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 woke up, so decided to try the IWGs late at night to see if my luck is any better. NOT! I can't even win the Stouffers. Oh well, maybe tomorrow!

Yes, got it today! I'm kinda wishing I would have ordered more than one. There are no instructions or owners info included in the package, but no big deal. The website listed on the label doesn't exist (?!!!), but I think I can figure out how to plug it in. That's kinda weird, but it was a great deal on a nice powered hub.

What version of IE do you have installed? Are you possibly using "Compatibility View"? If so, maybe try turning it off for this particular website.

my sis sent this lol :
CURTAIN RODS-- PRICELESS

On the first day, she sadly packed her belongings into boxes, crates and suitcases.

On the second day, she had the movers come and collect her things.

On the third day, she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining-room table,by candle-light; she put on some soft background music, and feasted on a pound of shrimp, a jar of caviar, and a bottle of spring-water.

When she'd finished, she went into each and every room and deposited a few half-eaten shrimps dipped in caviar into the hollow centre of the curtain rods..

She then cleaned up the kitchen and left.

On the fourth day, the husband came back with his new girlfriend, and at first all was bliss.

Then, slowly, the house began to smell.

They tried everything; cleaning, mopping, and airing-out the place.Vents were checked for dead rodents, and carpets were steam cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters, during which time the two had to move out for a few days, and in the end they even paid to replace the expensive wool carpeting. Nothing worked!

People stopped coming over to visit. Repairmen refused to work in the house. The maid quit.

Finally, they couldn't take the stench any longer, and decided they had to move, but a month later - even though they'd cut their price in half - they couldn't find a buyer for such a stinky house.

Word got out, and eventually even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally, unable to wait any longer for a purchaser, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place.

Then the ex-wife called the man and asked how things were going. He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely and said that she missed her old home terribly and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for having the house.

Knowing she could have no idea how bad the smell really was,he agreed on a price that was only 1/10 th of what the house had been worth ... but only if she would sign the papers that very day. She agreed, and within two hours his lawyers delivered the completed paperwork.

A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home ........
and to spite the ex-wife, they even took the curtain rods!
I LOVE A HAPPY ENDING, DON'T YOU?

Thank you so much for your offer! I think I had seen that same sale and was considering going that direction. I have a Best Buy gift card and figured I'd use it for that. Since they don't even have DDR3 there (and online said they wouldn't ship to store), I was going elsewhere. Should've gone with my gut! Anyway, earlier this evening was on Amazon and they had one and no shipping charge.

It really means a lot to me that you'd be willing to send the unit my way! Thanks so much!!

Most definitely, you all are a very special group here!! I wish I could bring you all up here so I could hug every last one of you in person!!!!!
You almost brought tears to my eyes SmilieSmilieSmilie

It gets even stranger. I tried to reinstall IE 8 that I had saved on my hard drive and it said my operating system (which is Windows 7) was not supported.EEK! So, I went to Microsoft downloads to download IE 8 there,and there was NO download for IE 8 for Windows 7 Operating system.EEK!
So, anyway I downloaded the sucky IE 9 and now have access to Shopyourwayrewards, but I totally HATE IE 9.Frown
