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 !

Which train offers the world's longest rail ride?
You Answered: Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express
CORRECT!
Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express
How's this for epic? The world's longest train journey, a ride on this train spans 6,000 miles, 2 continents and 8 time zones! Equipped with plush red-velvet seats, champagne-topped tables and TVs in individual rail cars, it offers a seamless journey between East and West. Take a 21-day trip toward Beijing, or enjoy shorter excursions to destinations in Mongolia, Kazakhstan or the Russian city of Vladivostok
Monday - won from the Go Green Giveaway ($49 toy); lost my coupon wallet and my cosmetic bag (filled with hundreds of dollars in gift cards), but was unaware until the next day
Tuesday - reached into my purse and realized my coupon wallet was missing; ran to Walgreens, the last place I'd shopped, and they had it for me at the register. Got home and searched for the cosmetic bag, but didn't find it. I called the store; they could't find it.
Wednesday - won a bag from Earthbound Farms giveaway and a skincare product ($33) from a Facebook wall giveaway. In the mail I received a $50 gift card to an online store (I won it a few days prior on a blog giveaway), and FedEx delivered a cat scratcher ($50) from a blog giveaway (my cats immediately started scratching on it).
Thursday - woke up to a text that I won from Birds Eye Dinner Made Easy Sweeps ($50 + 5 free product coupons). Also got a call from my vet that my cat has liver problems. Likely hepatic lipidosis, which can't be diagnosed without an ultrasound and/or a biopsy. However, if it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, it's a duck - no tests necessary to determine if its a duck. This is the 2nd time around with this disease, but with a different cat. While I knew what to do, panic ensued. I'm okay now, but this is a death sentence if you leave it in the hands of traditional veterinary medicine.
Friday - won a $150 gift certificate to EuroStyleLighting.com (so psyched about this!). Also went to a grocery store I'd been to on Monday and asked if they had a lost and found. When I told the girl what I'd lost, she pointed and asked, "is that it?" All the contents inside the cosmetic bag were intact, including the gift cards. Earlier, I'd gone to the Starbucks site and reported my two registered cards as lost, so the new ones should be here soon.
I haven't entered any sweepstakes since Thursday; I will have tons to catch up on when I'm a little less frazzled. I just hope I get no bad news this week - twice in one week is enough to last awhile.
