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.

E&H's mom reminded me of the fruit conversation earlier, and oddly enough, the song "Tempted by the Fruit of Another" is playing right now on my 'puter. Coincidence?

I know, that's why I posted it. Maybe you ought to install a sneeze shield over your computer? Like at the salad bar?

Hello!

You guys sure made for some big smiles along the slog ways today. I needed that!

Tim - I understand your hurt and your disappointment. It's human nature to want to lash out when you're in pain. But this bashing isn't like you. I don't want you feeling guilty later about things said today in the midst of that disappointment. Think...really think about what you're doing and why...and then go back and delete those posts that are only meant to hurt someone. You wouldn't hurt a flea.

I know, Tim. I know all too well. This is the first year in I don't know how many that I didn't even get to dig. Not once! I didn't know the park yet, but I'd seen the speculation (from those bad, BAD people that want to post everything on here so the whole world knows). So I wanted to at least check Marry-em out on my way in to work on Friday. But I was already delayed, and figured I should just head in. I would dig that night.

Yeah right...

And Cluemaster - About Southview Chev??!?!?!?!? RUN from that place. Never, ever, never again will we do business at that rip off joint.

oh and mom, one of the great things about having the modem answer the first ring on the listed number is that eventually, the computers that do the dialling get smart and assume your number is a fax line and removes you from their lists!

Terry - I KNEW you'd want to post about Southview!! :)

I've never known anyone who had a good experience there. Of course, I've only known about 4 who've had bad ones.

Clueguy.....maybe print this out and bring it tommorrow? Just a thought...it would be nice for them to know there are others that share your opinion and on the internet at that!LOL!

Tim, follow Terry's excellent advice. And from me, the goofier you get in here now, the duller the pain. Can I get a "haha"? Come on, close your eyes and picture the Ch'areez we've created for all our enjoyment, marching down Cedar At.

Mom - You're right! Any opportunity I get. In fact, none of those Denny Hecker, Heckler, Hackles...or whatever his ________ name is will ever, ever see me again.

oh that's a good idea, scribe. they'd read the rest of the filler around it and laugh him out of the store!

As far as I am concerned, it would have been better if the hunt was canceled because lack of snow. Either that or hide it well.

Someone asked earlier about how the rehash bash went. There is my usual chatter on the coolercrew.com site for a overview of the day.

I am so tempted, SO, SO tempted to costume myself as Ares for this parade.

Checklist: beverage hat with straws (check), strapped-on laptop with sneeze shield (check), red and green M&Ms (check), binocular (check), chandlier con underpants (check), diet coke (check).

So is everyone going to the parade? I could get rid of some energy...

I can't say I don't agree with you, Tim. I don't think it should have been out there laying in the middle of a ballfield with some scotch tape on it either. They *knew* this was a low/no snow year, and the hiders should have made the challenge that much harder.

Thanks people for bringing me down to earth. Seriously though, I hope the kid had a good attitude. Like the guy that found it in 97, on lunch break.
