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 !

Maybe with medical info they may be more lenient? Worth a try maybe to try to postpone it. Do not fret. Your life is worth way way more than a trip. thinking of you. heart

Poor people in the North East and Blondeey!!! Just saw where you guys are getting 2-21/2 feet of snow. Boston getting 3' with 50 mph winds!!! Bet you all are really sympathizing with Dabbs now!!! Winter hasnt really hit here at all this year yet. Hit 70's the other day!
May miss me. Hoping. Sam has been working out on the bay and the winds were really bad here the other day. He said it almost blew them off the dock when one strong gust came. The gutter next door was ripped off during Sandy and was swinging around near our boat on that side of the yard. It now swung it to the front of the house which is good. That house is now empty. they lost it about a month ago and vacated. The wife has MS. she took fertility drugs when they first moved it and they have a beautiful 8-yr old daughter. After she gave birth the MS became really bad. she has been in a hoverround for over a year now. So the bills for the medical and she had to stop working created a financial crisis. I did not find out about the foreclosure until about 5 months ago when they started moving stuff out. Her poor sister has maybe 4 children of her own, her mother (their mother) moved in after the father died, and now these 3. I do not know what kind of a house they have but there are pretty big homes in the area where they moved near here. So i worry with that house vacant now.
I feel bad about your trip. If there is anything you can do to get something from it, you are the most able person to get it. Hope it works out for you some way. Sorry.

Do they have actual plans for the NYC visit ? or are they just cutting you loose ?
The only plans I have seen is our flight schedules and the bus trip to the BIC factory in Milford. I just replied with my confirmation and dietary and handicap restrictions. Waiting to hear how they feel about those!

Daisy is better. I think it was her back as she is having trouble getting up the stairs. she has such little tiny skinny legs and feet and a long body and those big ears.
I hope she's doing ok
Quote from bornblondeey :
Just got a Twix. I hope she stays better. The last 2 days I was beside myself with fear. How she could get so sick so fast is frightening. Thank you. Now I had so much coffee I am not tired but I do not really want to stay up late and ruin tomorrow. I have a lot to do.
Congrats on Twix
Quote from bornblondeey :
thanks.
also just won Purina Love for Pets Match Dog food bag and can and then Shout color catcher package of sheets. so my coffee drinking earlier paid off a little. Most I have won in a month except for Twix.

Good Morning Peeps

I forgot to mention since I've been so busy but I won $200 on my Superbowl bet.

NEWS
A 9-year-old girl who was impregnated when she was 8 has given birth to a healthy girl weighing nearly 6 pounds in Guadalajara, Mexico, authorities say.

Police are seeking the 17-year-old father, who fled two months ago, when the girl realized she was pregnant, Lino Ginzalez Corona, spokesperson at Jalisco State Prosecutor's Office, told ABC News.
News reports say the youngest mother on record is a Peruvian girl who was 5-years, 7 months old when she delivered a boy by C-section in 1939.
Congrats on win
