RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

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 !

Today I was driving to WOK and called home on my cell phone because I had forgotten something. I got a busy signal, so I called back ten minutes later. Hubby said he was on the phone with a man from New York who called to tell me I won the Road to Aspen Sweepstakes.
I just got home. This is my e-mail:

OMG...I am flabbergasted and shakin' in my boots! I had just mentioned to hubby a couple days ago that this would be a fun prize to win.

I can't remember which of my facebook friends first sent me the link to this contest, but a number of us have been sending it back and forth in the last few weeks. Thank you for sharing...and I wanted to share this with my FF friends. Smilie
Congrats!! Nice win!! Thumbup

Did you ever get the t-shirt you won in the Dole trivia contest? I sent another e-mail a couple days ago, because I never got mine.

$5 gift card for buying $25 in P&G stuff [url]http://www.followlolorun.com/downloads/FamilyDollar_VisaRebate.pdf[
Oops. Family Dollar rebate is for everyone who shops at Family Dollar (with the normal exclusions for multiples, etc.) There was another P & G rebate making the round that I was seeing everywhere that was for military and families.

Congratulations Lizardo! It's wonderful that in addition to the trip (and cash to cover taxes), you will be able to visit family.woot

Good Morning all!
Won a $20 Wendys GC from the FB IWG. I've played this daily multiple times, sometimes for hours and FINALLY won!!!!! I had sorta decided that it wasn't going to happen, so I'm really happy!!!!!
Unfortunately, I haven't been to bed yet..............and it's a Swag multiple codes day-a total of 70 SB's.

Congratulations to all you winners, Thank-you for good wishes, the tasty food pictures/ dinner brags, and contest posts.
Hope that you and yours get/stay healthy. (Including the furbabies, mine just decided to gift me with a furball...........)
'til MY morning..........
Congrats on your gift card win!
That contest cracks me up because it pairs me up with Gary123X and pairs hubby up with me.

Thanks! Most folks don't like to win trips because of the taxes. I think it's extraordinary that they are giving money as part of the prize to cover that. It will also help out since we'll have to take time off work. I think this trip will be worth it...the Food and Wine Classic should be interesting and fun! This Colorado girl is going home to the Rocky Mountains! Smilie

Reminder... today is the post office annual food drive.
I finally got rid of my year's worth of fruit snacks that didn't contain fruit vomit A family with young kids will love it.

I'm close to being finished putting my personal gym together (Tyson 30 days win)... LOL. Taking my time & they also missed a couple bolts in the parts kit. I had to install & uninstall the weights 3 times (up & down tall poles!), because the instructions don't give enough details! This is a good workout. Simply invigorating. Weighlift
This made me laugh! So nice of you to give your Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks to the food drive, and making some children happy. Smilie
The box hubby won showed up while I was at WOK. I got home and here is this huge box with 12 boxes of fruit snacks, 24 snacks per box. One open, 4 left. He assures me they are made with real fruit...it says so on the box.
LMAO

Thanks so much MTmom! I'm still all shaky. One of my facebook posts is at the top of Food and Wine's facebook page! Is it too soon to say something there, since I'm still a potential winner? I have until Wednesday to e-mail the paperwork back, and will do it later today with hubby's help.
It's exciting for so many reasons! I love the Colorado Rockies, and would love to see my fambly! The last time I was there was for my youngest brother's funeral a few years ago. I've been in the restaurant business one way or another my entire life, so the food and wine part will be terrific! And I'm familiar with some of the people who will be showcased at this classic event because I've been a fan of the show Top Chef for a long time. I'm mind boggled that I won this! Smilie
