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.

Lettuce turn our attention a moment to priorities.

I've mine in so strait, it never entered my mind to call unemployment on Fri...

I wonder what the burden would be on insurance companies in this area if The Hunt ever did end? It would be billions and billions in therapy alone. Zoloft, Paxil and Valium would drop to just .01 cent each...

For the sake of an already bad economy, The Hunt Must Never Die!

Me2, The Brown's shaking his head.

Me thinks he's regretting having met this spitfire.

What was he saying to me yesterday...???

Oh! I said that now that The Hunt was over, things could get bock to normal once the Re-Hash Bash was over.

He replied that he somehow felt that being with me, life would never be what most folks would call "normal."

Is for me, now becoming so for The Brown, but wasn't.

This was his first bonifide Hunt, like how heavy we all get into it. He was quite surprised there were so many that feel so strongly. To him, prolly even still now - but less so than when The Hunt first got started - ittiz a treasure hunt, to have fun with.

He's yet to succumb to the passion, tradition and history like us.

But, Me2... He's vulching more and more when I post here! Me thinks he'll soon post on his own!

He, too, will become a Cooler Head! :D

Me2, you kind of already know mine, from talking to me that one night on AIM. No, that's fine. Feel free to keep in touch about how much you enjoy your grapefruits, late night walks at Highland, or things like that.

No mention that *we* were invited by the PioneerPress and that we're there as their guests, no mention that it's the PioneerPress that's got the F-14 staging number, no mention that since we don't know what time to be there we're supposing 5:30 at the latest since the parade begins at 6:00 PM.

The e-mail also went to some that are *not* Cooler Heads, don't wanna be Cooler Heads, and prolly never will be Cooler Heads. They're not gonna bee too happy to get that e-mail, me thinks. Yust my opinion...

We can't drag folks here because we wanna rub elbows with them. They must come because they choose to...

In fact, one got the e-mail that blames this forum and Allison for the hunting ending too soon. That recipient's gonna go rite thru the roof.

K Ares, that WAS an irreplaceble one but my fingers were just to slow from being so darned cold in here - so it was my own fault

(I learned more about forgiveness & where to place blame this week too) :)

Please excuse Jake for his mistake, he has only recently begun showering and brushing his teeth properly again.

I want to know how to get on the email list, too.

LM, we don't have a list. Should not have a list unless only one's the keeper, you give that person your address with instructions as to whether or not it may be given out. Many people here DO NOT want their e-mail address known.

I don't know about Jake's list, where he got it, how he formed it. But it's not a "Cooler Head Mailing List."

Ares, the parade's always been by word o'mouth - here and at The Re-Hash Bash, just for above reasons. Unless one person does e-mail friends that they know they can. There's never been a blanket e-mail sent sos as to respect the privacy of others.
