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 copied The Chicken, The Horse, and The Harley and sent it to my daughter.
She replied, "Are you going to send that in to your forum?"
I replied, "HAhahahah. No, that's where I got it!"
She answered back, "Those people are a bad influence on you."waveWinkwave

Again....you are TOO FUNNY! I am no expert....just learning as I go. Those "old-timer" posters never took the time to warn me about those types of posts, which I would have appreciated.
Didn't want you, a friend, to have to learn "the hard way", and possibly get warned by the mods, or worse, have your account suspended....we need ya' around here!!

Right after posting my reply to you, I noticed a PM EEK! From The Mod EEK! Thankfully, it was not a warning, just a quick message about a post this morning. Gotta watch my step before I get into trouble. It seems I have become addicted to SD and dread the though of having to go through withdrawal!OMG Thanks again for the advice. hug

You are such a sweetheart!! I would do the same thing. I have given away a number of little wins lately to friends here on SD (coupons for free batteries & gift cards to stores not in my area) and one of my daughters' boyfriend got 3 pairs of NBA socks that were too big for either myself or my daughters. Sharing is good!!!!
Sharing and giving is what my life has always been about. Hence my nickname "giveaway Ronnie" from my friends. What good are we if we can't help others.? Oh, and THANK YOU again for my great avatar> You are the sweetheart. Now I know who to call when I get in a bind doing something computer like. By the way, saw where the spreadsheet was hacked and destroyed. Is a new one up yet? Hope the little creep, never wins a thing in their life again...Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Rather than try to find the original post and give credit (can't remember who posted it) I've copied it.

On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, both of whom loved to play together.

One day the two were playing, when the horse fell into a bog and began to sink.

Scared for his life, the horse whinnied for the chicken to go get the farmer for help!

Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving at the farm, he searched and searched for the farmer, but to no avail, for he had gone to town with the only tractor.

Running around, the chicken spied the farmer's new Harley.

Finding the keys in the ignition, the chicken sped off with a length of rope hoping he still had time to save his friend's life.

Back at the bog, the horse was surprised, but happy, to see the chicken arrive on the shiny Harley, and he managed to get a hold of the loop of rope the chicken tossed to him.

After tying the other end to the rear bumper of the farmer's bike, the chicken then drove slowly forward and, with the aid of the powerful bike, rescued the horse!

Happy and proud, the chicken rode the Harley back to the farmhouse, and the farmer was none the wiser when he returned.

The friendship between the two animals was cemented: Best Buddies, Best Pals.

A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon, he too, began to sink and cried out to the horse to save his life!

The horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle.

Looking underneath, he told the chicken to grab his thingy and he would then lift him out of the pit.

The chicken got a good grip, and the horse pulled him up and out, saving his life.

The moral of the story? (yep, you betcha, there is a moral!)



'When You're Hung Like A Horse, You Don't Need A Harley To Pick Up Chicks!

I didn't win...but I just checked my boyfriends e-mail and he won $100 from Marlboro!

Yahoo!

In an hour I'm heading up to the the correction center, about 15 miles from here, to possibly adopt a yellow Labrador Retriever named Wilson. There is a $120 fee from the Humane Society for this to cover veterinary fees and a micro-chip. WOW...that $100 may help us get a new friend. I'm super excited!!!
Congrats to you (and the new family member) (oh and the boyfriend too !) What a great idea for that money.

Thanks to all for the congrats and happy dances..........now just how to get that 100 away from hubby? I'm thinking on it. laugh out loud

You need to check back with us and let us now how it went. When you posted the other day about him, I replied back to you and told you how happy I was. I'll bet he's a wonderful dog.

You're very welcome! That's what happened to me early on too....no warning, but a PM from a mod letting me know about the rules against posting competitor's contests. I was thankful for that PM.....and that it wasn't an "official" warning. I can't imagine not being able to log onto the Funny Farm for my daily fix!!!

Quote from cwhetme :
Never Argue With a Woman

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.
Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?"
"Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, Isn't that obvious?)
"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her.
"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading."
"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."
"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman.
"But I haven't even touched you," says the game warden.
"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."
"Have a nice day ma'am," and he left.
MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.+

Google Chrome used to work, until Marlboro caught on....now it doesn't work on the mobile site.
Firefox 4 works because you can install an add-on called User Agent Switcher, which basically makes the mobile website think you are accessing it using an i-phone instead of an internet browser.
I remember Gary saying that a while back. Maybe I will do it down the road but I will probably forget all this again with my scatter brain. Thanks.
