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.

It would be much easier if I could just give you THX and you give me $1000.

Kidneys are the part that make you pee!

No, that would be the bladder. Frosti, you must indeed be an anatomical marvel! :)

The reward is for proof that WE are Mr. News, we are trying to get everyone to realize that we are not Mr. News.... but noone seems to get it. Read my new tag line.

We? Are you attached at the hip or something?

:-)

Probably ready to post as Mr. News.....

It's obvious who Mr News is and it isn't me. I'm not that frickin' stupid.

It would be much easier if I could just give you THX and you give me $1000.

Man! What did I ever do to you?

I kept dreaming all last night that after I wrote that I had started writing the clues, someone had figured out from that statement where my hiding place was and I had to start all over. I actually had to go back and reread some of the messages from last night to be sure it didn't really happen.

I see now that Dal & AW are dreaming - hmmmm AW dreamt of writing the clues and hiding the treasure and Dal about deciphering them and finding the treasure...I think it's a conspiracy...;)...telepathic?

Maybe it's a sign that Dal was meant to win this year's Mock Hunt? And if people didn't see it in my club, the film crew mailed off a $100 check today to be used towards the prize. They may even do a bit of filming if anyone is interested (via the interns if they, in turn, are interested).

Anyway, either I'm getting a cold or I really am still allergic to fish, but either way I'm going to head home early tonight (was supposed to work a bit late) so I'm out of here until I get home in about an hour or so.

New Stud Rooster

A farmer goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop. The new rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, "OK old timer, it's time for you to retire." The old rooster replies, "Come on, surely you cannot handle ALL of these chickens. Look what it has done to me. Can't you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?"

The young rooster says, "Beat it! You are washed up and I am taking over." The old rooster says, "I tell you what, young stud. I will race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets the exclusive domain over the entire chicken coop." The young rooster laughs, "You know you don't stand a chance old man, so just to be fair I will give you a head start." The old rooster takes off running. About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off running after him. They round the front porch of the farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap. He is already about 5 inches behind the old rooster and gaining fast. The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting in his usual spot on the front porch when he sees the roosters running by. He grabs up his shotgun and BOOM! He blows the young rooster to bits.

The farmer sadly shakes his head and says, "Dammit...third gay rooster I bought this month."

Moral of this story... Don't mess with us "OLD TIMERS"- age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill!
