Go into your preferences Bergie.

Funk & Wagnalls.  Isn't that a dictionary?  I think it was part of a punch line from "The Laugh In Show"

Wasn't that the porch that Johnny Carson's Carnac character stored his predictions in a hermetically sealed mayonnaise jar since noon today? ;-)

Okay...just got home from work and heard Jake, Ken and Mark all call in to Garage Logic about the treasure hunt and the movie. Actually Jake just called to be a pain in the ass, and then Ken and Mark called in to comment on the movie. Joe was perplexed as to why the flurry of phone calls. Who are Ken and Mark?

Also, I received my acceptance letter on Saturday for the Winter Carnival Art Exhibit so be sure to go down the Landmark Center and check it out! Plus, just for being accepted I guess, after it's over they're giving me $50! Sweet!

Good quote Kitch, maybe THAT should be our Cooler Crew window cling....

Nice.  Will definitely put it on my viewing list

Who are Ken and Mark?

Mark might be me2's hubby but not sure if he's in town right now or not.  Not sure on Ken.  Hell, it could be one of us and I'd never have a clue.

I thought that it might be me2's husband also, but yeah, I'm not sure if he's in town

I still don't know half the peoples real names. I just know them as their Cooler names.

Darn.  I just got in myself and I usually listen to Joe but still have the car radio on KFAN.  That's what I was listening to while we were still in the play-offs.  What did Joe have to say about the documentary?

I havent caught garage logic in a long time.... usually just at the fair and stuff, we'll stop and listen to the live broadcasts and whatever.....  call me weird, but my show to listen to on talk radio, is Coast to Coast

Mon, 01/17/2005 - 2:51 PM Permalink
Big G

I love Coast to Coast, I used to listen to it when I worked overnight stock at Kohl's, it kept me awake...I love when they have the ghost hunter people on and stuff.

Joe wasn't aware that there was a movie and he was like, okay, that sounds interesting

Mon, 01/17/2005 - 2:55 PM Permalink
NoTimeForColdFeet

Joe knows about the movie.  So does the Rookie.  Yes, that was Jake who called in.  I think the "Ken" guy might have been "Diggorius" and I'm guessing that "Mark" was "First-in-line Mark" who's always first in line with "First-in-line John."  Of course, I didn't hear the bit, and this is pure conjecture based on third-hand information (I'm sounding like the government).

Joe "playing dumb" about the movie confirms ????????

tim_the_hunter

Not that we needed further confirmation, but yeah.

Mon, 01/17/2005 - 3:34 PM Permalink
Big G

THAT'S who it was....I'm like....I know I met Ken last year, I just couldn't remember who he was on the threads...Diggorius Rex. Okay cool. Yeah, Joe went up and down about how he doesn't write the clues and all the same old spiel. He did mention something about how he found this cool park that would be a great place to hide it, way too small though, as far as parking goes for the masses. Mentioned stuff about F. Scott Fitzgerald, Selby/Dale, and a bunch of other things in that area of town.

Yeah, he's almost as bad at keeping his secret identity as Jake is.

Mon, 01/17/2005 - 3:47 PM Permalink
Big G

Jake doesn't want a secret identity, he wants everyone to know who he is. I've never heard a worse radio interview. I'm surprised Joe didn't hang up on him sooner than he did. "So....did you know the clues start on Sunday?" DUH you idiot, he works at the paper.

Yes, Diggorious is Ken. It did sort of sound like him.

Trent, you are 100% on JS?? I am shocked.

Mr. Med Hunter, will you bring a copy of your book to the pre-dig gig for me?

Diggorious, I love that guy! we had breakfast with him a few years ago remember?

I've known Diggorious Rex for a while now and never knew his name was Ken. Interesting.

ESD - I heard you graduated. Congrats to you. And, you are a dad!! Even bigger congrats. Lots changes in one year.

Timmers, just for you, I am sort of taking a break for the next few weeks. I have a paper due, but am trying to put it off.

I always thought your name was Timmy.  Weird

I'm very impressed by Mape Gui's new hunter guide, though I hate that his cd is not Mac compatible. I'll have to buy one at the pre-dig. It will be fun to play spell check.
