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'm here to tell you that the clown shoes never showed up, however the size sandal my niece wanted DID just come through the door and look like this:

(They're made by Indosole, all hand made, using tires from landfill)

I'll admit that I don't wear sandals so can't say if she'll like these, but better than clown shoes, eh?

I'll give them to my sister to give to my niece and if she doesn't want them, I'm certain that someone at the Center will. Whew ! ! ! After all that, something decent showed up. woot
Congrats Smilie I like the top of em, not sure about the bottom, but wouldn't see it, and it's a good thing they recycle, as long as they are comfy Smilie

I have IE8 on my netbook. I saw no reason to change what was on it to begin with. Using the netbook is okay but I reallly have no desire to use it all the time. It's just too slow. I like having it when we travel to see the kids and other places.

I did get myself a nice plastic tray at Bed Bath & Beyond to sit it on when I'm lounging on the sofa. Good deal with a coupon. Has a very small lip that helps keep my mouse from sliding off. I guess a cutting board would have worked too, but this has the soft padding underneath.

http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/p...U=16858951
I keep mine in front of the screen of my desktop. I bought a really big one with a fan at BJ's it has a big high lip and it is raised up high. Not too good for your lap but perfect for what I use it for. I even went back and bought a second in case the fan in this one goes as it makes noise sometimes. I originally got it for when my desktop broke as I kept it on the kitchen table and it raised it and I kept all my papers and mouse on it and the keyboard in the back part. I use it when it storms here and not too much now - just for a back-up.

i7 over priced and not worth the extra cost unless you do film editing
get i5 dell is a good choice
do not get HP

Lenovo is also good choice. used to be IBM

I make these recommendations from listening to Leo Laport on the radio every Saturday and Sunday

here is his site:
http://techguylabs.com/radio/pmwiki.php

these are his recommendations every week Dell and Lenovo
I tend to agree with this too he also says get the i5
Now you tell me not to get an HP - too late, but why? did I make a big mistake?

What is the i5 Gary? Maybe my "new" desktop is already out of date - could that be?

OMG. Now I'm really really ticked off at that stupid contest. If they weren't going to count entries 2 through 5, they should have notified us when we clicked enter. There's NO excuse for that. But at least I don't feel so bad about quitting. shake head
You were reusing the same code too???? It was just so much of a hastle to copy and paste a different code each car!!! At least I got 1 vote a day that counted!!! Big Grin
