Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Peoplesforum Edition

You need to go to the 2004 Winter Carnival Medallion Hunt thread.

Hey all...

It seems that I have the stomach crud that my kids had last week. Spent the entire day in bed, pretty much...did prop myself up in front of the pc this afternoon to get caught up. And after seeing Green's post, took a look at the paper....NO, at least not in MY paper.

Looks like a lot of Battle Creek followers. Anything's possible - and I wouldn't be surprised. Not going out anywhere tonight...we'll have to see how good the next couple clues seem.

Later! Think I'm going to venture downstairs and see if there's anything besides water for me.

Mom... You SHURE??? That REALLY looks like Dad with Emmy on his sholders... And there's two udder little girls in front... Gosh. But I thought it was you guys!

Mornin all who went to PP last night they got the papers in at 11

where is everybody??????????????//

never mind, I've found you.

and here's a JOE for Frosti

Woo!

Hmmmmmmm . . . . with the reference to green. . . I betcha our GREEN one was ecstatic!!! Yes?

Or . . . . green is the color of a frog . . . . and that reminds me of a former Czech legend . . . . a story was often told that the medallion was hidden in the FROG POND!

Hey MJ!

I wonder if Bee is out there. I bet he's already dug that place up!

Hi Ter Ter! Paul just called me, I'll be back in a sec. BTW . . . where is the thread that has the most "action"? I get lost with so many folders here! BRB

Check the winter carnival folder...there's plenty of discussion there.

I've got to go. I have to run to the store. Need to pick something up for LuLu. But I'll be back later, okay.

You just be careful out there, MJ.

MJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Green must mean the money, right??

How many times have you woken up in the morning after a hard night drinking and thought, "How the hell did I get home?" As hard as you try, you cannot piece together your return journey from the bar to your house.

The answer to this puzzle is that you used a Beer Scooter.... The Beer Scooter is a mythical form of transport, owned and leased to the drunk by Bacchus the Roman god of wine. Bacchus has acquired a large batch of these magical devices.

The Beer Scooter works in the following fashion: The passenger reaches a certain level of drunkenness and the "slurring gland" begins to give off a pheromone. Bacchus or one of his many sub-contractors detects this pheromone and sends down a winged Beer Scooter.

The scooter scoops up the passenger and deposits them in their bedroom via a Trans-Dimensional Portal. This is not cheap to run, so a large portion of the passenger's in-pocket cash is taken as payment.

This answers the second question after a night out. "How did I spend so much money?" Unfortunately, Beer Scooters have a poor safety record and are thought to be responsible for over 90% of all UDI (Unidentified Drinking Injuries).

An undocumented feature of the beer scooter is the destruction of time segments during the trip. The nature of Trans-Dimensional Portals dictates that time will be lost, seemingly unaccounted for.

This answers a third question after a night out - "What the hell happened?" With good intentions, Bacchus opted for the REMIT (Removal of Embarrassing Moments In Time) add on, that automatically removes, in descending order, those parts in time regretted most.

Unfortunately one person's REMIT is not necessarily the REMIT of another and quite often lost time is regained in discussions over a period of time.

Independent studies have also shown that Beer Goggles often cause the scooter's navigation system to malfunction thus ending the passenger to the wrong bedroom, often with horrific consequences.

For the family man, Beer Scooters come equipped with flowers picked from other people's garden and Thump-A-Lot boots (Patent Pending). These boots are designed in such a way that no matter how quietly you tip-toe up the stairs, you are sure to wake up your other half. Special anti-gravity springs ensure that you bump into every wall in the house and the CTSGS (Coffee Table Seeking Guidance System) explains the bruised shins.

The final add-on Bacchus saw fit to invest in for some scooters is the TAS (Tobacco Absorption System). This explains how one person can apparently get through 260 Marlboro Lights in a single night.

PS: Don't forget the on-board heater, which allows you to comfortably get home from the bar in sub-zero temperatures, wearing just a T-shirt.

And yo... ninjas.. I gotta tell ya..

I might have gotten one e-mail yesterday, definitely got two today. My Norton Anti-Virus 2004 picked it up right away. Keep yourself protected.

While the body of the e-mail varies, it usually includes what appears to be an error message, such as: "The message cannot be represented in 7-bit ASCII encoding and has been sent as a binary attachment."

While many computer users are savvy about not opening executable files or other attachments that may contain viruses, the latest worm masks itself as an innocuous text document or a file that your computer appears unable to read.

"This one is almost begging you to click on the attachment," said Sharon Ruckman, the head of anti-virus firm Symantec's security response team.

Nice place.

My Clue Master Mobile kicks ass on the Medallionator

On an entirely different topic, today I got to deal with sewer backup in my basement, after clearing my in-laws driveway of 14" snow, taking them to the Ice Palace, them taking us to McGovern's for lunch (GREAT turkey dinner), driving thru and around Phalen, and dealing with rush hour bad weather traffic.

UGH
