just thought of something -- what if "a stirring combination" actually refers to an anagram? I'll have to work on this to see if something actually comes of it, but I have trouble believing this clue just means "close to where they sell coffee" -- if this was the case, why not have something cryptic about food or vending or something?

Sun, 01/28/2001 - 12:17 AM Permalink
Treasure Digger

OMM,you have to find someone who does so if you find the thing, you can share half the $5,000. Remember, spend $3 and receive $5,000.

Sun, 01/28/2001 - 12:18 AM Permalink
Treasure Digger

Because it seems the last few years the winners do not have a registered button and we've said how important it is to have one to receive the extra $5,000.

Could they be referring to the new bus route when they are talking about "the busiest street of all."

It's too late to register a button. It had to be postmarked by midnight on the 25th.

Hey all!

Just wanted to let you know that I support the idea of it being at smaller park besides Como. It always seems to work out that way. I think it would be cool if they hid it in Phalen, though. It hasn't been there for years.
