Marnin', 'Heads!

I'm definitely believing the paths belong to the frozen water, like KT.

And *I* think the old grumpy man's Don.  You can bet he'd be p!$$ed about that stupid do-nut.  Sheesh!

Where's Newbie?  Seen the movie, Newbie?  It was COOLER!

they do drain them. however, any rain or snow melt that happens after they're drained is fair game.

Sorry to interupt noodling.....

Due to "childish" behavior in the coolertimes chat room.... I've locked it.

The password is secretcooler.

If you guys have ANY problems with anything you tell me. Tell me what you need, tell me what you want.. just let me know.

Some people obviously didn't get it when I said don't be an A-hole.

Kitch, I don't think Newbie's that-one-person.  Nope.

Man, I hope not.  Newbie's my hero and if that-one-person's... 

Never mind!  EEEEKKKK!!!

I think Phalen is still definitely a possibility. Hidden Falls could be too. Como, Indian Mounds, and Swede Hollow all fit. Mears and Kellogg fit, but I don't think they're too likely. I'm not inclined towards Crosby. Battle Creek I'm a little less inclined towards though it could certainly fit if my hunch about historical items/markers is wrong.

Ok- Snowblower's fixed. (until next year's hunt that is)
So, I'll see you in a couple of hours. Gotta use it now :)
Morning, dear, lovely, sweet Green.

It's ok... as much as I try to ignore it... I do have to say... I find it comical that the only place you find Eric hanging out is in the coolertimes and in the peoples forum.

Cooler Land.... How about that...

I think that itself says it all.

If you guys find people to join us here in the cooler then great. As much as it sucks we can't share things with the rest of the hunters I feel the need to protect our ability to enjoy the hunt as well.

The resources are locked with the same password.

It was quite comical when I called in to Joe Soucheray and ragged on Jake about his shower comment a couple years ago.  We all dug up Loring Park last night and found nothing!

Green -  If Newbie is Jake, its news to me.  I am only aware that those guys write under snake and snodgrass ... and now me, well hopefully no one will kick me on here!

Hey Eric, I was over at Como this morning and could've sworn I saw you in the frog pond...

What other park has as much frozen water, and as many trails, as Phalen?

COMO!

Ally - Your betting St Paul already, huh?

Yes, I think so. I think the "(usually)" in the Ask the Cluewriter thing was more likely referring to last year than this year. And it's just a feeling.

Allison, WHY snot Battle Creek? Don Ho's there and CHRISTMAS and "Ho, Ho, HO!"

Because I hate country music and I won't do the two step. Although if I was wrong about historical markers, then it certainly could be there.

Green - If Newbie is Jake, its news to me.

It's definitely Jake. Just slog back a few days and he says so.

You get VOD for free when you have digital service.

After that...your pool of selections like movie channels or discovery and such all depend on what you subscibe to in the first place.

There are tons of movies and shows on there that are free and then of course you have access to VOD pay per view for the newer release movies.

Eric...your legs got all wet because you were peeing on the frog again! I keep telling you there are repercussions to nasty behavoir!

I've always thought that along the creek at BC would be a good spot to hide it if there were no snow, it's a huge area and there are lots of wooded areas and such.  If the clue tonight said "its withing 30 paces of battle creek" this thing could still go 12 clues easily.  I can't remember if there is some ice on the creek or not, maybe near the sides there is.

Hey yall - just popped in to say Hi! and say from the little slogging I have been able to do - sounds like the PDG was a lot of fun!  Sorry I missed it.  Sat. I was (being Stupid) and decided to try to surf a full cart of soda in a walmart parking lot and messed up my ankle pretty bad... lesson learned.


Saw the 'answers' from the clue writers - One of mine made it in there - and they used my name in the rhyme (as lame as a rhyme as it was) but I am a dork - so I think it's pretty cooler.

Of course, I asked: "Why are you such a dummy poo poo head?".

I thought it was a valid question.
