So John Warling, nothin better to do, you must like using Cyber time to look for the medallion. Oh well, guess we are guilty of the same thing. P.S. where do you think it is? Have you been out there looking at all?

Mr. Tom... I've nothing appropriate. Wait! Didn't someone wear a tube sock tied around their arm last nite??? Can I do that?

I'd *rather* we all had proper Cooler Clan wear, with Cooler Hand Luke on it.

Me and Cheryl and Black Widow are going to get sweatshirts or something for next year so that we all look alike - that is if the PP doesn't pick up on our "clue" that this is really wanted and get going on having PPMCC-wear for next year!!!!

And if you don't have a bandana, just wrap a big, white towel around your head. Hey, all. I can hear the clock ticking to the inevitable find...not much more to discuss here today. We've picked the clues clean. Waiting eagerly for the next big clue.

O.K. ..the Dog has finally arrived on the scene, and up til now has just been quietly observing. I just had to figure out how this computer stuff works, which is not an easy thing to do being blindfolded and all. Anyway, Im here to try to help sniff out some clues. Going to the park right now...let you know later...

Dog - great graphic. Where did you find it? By the way.. I missed it yesterday, what is the "proper attire" for the cooler gang? So far I have a white bandana with Way Cool or Cooler Hand Luke written on it. Anything else? Is anyone putting their "handle" on theirs?
