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 !

Why wouldn't you use the boat this year??
Just read an article today (they have written many) that they located 1,070 sunken boats in the bay and there are still 325 at least down there. There are roofs, household furniture, whole sheds, all kinda stuff. They have hired a Florida based company who has been extensively trained to electronically search and remove such items. However, as the water and tide moves, so do objects down there. And they are only cleaning out the channels, not the whole bay. they say you must travel at "no wake" speed which is very slow, as you know. They further said that it is the smaller boats I guess like mine that will sustain most of the damage if we hit something and we could get hurt. So I will just wait and see. Sam works on the bay daily so he can see as the spring/summer comes what boaters are doing.

anyone with the OWTW Samsung netbook my friend needs help
her keyboard does not function, any ideas?
idea - i never use that keyboard. bought a separate wireless one when i first won it. If your friend buys one, make sure it can be returned or try it there to make certain it is only that keyboard. Good idea? Edit - I guess get a wireless mouse as well. If they do not work then it is the computer.

Wow, That's a lot of sunken boats, I can't imagine the feeling of being out there and looking down and see a sunken boat. I've been heavily shopping for another boat and haven't found anything around here so I expanded my search to all over the country. Found one in Florida I like but I need to be very careful about boats on your side of the country. I'm sure people are buying and selling salvaged boats from Sandy.

Probably are. I don't know if they have to say they sunk on the title like with a car saying it was in a flood or not. They could clean them up really good but the motor could be all screwed up.the weirdest sight was when we first went over the bridge to the island after the storm when they first allowed us to. it was a while after the storm too - so some time passed. There is a nice marina only selling new boats at the other end of the bridge (it is a pretty long bridge) right before you get to the island and all their boats (mostly the same only different sizes) were all lined up under the bridge before the water starts at the beginning of the bridge (opposite end) sitting haphazardly in the marshes. Big boats. All dark blue and white just different lengths. Took them a while to get them out of there. i don't know if they got them with a crane and closed the bridge or how as the marsh is quite a ways from the water. So be very wary. Also, the marina where we bought this boat is on my side of the island and they said in the newspaper it took a few weeks to locate all of theirs and they finally did. and these boats were all on dry land on both marinas. really something.

She's not missing much, but I'm not a fan of chain pizza. We got ours last night, they were just ok ... but much better than that cardboard from Dominos
