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 !

So the thing with my Parking Lights not going off. SIL gets here this morning with Belle and he goes down to look at my car hooks the battery back up and yep lights are still on so he show me how to pull the fuse for it and they go off. So he leaves and I go on line and type what is going on and a whole page of different Subaru owner have the same question and they all got the same answer. There is a dang separate switch on top of the steering column behind the steering wheel. When I was washing the steering column I must have hit it. Went and clicked it put the fuse back in and lights are off. LOL easy fix and no one could figure it out. Thank you internet.
Wow, thats cool Jules Smilie

Thanks Sly Smilie You've had some nice wins too, congrats!

One reason I haven't been on much is that my mom is very ill. What started out in Jan as "bad numbers" on a regular check up turned into a failing kidney with a possible tumor blocking it. Finally they know that the tumor is in the ureter and is malignant. She is scheduled for surgery this Thursday in the Woodlands (near Houston) and will have the kidney and tumor removed. I am very worried, the cancer is said to look "angry". I am praying the cancer is contained inside the ureter and has not spread, your prayers would be very appreciated. Thank you!
Sad to hear your news. Will be wishing good thoughts for your mother, you, and your family.
