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 never said it was worth $100. I said the Lions Club would be lucky to get $5 at their yard sale. The "winner" waaaay overbid. Of course, Dabbs and secretbatline egged him on. The whole episode, from start to finish, was unreal.
But quite fun to watch.

This is what the girls accidently gave me for Mother's Day - Just to give ya'll a funny:

The youngest one was caught not completing her classwork yesterday. The substitute teacher asked why she wasn't doing her work. She mumbles - because I am bored. The teacher raised her voice and asked her again. In her response she yells: It's because I am bored! Well she was sent out in the hall to compose herself. Her normal teacher saw her and asked what happened. She was told to go back to her seat and the teacher called me and stated not to worry, but she explained to the substitute she should not take offence as she did ask a child who is literal what she was doing.

The oldest child snuck gum and fell asleep with it. Yep this is why we don't give it to them as it got stuck in her hair. As she didn't want to get into trouble for chewing gum she tried to get it out but couldn't. She borrow scissors - oh yep- she did a fantastic job she now has a HUGE bald spot on top of her head.


All a mother can do is shake her head and laugh.....
my grand daughters did that to each other and blamed each other for doing it. Not the gum they just got the scissors and cut each other hair.

So who can forget buttercup, right? She was the one selling a similar purse with the tags. She pulled it off of eBay because no one was approaching the price she wanted -- listed as $69.99 Buy Now. Well, she has the same purse (I think) now listed as $84.99 Buy Now. She must have been fuming when she saw how the bidding went on the thing MLx3 listed. And I sincerely doubt she'll find someone as strange as our winner. Or people like Dabbs and secretbatline to up the bids. Have to wonder how long her current listing will last and if she'll pull that one too.

Okay, here's what happened.

I got home late, checked the eBay listing and almost lost my lunch. I thought secretbatline had won and I panicked. I PM'd MLx3 and asked what I should do because it was WAAAAY overbid. She told me that actually ronluvsleather had won and my blood pressure must have dropped at least 100 points.

I had to feed the cats, deal with some mail and PM'd back and forth with MLx3, but here I am. STILL IN SHOCK ! !

THANK YOU, MLx3. Worthy I never would have thought to sell it on eBay. I buy stuff on the site but have never sold anything.

THANK YOU, Dabbs. You got the bidding started and kept it going even though I was desperate for you to stop because I was afraid you'd "win" it.

THANK YOU secretbatline for keeping the bidding going even though I'm sooooooo glad you didn't win. If that sounds mean, I'm sorry, but it wasn't worth the price. It wasn't worth half the price. You can do and deserve so much better.

THANK YOU, everyone for your support and excitement and sympathy for my plight. It's been a crazy few weeks, with LOTS of laughing. And maybe it will be over soon. But not soon enough, trust me. I want that OUT of my living space and OUT of my life.

There's no possibility that it could find it's way "back home" after I mail it off, right? RIGHT??? Bigeye
Just to be on the safe side, don't put a return mail address on the package.

Oh, I love that place and the boys take me there for my birthday each year. Neither eat the cheese much and then then load up on the meat before I can get to the good stuff. Then one year the manager brought me some white chocolate dessert because each year the kids pick the cookies and creme and I don't get what I want. Nice place to spend some quality time!!! Glad you enjoyed it.


Tonight the bartender brought me a free Ying Yang Martini - quite tasty. It was their first time there - very enjoyable evening.

I also finally have that darn song into a ring tone and this time I save them all on my computer.

Glad you finally have it Smilie
