Ian! You BETCHA!!! My java's brewing now. Kind'a slept in 2day, what with staying up until 4:00 AM... YIKES! The Hunt's afoot! Just as I was about to toddle last nite, I had a profound awakening and got a good handle on Clue One... I forgot to post it and now I can't remember what it was!!!! (The 'Crew gives a HUGE collective sigh o'relief...)
Ian, we got t-shirts last nite, but you can still get one... I need to make a list o'those that didn't so I can see that they do. (green make note to self.) We MISSED you last nite!!!
I saw that Mom asked... You WILL Bee bringing your Sloppy Joe Medallions to the Re-Hash Bash, won't you?
Gotta take a poll here:
If you were out Digging - during The Hunt - and you unearthed a bunch o'leaves all taped together, what would YOUR first instinct Bee?
You, Mom & Dad, MJ & TT, and Ian gotta get and sign releases fur the kiddies if they're gonna be out with you Digging. I wish I'd thought o'that last nite...
And don't we need to get Tyler a tee? (And gotta put down Ian's boys...)
I guess I'll hafta sign one fur Pickles incase I bring him...
NL, ittiz NEVER too early to noodle what park The Med's gonna be in! I think there are some very important things in #1 that will mean more later. One thing that gets me that "Keep on your toes" speaks/reads kind'a awkward in those two lines.
"Gold" kind'a gets to me. Usually ittiz "loot," "prize," "treasure," etc. Gold is awfully dang specific, when ittiz not really gold, but a blue plastic puck (NOT A BLACK RUBBER SIOUX CITY HOCKEY PUCK!) that you turn in for cash. And cash izz not usually referred to as "gold."
Hhhuummm...
I do think we've got a miffed Doofy Clue Writer(s), tho! LOL!!! Sounds like he's got a teeny chip on his shoulder... Reads, "Okay, wise-acres! I'll show YOU!"
Good Morning all! 3:00am!!!!!!!!!! Geez don't you crazy people EVER sleep??? Save your energy for later this week!! My take is that we are not going to figure out the park so ealy this year and we will be "noodling" on here for a while. Of course you all know that I will figure out the park first and be digging there waaaaaaaaaaaaaay before anyone else............course it will be the wrong one,but hey at least I will have a park!
I like how the first letter in each line spells "GOOD LUCK"....i dont know if this is a sence of humor or what....what i do know is the last time this style was used is in 95...battle creek is the park to be exact.....
the first thing i thought about the "keep on your toes or youll hunt till june thing is Basketball....have to stay on your toes, and NBA finals are in june...but that is too far fetched
Just looking back at some past clues and in 92 and 93 park is never mentioned and in 95 and 96 it wasn't until clue #2, I don't think we should read too much into it's absence in clue #1 this year.
I have narrowed it down to four parks...i hope the clue has to do with somthing in or near park tonite...and tommorrow somthing in the distance.....i need to elimanate 3 of my 4 by tuesday
Scribe, how will you relate that to any park....other than mabye rice park.....i know its not there, the fountain is fenced in.....where do you think it is?
Good Morning Everyone! Just wanted to stop in and say "thanks". What a great pre-hash bash. It was so nice to finally meet some of you people. See you out in the park!
ok i guess we will see in a few days.....i think it is ok to sit back and wait if this was a month long hunt....but in all reality it is only 7-10 day hunt....have to get idea off the bat and stick with it till somthing tells you otherwise.....i start to dig after clue 3 and i hate just digging wildly.....gotta know where to dig!!!!!
This is what I am saying 27. Save your energy,get some sleep.Come Wednsday you"ll be ready and won't dig up the wrong park. Take it from someone who's done it!!!!!!!!
Are you telling me i havent done that?? last year i sat around till 4 then went to linwood for a day and a half.....arived at newell morning it was found.....lame hunt.....99 i spent first 4 days at phalen and highland.....lemme ask you this....HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU FOUND IT?
You aint gonna find it sitting at home wating for the park to become clear as heck....you have to do the work before somone beats you to it.....work, work, work...eat, sleep, work, work, work, bathroom, work, work, eat, nap, work, work.....what is the pattern here?
goodnight, not much to do with the clue yet
"Now I lay me down to sleep;
I pray The Med, well hidden, will keep.
If It Bee found Beefore I wake,

If you were out Digging - during The Hunt - and you unearthed a bunch o'leaves all taped together, what would YOUR first instinct Bee?
A) Crunch them up
B) Ignite them
C) Smell them
Mornin! It was good seeing you last night Green!! What about Battle Creek? But I suppose that's TOO obvious at this early stage, ey?
