If you're convinced Jake and Rob cheated but you're the only one, what does that make you? Jakeophrenic? Brassanoid?

I like the little medallion hunt game. Silly little 8 bit looking thing, but the little 8bit hunters are cool.

Went for a walk today in a nearby park to get some fresh air and remind my lungs what this next week will be like. Anyway, didn't think anything of it at the time (and still don't) but my curiosity has the best of me now. Just a minute ago a read a reference (a joke, I'm sure) to black helicopters. What's the significance?

I hunted for years and years with my family but have been out of state for a while. Now I'm back and a bit rusty. Looking forward to hunting this week.

Thanks AW for the kind words on the PP board. Its a shame that we even need to stick up for each other over there but I appreciate your effort.

I just don't feel like posting over there and trying to defend my/our selves because no matter what I say it will never be believed.

I would never cheat at anything I do in life, I have worked hard for everything I have earned and will always continue to do so.

We know you would never cheat. I think people have too much time on their hands to spend so much time dreaming up conspiracy theories.

My friend who worked in the newsroom for 25+ years never came up with all the crap that one chick on the PP boards did about early clue releases and the like.

I have to say I've livid about all this conspiracy thing around DDYs funeral and the fact the PP allowed the retired medallion be placed with him in the casket. It makes me sick to think that people have the balls to do that with someone and some event like a funeral.

Not sure if everyone saw this, its not a big deal but it's kinda fun.

The medallion was hidden in the (plastic bag/cellophane/pioneer press bag/I'm not even sure what it officially is) with the Pulitzer Prize copied image on top. I have it in a baseball card protector to make sure it doesn't become damaged over the years.

Your award has hung on the wall since the day you gave it to me and will for many years. It's part of my medallion shrine if you will...

It wasn't my award, it was awarded to you from the Cooler Crew. I just had the privledge to make it and present it on behalf of the Cooler Crew.

At any rate, I was happy to see it hanging there and get great satisfaction seeing that you appreciate so much. :cool: :cool: :cool:

The Poodler is an enemy from Final Fantasy VII. Unlike most other enemies in the Sunken Gelnika, it is rather weak with relatively low HP and only two attacks, a physical and a Fire attack. It is not a threat, but it drops rare X-Potions and can be morphed into a Speed Source.

The CW has mentioned poodles twice now. In the 2009 hunt as well.

Clue 7

Published on January 24, 2009

'Neath King and Court, they once did cavort

As though living in times quite feudal

But time brings change, so it's not so strange

To see an owner walk his poodle

hmm cw probably owns one..

Certainly has some affinity for them or against them...

I assumed that his use of 'POODLERS' was intended to be a commentary on 'NOODLERS'. My initial thought was that he was meaning that it could be a bit of a 'brute force' hunt this year, rather than one that rewards finesse.

God I hope it's NEVER at Arlington/Arkwright (dogpark). Been there twice...

First we brought our dog there to run, it seems a lot people in the hood have pit bulls who are not very well socialized. Secondly it seems not many people clean up after their dogs. POOP EVERYWHERE. Most dogpark users are pretty good about this because they are so grateful to have a place to bring their dogs.

Second time we went winter caching there and same thing POOP EVERYWHERE. I think Ian posted a cache log of someone who was mugged while trying to cache there.

Hmmm, good thought there.

How many OTHER word rhyme with 'Noodle'? Seriously.

Oh, BTW - Goodhue has another taunting pre-hunt video just posted:

Link to Goodhue 'Encouragement' Video

He mentions he has an accomplice this year... Hmmm 'Airy Fellow'

Who among you quakes and flinches at hunting under snows of fifty-four inches?

LOVE IT

The funny thing is BBMTN's little meltdown over there actually works in our favor. People that maybe thought he had a point earlier are not going to want to appear to be on his side now and they'll drop it. Likewise I suggest we drop it and take a PISS (Passively Ignore the Stupid Son of a...). Now that he's completely lost it, arguing with him further either makes us look stupid or like we're picking on him. At the very least, I'd recommend not directing anything toward him specifically. Just make general points and let him attack you.

Kinda funny, I was wondering if they would address all the whining and complaining at the pp board.
