I'm sure unless I avoid all media outlets for the next month or two I'll have no choice but to see it:)

So is alex's happy hour still on for tonight? Anyone going who might be passing through downtown St. Paul? My girlfriend's car is being repaired and she is using mine to go to her niece's concert tonight.

Personally, I thought the sister was more attractive. But going for the younger sister didn't work for Prince Charles, so I guess let the kids choose for themselves.

looking for something to do tonight?

The 2008 Vulcan Krewe is again hosting a great night of fun in old Saint Paul to help raise much needed funds for their charity, the Metro Deaf School.

Meet at the Gopher Bar (corner of Wacouta & West 7th) to sign in between 6 & 7pm.

...

The 1st of 4 trucks will be departing shortly after 7pm and head to some of our favorite establishments and returning to the Gopher Bar sometime during the 10 oÂ’clock hour.

With your $10 donation, each person will receive a "limited edition" button (which is your ticket on & off the trucks), a voucher for a FREE APPETIZER to be used during a future visit to Tom Reids Hockey City Pub and 1 raffle ticket for prizes.

Additional raffle tickets will be available for purchase throughout the evening.

Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day today.

We had a picnic lunch with my Mom today - but indoors thanks to the rain that showed up just about the time we were going to eat.

Our daughter sent a nice card and she called this morning and we had a nice conversation.

Our son and his wife got back from their cruise later this afternoon and he called twice today. We will celebrate Mother's Day with him next weekend.

LOL!! I usually don't come in here because it is a lot about the hunt, and many people I don't know.

There are so many "new" forums here now that I belong to from WX it's hard to keep up.

THANK YOU to all who voted for Sarahs PEEPS diarama.

The PP merged her votes but it still wasn't enough to make the paper.

It was her first time. She says she wants to do it again next year even though she can't be as elaborate as that State Fair.

Haven't been down there recently...is that Prescott? Looks like the Mississippi meeting the St. Croix. Lot of improvement since I've been there. Used to have property on the MN side 3.8 miles upriver on the St. Croix.

Re the airport. I grew up straight down the hill from it. My uncle was a member of the Hook 'Em cow flying club that started the airport, and build the original hangar. I spent some fun days as a child playing on the obstacle course left over from WWII.

you mean the logo? not sure. anyone else having this problem?

I don't see the picture.

Re the river flow...if you are standing at the public landing in Prescott you can see the Mississippi literally holding the St. Croix back. From the ground level...

Launched a boat there once that got away. It was a weekday, so very little boat traffic. Ol' Man River grabbed that boat and headed for Red Wing!! Fortunately there was a fisherman out there and he caught up with it, and brought it back. Dh was very embarrassed....

re the river: i believe it. the picture makes it look like its the other way around. that's why i found it so interesting.

Maybe it's a Mac thing? I'm on an imac using safari, and just see a box with a ? mark....

I'll have to check from the pc sometime and see what I see.

No. link to website and its icon are missing as well. The main page link for the missing icon is "http://coolercrew.com/" which is incomplete because it is missing the 'www' - what is that all about?

no, not having the www is fine.

What's up with all the sirens in IGH tonight? I've been hearing sirens non-stop for about an hour, maybe longer, sounds like they are on one freeway or another - 52 and/or 494.

Ok Minnesota People... I need some research help. I'm trying to figure something out - when I was going through my mom's stuff, I found a HUGE pile of old letters from a guy named Frank Barnes... Funny thing - he was in Prision. Any way of doing an old search on what someone was hooked for? He sent her one of his mug shots, I have his prisoner number 18691. The letters are dated 1957-1962 that I've found so far.

Any tips?

I'll provide som...e beer, a grill, some pop, and burgers. BYOB. Pot luck mostly for food. We have plenty of fire wood to burn!!! We'll move the party (and tents) into our 2 large pole barns in case of rain. Running water and electricity available.

Since theres no Taste of Minnesota this year, I'm hoping for a good turn out!! C'mon out and have some fun in the country!!

Wrong link ares...
https://cch.state.mn.us/

The person being searched is supposed to be notified. Just click that you agree to tell them and they let you search, even if you dont tell them.

Public info is only posted for 15 years though....Sounds like your search person may have been longer ago. I think you can find prison records somewhere too but not sure.
