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 !

Got the Santa Claw's prize today....a pink waterproof-knobby ball,LOL...
I just didn't understand the purpose of that game.It came in a white padded envelope with $1.73 worth of postage...I think you need a baskeball needle to blow it up.
When I opened the envelope and pulled that out I had to explain what it was LMAO
It took me a couple of minutes to explain I couldn't quit laughing..LMAO If anyone has got their's yet will see what I meanLMAO

we got a blue one, it did say on their FB page that what you picked up is what you got, a lot of knobby ball winners that's for sure,lol

congratz

my son played twice and won each time. once with a small ball, well we received a pink smaller ball. the second time he picked up a bigger ball and he received a large ball at our neighbors address. the small ball was ok, the bigger one had a plug with no hole to fill through with air. I used a hand pump for bicycle. it worked. my son was happy.

by the way I saw the postage, it was worth more in postage than the cost to make the balls. the postage on the big one was $2.84,

Got the same email Friday as well, it came today!!! I am in Arizona.

RAM upgrade installed.

Be careful if you go 64-bit Windows, not sure why I did this but Samsung provides NO 64bit drivers for this system you are at the mercy of the generics and Microsoft. You can't even update the BIOS nor "fix" the brightness keys issue. I may reinstall as a 32bit system.

Spent about 30 minutes trying to figure out why it would not connect to my home 802.11n wireless. Duh. It is ONLY 2.4GHz n, not 5 GHz n, who knew.

No bluetooth.

The 8GB SDHC card "Yes" brand worked fine and also works with ReadyBoost.

Still, gotta love it, the price was right !

Thank you Marlboro!
