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 !

Is that for "Bailey's Irish Cream"?

My son researched beagles for a year when he was 10 and saw the name on a number of breader sites.
He actually tracked down a breader that raised champion beagles and worked and saved up enough money to buy one when he was 11
he said he was gonna name his doe Bagle but when he saw her he said she's Bailey

I got a e-mail Jan. 11 saying my coupons where shipped but i had to give them up when i switched from the bike to the netbook. When I called them for the first time today they said that was from the first order and had been canceled since I called and switched my order to the netbook. I would not get the coupons, which I knew but just wondered why the e-mail. Guess they got ahead of themselves on the first orders and corrected it when you called in an changed it.

They've delayed start work time for ours. Don't know if they ever closed them, but I believe it when they close yours - not used to the nasties!
Missouri is under blizzard warning. Weve had winter weather advissories but not blizzard warnings before!!! They are expecting 20" in just a couple of hours!!! My sister still has to work. No matter how cold it is some people will still walk to the liquore store!!! Most of her bussiness is foot traffic anyway! She got an electric ice scraper but she doesnt have a cigarette lighter in her car so shes going to use a blow dryer. Never saw a car with an electrical outlet in it before!!! Tooo funny. Cigarette smoking while driving is to dangerous but blow drying your hair is safe!!! laugh out loud

I ordered the bike on Dec 2, and never even got as far as label created! But someone who ordered 2 weeks after me got it! Go figure! Oh well, would just take up more room in the garage right now.

To those getting the Leatherman. I've had one on my keys since 2000 and the thing still barely shows any signs of wear. It will last forever.
I agree -- I had one for about 7 years on my keychain before it got stolen from the outside pocket of my checked luggage. It was really useful, and really durable. What really sucked was that it had a lot of sentimental value -- I got it as a present for successfully managing my first show in high school.

The only thing I've seen on a vehicle closest to an outlet is a headbolt heater cord that you plug to an extension cord! Too wierd! How about suggesting to her to put a tarp or something over the windshield and to keep it in place, close it in the front doors of the car. That should help a bunch. Maybe do same for rear window. Metal spatulas work great as scrapers, too. Do you folks have headbolt heaters and studded tires?

Didn't you say your sister has one of the 12V plugs in her car? That's where the electric ice scraper would plug in. Looks just like a cigarette lighter, but no actual lighter, just the "plug in" hole.
