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.

I saw your King, Ian! Very cool.

Hey, check out the message I just posted. Some of this could be fun.

I bet those wishing to post pictures of not so nice things will think it fun too.

I'm withholding final judgement, but I don't think that forum is going to be as conducive of noodling clues and shooting the breeze as this web crossing sort of forum has been.

now, if scribe and me2 are not to be placed in the same room, and i can see what happens when green, dal, and me2 are in the same room. god i don't even wanna think what this place would be like if scribe were here.

Hmmm,another little experiment?LOL!

iRush and I and a couple others were on the grounds in front of the capitol last year and we saw the (or thought we saw) the oddest thing. Several hundred yards in front of us there appeared to be someone in the flower area gardening. Granted hunters carry gardening tools (I do myself), but this person was actually standing there gardening. When we got close to the spot where we saw the person, there was no one to be found, no footprints, no tools, no sign that anyone had been there. How's that for a freaky Saint Paul treasure hunting ghost story?

It's probably one of the Capitol Ghosts...For those of you who are skeptics you should come to the capitol when we're working late and go into the tunnels

jennifer - that doesn't surprise me at all. The Capital ghosts are well known!

Green, there was someone from the PP at the Re-hash bash last year handing out stuff. That's where I got my t-shirt, as well as some magnets. I think they also maybe gave out key rings.

Hey Terry, remember Scribe trying to hook your daughter up at the PDG? What do you think about Violent J as a potential son-in-law?

TMK - That would be up to her. She's a tad bit older than the clowns.

Now I'm really outta here.

I know. I'm just kidding. VJ seems like a great guy, but she is older, and from the sounds of it, she doesn't want anything to do with any guys. Guess that ninja will have to look elsewhere. Hmm, Scribe, you're a hottie. Do you have a sister?

I think I'll pass on tunnels and ghosts, Jenn... OK, OK? But thanks for the invite!

Hey, Hey, but I believe in them too much. Yup. Yup.

Here's another bloated, over-inflated ego thought...

You know, maybee MomPress is even keeping forums because o'us. Now, they may not like us as much as I like us, so I very well may be out in left field...

But, wasn't Dulth shut down entirely? Completely? Gods know this whole thing - and prolly us - are a royal pain in the butt, but...

But, *maybe* they, too don't want to lose The Cooler Crew and the flavor we've given The Hunt these past five years. Maybee they're even agreeing to going along with forums - instead o'getting rid o'them entirely like Duluth - for the sake of those that Hunt The Med here.

I do not like the new place. But it beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. Ittiz better than no MomPress place.

Somehow, someway I'll deal with it and make it work. I did the last time when they took away the icons. I'll do it again.

Doesn't mean I won't crab about it from time-to-time... LOL!!!

Scribe, you need to take an assertiveness course. Quit beating-around-the-bush and tell us how you *really* feel!

Dang. Ter leaves... What does she mean the Capital ghosts are well known? I don't know ANYTHING about them!!!! Where can I find out more?

They don't want to lose the Cooler Crew Clown flava.

They want to keep much cooler love.

Terry inquiring minds want to know....what about these capitol ghosts?? I've never heard of them and I have lived here my whole life!!

Green as for your suggestion of walking with you and Dal on Saturday I'm still thinking on it. It all depends on the temp I really don't have the time or the energy to get sick. But I really want to get to know some more people before next year starts so I'm thinking real hard on it!!

well, miss scribey, there was no one there when we came in, they didn't have a spot for us, and besides, this is just supposed to be a test site. here's what i got from mike on saturday:

The new discussion boards will have similar functionality, with some important improvements. It isn't launched yet, though, so I can't really direct you to it. Stay tuned.
