I'm not tottaly ruling Phalen out.. just kinda losing faith I guess you could say. There were a few ppl out on Round Lake on the ice looking and shoveling around and what not. I didn't want to go over there by myself tho.. lol it's dark and creepy there at night, so I stuck to the lighted path. At least if someone was coming up behind me I'd be able to see em.
lol I know I'm going out tonight after the clue comes out. I get off work at 930, I'll sit here and noodle some more, and when the clue comes out.. I'm gone.. HOPEFULLY it'll give us some more help!!
Don't encourage me, KC- you'll be scorned by others for giving me that link.
Ehh let them scorn me, I happen to like that program. Used it to make my avatar, and it seems to do a good job, as good if not better in some regards than photoshop, and you can't beat the price...
Er, thanks KT! man, this thread moves fast. I turn around to do some w**k, and I've got a bunch of posts to read! Frosti sends his regards everyone - he has lots and lots of w**k today.
Still leaves my theory in tact. If it's phalen, the clues are already spelling it out, and tonights will be enough to prove it's there, and they do want it found soon. If it isn't phalen, tonight's clue will make it less likely that it's there, and the hunt will go longer.
I like BC a little more than Phalen. Can't wait till tonights clue though. It was so funny after last night's clue, people were running out of there, then we were scoping parks and saw only like three other people.
BTW, I got a new digital camera last night at the target in North Saint Paul, perfect to drag out hunting, it's about the size of those USB thumb drives.
I'm what they call a System Status Specialist.... Basically i'm a analyst.... In charge of the whole network while most people are sleeping.
The maintenance techs in the frild report to use and we try to wage off outages....
Cold time sucks though. Cold weather causes the center conductor of the trunk lines (Bigger cables) to retract and loss contact in somecase. Well with the system like it is now, We can see that. We see when phones and modems go offline. So we can react to it.
There was over 400 outages....( an outage is more then 3 addresess).
How do they fix the problem if it's just a conductor shrinkage problem? (I know mine shrinks a little at these temps and the only thing that helps is to warm it up - heh.)
ROFLMAO oh hahaha well no.. I'm not gonna be down at the PP. I'm gonna hang out here at home for the clue I think. If it is at Phalen I'm a lot closer to it here than anywhere.
well I'm off for my napperz... laterz!! If anyone gets hungry my family owns Papa Mikes Pizza on Rice St. I'll be working tonight until 930 so if ya get an itch stop by and visit me all :)
QM I love it! You got the cutest little baby face *sings*

KT, get the GIMP, it's a freeware alternative to PhotoShop, actually open source.
http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/
works just as good ;)
My list of top ten continues to rotate...depending on how I'm interpreting clues. It's the list on rotation. Hope it narrows itself down sooner.
I was wondering why all the snow melted so suddenly, CM- I can come out of the basement now.
I have photoshop, but dont know how to work it. sigh
Don't encourage me, KC- you'll be scorned by others for giving me that link.
I have to run talk to every one at PP tonight:)

Haha true that! Compared to how cold it's been 10 DOES seem like a heat wave!

Sparky- that was awesome!
If it gets all the way up to 10, I'll have to change my tagline. WooHoo!
I'm going to step away from here for a bit. Dishes and some other household chores to get done.
Then I'll decide whether to go out scouting around Roseville alone or wait for Inks to get off work.
My son said I don't have enough ram to use it.
But he could be trying to taunt me into letting him build me a new 'puter
Er, thanks KT!
