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 !

Rule #1
Send us your answer by the posted electronic form, or by email. Include your complete mailing address with U.S. zip code or country postal code. Rule #2
To win, your answer must be spelled correctly. Rule #3
Only one answer per person, family, company or email address per day. Only one win per person, family, company or email address per calendar month. Rule #4
First correct answer received is the winner. We use embedded email times when we received mulitple correct answers. Rule #5
Contest winner will be notified via email, and the prize mailed to the winner's address. Only the winner will be notified. Your email address and mailing address will not be used for any other purpose. Rule #6
After the posting of four (4) consecutive clues, and no correct answer is received, that quiz will be ended (with no winner) and a new quiz will then be posted.

Please Note: On some days (due to our map business travel schedule) we are unable to monitor the Quiz answers as they arrive on our email server. While traveling, when the first opportunity for internet access presents itself, we check those answers and then post the winner's name from the (first correct answer) received. We apologize, but that occasional posting delay is unavoidable.



Follow the daily Geography Quiz on Facebook.com or Twitter.com and receive an extra hint when a new quiz is posted.

Here you can win $100 cash for the First Correct Answer to our Free Online Geography Quiz Contest! Be clever and be quick, as you can win the money for being the best geography student in your class, the most informed employee in your office, or the smartest member of your family!

Worldatlas.com has been awarding $100 cash prizes for correct answers to our geography trivia contest for years. Hundreds of lucky geography quiz winners have enjoyed our free online contest and we'd love to add you to that special list.

On the first day of a new geography quiz we post two clues. We then add a new one each day until someone wins the $100 cash for the first right answer. Follow the geography contest rules and send us your submission as soon as you think you know the answer. Good Luck!

If no one sends us the correct quiz answer within four posted clues (which seldom happens), we start a new quiz the next day, offering you another chance to win $100. So, have fun, and be informed with Worldatlas.com.

If you have elderly parents on Medical insurance keep on track for them. I was constantly calling medicare and their supplement insurance because they messed up alot and I caught it. Do this for your parents if you can. They mess up a ton!!!!!!!!

Clear Recent History is sort of the same thing, only on-demand instead of automatically at shut-down. It allows you which items you wish to clear, you don't have to clear everything, for example you can just clear the cache.
IMPORTANT - I called Samsung as you asked. But I first wanted to insert my SD card so I sounded a little bit what I was talking about. This is what happened and I explained to the rep as it occurred. With the netbook off, I inserted the card, When it booted, it showed my C, D and F drives, recognizing there was a F card (drive). It then said, format it. I clicked on format and it said windows cannot format - Am I certain that this is not a read only disk (I think that is what it said). Told him. He had me check that the little white slide on the side of the card was not locked; it was not. I then reinserted it while the netbook was on and when I clicked on the F drive, it said to insert it (it WAS in there). So it reacted differently if the card was already inserted before I turned it on and when I inserted it. Said it has nothing to do with BIOS. He sent a priority message to their team and will email me at my AOL email. Said it will take a few days perhaps. BUT, when I get it on AOL, I know how to copy and paste within AOL, but how do I get it over to my Firefox screen if it is important for everyone to see? If it is just instructions, I can write it down and then type it on SD, but if it is a patch, what will I do. Is this what is happening to everyone with the netbook? Do other cards work (is it just this card)?

Get an Eastwing, they are the best. Hope I spelled that right. Just don't go to the hardware store and ask for an East Wing, it is pronounced estwing. LOL Eastwing straight claw, best hammer I ever owned.
One of the only times I've bartered at my family's hotel is when I traded a roofer who was leaving the business a night's rent for 3 different Estwing hammers -- it was a great deal on my end, and he got more out of them than a pawn shop would have given him. Those are great hammers, but people always try to steal them...

It's at WalMart just under $28.00 with the free compact optical mouse. Has three compartments counting the won for the netbook. Just dont see storing the plugs in there but if you are traveling throw them in your suitcase if you will think you need to recharge battery. I love it!!!

Thank you. I'll check it out. I do have a mouse but a compact one would be nice for traveling. Also, my husband won some Sony headphones from Marlboro last year, which I mentioned last night in the Snus forum. They are really good quality (i had to sign for them). Today I hooked them up to the netbook and the sound was so much better. I couldn't believe it. So far I haven't had trouble with speed but I will be ordering the 2GB memory.
