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 !

OK, guys, could really use your help on this, as gas money (well, ANY money) is getting scarce. I entered my pic at the Brads Deals contest - http://www.facebook.com/bradsdeals Unfortunately, there is no dedicated spot, you just post to their wall. Look for "Tom Stangl" or the pic of the hippy in the tie-dye T. I just posted it, 1 Like (me) so far, and the leaders are up near 200, with the end of the contest in a few days (I THINK 4/20). So if you have FB Friends with lots of Friends, feel free to ask them to vote for me (Like my pic - that's all that is needed to vote, no comment needed)

Argh! My pic showed there for a minute or 2, and now isn't there. I uploaded it again, hopefully it will stay there this time...

Okay... racked up a big win of ear buds on that one (as many of us). At least it didn't take a lot of time!

thx for the info, Jules.

I am having such a tough time - I am not writing to ask you directly, but just anyone who got the netbook from Marlboro. My desktop is still being fixed and now this - windows tried 30 times to do a service pack update. I have been on the phone with microsoft for over 5 hrs. and still cannot do the updates and it keeps trying and trying, they installed explorer 9 (it came with 8) and i could not even find FF which I just did now. Has anyone had any of these problems or is it just me. I have been using this little netbook for a few days and everything was fine until this So frustrating,. I have to sit here now and wait for them to call me as they have escalated it. Am I lucky or what?
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but try downloading the dedicated SP1 install file from http://www.microsoft.com/download...laylang=en - you'll probably be using windows6.1-KB976932-X86.exe
It's about 500Megs in size, so could take a VERY long time to download, but having the file local might get it to run. And if not, you can at least tell the MS tech you have the SP1 install file downloaded, in case he wants you to use it as part of his troubleshooting process.
