lmao..

damn ninja... nice joke..

Its not a dude in a speedo... its a G.I. Joe...actually to be more acurate, its an enemy of G.I. Joe, that works for Cobra...

to tell you the truth... he's not really Cobra either... he's like... in the middle.. anyhow.. he's one of the cooler ones, named "Storm Shadow"... and  the reason he's dressed all in white like that? 

He's a ninja!

WHOOOO HAAAA!!!! (breaks some boards in half, and vanishes into the darkness)

No, J, not the ninja.  Randy Orton.  I like WWE as much as the next guy, but boy, that sure was a wierd camera angle.

Is there one more mock-up before the big show?  I'd be willing to write clues and whatnot if we could collectively pony up some fabulous prizes.

on "park pics"----that it should be a either a crap shoot at midnight on New Years Eve -first post after midnight gets their park

 

OR

 

we wait til Saturday at McGoverns when the 1st clue comes out and everyone draws a number ---then they pick in that order. Say THX gets #20 and Scribe gets #1 -then obviously COMO would be chosen right away and THX has to pick a park 20th choice.

OR 1st come first serve posts at Midnight on that Saturday night 1st clue night. Cause most will be at McG's.

There are roughly 100 parks in St Paul alone. and another 100 in the Ramsey County area.  

 

Any other ideas?

I like drawing numbers at McGoverns.

I agree, and for those who can't make it to McGoverns their names can be put in too, because with a bunch of people's crazy schedules, not everybody will be able to make it there.

Then post our parks the next day in the order that was drawn.

Same here ESD, I will be done forever when the hunt rolls around, I can't wait!

And this is the last year the girlfriend won't be hunting, she's finishing this year too so won't be able to join, but I keep her up to date on what's going on. I'll introduce her to this crazy world next year for sure.

If I didn't know what you were talking about, I'd think you some sort of weirdo.

Ok, let's attack this from a different front.  I WILL be writing clues and hiding something.  First clue on the 26th.

Prizes?  How about honor? How about winning?  How about looking at the other person and saying "ah ha! I'm smarter than you."

I'll throw in a 1984 Winter Carnival poster. It's a Norman Rockwell print of two kids sledding.

Oh, good, treasure chest is in.  I'll just prepare myself now for the 90 phone calls/e-mails/im's a night to say "Where is it, bear? Just tell me! Where is it!"

Ok, officially: 4 vintage buttons, honor, prestiege, and a 1984 winter carnival poster (of which I'm especially bummed about - it would be nice to keep myself.)
