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 !

That's good to hear -- its a shame they didn't get him yesterday. If they had, they could have charged him for DUI if he had been intoxicated at the time. Unfortunately, a hit-and-run is probably not going to get him in big trouble.

A DUI would have helped, but H&R is already a felony, and since there were injuries, the time could get serious.

Jules - keep on the prosecutor, don't let them deal it down to no time served.

If you print a lot, it's worth watching/waiting for a good deal on a laser printer. I got the Brother HL-2170W through a deal here from Staples, for $52 AR. It ends up costing a LOT less than inkjet per page, and the toner cartridges last longer (especially if you refill them a couple of times before replacing them).

I keep a separate inkjet in case I ever need photo quality color, and laser for bulk B&W printing. It saves a ton over constantly replacing inkjet cartridges.
I was just checking out how easy it is to refill the cartridges in the lexmark. I have one and it always says the ink is out. I can refill one cartridge about 5 times before I have to buy a new one. I do print alot and so does my cat. At least hers are mostly blank pages from stepping on the buttons. Thanks for the advice!

Actually, trichinosis in US pork is almost non-existent at this point. It was a big problem in the 60's and 70's, but eradication efforts have been very, very successful. Nowadays, you don't need to cook pork until its dried out -- its safe to have it just this side of well done, and several restaurants serve it this way now.

The really scary one for me is chicken -- the last stat I heard was that something like 75% of cut pieces have some level of salmonella contamination on the surface. Luckily, salmonella dies at a low temperature, but chicken should still be cooked to a pretty high internal temp.
My sister makes me cook it until its crispy

TYVM! Ya it is weird how they caught him. I guess last night a young cop was called to a motel for a disturbance. He noticed a trunk with front and wheel damage to it in the parking lot of the motel. Never paid much attention to it. Then this morning when they had their morning meeting their Captain mentioned the hit and run. The young cop told him about the truck he had saw. They went and questioned him and he confessed to it all. Don't know anymore then that right now if he was drunk, no lisence!!!!! They just called my daughter and told her that much.

My new HP C7280 All-IN-One stopped printing Black ink after the first cartridge.
I used a needle to clean out the hole where the ink goes into the printer from the cartridge. I guess I pushed the needle in a bit to far and punched a hole in the hose that goes to the ink pump. had 20cc of black ink everywhere, The black ink started to work again. I ended up gutting the printer to the frame and fixed the hose.
