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 !

Several years ago, the company I worked for offered online courses for free through college. At that time I built a computer. Then just reading books and stuff. Now I remember some of it, and look online to try to figure it out. Alot of stuff online, as long as your computer works enough to get online LOL

I am 5 hrs behind on posts, and I am sure some in my later posts to read has the actual answer, but this is my take on it:

We all know that 100% of men will brag about what a big dump he just took. So now for the woman: Hmmmmmmmmmmmm At least 50% of woman will fart in the bathroom, thinking they have been heard by others, so use "Dinner made my tummy icky" as an excuse. So: 50% of pop, + 25% of pop, my answer is 75%

Sorry, long thought, but it was actually funny trying to figure it out!
Youre so funny!!! Glad youre back!!! laugh out loud

Never made jelly in my life. I wish I could. Maybe that is a thought. I can clean, do bills a lot of stuff other people cannot do but I hate to cook. I just do the bare necessities. Cleaned 7 crabs again tonight and put the traps back in. These were mediums 5 to 6 1/2 inches, not nearly as large as the last batch but we did not go out to the bay, just one of the end lagoons.


There are larger prizes though,but that was I think the least thing you can win. Even if you win every day for a month it is not even $3. Would have rather seen sorry!!
Jelly is easy... Its just like making jello!!!! You basically juice the fruit, bring the juice to a boil and ad the pectin (which is like flavorless jello) stir till dissolved and add to jars that have resealable lids. The heat seals it and it makes jelly as it cools, just like jello!! Easy!!!

I saw a jelly maker kit on hsn or qvc with plastic reusable jars and it did look easy. I should have gotten it. I saw your windchime I think hanging in the corner in your fb page. I am going to sleep really soon. Mixing up my forms again. I know it is time to sleep when I do that. Good luck winning - you are due again for a big one! But I certainly will split my 10 cent win from sears with you. Cannot complain - I won a dove candy last night.

One more thing. When I go to try to play it says I've reached my maximum prize limit.
This means you won...I'd like to know how this turns out, so let us know if Macys (or whoever does the prizes) responds. Good luck!

I guess - if anyone saw me (my next door neighbor probably did, right by her backyard) with the wind starting and all, it must have been funny. Everyone batting down the hatches, people boarding windows, boaters dashing to get their boats to dry land, and I am picking pears.wave


It is working now. Loonng thing to look at. Now I have a new tune that is stuck in my head.
Quote from bornblondeey :
You know, after all is said and done, if anyone got bonked in the head by one of those pears it would have been me. I kept going out by the water to see if it was rising, and you guys would probably have been the only ones to know it was me if you saw it on the news. And, with all the questions and stuff I ask you all, I deserved that!

This truly made me chuckle, and is why you are Blondette and so endearing to us. heart
I was worried a bit about you, especially when you said you were staying behind and not evacuating. It's hard to imagine, having never been near a hurricane or tornado, what you were going through. But the image of flying, bonking pears is just too funny!
