Ares, do you know of any radio stations that could be embedded in a discussion here? Is something like that possible?

radio stations?

You didn't take any M & M's after that did you?

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 5:59 AM Permalink
King Boreas aka Ian

live365, or some internet music?

actually camoterry found an empty peanut m&m's wrapper too :)

unfortunately, neither me2 nor dal had any m&ms with them :(

ahh. probably is possible. i've no idea how i'd go about doing it though. i don't usually listen to streaming music off the net. most of the time its download, play, repeat.

ok, thanks

that's what Lance thought too.

Ares I think the hill I was thinking of is still in St. Paul, but it is close to boarder.

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:03 AM Permalink
King Boreas aka Ian

So, is the spot between Forest and Sherwood?

Yeah I know ares.Women!

Artemis is ready now.Looks like we are going to Como for a bit and then probally to Phalen for awhile.

BBL no sincerly!

It seems like I'm not the only one fixating on Phalen. I hope tonight's clue doesn't make me feel like a moron.

new daddy, if you're talking about the large hill north of the island the ice palace was on, its actually just north of the border. me2, camoterry and i sat in romolo's and actually attempted to figure out where the border really is. looks like the northern tip of the island is right on the border. now that i'm back in the office, i'll have a look at a map and get back to you.

edit: yep according to mapquest's aerial photos, that's the northern boundary.

Sherwood and Forest intersect so there wouldn't be anything between them.

hmm. allison seems to know phalen all too well...... wonder if that means anything :)

and ian, sherwood and forest are in st paul.

I better take a closer look, thanks

My bus route goes down Arcade starting at Larpenteur. If I take a later bus, it takes a detour down Forest so I am pretty familiar with all the streets along there.

How convenient....

FOLLOW THAT BUS!

yea that's the spot did a brief walk through. looked promising, thanks

jewel, its *got* to be at phalen. there is just far too much there that matches the clues. including the nice bumpy terrain. of course if its specifically on *that* terrain, there are gonna be 4 very po'ed hunters!

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:21 AM Permalink
Frosti

Yeah, route 61. That bus runs about 2 blocks from my house when it takes the little Forest detour. You'd run right down Forest on the west side of Phalen, with a beauty view of the new Phalen Rec Center.

ok, nd, next question: would aw stoop to the level of saying its in a st paul park, using the technicality that phalen is, in its entirety, run by st paul parks and rec, and put it on the maplewood side of the park? allison, perhaps you'd care to comment on this ;)

Frosti

That would be brutal Ares. I for one don't think he'd do it.

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:26 AM Permalink
ares

it would be brutal, wouldn't it? somehow though, i wouldn't put it past him.

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:27 AM Permalink
Frosti

Goldang it, I think I know where it is. Gonna leave work now and noodle on the bus with something that just slapped me in the face. Thanks mapquest!

Good eye Frosti

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:36 AM Permalink
Allison Wonderland

hmmmm, I wonder if Frosti saw the big "W"? And no, it's not in Maplewood in any way shape or form.

Seems some of the people at Phalen are now heading to Como instead according to this last phone call I got.

last year I hid it an Linwood. i neither live by Linwood nor do I have any reason to go over there. It just seemed like a good place to go.

the big "w"???

me2, dal, and camoterry?

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:40 AM Permalink

Oh that big 'W' is right in front of me AW. Gettin' the kid ready to head out. Boss has been called.

On your mark, get set,

In the movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" the characters are looking for a stash of money and all they know is what city it's in and that's it's buried under "a big W". So for the whole movie they're running all over the place, fighting with each other, going through one misadventure after another trying to find "the big W". Finally, in the end, Jonathan Winters is chasing Phil Silvers around on a beach when Phil Silvers runs under some palm trees. Jonathan Winters follows him and then stops dead realizing the trees are growing at angles and form a big "W". So I always refer to that moment of realization, when everything falls into place, as the big "W" moment.

Oh, and yes, Me2, Dal, and CamoTerry though Me2 had to stop off and pick up her kids.

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:50 AM Permalink

no way.

Mon, 02/25/2002 - 6:52 AM Permalink
Allison Wonderland

Yes way. Apparently they are going on Me2's recommendation. Either that or frustration at not finding it at Phalen.
