Retired: Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

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 !

Surprise winning e-mail!
I think that I am a 2nd (or 3rd) chance winner since the contest ended on January 7th and SD'ers in the contest forum posted receiving wins in November.

"Congratulations on being chosen as a week 18 winner of the UPS Football Logistics Challenge!

You have won a COOLPIX L810 (Black)"

I asked for an acknowledgement that they have rec'd my confirmation e-mail. I am "guardedly excited". This is a much fancier digital camera than the COOLPIX that I bought a year ago last Christmas.

Good Luck to all!



Congratulations on this win and on the Camel! It must be the day for FF'ers to check on our e-mails!

Good Luck to all!

Congrats on the camera another nice win for the FF

Thank-you for the congrats!
I've been trying to win a camera for 4 years. Gave up and bought one the Christmas before last (replaced one over 10 yo). IF this one comes, then Mom will get the other one. She's excited and nervous (she is still using film cameras and won't touch mine-that will change this weekendWink). There were many other prizes, but I feel very lucky that I didn't win the I-Tunes GC, $149.99 cooler, event tent, etc.
.
Now to win a TV! My current one is at least 25 years old (but it works!).

Good Luck to all!
I actually like my 35mm camera, nothing like getting pics you can handle and put in a photo album... without having them converted. We have 2 digital cameras we use, have one big $$ one we don't, and have 2 I won still in the box

I have this one http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Product.do?sku=C11CB86201&BV

Usually only print in black with this ink: http://www.amazon.com/Remanufactured-T1271-Capacity-Cartridges-WorkForce/dp/B00916V66Q

The "remanufactured" (refilled) color cartridges are unreliable in my experience so I use OEM for those.
I think I read about that one..actually had the best reviews on the machine.. but everyone was bitchin that it was an ink slut

It is more of an ink hog than the HP I had before, thus the el cheapo ink.

The one big complaint I have is if the machine decides one of the ink cartridges is empty it will not print at all until that cartridge is replaced - it uses individual color cartridges. So if one of the colors goes empty the machine is completely down until it is replaced.

So here is my 2 kind of wins today. I had used my nfl shop $50.00 gift code to buy 2 gifts and paid the difference I had to return one of the items and they sent me a credit of $34.00 that I paid for that Item but put it back on the original gift code. I called them and told them I had already deleted it and they said they would send me a new code so I have waited about 3 weeks and just got the new code but they gave it for the full $50.00 so that was cool.

Then I wanted to get my hair professionally colored as the bottle job just isn't doing it for me anymore but couldn't afford a hair salon. So someone mentioned the cosmetology school here at the campus so made appt. for today. Got the best haircut I've ever had the color is perfect and not a grey to be seen. I also got a eye brow and lip wax and guess how much? $18.00 (well I did tip her another $10.00 but what a price!!!!!!

No 35mm camera, she's using the disposables!