Hey Crewe!
Sounds like a hoot last night!....
Be careful not to interpret Clue #1 too specifically, it would be the first time more than 1 idea is givien away...
That said, what a frickin' LONG first clue!!!!
Rock on Pioneer Press, you Orwellian, Anthropoid, Clue-Givin' Party Ape of a daily newspaper!
Disappointed that the hunt is earlier this year, always like the fact that it makes the 'boring' part of winter seem shorter...
Peace - Hollywood over & out
Joe!
Narthern! Was YUST thinking about chew!!!
You, Mom & Dad, MJ & TT, and Ian gotta get and sign releases fur the kiddies if they're gonna be out with you Digging. I wish I'd thought o'that last nite...
And don't we need to get Tyler a tee? (And gotta put down Ian's boys...)
I guess I'll hafta sign one fur Pickles incase I bring him...

Izz boxing an Olympic sport?
I got one o'them palamino Joes!!!
Good Morning all! 3:00am!!!!!!!!!! Geez don't you crazy people EVER sleep??? Save your energy for later this week!! My take is that we are not going to figure out the park so ealy this year and we will be "noodling" on here for a while. Of course you all know that I will figure out the park first and be digging there waaaaaaaaaaaaaay before anyone else............course it will be the wrong one,but hey at least I will have a park!
I agree green its never too early to noodle....look at last year....people sat around till 3 or 4 and they got left behind!
Boxing is an olympic sport.
I think there is two definate clues that are useful here....other stuff is trying to confuse us and throw us for a loop....
I like how the first letter in each line spells "GOOD LUCK"....i dont know if this is a sence of humor or what....what i do know is the last time this style was used is in 95...battle creek is the park to be exact.....
Careful 27,this maybe a hodge podge of old styles used in the past.Wouldn't that be a kick?????????
the first thing i thought about the "keep on your toes or youll hunt till june thing is Basketball....have to stay on your toes, and NBA finals are in june...but that is too far fetched
Just looking back at some past clues and in 92 and 93 park is never mentioned and in 95 and 96 it wasn't until clue #2, I don't think we should read too much into it's absence in clue #1 this year.
The first thing I thought of when I read "keep on your toes" is ballerinas.
I have narrowed it down to four parks...i hope the clue has to do with somthing in or near park tonite...and tommorrow somthing in the distance.....i need to elimanate 3 of my 4 by tuesday
Is there a park in St.Paul that is designated especially for ballet?
Scribe, how will you relate that to any park....other than mabye rice park.....i know its not there, the fountain is fenced in.....where do you think it is?
"place for the gold" HMMMMMMMMMMMMM PIRATES?????????
Pirate ballerinas?
LOL that would make for one ugly dancer.....lol
"much tougher duel" Hmmmmmmmmmm,Fencing perhaps. What park pertains to fencing ballerina pirates?
"Secret item" is there a red light district near this park?
Hey 27 I'm only joking!!! You gotta have a little fun with this too!
This is only the first clue.Take deep breaths with me okay?
BREATHE IN......
BREATHE OUT.............
BREATHE IN.............
AND HOLD IT................
Wise Guy!
Caa n't po st I ca n't brea the........
Good Morning Everyone! Just wanted to stop in and say "thanks". What a great pre-hash bash. It was so nice to finally meet some of you people. See you out in the park!
So scribe, you never gave me your ideas at to which parks the loot is in...
Whooooooooooooooooosh!!!!!!!!!!!!
I told you 27 it is only the first clue,I think we can narrow it down from Ramsey county to St.Paul.
Morning Mr.Med!
ok i guess we will see in a few days.....i think it is ok to sit back and wait if this was a month long hunt....but in all reality it is only 7-10 day hunt....have to get idea off the bat and stick with it till somthing tells you otherwise.....i start to dig after clue 3 and i hate just digging wildly.....gotta know where to dig!!!!!
sup med.
This is what I am saying 27. Save your energy,get some sleep.Come Wednsday you"ll be ready and won't dig up the wrong park. Take it from someone who's done it!!!!!!!!
Are you telling me i havent done that?? last year i sat around till 4 then went to linwood for a day and a half.....arived at newell morning it was found.....lame hunt.....99 i spent first 4 days at phalen and highland.....lemme ask you this....HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU FOUND IT?
Nevermore 27,nevermore! That is why I'm only a expert at saving energy not finding the bleeping thing!
You aint gonna find it sitting at home wating for the park to become clear as heck....you have to do the work before somone beats you to it.....work, work, work...eat, sleep, work, work, work, bathroom, work, work, eat, nap, work, work.....what is the pattern here?
