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. Hope you get it.

I "won" a 4-can car care kit from them in mid March that never showed up. I do seem to remember someone winning who actually received the prize.
My car care kit(s) showed up next day UPS after the win

I had no prob with Camel today. One thing that will lock you out is if you try to log on more than twice with a wrong password. I think that's why I was locked out a while back,, possibly had the Caps Lock on ?? You'll have to call peggy

Did ya get a horse??? Saw your fb page. My step mom used to show Tennessee walkers and once in a while the jumping stuff. She enjoyed it. We just liked it when we went to her house (before she married my dad) we would get to play with the horses and go riding the trail with her........ NEVER NEVER ride a barrel racer around cows!!!!! Especially if you dont know knee pressure commands!!!! Pissed those cows off!!!! Scared me to death!!! Squeezed tighter to hold on!!! Stupid horse was getting a kick out of it!! Probably thought it was funny!!! Cows wanted to kill me every time they saw me!!!! EEK!

Wave Good Morning all. Thanks for the links and Congrats to all of the recent winners. Some really good ones, I see. Must catch up here or I'll never be up-to-date.

Jules--Hope all goes well with your Grandniece. Glad she is in good hands.

Jem--Happy Belated Birthday!!

Blondee--Try to be careful & slow down a bit, for your own good.

Has anyone seen the Dancing Leprechaun ( fstate ) around lately? Haven't seen a post from him in a long time.

Lizardo--What luck!! Glad you had and are having a great time. Congrats!!

Will try to acknowledge more as I go along.........
thanks I am trying. But remember that trellace that is falling? Well, it now took the fence down along with it 1/2 of the way. Had to cut most of the vine away and this beautiful dove has a nest with eggs in it and put it back into a small branch. Out of everything that fell, I hope so bad the dove will return. don't know after I touched the nest. She sat there and looked for hours. feel bad. Like a storm taking away someone's house. she just watched.

Hi Blondeey, I can't say if your dove will come back, but touching the eggs won't be what stops her.
I used to be into bluebirding , I've had to change nests with babies in them , I moved a nestbox to a slightly different location with eggs in it, and the parents come back.

LMAOglad you didnt get hurt!
Havent found an equine partner yet but trying some really nice ones....hoping I will know when it is the perfect fit. I am being patient. Right now it is a buyers market for horses too. My other horse is with my trainer... her son who is 26 wanted him instead of her selling him for me. Well, they are now showing and winningnod He just loves that horse...good match for him but not for me or boyfriend. Boyfriend got 6 broken ribs and 4 days in ICU trauma 2 yrs ago from that horse throwing him. I would still ride him to be sure he stayed under saddle but was always nervous cuz I aint no spring chicken and I dont bounce as good as I used tolaugh out loud
Oh, and as always thanks for all you do for us in the FFhug

That is good to know...always thought you could not ever touch eggs, babies, or nestshake head
My birds are eating me out of house and home. I have 8 seed feeders and have to fill them every other dayEEK! I have 2 pair of doves, several cardinals, lots of purple finches, and the pretty yellow goldfinches, bluebirds(not as many),blackbirds-different kinds, and sometimes those beautiful indigo buntings! Also have some hummingbird feeders-ruby throated hbirds come to the window where we put those feeders. Last week one got in my garage and got stuck hanging upside down in a thick cobweb. I got on a ladder and got him. He couldnt move he was so covered..he let me clean him off and rested on my hand about 10 seconds or so then decided to fly off...kind of slow but I think he made it. Was so cool holding him! So tiny! Have 1 blue heron that comes daily to fish. He is so big with those long stick legs. Stays right there when we are fishing too. So majestic when he flies off. Out front we have 2 very large red tail hawks. They are beautiful. I just love animals! God's creation is just so amazing bounce

Sorry you had to cut it down. I know it meant alot to you but it will come back and might even be bushier than before. If you use a wood trellis back it up with a good sturdy metal one or use some of the new durable materials. Wood rots so bad and the stuff to make it last is harsh on plants. I bought a blue jacaranda?? and something called a mailbox vine wanting to cover the rock wall on the property line to make it pretty. Theres a chain link fence on top of it so my grandma used to tie her climbing roses to it using coat hangers and wire real loosely and they lasted 50 years til the crazy old lady bought the house and took out every flower!!! A little passive aggressive!!! She did it as a way to have the final jab at her mom. I call her the crazy old lady cause she kinda is now but she has mental issues. Shes really smart but thinks the world is out to get her mixed with manic depressive episodes. When shes really high and energized she goes overboard and likes people but then she crashes and tries to destroy them before they can get her! We like her in the middle but its hard to keep her there!! She was in a come near death about 10 years ago from something with her liver and a virus and she got really dingy when she came out of it. Now I can stand to be around her. Every surgery she has had since has made her even loopier!! Now shes fun to mess with!!! Last time she had surgery we really messed with her!!! Put a sale price on the tag attached to her oxygen tube!!! Told her the nurse did it!!! Told her the surgery went well ans she can now live her life as a man!!! and the one that got her the most...... Sorry mom, they removed the wrong breast. They are coming right now to go back and take the other one!!! Just then the nurse came back in!!! She was having problems talking so I asked the nurse if there was an option to not have all the pain killers!!! Mom about hit the roof!!!! She loves her pain meds!!! All she remembers of that hospital stay was that I came to see her!!! No one else... just me!!! LMAO
