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 dont know what to make of this. I was about to delete it as a fraud but after reading it I did sign up for something like this. I said I wanted to buy abandoned and foreclosed houses as cheap as I could and fix them up and resell them to those who cant get a regular home loan. Kinda like Habitat for Humanities where the people have to prove they will be responsible by putting in so many hours of work fixing up other homes in order to buy one for themselves!!! I cant remember if this was the organization I applied to or not!!

A middle-aged woman (cwhetmehug) seemed sheepish as she visited her gynecologist.


"Come now," coaxed the doctor, "you've been seeing me for years. There's nothing you can't tell m e. "

"This one's kind of strange," the woman said.

"Let me be the judge of that," the doctor replied.

"Well," she said, "yesterday I went to the bathroom in the morning and heard a plink-plink-plink in the toilet. When I looked down, the water was full of pennies."

"I see," commented the doctor calmly.

"That afternoon, I went to the bathroom again and, plink-plink-plink, there were nickels in the bowl," the woman continued.


"That night," she went on, "I went again, and plink-plink-plink, there were dimes. This morning, there were quarters!"


"You've got to tell me what's wrong with me!" she implored. "I'm scared out of my wits!"

The gynecologist put a comforting hand on her shoulder. "There, there, it's nothing to be scared about," he said.

I emailed the real company with what was going on and its a scam but a really good scam. They liked what I had planned to do with the money though and suggested starting a non-profit and applying for a grant from the government to get it going!!

It's the first thing that came to my mind when they started talking about spiders & snakes....which I don't like!
Is there a particular reason you don't like them? Have you had a bad experience? Either caused any harm to you or loved ones? If not, what's your problem?! Smilie Smilie jk I understand the creepie crawlies can cause some folk anguish. However, if you really, really think about it and there is no reason these God's creatures have done nothing to you (plural), then accept them for exactly what they are, God's creatures/creations. They have a purpose on this earth just as you and I have.

A fifteen year old Amish boy and his father were in a mall. They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that could move apart and then slide back together again.
The boy asked, 'What is this Father?

The father (never having seen an elevator) responded, 'Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is.'
While the boy and his father were watching with amazement, a fat old lady in a wheel chair moved up to the moving walls and pressed a button. The walls opened, and the lady rolled between them into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched the small numbers above the walls light up sequentially.
They continued to watch until it reached the last number… and then the numbers began to light in the reverse order. Finally the walls opened up again and a gorgeous 24-year-old blond stepped out.
The father, not taking his eyes off the young woman, said quietly to his son.....
'Go get your Mother'


Hopefully there will be no offenses to anyone (ie.-fat old lady (me), in a wheelchair (could be me one day!) But I am a blond!

I could use a new curling iron, but I can't find one like my old one that had a velvety cover over the metal. I think I'll wait & see if they restock the prizes. Thanks for your answer, I want to close the window & get rid of the song on there because I'm listening to the radio in another browser! I didn't see a place to enter my info either, so I'm going to have to listen to that guy try to pronounce "salon" correctly again?

LOL... just got a facebook post from you that you got 8 out of 8 wrong.
I got 8 out of 8 right! What the heck?!!

Cowboy

The last time I rode on a train it was from Seattle to Whitefish, Montana at night. It was in mid-August during the Perseid meteor showers, and I got a terrific show from the observation car. One of the conductors was bored, and befriended me, (flirting) and took me to the caboose, where we stood outside smelling the night mountain air, and probably smoked a cigarette too. But that was in the early 1980's, and I believe you could smoke inside the train back then.
Odo-ban works great!!! My dumb a$$ ex smoked pot while he was in the hospital!!! They couldnt smell and and freaked out seeing how red his eyes were!!! LMAOLMAO
