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 never like white chocolate or vanilla because I thought they just forgot to add flavor!!! LMAO
I love French vanilla now but I love almond bark. When we were growing up I used to tease my sister that her birthstone didnt have any color and mine was a pretty light green. I guess the joke was on me with that one!!! Diamonds, as it turns out, are way more expensive that peridots!!! LMAO
That is my birthstone too..peridot bounce

For those of you that don't like the touch panel for mouse control and are using a USB mouse, you'll want to follow these instructions so you don't use the built in mouse pad when you are trying to type.

click Start / click Control Panel
under Hardware and Sound, click View Devices and Printers
right-click the top one that has the picture of your netbook, select 4th option - "Mouse Settings"
A window pops up - select the far right tab that says "ELAN". Half way down is an option that says "Disable when external USB pointing device plug in"

I'm not sure why this wasn't a default setting, but this is the way to do it. I've heard several people who aren't fond of the built in mouse panel. This will turn it off if it detects that you have a USB mouse plugged in.

I'll post this over in the Snus forum, too... maybe I'll get some reps
Cool
I printed it out, thanks!! I am picking up my netbook tomorrow. I will rep ya when I see you elsewhere. I don't like the snus site, so never go there.

Interesting. I got almost the same thing, word-for-word, except the last part about the ashtray, in an email yesterday from Lucchese (and yes, it even was signed from Marlboro, but was definitely an email from Lucchese).

It would be nice if I get the letter and the ashtray, considering how long it's taken to grow these boots.
According to gestation tables you might have quite a wait!!! LMAO
