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 !

Thanks for posting this. I got one a few minutes ago. I noticed that they're starting a sweepstakes next week -- prizes from Odor's Estate. Please let us know when you post the information for that. Maybe mvario can pick up some dead man's boots, and everyone waiting for a bike could try for one from the estate sale. You never know what you'll find at one of those.

Basically they went out of their way to cripple Starter to the point where it's just one notch above being a demo. The thieves at M$ just want everyone with it to pay to upgrade. The wallpaper thing is just soooo petty.
Soooo petty.... Doesnt that describe Microsoft. They sell you a game for $60 then sell you the rest of it for $4 -$10 for each add-on so that a single game canm end up costing up to $200 or more.And then they end up losing your points and dont know where they put them and wont credit them back to you!! EEK!

You can change the wallpaper, but you have to go into the registry:

I didn't even go to that site until like 9:40, and saw that a bunch of people were complaining that they couldn't get access to the application. Your link got me right in and I got the sample approval. bouncewootbounce

I was tempted to reply to the complaining posts that they should come over to SD for the best information and links, but didn't know if that was legal on another company's facebook page. Confused

I dont enter into the ones from magazines any more because I ended up with subscriptions to 12 different ones including O!!! Wasted a whole bunch of stamps to tell them I dont want their magazines. Although my son now has a 6 year sub to Maxim!!! Big Grin
