(hitting head hard...) I NEVER thought of the bathroom sink and/or the tub faucets! LOL!!! I'm so damn obtuse! I'm lucky to find my ass with both hands! I'm never going to find The Med and I don't deserve to find The Med if I can't think any better than THAT!!!

Well, Lyton (Layton?) Park's been searched. It ain't there. Took Pops and me all of like three minutes to cover the entire park... :D

Green - for real. Think of a child care center during nap time. One of the kids needs to use the toilet. She scoots into one stall while the teacher scoots into the other. The teacher couldn't believe it. Buzzed for me to come see....like I'd want to...and I went and called maintenance. They drowned the sucker and got rid of it.

Look before sitting. :-)

I ALWAYS look, and keep lid down too. However, I do this for fear of a snake! Heard about that when I was really little, and have been cautious ever since.

Well, yes now he did post it. It was Wakefield Park.

M2K? Ah, I looked it up... Ittiz "Dickerman." Would you change it please? THANK YOU!!!

And I really don't think ittiz gonna be there. Ittiz too 'urban' - no forests. I'm betting Battle Creek.

Jake's been added. Green has been updated.

Since things have settled down, I handed host access to this thread back to Med2k to keep track of it all.

Thanks THX.

And Green, the spelling change has been noted

Why add Jake if you all voted to ban him from posting anyways?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Green saying she wants battle creek?

And I really don't think ittiz gonna be there. Ittiz too 'urban' - no forests. I'm betting Battle Creek.

If he wants to contribute his $5.00, I don't have a problem with it.

It don't matter to me if he plays or not.

You guys make the call.

I thought she was just making sure of the spelling of her park, she made it seem like she's sticking with her pick even though she's betting on Battle Creek, which Ares already has. Hopefully she can clarify this when she reads it

Well, since he doesn't have access to this thread either, maybe VJ has a point.

Frankly I don't care if he gets to pick a park or not.

I was going with Dickerson - if there was snow. There was a lot of merit in Allison's (I think it was him) discussion on clues/the writing of them and possibly of two sets - one for snow, one without snow.

Without snow I don't think The Med will be in a small-ish park. I mean, it makes sense: when there's snow they usually hide The Med in something white, under the snow. If no snow, and we can't dig below ground, and all the plants are dead/brown - where/what will The Med bee hidden in? I think the woods/a woodsy place that's BIG.

So, I'll stick with Dickerson, but I don't think ittiz gonna be there. Doesn't make sense - I know! (Have I ever?) I can't take BC because Aretmis has already.

Thanks for updating me, THX!

You can take Battle Creek, in the hopes that Artemis changes it later, which would give you dibs on it.

Am I seeing things? It looks to me that Ares is the one with Battle Creek, Artemis has Cherokee

WHOOPS!!! I got my "A"s mixed up!!! But... Chair-O-Key would be a guess - after BC!

Whatever. I'm happy as long as I get to play. I'm gonna lose five smackers no matter what. It ain't me that's gonna win. I just like getting to play and making guesses!

And that reminds me... Gotta stop and pick up some beer on way home.

You don't really need to have access to this thread to play. You just need to give me $5 and pick the right park.

It's gonna be como again, so you might as well skip giving AW the money, and give it straight to me ;)

Nice JOE!!!!, Timmers.

We'll see, youngster! Iffin' The Med's at Como AGAIN... Well... I just don't know what I'll do. Guess I wouldn't mind too much - beeing at Como year after year after year - IF they change the name o'The Hunt to: The Pioneer Press Winter Carnival Como Treasure Hunt."

But, honest to gods, I don't think they'll have it at Como this year... Maybee not even for awhile. They'd be killing history. They've a HISTORY o'moving The Med around. And I think they'll keep doing it for a few years enkneeweigh.

I think ittiz cooler they're [MomPres] having this shindig Sunday for the past finders. I'm glad they're taking more of an interest in not only their history, but the history of our wonderful city. 'Bout time they did something like that, in my opinion.

History, tradition. That's what ittiz all about to me. My take/my stand/my thought.

I'm going to be out on University on Thursday, Green. Where is it that you bought your raw coffee beans?

Tue, 01/20/2004 - 5:17 PM Permalink
green

OT...

Addis Market, 1569 Sherburne Avenue.

Ittiz one (2?) block NORTH of University, a 1/2 block EAST o'Snelling, on Sherburne. Across Sherburne from Fasika. Fasika faces on Snelling. Make a right turn (east) off Snelling, and ittiz almost immediately on your left. There's two stores together... Go in the door/the store on your left. Iffin' you need it, their phone number is 651/203-0146.

ENJOY!

Thanks Green. I think I will. It's alot cheaper buying it that way than it is to buy already roasted beans at places like Caribou.

OK, Here's my guess. I understand that ESD already has Swede Hollow. But I understand also that ESD can change his vote and that then Swede Hollow is up for grabs. Well, I don't know why he'd change his vote unless it was pretty clear it was in a different park, in which case I'd have no interest in keeping Swede Hollow . . .

That being said, I have sentimental reasons for picking Swede Hollow. So I'm picking it. There you have it. I'll throw my five bucks into the pot because I'm a helpless romantic won't see his Swedish fiance until well after the hunt is over.

Also because it will be nice for someone from the crew to have a small pot to claim regardless of who finds my medallion this year!
