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 !

OK Folks. Time for me to check in. We celebrated our 35th anniversary this weekend. Went out to eat Friday night but our anniversary was Saturday. The first half of the evening was fun and I got to wear that black dress I bought last year for a special occasion. But after the second half of the evening, I had no idea how I could have been married to that man for 35 years. Oh well, I got over it.

Saturday night we went to a friend's retirement party (37 years with postal service). He and wife are Irish and big-time partyers. They hired an Irish musician, who plays at the Milwaukee Irish fest, to entertain us. It was a grand time and more fun than going out to eat the previous night.

Actually won something on Monday ($25 GC) from a sweep I entered for the first time (ends June 9). Felt great.

Always happy seeing the rest of you win.
Congratulations on your milestone anniversary and the gift card is always a handy dandy bonus! Smilie

I've been busy getting ready for the trip to Aspen. We leave from SeaTac on Tuesday and fly into Denver. I just got a call from QVC and they are sending me an overnight check for $3000 for spending money and taxes...should be here Monday.
We opted for the doggie spa and resort, rather than have my co-wokker watch Zeek. The Chinese people I WOK for are incredibly afraid of dogs and might just eat him. EEK! (Just kidding!)
It's hard to imagine 72 degrees in Aspen at almost 8000 feet above sea level, when it has been rainy and cold here in the 50-60's!
Hadnt seen you in a couple days and thought you were already back! Doggie spa is best. He can get pampered!!! and no Daily Specials for WOK!!!! Thought of opening a doggie massage parlor! bring your dog in for a bath, massage conditioning fur treatment, mani/pedi the works!!! Never wanted a girl because she would be high maintenance but I love pampering dogs!!!! They dont talk back and appreciate everything!!! laugh out loud

This is my interpretation of the Camel regifting program. At the end of the program, you will be given the opportunity to redeem your gift selections for a chance at one of the randomly selected computer generated times of an "instant win". The more times you participate in the program, the more chances you get. Since there are four separate gift exchange periods, you can accumulate up to four chances for the "instant win". It doesn't matter which gift you choose, as long as you pick at least one gift every two weeks. The regifting portion is just to drive up excitement, and possibly for market research to see which items their consumer base are most interested in. I agree that the gifts are very lame, but what is else do you expect from Camel.

Also, thanks for running this board and your contest pages.

Marlboro would give the ipod not the $15 ipod dock!!! Confused Marlboro should be ramping up something soon hopefully! Someone needs to call to ask about something (anything) and bring up they like the oWTW!!! or any of their sweeps and ask when they are having a new one!!! Its Summer Time for a new one!!!
I dont get the Camel one. Most people on there dont either! I just go and participate so I stand a chance at anything. Sister has started a thing for her employees. (both of them!!!LOL) Who ever does the best that week at their job gets to pich from my left over/no body wants prize box!!! LMAO

Dear Cindy,
Do you like surprises? There is a pair of Smirnoff shot glasses or a high ball glass on its way to your door.
Cool Yay! Some glasses for the woman cave! Hubby got some too. Jules or someone said you can win more than once.

Thanks for the General Mills link. Smilie
Zeek is the most high maintenance dog I have owned because of his itching issues. He is a funny fellow. The only time we have ever heard him bark is in his sleep. He is a gentle, sweet and well behaved friend. The doggie spa is best...we can't go on a happy trip and leave a lonely, unhappy pup behind!

What did I win anyway?
Congrats! Smilie
(I'm glad some folks explained this for you and me.)
Quote from sly6855 :
Congrats on all the wins, I finally snaged a Bic marker this morning. I don't understand the new Camel game either, if I win something fine but i'm not expecting too. I have the same problems on my FB friends, they complain about all the sweeps i'm doing I just tell then to delete me cause I don't get on in to chat just use it for my sweeps, I thought you could only have one FB account, maybe i'll try to set up another just for friends if it lets me.
Hi sly! Wave
I got a Bic marker the first time I tried...lol.

Quote from BelAirBelle :
Well, so far I made a group (open to public now and all can see) Funny Farm Friends SD. It shows up on my FB page (as it should yours) at left column near bottom after friends, family, etc. any member can invite anyone to join. When I enter a contest if it has a "show/share on your own timeline or" (at upper left usually) I use the down arrow by it to select "group" I only have to type 1st letter and the group comes up. Also, if there is a contest on your own wall and you want to share you can just share with group. I did have it "private group" while I was trying to set it up, but found I also had to choose "specific friends or lists" when entering some of the contests, so I made a list that said "Funny Farm" from certain friends. I think I'm sort of on the right track but hate FB timeline and they should make this easier to do. I'm sure we are not the only people on FB that want to do this (but they want you to involve Every One of your friends-greedy so and so's) Any ideas????

Hi Belle!
Nice that you poked your head in! Congratulations on your upcoming retirement! This could be a great idea, and I will check it out later. (Gotta get some things done...)
