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 !

Ya don't know if I will make it to country fest or not my oldest daughter just asked me to watch my to grandaughters this summer during summer break. We will see maybe can work something out for a few days. When does the radio station offer the tickets and how do they do it?
Pretty soon they will send out an e-mail on how to get them. You just give them your address, and they mail them to you! Just try to make it for a couple of the good days! The tickets will be good for all 5 days, and last year they sent a few extras at $25 each to give to others. But if anyone is interested, yhjave them sign up now. Only station I know who gives them to everyone on their mailing list!

There should be a "help" menu on the top bar of the Firefox window.
Click on that, then there should be an "about"

at least, that's how you figure out what version you're using of most other programs
Thanks so much I found it under help. I have version 3.6. Should I install version 4? If something goes wrong, I will not know what to do - not a clue.

Quote from julesp29 :
Here comes the storm. Been high winds all day but the snow just started now. Gonna be wicked out there. The cold wind has froze everything now the ice is gonna be coved with snow. Yikes I'm not driving anywhere for the next couple days.
Do you usually get snow this time of year? we are getting a "dusting".

Mix,
Any chance you could make this into an avatar? Not sure if something could move. I just love Betty Boop. I have this pic in my laundry cubby.

I resized it so it fits within SD's size limits, but I don't have a program that will animate it. There are alot of Betty Boop animated pics on the internet, if you find one that is already animated, you can post it here & I can resize it for you.

I haven't received mine yet either, but seems like I usually get stuff a week to 10 days after others. So, still hopeful mine will come too. I got the usual, thanks for your request, your samples should arrive in 4-6 weeks, which I took as meaning I got it before they ran out.
Oh, that is good news! I thought you said it arrived, and since we are both in Colo, figured I had been to slow. Okay, I'll sit back & be patient now.

Watch!

This one's a little blurry. I'll look around later. Going to run to the store and get some strudels.

Thank you.

I know one thing if I happen to be lucky enough to get the travel win for this week I would be one happy camper thats for sure. Hmmmmmm San Diego for nieces wedding or HAWAII? lol
Maybe we could meet in Hawaii - that's where I would be planning to go. It's been a long cold winter. A beach on Maui with the little umbrella drinks and a pool boy serving them sounds good to me!

I remember one of the worst storms (should have been a warning) the day of my wedding shower in 1975 middle of April people could not even open their doors snow was so high went on for days. all my girlfriends and their boyfriends that had come to pick them up got stranded and my mom and days for about 3 days. Had to have friends on snowmobiles bring in supplies. So to answer your question LOL.

The only storm I remember in April I was on the LIE in NY and it was an ice storm. Went for Easter dinner and came out to that (near LaGuardia Airport). Rear wheel drive. Had a lot of people in the car too and slid all over.

Funny video!!
Good luck with the sitting back & being patient thing.....personally, I find that hard to do, especially when others are getting their stuff way before me!
I didn't say I received the Target bag of goodies, but I did say I received the full-size Tide Stain Release yesterday. That was quite a shock, seeing the big old bottle instead of a teeny sample.
