2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

Welcome bock, King-O.

Ares, I'm telling you... TALK to The Terry. I don't remember.

You guys, come on. Do try and keep to the thread. At least a bit. Like try and keep the one-liner, not-about-hunting-down. Try and combine thoughts.

Come on... PAAALEEEZZZZ???? (whining)

GW=Goodwill!! I just got some skates for the boys at daves(Disab;ed American Veterans)!!:)

Gee whiz,Mr.Liqour I was just reading the bit from this morning...

Hello! I hate to bring up logic...BUT....the hunt has not officially started!! There has been no clue yet!!

The first two weeks before the hunt are equivilant to social hour before the hunt! If you don't like to slog our kind friends at the PP have put a "recent" button for your convenience.

USE IT!

you're not in a bad mood now are you, scribe? but yes, that's exactly what this is for.

Your point on "social hour" has a titch o'validity, Scibe. However, you're wrong.

Folks come here early to grind and gnash teeth; to sweat and pace - about The Hunt.

As I said, some socialization is good, even to be encouraged. But many people are taking it to extremes and the rediculous.

Ares,it just pissed me off reading that kind of garbage here....Good Gawd Ya'll!!

Every year we get a new brand of morons.......

New Cooler Rule:

NO MORONS ALLOWED!

No, Ares. It is not.

Again, some off topic commeraderie (sp?) is not only wanted, but needed.

But some of this stuff is ludicrious.

Your point is well takin Green! I agree,but one can only gnash teeth so long before the first clue,you gotta save some molars for the ACTUAL hunt!!

I checked out your site Kingers,it's pretty cool but the pictures seem dark,is it my computer or I'm doin somethin wrong? I love your set-up!

NO MORONS ALLOWED!

one thing to remember about saying things like that. if you go through and remove the most moronic 10% today, and then another 10% of what's left tomorrow, and so on, eventually you yourself fall into the 10%. and you create an elitist society. generally speaking though, the morons have a tendency to take care of themselves. like hunting for the medallion on power poles and such. speaking of that i've got a link to a website somewhere that actually shows a guy on an acid trip climing along the really-high voltage lines. and even though he survived it, i just gotta say it didn't exactly look pleasant.

Ares,I think I saw that exact guy in Highland park one year on a power pole! True story!

I had to resist tellin him that they taped it to the wire in the middle:)

Well, since this site *is* for gnashing and pacing and sweating and Hunt talk, as you do agree...

I suggest that *you* rein in the bridle and if the over abundance o'hunt talk bothers you, you hush.

Nite LL!

Thanks Scribe,No, it's not your comp. It was pretty dreary the day the first pictues were taken, the updated ones should be brighter.

Green,I have never complained of any type of talk,much less about the hunt!! But I don't like folks comin in and throwing personal attacks to other coolerheads either!

But some of this stuff is ludicrious.

indeed some of it is. and the number of posts in the past 3 weeks pretty much proves that. and unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it when it was pulled), they pulled the shoot-the-breeze thread, which is where the extreme socialisation belonged. wonder if we're gonna get one back?

A point well taken Ares!

Course I go into the political boards and don't always post politics either and so on...

Sat, 01/12/2002 - 11:58 PM Permalink
green

I agree. The personal attacks are not pleasant. However, they are allowd to express their opinions.

Those opinions have been expressed and acknowledged. And all here, so far, are doing their best to go with the concencus of keeping this thread as much on topic as possible.

and your flash can only get you so far when you're taking outdoorsy pictures. it's not that hard to tell what the weather was like the days i was out taking my charlie brown pics (follow the links from my name if you're interested in seeing them) based on the background light level.
