Is there anyway in mepis to add "stuff" to the K-menu?
ie. thunderbird is installed and running but I don't follow the
paths to execute it. Is there a way to shortcut it to the K-menu/Interent. . / . . ./ . . . etc?

Go to the menu and All Applications>Browse All>Apps>System>KMenuEdit
and Add. Before closing out go to File and Save to complete your new entry.
To find the executable package you can open your console and type: whereis filename. This should give you sometimes more then one location. Go to those locations and find which one is the executable file and put it's path in the command line in KMenuEdit.
Also go to /etc/menu-methods/menu-xdg and as root find
pre = "rm-rf" prefix()"/*; and add # infront of it so that it looks like this #pre = "rm-rf" prefix()"/*;
otherwise your addition in the menu will dissappear upon reboot.
