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 !

Congratulations. You just won $20 Visa Gift Card. It will arrive in about 6-8 weeks. You've also been entered for a chance to win the 46" Plasma TV.
Make sure you come back in 8 hours for another shot at winning in The Dark Knight Rises Scratch & Match Game.
Congratulations on the Visa GC. Spend it on something fun.

Reason I said would be a mark on you was because you told me about SD. Anything bad I do is a reflection on you!

Thanks for the links and Congrats on all the recent wins (some of which seem Confused3 & Huh) LOL

Got an IW on mun2, M&M ( they call it "mundos") but never got congrats email. If anyone has the same prob, call Oscar with info at 1-770-985-7381. Located in CA, so allow for adjusted business hours. He confirmed win and all is good.

I have the same prob w/C today since earlier this am. Was OK for me yesterday, though.
Congratulations on the M&M win. And nice follow through.

Said when I bought this it was a white Rose of Sharon!!! Now I have no idea what it is!!! Does anyone know???

close up of the flower
Really pretty though. Is that the one you got at Walmart? Looks like it has 2 different colors. Do you have a nursery nearby? they could identify it for you maybe. Just take a flower and leaf to them.

You just taught me something. I did not know that the rose of sharon was part of the hibiscus family. hibuscus do not live here through the winter if they are outside and inside they usually do not make it because there is not sufficient sun inside. they are both really beautiful. my rose of sharons (2) are sooo big and all i do is pick up the dead flowers before they become sticky. but they are worth it. both are white. one used to be pink but just changed by itself.

The hibiscus I have was created for colder climates! Up to -25*! I will mulch it for added protection. Hoping we have kind of a cold winter this year. Way too warm last winter and summer was way too hot!
Here is a cool way to save the scent all year. http://www.ehow.com/how_4964279_e...owers.html

I think we all noticed the shenanigans going on with that contest. I voted for you every single day (because that's what FFers do), but when the other two showed up and flaunted themselves like that OMG.....well, I just told myself that maybe, this time, sanity would win out and you'd be awarded the prize. I hope Wilton comes through for you. You worked hard for that prize and deserve it.

they will probably do a randon drawing
I sent them a message on facebook but they never answered
I noticed everyone on 1st 2 pages get 100's of votes one day
someone was playing around

I explained my friends voted everyday but how the vote counts got so high had to be someone cheating even with my votes

I'm sure they wont give it to any of the top people
Thanks for keeping up
I thought it was over but seems to be accepting votes
IDK what to think
