Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Peoplesforum Edition

she'll be back though in what? 6 more months or so?

and kids, as long as you know that, i guess its all that matters :)

THX, you've told Scribe the news, right?

The winter survival one?

required since when????

I was just looking at the pictures on the NAHF website from the hunt. I was looking at the pictures of last year's winners. If you find the Medallion, I wonder if they really make you wear those sweatshirts? If so, I don't think I want to win. I'll hold out for an "I found the Medallion" tie.

winter survival gear. when was wearing it a requirement for treasure hunting? i mean during the mock hunt, i was out freezing my arse off in the cold, wind, and snow, jacket unzipped and no hat.

Besides, you're just crazy!

i won't deny it.

ares!

Goodmorning :) - Yeeaaah-first weekend Kids are out of school! :)-one went to the lake the other is at a sleepover. Unfortunatly now I am headed to a funeral and then a graduation party.

I'm out of school? I'm taking a few classes this summer, and I start up again on Monday. So I'm not out of school... ;)

I almost think of you as 'one of my own' now. Everytime I talk about or type or write 'kids' I think of you included :) - but your still not in my will!

You mean I don't get any green M & M's, or autographed Neil Diamond pictures?

I havn't decided who gets those yet. Maybe if your real nice and help me with that 'duct taping project' ;)

All I gotta say is when it comes off..... OUCH

hahahahahahahaha ---ooooooh ::frowning-hurt cringing look::

Yes, but only a guy would have a true appreciation for the pain...

I almost think of you as 'one of my own' now.

haha. let's see, you were what, 6, when kids and i were born? so i'll settle for being the kid brother, but not one of your kids :)

i think i'm gonna have to start hauling my butt out of bed earlier on saturday mornings. 'tis amazing the conversations i miss by sleeping :) i'm not sure i wanna know what "duct taping project" you're doing, me2.

Hey, I missed out on Friday's fun- you guys were so funny- It can be theraputic :)

If you are a dad....

Happy Dad's Day to you

hey, miss a day, and you miss a lot.

and what if i'm not a dad?

what did youdo for your dad?

We are having DQ Scooby-doo cake

um, does bidding on some stuff on ebay for him count?

Well, In rememberance of my dad(1942-1994)

My dad took me and my sister out looking for the Winter Carnival medallion back in 1984? at Newell Park. He could not actually win if he found it cause he worked for Ma Press, but he started a very memorable tradition of the 'hunt'. He taught us about competition, even if we could not win the prize we learned about configuring and puzzle solving. someday I will find it:)

I remember when, I was only 15, he camped outside with me at the Met Center in Bloomington all weekend! Just so I could get front row seats for Neil Diamond. (he did not like Neil, but he did it for me).

You will always be in my thoughts dad - I sooo love & miss you -thanks

For all of you who still have your dad's - let them know you appreciate and love them-the last thing my dad ever said to me was 'I love you'- sounding like it was his last breath-I didn't know that would be the last time I would see him coherent---You really never know and you think you have all the time BUT really...you don't.

that's so sweet what your dad did for the neil tickets. and so true about how much time you have. my grandfather was here, quite healthy, one nite, and gone the next morning.

i'm looking forward to my next one. a whole week of hunting jake's next medallion.

looks like its been pretty quiet around here.

so....

mornin' sam.

Won't be quiet for much longer...

Jackie and Trent"

HOORAY for a Minnesota upbringing!

(But I still love Texas now)

Woohoo, congratulations! More competition or cheap labor, however you look at it :)

i like the cheap labor concept myself. congratulations to jackie and trent.

(But I still love Texas now)

not a tag, but probably should be. if only for the excellent use of grammar that only a texan can accomplish. :)

Way Cooler!

Congratulations to Jackie and Trent - and a big hello! to Bridget!

whoa. methinks there was much heartburn there!

she is breathtaking

i assume that's trent and jackie's baby, ian.

Congrats to Trent and Jackie, and Welcome to the newest member of the Cooler Crew!

Welcome to the Cooler Bridget!

Hello everyone-
Thought I should clear something up...... the baby picture on Ians posts IS NOT Bridget Tooley, I repeat, NOT Bridget Tooley. If you would like a picture of BRIDGET TOOLEY email Trent and Jackie and I am sure they would be more than happy to send you one. Again, that baby picture on Ian's post IS NOT BRIDGET TOOLEY!!!

Best Regards
Jake Inge

the baby picture on Ians posts IS NOT Bridget Tooley, I repeat, NOT Bridget Tooley.

I posted that when Ares asked, but it never showed up, I guess. Sorry about the confusion.

Thats alright Jake-calm down-wheres the fire?----We were all just welcoming Bridget into the Cooler whether Ian posted a picture of a baby or not

AND YOUR HUNT? -you come in here and don't even mention your hunt! What's the deal?

thats ok, ian. i've had things i'd swear i've posted not show up too. no biggie.

jake, when's the hunt?

ok-I'll take this one....palina-joesy ;)

by the way-this is a great day (the 19th falling on a wednesday) to buy a lottery ticket---don't forget me when you win :)

Would it be a StutteringJoe?
