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 !

Okay, so I'm really really happy that we don't have to use the official thread for the Snu's Challenge. I went over there to see if anyone else who ordered the netbook on the 16th had received the long-awaited email and found the following post:

"The rules state, winner will recieve(sic) a trip to a ranch somewhere in the US, not the Marlboro ranch. " I mean, really???? So I posted the picture from the website:

and decided that I'd rather stay at the FF than deal with all of that. At least most people here read the rules and have learned not to flaunt the fact that they don't smoke.

I know, I'm being picky and rude, but it's late in the day and I have to have some standards.

Well first off, there is one thing you can't do without iTunes, and that is buy license music from the Apple Store. As long as she gets her music from other sources then she can use other software.
There's something else you can't do, and it's the reason I finally installed iTunes on several of my systems - you can't update an iPad. When you first pull an iPad out of the box, it does nothing, repeat, NOTHING until you connect it to a system with iTunes installed on it.

You could, but I would advise against it. Personally I think it kind of sux0rs, a lot. And there are security issues with it. But if you want Safari then go for it. But don't come crying to me when it causes issues.

Just in case you weren't already notified, I have the iTune problem. Still working on it...

Sometimes we may figure out how to do things, on our own. But we can always use a helping hand. And from where I stand it looks like, MLX. Helps all of us, all the time. In anyway we need, And she is needed, not only by her family. But to all of us out here on The Funny Farm......... Rep her anytime, and everytime you can, I do!!!!!!!!!

Very good, and if you must use an Apple device, there are plenty of third-party software programs that will work with them and avoid using Apple software.

Safari is Apple and it's not a good browser. Use Firefox or Chrome or Opera or one of the browser based on those, but stay away from IE and Safari.
Do you know of something other than iTunes to be able to sync an iPhone4 with computer?

I almost hope they haven't been told. Let them thrash it out over there. nod

I'm going to answer "Where's my netbook?" to every question. And if they're multiple choice answers, I'll click on "Other." My niece gave me my very own retractable navy blue mouse for my netbook and I want to use it. So I'd best get that prize before the Snu's Challenge starts or I'm going to continue to be rude and answer as noted above. Okay, so maybe I do only have three standards, but I'm going to maintain them as along as I can. woot

Oh you aren't the only one. Heck, I'm still waiting on my boots from the summer. I think the Marlboro motto is "Make mvario wait!" At this point I'm hoping to see the netbook and my boots sometime before I die of old age... but I'm not counting on it, I'm having my will updated.
If it makes you feel any better, I haven't gotten my boots yet either -- nor my netbookSadwalk

I won a pair of Carhartt twill work pants in their contest last month....problem is they are MEN'S and I not a man! Big Grin
They are way to big for me. 28 x 30 Relaxed fit, Khaki.
Wanting to know if anyone here is interested in them, before I donate or list them on ebay.
If so, send me a PM.




I have to run a quick errand, but will post a few more that I'm playing when I get back.
Oh man, I love men's Carhartts!! And, 28x30 is my size. Only thing is they're the wrong flavor. I need more pockets, and those pants are more of a 'fancy' Carhartt pant.

Thanks so much for offering those out - I would've but someone else will be able to use them much better than I. Smilie
