When the guy that I'm telling it to, happens to be someone that I was friends with for 15-16 years, and decides that its cool to come onlineto a chat forum, and talk about stuff, that no one else really knows what happened.

Maybe not a pastry at all, but lutefisk.  That will keep the varmints away!

Now that there is atleast snow, what are the odds that it might be in a Roseville park? Central park is huge and there are lots of plaques with references to Winter Carnival royalty. In 2003 I was convinced that the medallion was hidden in Materion park in Roseville. I put Materion into an etymoloy search and it is a synonym for medallion. You could see the capitol dome. Everything seemed to fit. But alas, it was Como. I would be interested to hear other people's thoughts on this.

It would certainly fit the mold of the last couple of years as far as size. Harriet, then Como for the last two and Phalen. How many times has it been hidden outside of St. Paul proper? I know it was hidden in W. St. Paul one year. On a side note, has anyone picked up that History of the Medallion Hunt book at Micawber's yet? I am curious how in depth it goes.

Well that was Sad.

 

Nick, I for one, think that you should just keep what happened between clowns between clowns.  I've had a friend-breakup before, and there's no winners one way or the other, despite whether or not you think you're right - everybody's wrong.  So, take the high road.  It hurts more to start but years later you feel a lot better.

"Take the high road" - We may have to rename Redbear to Greenbear if he starts quoting Denny Green. I remember him saying he was taking the high road when he left Minnesota.

ME2, We missed you!

thank you for thinking of me -

we have been up since 4 am-
update: Jackie is just out of surgery and the next 24 hours is critical - she had lots of calcium deposits on her heart that the doctor didnt expect. She needs to pull through without a heartattack or stroke in the next 24 hours. She had a valve replaced with a metal one- I NEVER knew how intense this type of surgery really is- I cannot comprehend a human beings body handling such injury as opening the chest cavitiy! I recently saw it on ER and just cant believe it!

---Abbot Northwestern supposedly does roughly 6 heart surgeries a day x 7 days = 42 a week! x 52 weeks = you do the math -over 2000!

when you venture out of the realm of St Paul it is scary.

Long Lake regional is huge as well - they do shut it with a gate at night.
