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.

Sour grapes, Me2. All thoughts here are opinions. People can take them or leave them.

Ittiz no more Allison's fault than yours, mine, Ares, Leela's, Mr. News, Joe Medallions.

LM, because over the years we've gotten to know each other and feel comfortable, or are getting comfortable, give folks our e-mail address for PERSONAL correspondence.

If you're comfortable with someone here, give them your e-mail address and tell them "Yes, you may give out in a blanket e-mail," or "No, this is just between you and me rite now. ASK ME BEFORE YOU SEND TO GOD AND EVERYBUDDY."

See?

I asked The Brown, "Well, how do you reply?"

He laughed and said, "I've no clue! (See! He IS becoming a Cooler Head!!!! He's totally clueless!) The inference could be MANY!"

What, Ares? Having my grapefruits maligned by THX that they're lemons (how would HE know?)?

Or The Greatest Place on Earth: The Cooler for Prevailing Cooler Heads?

I'm hoping you mean the latter...

Hey, Green, I kinda got the jist of your 1st impression of me this year (since you didn't remember me last year)-Since you got to know me I hope all of this doesn't make you feel that way again

As far as the latter goes... I'm working on it, I'm working on it...

Doubt I'll get a response as I don't think there's much to be done about the new forums...

MomPress is only one child o'Midnite-Rider...

But the fat lady ain't sung yet, and I'll pull for The 'Crew as long as there's a breath left in me.

Ok, you ladies need to knock it off already, or I'm going to get myself in trouble.

My wife reads this you know. I have been a master of restraint but, you're making it very difficult to keep quiet.

I'm eating "Sopa de Siete Chiles" -- if I spew, I'm gonna have to go to the hospital. Aye-yi-yi!

Not at all, Me2. Not at all.

Sometimes things are not the way they appear. Some folks are masters of disguise and have own agendas.

The better you get to know folks, the better and wiser an opinion can be formed.

We're all only human, make mistakes, and tend to follow first impressions.

Capise, kiddo? :D

    I got it at a lil soup shop in the downtown Minni skyway. It's like chili, but no meat and poblanos, anchos, jalepenos, and some other undiscernible chiles.
