2014 - Como Park

OMG

Three mojitos down and a long time yet to go for the next clue. Three is just about my limit. even at home.

The puck looks to be green hued and square this year.

 green tinted puck

I am with you OT.

Trail just seems right this year. Next thought. Where to park?

CONO!

I just got off the phone with one of my sons and he said the same thing about parking. But lack of parking didn't stop them from hiding it in Lilydale.

Lots o parking or zero parking, they really mean the same thing to the CW. Perhaps the warning about private property is better understood considering the trail option.

Great noodle.

I'm not even trying tonight.... still recovering from the beer dabbler. I can't believe I'm still upright right now. :pbpt: :lipsealed:

Base ball fields

...the ways he'd form his thoughts

deep far gaze through long hair

pitches at/on TV

Too many words and all I come up with doesn't rhyme. We should have the actual clue shortly.

I am not getting far enough.

Far from the pitches

In long hair and britches

He stood through the storm

And to joy he gave form

Though a bust on TV

Deep thoughts has he

Turn his head just a ways

At the treasure he'd gaze.

I'm just going with simple nouns...i like Henrik Ibsen

all i know now is away from the ballfields :smile:

Is it Schiller or Ibsen? Or both?

pitches makes me think ball fields, yet bust makes me think Ibsen bust. Not exactly near each other.

Gaze... trying to think if there is scenic overlook, or coin op telescope thingy.

Schiller was the real guy mired in the Pits

Schiller wrote Ode to Joy so at least the first four lines are about him, and he is far from the ball fields. But was he a bust on TV, or are they also referring to the Ibsen bust? Maybe it is between those two?

So we are to imagine turning his head and figure out where he'd be looking at the spot for the treasure.

Absurd.

Nice work, Seaneen. You were on to Schiller a few days ago.

I wonder if it's both...so then which head turn are we to imagine.

That's what I just said then deleted - The TV part is the enigma now.

Just a thought...Ibsen wrote "A Doll's House" and there was a TV show called "Doll House" that was canceled in 2009.

Perfect! I think that's the link

In Ghosts, Ibsen also talks about joy through the character Oswald. But, I agree that the first part sounds more like Schiller. And, the second sounds like Jack Handey.

Nice noodle

I do like the german and the long hair idea

It has to be both - the bust is just that. We would also have to imagine the clothing.

Schiller's clothing is nothing that needs to be imagined.

Medallion being swallowed by snow.

OR..."Red Widow" was a TV show that was canceled, and there was a character in it named Schiller.

I think we were writing at the same time. Sounds like GreenTeam has a plausible option for the TV show. I think mostly though they wanted to use the word bust to make us think of Ibsen. I suspect it is his head they mean for us to turn, but what do they mean by "a bit"? Is it kind of like going "generally east"? But somewhere between the two. I suspect this was actually meant to be a later clue and they moved it up to try and end the hunt earlier.

THANKS!

I thought that too Allison.

True! good one

but what do they mean by "a bit"? Is it kind of like going "generally east"?

heh

Schiller was the philosopher. I'd imagine there was a busy of him on a tv show?

I thought about Jack Handey too for a second, but now that you mention it again, they used the word "handy" in clue 3 as well. I wonder if that has some significance?

Wish I was about 30 years younger. :frown:

Maybe "handy" is the clue for what it is hidden in.

jack pine?

Hiya - getting here a bit late, but Jack Handy was the *first* thing that crossed my mind when I read "deep thoughts".

So, the big field, paths, trees, etc. between Schiller and Ibsen, it sounds like. (Unless they are just giving another park clue. Wouldn't that suck?)

deep thoughts is definetly a red flag...at least 15 to 20 percent of us triggered on the same thought
