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 !

Thank you. They sent me the email at 3:34pm this afternoon, but I see that they already have a new clue ("The mouse likes to relax by nibbling his cheese while lounging on his deck. You'll find him in an article learning how create a space where he can do that.") on their website. What good was sending me a clue this afternoon, that would change in a few hours? The past 7 days' clues that they sent me were pretty easy, and I registered for those days with no problem; they must've gotten this email out late, or something. So, thanks again!
Don't know if you got the answer, (behind in reading) but third page in decks

Congrats on the xbox too!!! I should do more contests and less gaming, but school is starting in a few weeks and I won't be doing much but studying anyway!! (Yes, going back at 35 to finally finish what I started in 1995....I think I'm a little worried!)
Congrats on returning to school. When you're young and in school, half your time is spent just trying to figure out who you are. You're old enough to know that now and will be able to concentrate much better on course work. Mind you, I don't envy you but the satisfaction you'll get will be worth the tests and term papers. Best of luck, and if it's any consolation, the FF does not require copies of report cards to keep you enrolled here. shake head

Congrats Lizardo!!!






Yeah, she did it! But I gotta mail it.

Ok, I just got a weird call from my sis. My parents' garage burned down a couple of weeks ago. To the ground, no cause found. They had to buy a new (used) car to replace their nice, burnt truck.
Yesterday my dad takes the car to go to store and discovers their outside dog Blackie, killed and stuffed beneath the front seat, he had been there long enough for maggots and smell, so much it will have to be totaled.
My folks are the nicest people ever, living their retirement in small town, no problems ever. WTH!!! I'm in shock! Suspect crazy ex sis-in-law though she's been out of family 20 years!!! They got robbed when they first moved there and they always suspected her...crazy. This stuff doesn't happen to people like me and mine!!
I truly hope that there is a special place in hell for people who kill pets. Mad

Nobody should have to go through what your parents have. I've no suggestions on how to solve their problems, but I hope someone does. They deserve to live their lives in peace and safety.

I was shopping last night and the check out girl always wants me to get her lane so she can here all about where I got the coupons from and what new I have won. Shes quite a tomeboy. I told her I have won 11 RC cars from Tornados and was giving them away to friends. She jumped in line after Blondeey!!!! lol
I went shopping to Costco. Before I forget, someone asked (maybe Shesays, forget, sorry) if they have croissants big enuf for a sandwich there. they have them pretty nice 12 for $5.99 but I think I got them once and they were a little sweet. I put them into my cart and thought I must want to get fat because I would eat them all, I know it.
I have made this computer room such a mess with computer stuff and papers and not filing my bills, etc. because I have to "win". I remembered they had these white really strong cubes all hooked together so I was lucky they had a few left. Now I have to squeeze into this room because you "have to make a big mess before you straighten it out". So slowly I will do so in this heat.

I took them out of my cart, did not say that. but the milk I got there is all bad so I have to go back tomorrow and show them and I will put those croissants back into my cart again. nod

Quote from cwhetme :
After 20 years of Drs "guessing" what is wrong with me and the ones that feel it is possibly an auto immune response I finally got an out of state DR ( from Cali) to give me the closest thing to a diagnoses I have had. ALL my symptoms hit at once and he ran kidney and liver tests and the numbers were off the charts!!!! Most Auto immune disorders like Lupus and Lyme and MS only show up during a flare up. My usual Dr told me I had veinous insuffuciencey and ordered old lady stockings and water pills. I went in on her day off and got the new guy. I told him the water pills dont work even when I doubled them and he got worried. I told him drinking a pot of extra strong coffee worked alot better so thats why he ordered the kidney tests and they found trouble. I go next Monday to find out what the tests results mean.
Theyve suspected Lupus for years and I have to exfoliate and moisturize my face daily or it gets flakey and I did have Lymes disease when I was trapsing all over the mountains around Seattle in the 80's (stupid ticks!) but theyve also thought it was reumalogical too. With a diagnosis they can treat it!!!!
On the plus side its not the veinous insufficiency (told them as much) but it took my kideys failing to finally get somewhere. Maybe now I can finally get rid of the pain and other symptoms so I feel really good about it

I can't believe how frustrating this must have been for you over the years. Finding a doctor who is capable of diagnosing your disease is even better than getting the third racing car. At least I hope it is. Guess it depends on your priorities. But it sounds like a real, certifiable WIN to me. Congratulations. bounce
