2006 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

"Here Here" raises glass and toasts...goes and refills glass...mmmm

Ditto

If anyone is able to check the spelling of volcanic (vulcanic maybe?) it would probably be worth it

good point taken .......hmmm.

I cant belive their is this much confusion right now as to if this is the clue or not?

Still sounds like Soucheray to me.

Okay, if this is the clue, which I have hard time believing, could child's proclivities be a reference to Circus Juventas at Highland.

Dude - hard to tell if youse a funnin' re: whether the clue is fake is or not. Just in case you're being serious - it is the real deal.

Evildoer - it could be. So many possibilities.

I don't think this is the clue, because someone posted the same one as clue #4 on the pp boards.

When I was watching this last Amazing Race - Family ..I thought they were going to be coming to St Paul to go to that very school. They catch flights to MSP...but went on to Monreal :frown: ....close - but no cigar (again)

Juventas is the Roman God of youth.

Quiet in here, must all be at a lose for words.

Hey if this is the clue, besides the Fair Grounds, were there any other spots that the volcuns use to come out of the snow banks to give their speel?

Waiting for the official clue on the PP...

You know every year at the start of the hunt I always get his gut feeling that the PP is going to go out of St Paul to hide the goods.

It's one of those clues that mean something but is worthless at the same time... blah.. someone needs to smack the writer!! On that note I'm off 2 bed.. 5am comes waaay too early.

Noun 1. proclivity - a natural inclination; "he has a proclivity for exaggeration"

leaning, propensity

inclination, tendency, disposition - an attitude of mind especially one that favors one alternative over others; "he had an inclination to give up too easily"; "a tendency to be too strict"

Comon PP what is taking you so long to post the clue :chagrin:

It appears that the first half really doesn't say much, other than a set up for the second half... at first

but... in the first half they are referring about the vulcans, as they would tell it to you... BUT the second half is referring to you... So what am I missing in the first half of this???

Okay... G'night all...

Zeph, we're waiting to see if that's the real clue or not.

A garter?

Hill or slide?

I hope this isn't the clue- it doesn't chive. It goes from how some bartender got groped to where a kid would play.

Confirmed. PP is posted clue #3.

Almost in bed... ittiz the real clue... posted on PP now

It's posted at the PP. It's real, except for it's "vulcanic", not "volcanic".

oh my- it is the clue. ANyone remember what bar the volcuns got in trouble at?

Crikey, I was hoping this wasn't the clue. :frown:

The bar was Alery's.

Jello! No thoughts yet.

Things child likes to do;

sledding, skating, playground, circus juventas, como town rides, swimming, baseball, football, junior dance, make dirty diapers, rec center, archery, go to a park, smoke behind the bushes, argrivate their parents ..

anybody do the anagram solver for childs proclivities??

instead of alcohol drink apple juice, pop,

First part o'The Clue is just saying whutiz not smart; second part saying whutiz.

Joe just using past history to set up second part o'The Clue.

Alright, I'm signing off, talk to y'all tomorrow. :smile:

I did the anagram solver on proclivities and the only thing it came up with was lip victories.

Isn't there a park within view of Arleys?

Clue 3: Ewwwww!

Somewhere a 4 year old is asking his daddy what garters and mixed drinks are.

But "take up."

You "take up" hobbies, take up sports...

Horse shoes, you definitely gotta take those up to play...

Poor Shoeless Horse.

Alery's is downtown St Paul on 7th between Jackson and Robert St.

Hey green - no thoughts? I bet you'll have some by morning.

I figured that was the clue. It's part of what the Winter Carnival folks have made no secret about. Face the music, so to speak, about the issues the Vulcan's faced last year, and move forward.

I'm not sure that makes sense this hour of the night, but whatever I mean is hidden in that somewhere - between the lines perhaps?

I'm done in. Goodnight and SCDs everyone!

In the past clue 3 always gave away something that we could see in view.

All the rest of us are asking what's a proclivity?

Nite, Ter! I'm up fur a bit to noodle. Got four hours o'sleep under my belt earlier.

lol that's what I was thinking when I first saw the word...thing that sucks is that it could be a number of different things... darn those clue writers!! :pbpt:

Noun 1. proclivity - a natural inclination; "he has a proclivity for exaggeration"

leaning, propensity

inclination, tendency, disposition - an attitude of mind especially one that favors one alternative over others; "he had an inclination to give up too easily"; "a tendency to be too strict"

hey MM :smile:

where steph been?

Wheres Reg?

I'm just wondering if it's safe to start narrowing down some of the parks... or not... that's my biggest thing... blah.. didn't I say I was going 2 bed??? WTF was I thinking.. lol I'll never sleep!

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRANDY Randy Rust you big lug you!!! I actually just got of the phone with Steph about 10 minutes ago. We're getting together friday nite. Reg... I really haven't talked to him lately, but I'm sure he'll be out hunting. This is Reg we're talking about here!

I went to dictionary.com for proclivities, I had to backtrack and it talks about a prefrence, but I can't see why the PP will keep on going on about what is contained in a park. In the past, it looked like clue 3 was starting to hint things viewable within distance of the location. For Volcuns all I can think of is the bar they got in toruble at, or a fire station. For the child line, its mostly a ride (space needle, rides, zoo) or a school.
