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 !

Any of you who get in below freezing temps ought to think about getting headbolt heaters for you vehicle. Sure makes it warm up faster!

I got my sweet little NetBook today! The Office package is not a trial - it is the Student version (no Outlook, but you get Word, Excel, etc).

I got it connected to the wireless internet without any problems. I tested the 8 GIG SD card in my desktop - works fine. The netbook wants to reformat it, but I'm not doing it. I'm wondering if there is a limitation with the Window 7 Starter. I plan to upgrade that. <-- EDIT I just found there really isn't any reason to upgrade!

It is a 64-bit processor, but it looks like it is Windows 7 32-bit (which is okay with me).

I haven't tested the video camera yet, but that will be nice to have.

Marlboro rocks!

I was pretty surprised to get the automated call from the school district this evening. There have been days where it was much colder than it's supposed to get overnight tonight, and school wasn't cancelled. Decided to just go with it, and not look a gift horse in the mouth! laugh out loud Yeah, get to sleep in!!!!!
I think it was my son that told me that the school called everyone at 3:00am so the next school day one of the parents had a robo wakeup call company call them at 3:00 am with a whole bunch of calls to say thank you for keeping them up dated on the school closings and if they didnt want to be called at 3:00 am with a thank you call again to make sure not to call at that time again!! LMAOLMAO

Well, aren't you special Smilie !! I have remote start and consider that a great bonus over NOT having it!
Got a new car back in 2007 (only my 2nd new car ever) and it came with remote start & heated front seats....my girls call them "bun warmers". Sure do come in handy on those mornings where it's negative temps early in the morning when I take them to school.
Heck, until this car, never had one with keyless entry, or power windows.....so I felt quite special....still do! LMAO
