated me "special" ( "Well, sure 'nuff padner, for a Texan, we kin rush your'n") jk Smilie)

after my last conversation with them I will NEVER get invited .....probably won let me play any more either.....Grateful none the less, don't misunderstand,...but they should have said that we will get them to you in summer and they will go good with the hiking shorts...whilel riding the bikes.....and smoking my expensive cigs

Ended up with 960 points, 40 short of what I was shooting for, the horseshoes. When the points were awarded for week #10, immediately ordered the canvas cooler, monogrammed glasses and coupons. As with many, was awarded additional points (50) a few days later with the option of cancelling my original order. Promptly called Marlboro and cancelled original order and ordered the horseshoes. Received the horseshoes the 1st week of Jan and today, via UPS, received the canvas cooler. Wondering if the monogrammed glasses are also going to come.
Ooohhhh!!!! Lucky lucky you!!!! nod

I heard they were handmade. i received my boots on Dec. 7. They are really worth waiting for.
All Lucchesse boots are handmade and made in the USA. The boots from Marlboro do not say Lucchesse anywhere on them and they are stamped made in Mexico. So, I'm not sure they are genuine Lucchesse, or they are just allowing Marlboro to use their name or what? Confused

Hi All, This looks to be a Fun contest.

Ford Focus Rally America Sweepstakes

https://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2555303

Can I change my team?

Yes, you can change your team without penalty at any time before the Rally begins on February 4, 2011. After the Rally starts, you can still switch teams, but you will lose all points and any privileges that you've collected thus far. You can gain points back, but you'll have to work extra-hard to catch up.

How do I subscribe to Focus Rally alerts?

Anyone can subscribe to Focus Rally alerts! You can sign up for email and/or SMS alerts (standard text-messaging rates will apply) by clicking "Follow Focus Rally" in the upper right corner of any page.

What can I win?

Participants will have chances to win a brand new 2012 Ford Focus and chances to win trips to participate in one of the Focus Rally challenges.

Actually I got one before for "attacking"Confused Gary......I was wrong and I got pissed, and had apologizedEmbarrassment even before I got the warning. I guess we are ok now, I think so anyway. But WOW , I must have missed your "event" so I am going back to look.

That was too bad, sometimes the mods should leave us to our own devises.
Sorry it happened too.

Facepalm I didn't mean to sound like an idiot. I was just commiting on why it was taking so long for them to fill the orders. I really don't care if they are original. I was really thrilled to be able to receive them. They are a great prize.

You didn't sound like an idiot at all. Sorry if I made you feel that way. I was also stating why it could be taking so long. It may be a 3rd-4th-or 5th-party company actually making the boots. I am happy with the boots too. I wear them every day!

It all began with an iPhone...


March was when my son celebrated his 15th birthday, and I got him an iPhone.
He just loved it. Who wouldn't?
I celebrated my birthday in July, and my wife made me very happy when
she bought me an iPad.
My daughter's birthday was in August so I got her an iPod Touch.
My wife celebrated her birthday in September so I got her an iRon.


Click image for larger version Name: iRon.jpg Views: 78 Size: 23.3 KB ID: 476317


It was around then that the fight started......

What my wife failed to recognize is that the iRon can be integrated into the home network with the iWash, iCook and iClean.

This inevitably activates the iNag reminder service.

I should be out of the hospital by Monday...
