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 !

UPC and code in post #11

Won a bottle of Teas Tea $1.99 arv this morning. That's in keeping with this month's theme of only winning prizes $5 and under.

Lousy weekend
Friday-toilet stopped up-messy, then the phone charger stopped working-the wires had broken at the plug-new one coming via Ebay for $5.33 vs the $39.99 Target etc wanted.
Saturday, the car started rough-gurgling noise, louder than normal engine, steering was a little tight on the left-drove to the dealership(original) per the dealership, I should buy a new one rather than fix my 2001 Saturn L200 with 82k miles. Currently unemployed, so I am reeling. There is a recall out for my year and model car on the engine timing chain and I will call the hotline later this am, hopefully my car is one of the hundreds of thousands covered, BUT they gave me a long list of other things. They said the the steering is starting to go, but could be a while before I lose it-I only drove 3600 miles last year. When I start working, that will go up, but 1st I need a job-in the meantime, I try to only drive twice a week and stay local.

Glad to see the baby and dog pics and the jokes-I needed the smile.
Hope everyone's day goes well.
Remember to pray for Betty'C12s grand daughter Nicole and her surgery today.

Good Luck to all!
Thoughts and prayers to all.

With all your problems that is so great that you have the time to think of my Granddaughter. I am truly impressed with you and the great people on this list. You made my day a little brighter. Thanks so much.
She is currently in surgery.
I will pray for you and your issues.

I went yesterday to the consignment shop and got rid of a lot of stuff. But, he is not ready to get rid of this yet. That is the hard part. He never understood why i saved worthless useless stuff and I finally parted with most of it last year and now he is going thru that. Very hard. I have a spare room filled with boxes that I have to ship to Washington to his children of memories. And that is hard as it is very expensive to ship from the E.Coast to the W.coast and it could break. A while set of crystal stemware to his daughter for instance. I will get thru this just hate a constant constant turmoil and clutter. I started so long ago to dehoard and now this again. EEK!
Just think what shape you'd be in now had you not already decluttered so much. I suppose in ways all that action was preparing you for this.

We are going to put things back in place today after shampooing on Friday. I can't believe how good our 27-year-old carpet turned out. I think blotting it with old towels really did the trick for the dirtiest section.

When we are putting stuff back today, there is some stuff I don't want to put back in one of the bedrooms. The room looks so much better without it.

So far Isaac is parallel to the FL Keys. We are up about mid-state on the Gulf Coast. Time will tellConfused

I feel awful that Louisiana is in for it once again. Eerie as it is 7 years to the day, seven years ago, they got slammed by Katrina.Frown
