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 !

Talonts - OkDog - Gilcher - And anyone I may have missed -

I wanted to thank you all very much for your help in getting iTunes off my computer. Still working on the issue - need to try the RevoUninstall yet.

Had a glitch - something I did recently made my audio alerts go away so I did a system restore. Obviously, some of the things I tried from your suggestions were reversed due to the restore. (Issue still existed anyway.) Will try recent suggestions later today. Have to run errands in Anchortown.

Yes, would love to chuck the whole thing down the hill - one problem with that is I'd have to clean up the mess - not worth it in the long run Smilie

Again, thanks ever so much!!

if you are having virus issues one prog to get is malwarebytes then update it and run it in safemode. The free version works well. It has saved many PCs for me

Ordered bike last day of OWTW around 12:05 pm recieved email 1/11/11 gear had shipped allow 7 to 10 days.. Called M 1/21/11 for tracking number, Checked UPS lable has been created 1/10/11 but package not received. Called M again and the cs rep said reason was because they only verified my age on Fri. Told her how could that be if M created label on 1/10 and sent email stating gear shipped. Hung up and called back. The new cs rep reordered the bike and said 12 to 18 weeks. May be son will receive bike by summer. I'm frustrated and disappointed. Good thing is I'm going to Co in July flying SW so won't have to pay shipping.

Ciggy case came USPS too.
I thought they did! I have to watch my mail lady like a hawk. If ups delivers something small they just put it in my mailbox and the mail lady will pick it up and take it away!!! She brings it back the next day but it really freaked me out the first time because she took my new ram cards!!

I thought it was against the rules for UPS to use your mail box. I bought an EVGA graphics card for my new desktop and it was defective, I had to send it back,The new replacement will be delivered tomorrow according to the tracking number. What a PITA.

I stand corrected ! My apologies but I blame the media because they always say Dallas. I just saw I could get two tickets on the 50 yard line for only...........wait for it
$34,000. Wow what a bargain.Wink

Then of course there is airfare, room, food , and drinks.
yeah the media sucks...all throughout the season...they have been saying dallas even when the banner at the bottom of the screen said arlington... I was also thinking about being homeless for a couple of days and renting out my house for some green bay fans...i bet i could make a few grand off of it... i live about 4 miles west of the stadium
