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 !

We used to have a couple cats and had a couple of flee episodes several years ago. We used the stuff from the vet then and it worked great. I didn't do that this time. May have to if the stuff I'm using doesn't work.

Hi gang. Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I had to work and also tomorrow. Been cleaning out closets etc....getting ready for the realtor on Wedns. At least I am finding things I didnt even know I hadEEK! Feels good to get rid of sh!t...


glad you are ok....we are getting some of that much needed rain here.

I have no problems with fleas in the house cuz I keep my 2 dogs and 2 cats on Frontline. That stuff is amazingnod Years ago before this was on the market my house got fleas and they only ate me and one of my kids up! Didnt bother the other 3 in the house. Guess we had sweet meat. laugh out loud I learned to not wear white socks. IMO they are attracted to white and rub on some Avon Skin So Soft or some other smelly oil on you. Good lucklook around
Agreat solution would be to get a dog (as bait) and use the trifexis. It kills the fleas almost immediately http://www.trifexis.com/Default.a...eSupport=1

Enjoy your BBQ Smilie
Yes you did very good Smilie
If you want them in "My Music" Yes, thats where to put them Smilie seems to make sense to me LOL
Well Done, Blondette woot
Where else can I put them?

Quote from Dabble-Inn :
That's a good idea to print them, Just in case your PC blows up you'll still have em. I just printed mine too but not for entering them manually, That would suck, It'd be good for scanning later if need be, Then you could c/p when ya use em. nod
If an album requires more than one code, I am not sure if it would be correct to go back and forth and copy from the list. don't know if I would lose the first code. I never did this before. I figured if it needed more than one and I had the list in front of me then I could enter them manually. but I must be able to enlarge the print.

Thank you for all this info. I do use some Avon bug products but I don't have any Skin So Soft. I'm going to go vacuum upstairs. First, though, I'll vacuum up some Flea Killer powder so it kills whatever I vacuum up. Got a great Kirby that really picks up deep down.
I hope you get rid of them. Years ago I had to bomb my whole apartment, take off from work, take my 2 little dogs to the vet for flea baths, remove all food, cover furniture, etc. Really hard. That was before flea drops. they only had flea collars. but you can also bring them in on your shoes or pants lets on the bottom the vet said.

You CAN put them anywhere on your Computer you want, But I agree " My Music" is probably the best place Smilie

Good luck with going through all your stuff and discarding what you don't want anymore. Do you know where you are going to move after you sell your place? From pics I've seen in the past, it looks like a beautiful home.

My husband would love to have a dog. I'm just not up to having any pets because I don't want the extra work or costs associated with them.

Since our yard and surrounding areas have never been treated, I'm guessing they are infested. We don't have just a flat yard with grass. It's rocks and vines and woods--very irregular. The natural rock wall that borders the front yard must go up about 30 feet and vines cover it. I know the hummingbirds find a haven there; so I suppose fleas might, too, although I didn't even attempt to spray the wall. I'm sure we just brought them inside with us this past month.

They were pretty generous. Probably have a lot of prizes to send out. We should get them soon. (I hope).

Good Evening All You Wonderful People!!! Had a great day with youngest daughter and grandbabies we went to Hayward, WI to their Wilderness Walk grandbabies had a blast feeding the deer and goats and panning for gold LOL Had to drive through Sashquatch's town so stopped at this outlet they have and got a ton of Jerky. They had 1 1/2 pound bags of the ends they cut off which are probably an inch square fine by me bite size for $9.95 dang its a full gallon zip lock bag. So I bought 2 bags, have enough jerky for a while. Then went free shopping at daughters garden lol came home with tomatoes, Cukes, pole beans, carrots, reg. onions and green onions, canned pickles and canned salsa. Hope everyone is having a great Holiday weekend!!!!!!!!!!
