I got in trouble a few years ago. Can't remember who didn't want to see it. I remember it being a purist thing to hear it at the PDG or something.

I have a suggestion about the header of this folder for the moderators. Can we have a seperate locked thread with just the clues and just have links to the thread above? We can open in a seperate tab to see all the clues while we post that way. Plus it gets way too much to scroll through to get to the messages with the full text of all the clues and video text. Maybe just links to all the videos too? (for this thread. Video text is cool on the seperate page)

icicles sculptures and dammed made me think of the ice dams and icicles on all the houses a few weeks back when the fire of the vulcans melted a lot of snow and it was warm for a day or two. I'm wondering if he hid it then? Is that when the 1st video came out during the warm spell? If so he may have put it deep down in the ice and snow (slush that day) into an icedam like he said in the 1st video. Might be a long hunt with easy clues but really hard to find and dig out. NOT FOR POODLERS!

Yea, I guess I should be more sensitive to others sometimes, but we are a hunter group and the clue is what we live for. Just my opinion.

I thought the Stay-Puft marshmallow guy when I read that airy fellow full of oxygen.

Remember the demos that used to be played for that one vacuum sealer and they would have a jar of marshmallows and would suck the air out of the jar, the marshmallows would have the air sqoshed out of them and vacuum seal the jar? When they took the lid off again, the marshmallows would return to their former size.

I don't think everyone on here catering to one person makes a whole lot of sense...

I think Mikey's a genius. Do what he said which would solve all the problems. If someone really doesn't want to see the clue before the Pre-Dig, then they probably shouldn't read the hunt thread before the Pre-Dig. Like we're not going to start talking about the clue?

I've not known a year that it isn't posted here when the clue first comes out.

So -- the ad for the PDG is in the early Sunday edition only? Not in the Saturday?

Got an email from Ittiz Eye...and he had to include this;

Ittiz Eye

- 12:04am Jan 26, 1999 CST (#2237 of 22131)

They slid it in a slider sleeve and jammed it in a heel. They dressed it up like stogies, and adorned a buggy wheel. It slept in cracks and drainpipes fit for any ugly roach. And then the time had come: it took a capitol approach.

...and then she tossed it back into the snow, right Terry?

Didn't they dam some parts of the river with all the flooding last oct? Shepherd road area?

I did notice that but with the reference to heaven and hell it just screamed religious reference to me.

They always sandbag the entrances to the downtown under the RR tracks at Jackson and Sibley. So the area all along Shepard Rd floods, including Lambert's Landing and Upper and Lower Landing parks.

THE BALD EAGLE and Vultures are in the same family of birds and..... there is biblical reference to these birds.....just food for thought

A dam is different than a levee. I don't know that I'd start thinking in levee terms. There's a dam at the Ford plant. There's also Beaver Lake. Or maybe it's a literal ice dam on a building in a park.

I'm already thinking Rehash Bash. I might bring Vanilla Vulture Vittles.

Whatever *that* is! Not sure what all will be in it, but I think I have a recipe I can tweak.
