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 !

Oh and WE will hide every issue you have in everystore WE go!!!!
and off it goes!

Dear Carol,
With our most sincere apologies, we regret to inform you that due to an administrative error you have been mistakenly informed you won the LG television prize in a sweepstakes you entered. Unfortunately, you were not the winner, so we are unable to award you the prize.
Our sincere apologies for the confusion and misunderstanding. Our readers and entrants are most important to us -- and we want you to know we are resolving this issue so it absolutely NEVER happens again.
Thank you for your understanding."
Sometimes I HATE it when I'm right.
I can't believe you would contact one of my friends Carol,and tell her that she was the winner of a TV from one of your contests. Then turn around and email her again saying you MADE A MISTAKE and she is not winner. What kind of a company do you people operate? And don't even offer her a consolation prize? Your magazine will never be in my home of many of my other friends again. You've lost a lot of business over this blunder.
After I submitted it, it send they would contact me within like 7-10 days.

Hi my name is Dori from Funny Farmers United. I am writing today because I am very upset about a recent contest you conducted, An email sent an to my friend Carol which said she won a television. Then you later sent an email saying it was a mistake!? WTH! This is NOT RIGHT, not to mention very bad for business. You need to make it right! This was your mistake. If you are really in touch like your magazine claims then make it so! Make it right and award her a television too!
So..............remember a few weeks ago I told you I got an email about winning a TV and I was CERTAIN it was a scam? Well, it may not have been a scam, but it WAS a mistake. Got the following email this AM:

In Touch Weekly did the same thing to me. I received that same e-mail you got, back on April 6, advising I had won the LG TV ... and the "SORRY our bad you didn't win" e-mail today. Disappointed beyond belief. I had been dreaming about that TV for a week
I am also from Funny Farmers United. We are really disappointed that you sent an email saying Carol and another of our members won a TV then sent a recent letter saying it was a mistake. How can you do that to people???? We read your Mag and trust that you are legit. This is just WRONG! If you don't make this right I will make sure to let all my face book, email, bloggers, MySpace, and twitter friends that you don't honor your contest obligations. How can you get their hopes up and then just smash them. Not very nice In Touch.
okay, I just sent this. Hope it helps.
