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 !

Quote from MLx3 :
Ok people, enough is enough. I am running a legitimate auction on ebay for a friend. I am treating it as such, including answering all kinds of ridiculous questions, like this one I just received:

"Does the clutch still have the fresh leather smell? If you're not sure, easiest way to tell is to open and stick your face in the bag."

FAIR WARNING: This is NOT a joke to me, and, when the auction is over, I will be sending an invoice to the high bidder & expecting payment. If payment is not received, I will file a claim with ebay.

Sorry to be a purse-party pooper, but this has gone too far, and I won't have my ebay reputation tarnished by anyone, including my Funny Farm friends.
I am sure IF it is a FF'er they will pay you, and leave good feedback for you as well, but I imagine the ?s would be time consuming. Rest assured This FF'er has not bid or questioned Smilie

Gary, I would appreciate it if you would leave it alone. You are not running the auction, I am, for shesays - not for your entertainment.

Crap like that will show up in a Google search, and really don't want the SD and ebay worlds crossing over. Cool it, please.

I am sorry people are sending you joke questions, and that really isn't funny. Except for Dabbs, I really doubt they are from legit bidders. It really is funny, but not when it has a possibility of hurting you! I promise, I never asked a stupid question, and ask others to stop.
Not only does it hurt me, it hurts shesays, who is trying to get some money for that purse.

When you're asking others to stop asking stupid questions, would you ask Gary to quit posting auction/bidding info - that kind of stuff shows up in a Google search, and all the SD jokes do NOT need to be a part of a legitimate auction.

Quote from terdar :
You can do it Treedown02 I quit the 1st of the year after 35 years of smoking and all I did was tell my self it is just a choice of not purchasing any to smoke and that I could not afford 5.25 a pack x 2 (husband and me) a day. I have saved 300.00 a month I don't see the savings but I am. ha ha On unemployment and they were taking 100.00 a month from me and I just had to do it for my kids could eat and I could live in my home. So I replaced smoking with on line computer games and forums. SD, Freebies and sweepstakes. Oh and candy, gained a little bit of weight but I can lose it. So far it has been 5 months and 5 days for me. So If I can do it you can too!!!! Mind over matter just keep telling yourself you don't smoke. Good luck we are all here for you!!
Thanks for the support.hug
