Deb - What ages?

Scribe

Marydale,Leah.I checked out MLK and I think not because of the school so close by,also the rest of the clues don't seem to fit there,too bad it's right in the neighborhood!

Scribe

I could be wrong but I have that 'right' feeling if you know what I mean.

There is a portion of Battle Creek that's west of McKnight, right? I'm used to the east side, but I think the west side is where some of my friends go mountain biking.

Mulder--dragged out the ole ssp '69yearbook; Kerry looks famil; ssp went to state hockey in '69 but lost...

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:39 AM Permalink
Mulder

SSP- Yep, Kerry was the goalie, I believe. He's my uncle so I wasn't around then!

mulder Early forties.

Mulder

Deb - That would be Roxy, maybe Steve.

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:42 AM Permalink
sspclassof69

Mulder--your uncle probably re-lives that game, espically him being the goalie and all.....we've forgivin' him! WHere do you think the med is hidden this year...r u on the Battlecreek bandwagon?

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:42 AM Permalink
Mulder

You know, I really have no idea where the med is hidden. I don't think it's Battle Creek. Just a feeling, though, no real evidence. I think clue number three is really important ("If you can figure out THIS clue") although I just can't figure it out!

Mulder, Steven and Carolyn.

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:45 AM Permalink

Deb, How do you know them?

deborah bierwerth

Mulder, I used to work with Carolyn.

Leah Logan

Are the any courageous or honorable men by the name of Jefferson?

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:49 AM Permalink
Mulder

Thomas Jefferson, Jefferson Davis ...

sspclassof69

Good point on the "THIS" clue, Mulder; what do u think circular thinking is to pinpoint location? and bank account? shrinking? what key words do you see?

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:50 AM Permalink
Mulder

Deb - I wonder if I've met you. I've met a lot of people that Carolyn has worked with....she's my mom.

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:51 AM Permalink
ares

mulder, you have a strange definition of honorable, at least according to my history knowledge.

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:51 AM Permalink
Mulder

I just threw out some Jefferson names. I think 'ol Tom would be considered honorable though.

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:52 AM Permalink
Mulder

I think circular thinking is the important part of that clue. I think that the bank account reference simply means that if you figure out this clue you will win a lot of money. I thought at first that it could be hidden in a deposit envelope but not after last night's clue. It's not often that they put more than one important piece of the puzzle in one clue.

Leah Logan

I just keep thinking Palace- which is on Jefferson that is why I asked

Thu, 01/25/2001 - 9:55 AM Permalink
SueBee

Leah, you're going to make it Palace, clues be damned! Hee hee. :-)

Viva la Valley!

Mulder

Deb- Um, since I've been around she's worked at St. Joe's hospital, an OB clinic in IGH, a family practice on Snelling, Woodwinds in Woodbury, maybe a couple more, I'm not sure.
