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 !

Weatherman just said we are getting up to an inch if ice followed by up to 20 inches of white stuff!!! AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Geez, as if the 20" wasn't bad enough....but an inch of ice too....that's downright nasty!

We're supposed to get down to negative single - teens temps tonight, and 3-5". Hopefully no worse than forecast.

I just received my camera Canon SX130IS. here is the bad news. http://www.infosyncworld.com/revi...11371.html
If I want to keep it (which I do), It seems I'll have to spring for the $35.00 accessory kit which includes 3 sets of rechargable AA batteries case and charger.. Seems that all those bells and whistles have a price in terms of max 1/2 hr of use time per session. Not good for general tourist use or sporting events unless you have stock in Energizer.
You dont have rechargeable batteries??? Must not have kids!!! walmart has pretty good deals. Rayovac $10, comes with charger and 2 batteries. I have energizer for about the same

That's very good of you. But the point is that this camera has the worst power usage ratio in the entire history of digital cameras. Just my luck. Vacations become tedious as I'm already power managing for all the other rechargables. The front seat of the car looks like an ad for octopus outlets. remember them? from the old fire prevention contest days. Got to go eat dinner. Back later. Ice storm moving in got to charge up all my home chargables for when the power goes off.

My first digital camera used AA batteries & was a hog! That's when I quit using regular batteries in the electronics & got the rechargeable ones & a charger.

My current digital camera has a rechargeable lithium battery that uses a USB cord so I can just plug it into a wall outlet. Seems much easier to me.

Do they sell thick socks in Florida?
If not, I'll send you some....they're pretty much a winter staple in Colorado. Big Grin

I think they had to breed more cows to cover the orders.

for my fellow green bay packer fans:


CALLING ALL PACKERS FANS



The Greater Green Bay CVB has been challenged by the Pittsburgh CVB to prove we have more fans than they do. We know that Packers Fans are all over the country, and we need your help to reach out to them.



Both CVBs have put together a contest that not only counts the number of fans we have, but there's an awesome prize... (2 Packers tickets for next season's opening game, hotel and dinner). We'll draw a winner after the Super Bowl.



The Packers Nation contest is located at www.greenbay.com. Please share this with all your friends. Help us prove that Packers Fans are the best Super Bowl fans!

Same here. It's so easy to recharge. The Canon I got today I'm gonna try to sell. My hubby work has a bulletin board to sell things. After I sell it I can buy a netbook. Probably hve to add some cash but maybe not too much.
