I think Joe went zoom alot as a child. All clues mean something and thats what this board is for - sharing ideas, even if they don't make a whole lot of sense (like Joe's). Pssst., Hey Joe thanks for calling us all idiots, where is your most recent contribution????...........
....thought so. Joe's email rmilles@eta.k12.mn.us.. Shall we all give one last bow down to the great one, Super Joe, for enlightening us all with his infinite wisdom.
Joe You are right! We are idiots! Just look at last year -- they told us fairly quickly that it was at Como and...it ended up..at...Como...ok, bad example. But I'm sure you have one....
This Water Cooler is a friendly place. Sit back, refresh yourself, drink of the fount of Clue Guessing Knowledge. Let's leave the attitude (and the expletives) off the web. Pursue: pure us
Maybe the capitol grounds, you can see two domes the capitol and cathedral. And didn't they have a big slide on Robert st. one year by the capitol? Clue #1 lucky one could be the big 1 on the first nat. bank. Maybe? Who knows.
I wont be able to make it out there. I was out there on my lunch break and there are Rose Bushes out there they just put them in last summer. Good luck hunting
Paula- Good research on the Rosebud tribe. You going to be at Mounds? Reed, How about you? I think Cherokee might be worth checking out -- just to see who's there.
Mr. Medallion- This WAS a nice place for us "sports" to get and share info. Why don't you and the horse you rode in on "log" off and the rest of us can get back to work being friendly and helpful! By the way, if you know where the medallion is it's worth giving up the $4,000 to see you go!
Joe, remarks like "I'm going to kill you" don't really cut it here or anywhere. If you continue to write abusive remarks towards people, I and others here will contact your school and have your email priviledges removed. It is very easy for the Pioneer Planet to trace your provider also, a detailed script shows exactly where you came from, down to the specific pc you are using. Terroristic threats are not tolerated here or any public site on the net. The Winter Carnival is fun. Searching is fun. Writing to others about something you have in common is fun. Your remarks are not fun to anyone but yourself. There are people in this forum from age 5 to 95, and we'd like to enjoy this once-a-year activity.
wright winger At the risk of incurring more death threats from our angry colleague, Prospect Terrace is very small and would be very dangerous with the hundreds of ravenous diggers clamoring to find the lode. I can not imagine the Paper would open themselves up to any liability. Along with that, they probably wouldn't hide it in (or near) newly planted rose bushes (at Mounds).
My lead is on the net - a local site. I'm not sure, but I bet we will see clues that lead to local St. Paul sites, as they are trying to promote the Pioneer Planet and others. We have registered buttons - will join with a group to search if interested. Send email if interested. I also believe the "dome" is the capitol only and Child's Road is the overlook point. I think Rosebud refers to a Chief burried at the park - the clue being "the park as a location" and "burried" - but I sure wish it wasn't underground! We nearly froze to death last year out at Como.
A bit of an aside (sorry): Does anyone have Clue No. 12 from last year? It was never posted on Pioneer Planet and I'd like to have it for my collection. E-mail it to me at saxx@execpc.com if you can help me. Thanks in advance.
For what it is worth, looking at a map, Prospect Park is in the center of Water, Wood and Delos streets. It is quite a small park without great reserves of parking that this event seems to require and it offers no sledding options. It does offer views of both the Capital and Cathedral. Mounds Park seems to meet more of the requirements, assuming that the Rosebud and zoom clues must to refer to sledding. If they don't, the Native American reference is a good back-up. And Joe, if I have somehow offended you, I apologize.
Just Got back in and wanted to thank all of you (DAVE and CK1) for getting a point across to Joe. I feel like I oppened a can of worms when I asked Joe if he went zoom as a child, but it was nice to have the support from everone else that this is a constructive place. I'm sorry I brought this back up, but I had to be herd. Thanks again!!!
Dave: You are a beautiful man. I hope this is the last piece of a puzzle that will benefit the rest of the avid diggers. You, CK1, Wright Winger, Know It All, Steve Worthman, Paula, Snowball2, and others are proving my theory that this event is one of St. Paul's greatest community showcases. The $4,000 just makes it a little more interesting. Jim Walsh is onto something with that "Clank" article he wrote, but it's the "we were in it together" feeling that most people finish the hunt with. Let's not lose that.
Pat Pfundstein - If you see this, howdy from yours at Fortis! Any ideas?? XXXOO Deb
Joe - Did you go zoom as a young child????
If you use the demo-mode analogy, try "mother" instead of "lode". Hermot could be 'hermit'. Ring a bell with anyone?
BTW- I just came back from Mounds. about 40 groups now.
Hey, the joe guy is right, they're not gonna give such obvious clues so early.

How about when the clues first pointed to Fort Snelling and Hidden Falls last year(I'm talking about a time of history)?
Can anyone come up with a rearranged word for 'pursue'?
I'LL HAVE THE GUIDE BOOK AVAILABLE FOR SALE AT "THE PARK" BETWEEN 4:30 AND 5:30.
Hey steve worthma, where exactly is "THE PARK?"
Hey Joe Medallio, go to the Hungry Mind Book store and buy the book - then find me at "the park".

Hey Joe - why don't you go through the last 100 messages and see what everyone think it means - we're not going to say it all again!
Sorry if you have to write again, but does anybody have an idea of what the medallion's hidden in?
Maybe if we ignore it - it will go away.
No I(or it) won't, stupid R C!
Where are you now, R C?! Running to tell mommy?!
ARE YOU ALL IN YOUR CARS ON YOUR WAY TO MEET ME AT "THE PARK"? SEE YA THERE. BRING YOUR $8.
The ideas about what its in is somewhere between 12 and 67. I hope this helps you JOE. The rest of us will move forward with new ideas.
Joe I think you ate one to many RETARD SANDWITCHES. You need to lighten up.
I have to say I really agree with Paula it has to be at Mounds Park.
Learn how to use a spell-checker, Wright Winger!
Maybe the capitol grounds, you can see two domes the capitol and cathedral. And didn't they have a big slide on Robert st. one year by the capitol? Clue #1 lucky one could be the big 1 on the first nat. bank. Maybe? Who knows.
reed - thank you. I have a very interesting lead, my husband and I are going out tonight, maybe we'll see you??
Good thinking, William Anderson! I am not being sarcastic this time!
Hey Paula, what is this 'lead'?
Paula,
I wont be able to make it out there. I was out there on my lunch break and there are Rose Bushes out there they just put them in last summer. Good luck hunting
Paula- Good research on the Rosebud tribe. You going to be at Mounds? Reed, How about you? I think Cherokee might be worth checking out -- just to see who's there.
Where is everybody?
For the last time, it won't be at Como, Harriet Island, Battle Creek, Highland, or Hidden Falls parks!
How small or dangerous of a park is Prospect Terrace? because of the liabilitie of the paper to ravenous hunters.
Anyone ever heard of Education Technology Alliance? heh?

Chris Palmer Excellent job on noting Water Street, Wood street ... on either side of Prospect park! I think you've hit on something obvious!
Sorry all about the Joe Medallion onslaught. I'm trying to take care of it.
Due to the profanity, we've deleted the offensive messages.
Your help is appreciated. You can post a complaint on the "Talk to PioneerPlanet" discussion area of the Water Cooler. Or
e-mail me.
Thanks for your cooperation,
