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 usually play right after midnight but I was so mad that my sisters cat peed on my chair and I spent 2 hours trying to get the smell out. I just threw it in the garage and went to bed!

That is blazin' speed, ckworship---Are you in the Northern/Central area of VA?? SWVA is lucky to hit 7 or 8 download on 10.0 promised by Embarq or AT&T on DSL--Samknows and FCC currently running tests in this area on ISP quality disclosure--Do you have DSL, ComCast, or cable-provided internet?

So, I have no idea what the numbers mean but mine was:
Download speed - 0.21 Mbps
Upload speed - 0.26
Ping - 120 ms

What does that mean? I'm assuming my numbers are way bad.

Mechanicsville, just north of Richmond. Son is in Harrisonburg at JMU. Didn't grow up here and went to a Big 10 school so don't really have attachments to VA. teams though VCU playing now and they are a hot/cold team but least they got a shot.
VCU looking pretty hot right now!!!!! I'm watching delayed on DVR. My son was at Quantico, now at pentagon. I was out there last year for the Cherry Festival. Really like the area.

Nice area, I grew up outside Chicago so certainly different but 2 hours from DC, 2 from beach and 1 from mountains so can pretty much do it all. My son is majoring poly sci and foreign language, fluent in 5 right now so he will be sticking around the DC, Quantico area as well. DC is beautiful in the spring!!

oh, well cool then. I didn't even lag last week when the older one was home from JMU and had the gamer and him on the xbox live! I have Comcast Cable. Located just north of Richmond in Mechanicsville. My friend just moved and got DSL, had dial up at his house before that in rural area. Sucked going to his house and trying to get online and in this day and age ridiculous.

I threw the cushion from the chair in the garage and stole on off the love seat we have out in the garage! The dog wouldnt let the cat get to the litter box. Dont know why she couldnt pee on my sisters chair. Usually vinegar will take out the scent of urine but it isnt now.
