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 !

That's what I need. When I open the list there are pages of prizes. Do I just have to search for the tractor or am I doing something wrong?

My Dr is worried about mine since Ive been leaching calcium from my bones for a long time. Wants me to start weight training and bouncing on a small trampoline!!! It helps to increase the bone density along with clacium and D. Im still not taking calcium in but at least Im not losing it anymore!
I cannot take calcium-upsets my stomach too much. He checked my vit. D level and it is fine. I will not bounce on a trampoline as I know i will hit my head. nod

Hello Funny Farm, from Aspen, Colorado! We stayed a few days in Denver with my sister, and rented a car yesterday and drove west into the mountains. What a beautiful drive in wonderful sunny weather! We came around a curve, and there was a sign that said "Entering No Name". Hubby and I looked at each other, laughed and had to do a high five! (OWTW folks will get it.) I wanted a postcard, but there is nothing much in No Name but some beautiful homes.
Our room here at The Gant is bigger than my house. Three bedrooms, three baths, a beautiful kitchen and living room. I found out last night that this room goes for almost $2000 a night. (WOW!) Today and the next few days we have a full agenda with food and wine classes and seminars. We have tickets to a concert by Elvis Costello on Saturday, which was a surprise. The weather is hot, the countryside is extraordinarily beautiful, and we are being pampered to the max!
I've been able to keep up with the FF, while at my sister's house. Congrats to those of you with some fun wins this last week! Smilie

Morning all and TGIF to those of you that still work Big Grin
Thanks for all the links and congrats to all the winners. I've got nothin to share as usual, still a loser Embarrassment, so I will just share this. Wink

I found a penny today
Just laying on the ground.
But it's not just a penny
This little coin I've found.

Found pennies come from heaven
that's what my Grandpa told me.
He said Angels tossed them down
Oh, how I loved that story!

He said when an Angel misses you
They toss a penny down,
sometimes just to cheer you up
To make a smile out of your frown.

So don't pass by that penny
When you're feeling blue.
It may be a penny from heaven
That an Angel's tossed to you.

Have a great day, a better but safe weekend, and of course, a great Fathers day.
TC, See ya's hug

I think we need to investigate this age discrimination thing marlboro is doing for trips to the ranch & bdays. This year they sent me a bday gift... a coupon off a single pack of cigs. Even though in my preferences, I told them I only buy cartons. They used to have some cool things for bdays. A buck off a pack? tossed it. shake head
They do that. And you are not even old.

Well I got to tell you that too much togetherness is not always a good thing. Thank goodness the house is big enough that we can go in separate rooms. We are two people who definitely need time to ourselves and space. We'll see how the 2-day workweek goes. He's just tired of working, but he likes to have a few bucks in his pocket for whatever.
I know. In the winter when work is slow for him I try to go out at least once a day for a short while by myself. But he has his little work trailer outside and makes stuff and fixes stuff even in the cold. It is hard at at times.

Quote from Wishalot :
Always like entering the Little Debbie contests although I haven't won a thing. Probably cause I like Little Debbies, plus the form is easy to fill.
I always entered. Do always fill out the 2nd part like the survey of where you buy, what do you like, etc.? That is the part I do not like daily. Has anyone ever won?
