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 !

I think "Lit up" was my mistake at the time when I agreed to the red & white mixture thing

ty thumbs up

Hi Gary....wanted to know if you have the Marlboro specs (or a pix of the actual page) for the bike?
I thought the site stated it had "dual water bottle holders" and....other options that made it "special".....

The only person who actually got their bike (lucky!!) posted pictures of it but it didn't look as though it had the bottle holders?!?!

Just hoping you (or someone you know) made a copy of the bike's descriptionbounce

Thanks in advance!!hug

Recieved in todays mail the Leatherman Micra tool that was one of the middle range nicer prizes in OWTW-4. Along with the tool was a nice letter saying much of what we already know: The bikes were very popular, they are having difficlty shipping the quabtity ordered in the time frame they originally anticipated. The bikes are now scheduled to ship on or before June.

I also want to add the following info I gleame from Marlboro Consumer Affairs:

Everyone who ordered a bike and whose bike has been delayed will receive a Leatherman Micra and the letter explaining the delay in the bikes. The shipment of the Micras is being spread over some time frame, and may take a number of weeks for all to be shipped.

All of the bikes are anticipated to by the end of June, some , in fact many, may well be shipped much earlier than June.

The Leatherman Micra is a very cool and useful "mans" tool....it isn't a "toy" like the mini Swiss Army knives.

bounce Got my netbook today!!!!
I have a question for the techies... I was getting ready to order the 2g RAM, but noticed there are a few 4g ones out there. Here's one:

Patriot Signature 4GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model PSD34G10662S

The descriptions looks exactly like this 2g (except the model #)

Crucial 2GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model CT25664BC1067

So, can I put the 4g in the netbook? Thanks

Hey
Been enjoying this nice 68 degree weather we have had for , now makes 2 days , before another front comes back in later this week. It has been real cold for us
and icy a lot for Central Ga. .. I thought I had seen where you were from there, Had real good friends ( internet ) for about 8 or 9 years in Elyria area, (Amherst actually) havent talkd to them in a while tho ( layoffs and no internet),
Take care and we like the snow , just not the ice. I am about 85 miles south of ATL, and when we get anything here , these folks go nuts, just no equipment to handle snow..... and then ice , really sux

If you'll notice on the upright bar below the seat and the forward slanting bar there's a couple shiny little mounts. I think that's what mounts, Ya have to buy your own bottles which would have been a much better waiting gift than a leatherman keychain I think.

I like the snow , and I enjoy it when we get to be around it , but it is not, or should not be considered a "lifestyle".....Pretty and all that S@#$, but still, I m just sayin......not all the time
I like when we get about half a foot anf everything closes and I get to watch the news of the idiots trying to drive and get around in their redneck machines, , a little deep for some of the 4 wheelers and definitely for a lot of the cars, Thanks but yall can keep it, and I just enjoy when we are blessed......the sun shines here more than there , tho, and then in the summer , HOT !!!!!, Pool comes in real handy......then
Have a great one and .....be prepared ( yes I was a Boy Scout )
