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 !

Hot off the line with Marlboro Consumer Affairs:

1) The free bonus gift of a dome metal ashtray (the ones already shipped have a Texas Star pattern opening/lid) are now BACKORDERED.

Those expecting Bikes, most are being made ready for shipment, and are not yet shipped. There is at this time no backorder problem with the bikes.

(a little birdie did explain to me that the most likely situation was that Marlboro received the massive bike order in "bulk" and the Marlboro fulfillment dept are having to gather parts from various bins to result in a full bike....as an example we were told the "seat" was to be a large one and not the standard one...if that is true then those seats would have been delivered in a separate shipment to Marlboro, same thing may well be true of other items that were ordered like the dual water holder, etc.)

The only way to know for sure about the bikes is for one of the first people receiving the bikes to take a few pictures and show us what Marlboro delivered.

PS: today's my birthday! I made it through another year. Last night I got an eight inch prize for my birthday!

Eight inches of snow from Mother Nature...

PPS: Roddy, my cowboy partner in OWTW4 is today on horseback with an Axe breaking open frozen water troughs for the cattle. His 4x4 pickup would not make it through the drifted snow. It's about 16 degrees outside right now. Thse pretty cowboy pictures from Marlboro are real nice but not always accurate...especially in the winter!

Is the cig case the last thing you're waiting for? Did you get a shipping notice yet?

How do you like the cooler?
