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 !

Hi Friends,
It seems to me that all the former "Marlboro Heavy Hitters" are active in this Lounge forum but not active in the current Marlboro "Biggest Night of the Year" contest forum over on Contests and Sweepstakes. A bit disconcerting.

It seems that Marlboro has intentionally withheld the actual rules for the "Biggest Night of the Year" VIP contests other than the rules for week one. I find no real conjecture of the week two VIP contest, what may be required and what the rules may be. At least Marlboro finally did post the "title" of the weeks two thru whatever on the site. Just not any rules nor any conjecture on what is going to be asked of the participants.

I think this contest may actually be more difficult than other Marlboro contests and yet my learned friends are not posting in the "Biggest Night of the Year" forum. Why? Sometimes I am good or even great with Marlboro's contests, but this one has me getting concerned.

This cowboy may well need a buddy or two in the near future over on the other forum,.

I am having trouble logging into Marlboro. I need to call "Peggy". As for the other forum, I have no time to come out and play with my FF friends as it isFrown I wish you good luck cowboyWink

I had suggested putting a couple captures on the desktop as a temporary thing, so that we could take you through learning the snippet and putting it in a post here in the ff.......on a step by step procedure.

One step at a time, jumping around isn't gonna get anywhere. Let me know when you have time.
i will. thanks so much. i have to leave now again.

Hey veasie, I talked to Kyle the other day, told him I canned peppers.... he asked if I was going to make mustard/pepper relish. I forgot !!! I got a jar and the recipe from his boss last year... good stuff ! I can use up a lot of peppers with not as much work !!

If you dont want a bunch of stuff on your desktop put them in folders.
Right click on the desktop and choose to create a new folder. You will be allowed to name your folder as to what you want to put in it. Drag and drop the stuff in it you want. You can make several and drag and drop all the folders into one folder so you only have 1 item on your desktop if you want.

If you dont want a file folder on your desktop you can change the way it looks by following this guide. You can download other options if you dont like the stock optionns

I know this was to Cindy, but you drag it from the desktop to the folder, NOT from paint to the folder.

Follow thru with sprok, and learn how to get it on your desktop. Then as Cindy said, you can drag it across your desktop to your folder.
