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 !

John S, of Bradley, who ventured into last week's blizzard with his four-wheel-drive vehicle to rescue stranded motorists, is also conducting a fundraiser for the March of Dimes March for Babies.

S reported Wednesday that he had several collection jugs in businesses in the area and one had been stolen when he went to check on them Tuesday.

S is organizing a 6.2-mile walk for the charity in Bourbonnais on April 17. For more information, phone or visit the website www.marchforbabies.org/Fatdaddy1

Hopefully we can figure out the dvd playing prob. May have to ask some of our tech friends!! I actually saw something like that on a review before I ordered, and it seemed to be an easy fix. Guess I will have to go back and try to find it!! Windows 7 doesn't seem to like to work with a lot of things. I think I like my XP better.
You have to remember, the netbooks are pre-loaded with Windows 7 Starter, which is a very pared down version of Windows 7. I have Windows 7 on both my desktop & my girls' laptop, 64-bit Home edition, and everything works wonderfully.
You will just have to find work-arounds for things like no dvd-playing or upgrade to full-version Windows.

They told me not to remove the bandage til I go back to the hospital (tomorrow) for a wound check. Because I cut into the bone, it is very prone to infection. So, it will probably be a few more days for new pics. They'll probably wrap me back up before I leave. I don't know if I'll be able to take pics whilst there. hehe

the last time my kid got stitches he sat there with his phone and snapped away until the DR figured it out and made him stop
he said if I make a mistake I don't want it on film laugh out loud

Take your antibiotics as prescribed, don't miss any (I'm sure they gave them to you)
And for heavens sake don't use any hammers till it's all healedlaugh out loudlaugh out loudlaugh out loud

Just thought some of us would want to know--this is from the contest before last.

Today from Marlboro:

Thank you for your participation in the Marlboro Country Rewards promotion.
This promotion was very popular and orders for the Resistol Ranch boots by Lucchese exceeded our expectations. Because of this unanticipated demand it will take longer to ship your item than we originally projected. Lucchese is working to get your boots to you as soon as possible; however, due to the hand made nature of the boots, they may not ship until April 20, 2011.
We apologize for the delay and appreciate your patience. Please accept the enclosed ashtray for any inconvenience this delay may have caused. Thanks again for your continued interest and participation in our promotions.
If you have any questions, please call us at.................... etc
