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 !

I just got an email - won last week's FX Movie - 2 Tickets - nice.

Also, Sam and I were driving on a busy road and got a phone call that he won $1,000 for the "Mommy Notes" IW that just ended. She would not talk to me so he put it on speaker phone. the $1,000 was for the school of his choice, nothing for him, and he would have to pay taxes, so we declined.
EEK! WOW. EEK! Usually, if the prize goes to a non-profit, it's donated in the winner's name, but the winner never actually gets it so doesn't have to pay taxes. I'm a firm believer in the "a win is a win" system, but this qualifies as "a win is a loss" in my book. Hiss boo to that sponsor.vomit

But congratulations on the movie tickets. Those are always fun.nod

I haven't been on Slickdeals since this am, but rec'd a phone call when I got home. It was a Coors Light marketing rep telling me that I won a 1st prize in the Coors Light Footballiday Sweeps! 2 tickets to a Ohio State University football game! ARV is $140, so this is my biggest win!

Then, Hollywood Casinos sent me a pre-opening invitation! Cocktail hour with heavy hors d'Oeuvres, free live entertainment, complimentary dinner, and of course, gambling.

It is going to be an exciting week!
I'll catch up in a few hours. Just so excited! There are groceries to put away, etc, but I can't believe it!

Good Luck to all!
Sounds like fun times on the horizon for you. When is all this happening, if you know? Big congrats on two great wins.woot

I may have misunderstood but I do not think so. I do feel bad but when I asked her she kept saying to talk to our tax advisor but we do our own taxes. So, it is done. thanks.

My doctor called me this morning. My blood test Tuesday showed that my potassium level was almost at a critical high level. So I had to go in for more blood work. When I got home there was a letter from Dole with coupons for $52 (6 months) worth of bananas.( My ex works for Dole.)

About a month ago, DmHaugland put up a list of winners for the Kingsford Charcoal Long Live Summer Contest. Looked it over to see if I had won a tshirt and realized I MIGHT be a possible winner of the 2nd place prize. So thank you to Dave, this was the 1st indication I had of it. Wouldn't have been into contests so much without the FF.

It was a few more days and a fedex truck arrived with paperwork. I did win. The prize was a Komodo Kamado and $2000....total prize value $5600.
I'm still pretty shocked/surprised. My grill was delivered today. It's a beauty!!

Here's some pics
That's a lot tile, it ought a last a long time!
