 a bit O/T here, but is anybody else s screen wider on this post??   I keep having to scroll back and forth to read each post?
 

 Yes, it is a little wider. I think it is due to the links above.
 
 We all cannot be like Birol... BIG monitors... fancy computer stuff![:D]

birol

 jonathanBirol has that thanks to Nortel networks :) Never would spend that kind of money on a big monitor.

 jonathanA) yes my screen in wider on this one.
 
 B) We never sleep in a sleeping bag, we have one open and lay on it and use a comforter as covers, works well for us and is easy to make.  Have you checked the local sporting goods chain store?

jawilson

 jonathanWell, let s see if I can make this post even wider... [:D]
 
 Here s what I have, and it works great. But I m only 6  1"  and 205, so I m not quite as large as you are.

 jonathanHey Birol~
 
 
 I see that you edited out your comments but because other people quoted you before you edited, we can all still see at least some of what you said!!!  [;)]

PI

 Acts 2:38 girlI am also having a problem with the screen. I can t see all the words and have to move it all around. And NO it is not operator malfunction......I could just see that one coming!!!

birol

 MommaMiaI was soooooo dumb for saying that, I am ashamed of it. I know Jonathan pretyy well, and thought I would joke, but obviously it was not tasteful to do it in the forum. So I tried to undo it, but failed. Oh well . I apologize to anyone who is offended by it.
 
 It was a good try anyways eh ? Sort of a shocking joke :) I am sort of proud that I did it [:)]
 
 P.S. That was all I had stated BTW.

 That looks like the bag they sell at Wal-Mart.  Only it is $40 there.

birol, we all know the context you meant it in!  [:)]  Obviously jonathan wasn t offended, and you could tell you were only joking!!  I thought it was pretty shocking  myself, but when you wrote that you know him, it was really funny.  I joke with my friends like that all the time![:D]
 
 PS - we also have a 21"  moniter, so I don t know the prob.  It s only on this post, too.[&:]

birol

 MommaMiaYou are such a nice person Acts 2:38 girl (Could you please change your nick to something easier [:D]? , it is killing me to type it like this [8D][8D][8D][8D]).
 
 Some people were complaining of the same horizontal scroll  issue with a post of mine, and asked me to shorten the subject line, maybe that s it ? it doesn t look long to me though ....

wiininkwe

 jonathanI think it s wider because he s so tall.

 Nebo Behemoth Sleeping bag - fits a  family of 4, 100"   by 100"  on sale for 89.97
 
 I just posted it in Bargains before checking out this forum.
 
 The link will take you to the sales page.  The bag was at the bottom right last I looked.

 MommaMia100 X 100 wow that is a big bag.   I don t know about a family of 4 though.  That is only 25 inches each, unless you put one person down by everyone else s feet.[:D]

 jonathanWe also got our king size bags from L.L. Bean and we love them.  They are soft inside and are a little bigger than the king bed in our Coleman.  Plenty, plenty of room.  We only use them in really cold weather when we are not using the furnace.  The rest of the time we make up the bed with knit sheets and a quilt, as the sleeping bags are way too warm.
