RETIRED: Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
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 !

Congrats, Hey Liz. Since you were the only FFr to survive round 2 and you have been doing C for a long time. What do you think the rest of us did wrong?
Thanks Dabs. So bittersweet, and I'm sorry for those of you who obviously should have won, along with several others who were tied up at the bottom in the end. Nobody did anything wrong. Who could have known that C would change the criteria to win between rounds?
A suggestion for Round 3 would be to leave a comment when you visit the wishes. The contest is meant to be interactive. It's one way to interact that is not obnoxious or intrusive. I left comments and thanked those who visited my wish.
Thanks to all in the Funny Farm for your support and good luck in Round 3!
Off to WOK...

I'm on the netbook now and Hotmail works on here. When I signed out of hotmail on the pc it told me to download IE 8. So I did and now just emptied cookies and temp files and am restarting we will see if all that helps if not something is up with my pc.
may the force be with you

did you run a scan? I had that with aol the other day and they were working on it. If it is just on hotmail, maybe that went bad or something. Is the rest of your computer working ok? Do they have a help button on hotmail or someone to call or write to? sorry.
Haven't ran a scan yet have things to do on here. It is only on this PC hotmail works fine on the netbook so has to be something with my computer. Ya trying to find a way to contact them.

I thought of that - see great minds think alike. nod but I am trying to get rid of stuff and said to myself "bad idea".
Just checked C still not up. Says no matches for the finalists. Looks like they will be up soon enough. I gotta go for a while. I still have underlined words on some of the posts. Should I write to Sierra or is that just a firefox thing? I don't want to bother her unnecessarily.
somehow you have spellcheck turned on so its probably with firefox

I tried amazon and it wouldn't take my code. Amazon would be my first choice too.

um.... dont make typos!!! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) Just kidding. You should be able to click on a tool, wrench or something in the top of your browser and look for addons and turn it off. Gotta go shopping sister is waiting. BBL

Quote from julesp29 :
well back on the pc and none of that helped. as soon as I open hotmail everything is there but it instantly says error on page in bottom left of screen and the hour glass thing just stays there constantly. Could this be a virus?
I have no idea...... I had been running Microsoft Essentials....I always ran a scan daily but it never came up with anything....After Gary and the others were talking a day or so ago, I took it off and put on that ESET Nod32 and also the malwarebytes?.....

The Nod32 came up with 4 different things and the malwarebytes came up with 9......

I just called today. They said maybe this week. They are nice but still backed up. So watch this week closely.
