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 !

They have the cows, they just can't find them

Ya in 2003 after 22 years at my job all my girls were married so i quit had to pensions locked in, one that i paid into and other was a benefit and moved to California after almost 6 years there and three of the places i worked at going out of business i said screw this and took my early retirement and moved back home.
I think you made a very wise decision...Are all your daughters well and near where you guys can visit??

After Uncle Sam gave me a tour of SE Asia for my 19th birthday, I kinda drifted from Texas to Florida, SC, NC, and then then back to the mountains of VA/Tenn. I guess something always calls us home...

Seems the simple things in life are the best...Smilie

That's why you're boots are taking so long...they had to round up a bunch of extra cows to have enough leather to make your "size 12 clodhoppers".

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.
Now I thought it was cold here,,,,only 60's all week

Woohoo!! They called off school tomorrow here....due to arctic temps! Alarms are already turned OFF and my girls & I are planning on sleeping in, then having a nice fire all afternoon/evening.
High tomorrow around 5° and low -11°. Thankfully, only 3-5" of snow and NO ice like so many areas are getting.

Gilcher posted a copy of the apology letter he received from Marlboro today, explaining the delay on the bikes, and stating they would ship by June.
People who ordered the bikes are getting this letter, along with their Leatherman multi-tool "thanks for being patient" gift.

Letter from Marlboro along with the Leatherman scissors from the contest. Leatherman is very small, but it works for me! I needed a nice small pair of scissors.
