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 !

No big plans but Mark and Christian (the 15 yr old) are taking me to dinner and they cleaned the house so I'm happy. Since I'm now 62 I have officially retired. Going to go do some sweeps, maybe I'll be lucky today laugh out loud

Please tomorrow sometime (maybe mid afternoon) could you please send me a PM or answer this post. Sam's mother passed away a few hours ago. I packed up the netbook and have not used it in months so my last ff post is so long ago i will never be able to find us on there. I don't know how long I will stay, We did not expect this. Don't even know if I will be able to get online at all, but if I can, at least I can find us. thank you. I don't know what will happen. I have to leave my cat alone and do not know if I should leave the air on. I will not have 4 dogs as I have to take hers. Sam is so very upset. He talked to her at 6 last night. I had a terrible dream 2 nights ago and it all meant something and I told him to go and he should have. The daughter in law lives in her house for free and we cannot afford to pay the bills there for her to live there and do not know what to do with the electric, etc. Too much to figure out right now. I have no sweeps on the netbook but i can probably find marlboro and camel. You do not have to say anything because i know you all care as we all care for each other but this is all too much for me to handle. Just say a prayer if you pray. Thank you.
I'm so sorry Blondette. You, Sam and his family have my condolences. Hang in there, things will come together, and we will see you soon. hug

Well I'm glad you're okay. At least you didn't hit a pig. Venison is always a tasty meal.
Thanks popp. Smilie
One night driving home there were two rigs stopped on the side of the road. As I drove by, I ran over a dead deer. I didn't see it because of their headlights. I'm sure one of them had just hit it. I watched in my rear view mirror as they loaded it into the back of a pickup truck. You'd think they would have flagged me down so I didn't hit it too.
Quote from julesp29 :
Sorry to hear about the damage so glad your okay!!!! That happened to me last month when my sister was here. We were coming back from Hayward, WI just went past Sasquawatche's place and a doe jumped out onto the HWY went to hit the breaks and had flip flops on and my foot slipped off and hit the gas LOL hit her in the rear, looked in the rear view mirror and she went down jumped back up and ran back in the woods and then ran right back out again across the HWY her doe was probably on the other side maybe for her to do it again. So I pulled over and not a mark on my car (I lucked out) I must have just caught her back leg or something. Scared the crap out of my SIS they don't get that in CA LOL
Thanks Jules. Don't you also drive a Subaru? I used to drive an Outback, but I got a Forester because they sit up a bit higher off the road. This is the third time I've hit a deer badly. Thank God I've never been hurt...they are all over out here. There are elk too, and I'm grateful they have the markings that they do. Wouldn't want to hit one of those big guys.
Quote from Wishalot :
Sorry to hear about the clash with the deer. So happy you didn't get hurt. Life is so strange. Never know when things will go your way, or turn around. Hope all works out in your favor.
Thanks Wishalot. Now I'm waiting on insurance and Brandmovers. Being impatient stresses me out.

Was looking for your message over there and realized you sent a private message. I'll go ask about my prize and maybe that will get Brandmovers on it!
I didn't know how to leave a private message on facebook, until I sent the one off to Coleman last Thursday. I got a message today from Taylor (Coleman) that they were sorry for the delay and were getting in contact with Brandmovers. My last e-mail from Rebecca at Brandmovers was on Friday and said the check would be cut on Monday and sent UPS. The gal in charge of the event in Colorado was named Taylor. I wonder if this is who contacted me today. Have you gotten your camping gear, or heard from Coleman or Brandmovers about it yet?
Quote from cwhetme :
I am going to attempt to walk up to the Farmers Market 4 blocks from the house.....102* today but lots of big elm trees along the streets so its cooler. Farmers market is run by Amish folk so the crops will be good and pesticide free. Gonna stop by CVS on the way back and try to get some kind of spray on stuff for my hair to use with the flat iron I got. ( watch me win it now that I bought one!!!) I will be back later.
Someone put up a decent reminder for Marlboro for us ladies!!! Might need something to remind me to enter when I get back!!
Last night I got all excited for nothin' when the UPS truck pulled up the driveway. Turns out I won a flat iron stand from the Red Pro Titanium Giveaway on facebook. I have short hair and no flat iron. If you'd like to have it, let me know and I'll mail it to you. Smilie

I'll bet it's the same Taylor from the campout. Two of the main Coleman people there (Taylor and the PR guy Alex) were quite young, in their 20's. In my first response today, I let her know about the e-mail from Rebecca at Brandmovers. I told her I was not given a tracking number. She got back to me a second time and said, "That's great news, I'll try to get a tracking number." I sent another message saying that Brandmovers has been difficult to get in touch with and seems to be stalling. I have truly been as gracious and nice as possible throughout this, because I won an incredible prize. (Why am I having to chase it down?)
Your flat iron stand will be in the mail soon...
