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 !

Gary - got some info off one of my groups you might find useful:
I've had the same problem with my 2005, progressive headlight lens fogging or rot. I tried several different kits from the local autozone and was always able to get them fairly clear but with rapid re-fogging.
I picked up a product on the recommendation of a friend, a plastic cleaner/polish made by zaino brothers sold over the net.

It is not a very aggressive polish in its bite (it must have a very fine and fast breaking down grit) after several tries it kept removing some of the funk but it was quite heavy near the bumper and I couldn't seem to get it completely clean by hand so I used some leftover from a previous product to get the lenses cleaned up. What every they are using as a shine enhancement/preservative has worked very well in the Texas heat. They have stayed perfectly clear (and very glossy) for over 6 months now.
I've touched them up once just because I was giving the car its annual spring clean and wax to protect the paint.
At 12.95 + 9.95! shipping I have enough to last me 5-10 years as it just takes a dime sized amount of fluid to do a "cleaned" headlight lense, so If anyone in austin wants to give theirs a polish let me know.

BTW Because of the shipping cost I ended up buying several other products (the shipping fee is per order) and have been pleased with them so far. We will see how they hold up compared to the Mothers products I have gotten from the local auto supply and used for years.

Even $22.95 beats having to replace the headlight lenses and its nice to know that the money I spent on the "silver star" replacement bulbs is getting out on the road.

Well, I got depressed this morning. Frown No way I can win that $500 Tango card. I checked out the other entries and almost no one had any comments, so probably had no votes. But then I came upon the one that will do me in. It's from a mother of a boy who has had heart surgery and the father has been so good about it. Heck, I almost voted for them.

So I said to myself, "You win some, you lose some and some you didn't even know to enter." Then I made myself some popovers. I make good popovers, but you need two eggs and I don't usually have eggs in the house. Nothing against eggs, mind you, I just don't use them very often. At any rate, I slathered them with butter, drank a nice hot cup of green tea and my spirits perked right up. Stick Out Tongue Yes, it's easy being easy. bounce
Stll could have a good chance Smilie Son got a b-day present from marlboro, a nice bottle opener (like I had when I was a kid) that is mounted with screw (I've never gotten a b-day present from them). Gotta go tend to dinner. Menu: grilled beef fajitas, spanish rice, pico de gallo, charro beans. Yum yum!

Yeah, that one is seriously pissing me off so far.

First night, won a free corndog on my wife's account, it froze at the print stage in Chrome, and wouldn't allow a reprint.

Last night, I won a Pepsi, and it froze at the "Congrats!" stage in FF, never even got to the printout stage, and no email from them with the printout link.

Don't know if I want to play it anymore, if I won a TV and it froze, I'd go postal on the people that wrote that pile of crap.

Well to bad I can't use it in California because I just found out I'M Going For Free next month for my nieces wedding. WOO HOO! Was talking to my old roommate/friend from Calif. the other day and said how badly I wanted to go to my niece's wedding down there. She said let me call my son and see what I can do. (he is a pilot for southwest airlines) Didn't get my hopes up cuz i figured only family can fly free. Turns out he gets 4 buddy passes for friends each year. Well he was out until august which is to late but his friend he had sent 2 passes (for round trip) to come visit him canceled and was going to the send the passes back to him so he gave his friend my address to send them to me. YES Calif. here I come. Sorry Jem won't being doing country fest for sure I will send you my tickets tomorrow and you can give them to your friends.

thanks - I entered. I stayed up last night and won a mechanical pencil on the Uniball - I think Gary won one and I cannot find his post to ask him - it stated that an email was sent. This was at 4AM and I still have not received it at 5:30 PM. Do you think they messed up?


I only ordered 1 extra large on smirnoff - hope I do not win on that one. I have been ordering Large each day but the one I won a long time ago which did not come yet I am pretty sure I ordered a large.

uni ball sent me a congrat email
so I guess it's coming but the email came the next day
