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 !

Quote from scaaty :
A friend of mine sent this to me, I wanted to share it with my friends here,

Finnegan The Squirrel

The Moral of This Story is the Best Part!!!

Debby Cantlon , who plans to release Finnegan, the young squirrel, back into the wild, bottle-fed the infant squirrel after it was brought to her house.

When Cantlon took in the tiny creature and began caring for him, she found herself with an unlikely nurse's aide: her pregnant Papillion, Mademoiselle Giselle .

Finnegan was resting in a nest in a cage just days before Giselle was due to deliver her puppies.Cantlon and her husband watched as the dog dragged the squirrel's cage twice to her own bedside before she gave birth.

Cantlon was concerned, yet ultimately decided to allow the squirrel out and the inter-species bonding began.

Finnegan rides a puppy mosh pit of sorts, burrowing in for warmth after feeding, eventually working his way beneath his new litter mates.

Two days after giving birth, mama dog Giselle allowed Finnegan to nurse; family photos and a videotape show her encouraging him to suckle alongside her litter of five pups.

Now, Finnegan mostly uses a bottle, but still snuggles with his 'siblings' in a mosh pit of puppies,rolling atop their bodies, and sinking in deeply for a nap.

Finnegan and his new litter mates, five Papillion puppies, get along together as if they were meant to.

Finnegan naps after feeding.

Finnegan makes himself at home with his new litter mates, nuzzling nose-to-nose for a nap after feeding.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all get along

like Finnegan and the gang?

MORAL OF THE STORY : Keep loving everyone, even the squirrelly ones!
Super sweet story & the moral of the story certainly cuts to the chase! Thanks for sharing!!

I got all signed up last night with no problems. I have read (both here & on the contest post) that about half the people registered with no problems, and the other half are having problems with age validation & have to mail in a copy of their driver's license. Wonder why that is? Seems to me there were a number of people that had the same problem registering with Marlboro too.

I have been signed up with them for about 10 years now. Not many contests, but I have gotten a few nice things from them in the past!

Netbook case -

I found a great deal on a nice netbook case with several pockets and an adjustable shoulder strap. OfficeMax sent me a coupon in the mail for $10 off any $20 purchase. I found a Targus CityGear netbook case on the clearance rack marked down to $31 (regularly $43). But it rang up with a 20.00 price, so I only paid $10. This was in their store this morning.

Even if you can't find the same deal, I wanted to let you know that this case seems to be perfect for our Netbooks. The label says that it fits a widescreen netbook, up to 10.2 inches. I can easily fit my Asus slim DVD drive in it, too.

did you test it on this site
my internet provider told me to use it
http://www.speedtest.net/
