mighta been you, scribe. i honestly can't remember much of anything colourful with all that white out there :) i was, how shall we say, tool and boot free. (stupid, stupid, stupid, but not wrong).
I was out scouting, ok? it's been quite a while since i've even been at como (statue photography excluded, but it didn't count since there wasn't any snow there, and the trees still had leaves on them) and given that i was an idiot and parked by the main zoo entrance. well, it was nice (and needed) exercise anyway.
Ares,son,listen to me,you really didn't figure snow to be at Como? You are a disgrace,you should always have somethin in your trunk during the hunt.Weren't you at the basic training course????
Sorry I had to jump out without answering your question Ares. Wonderful DSL provider decided to have issues on one of the most important nights of my life(the posting of clue 7). Anyway issue resolved without having to make a nasty call to the provider. I don't know how I would have calmly explained that I really need to be on by midnight so that I could see the clue or else I would go insane.
junior, i'm flattered that you want to be me, but do ya think you could at least do the following:
1) impersonate my typing style and my choice spellings when the opportunity should present itself. 2) realise that i've had como over hidden falls for somewhere around 24 hours, now.
Ares - I don't even remember my question from this afternoon. Too many questions today, I can't even keep it all straight.
Reggman - I am having similar trouble. The only circular I think of is disc, but I think you already knew it. Also, I couldn't get yesterday's or today's clue to fit well, so now I don't know what to do tomorrow.
HEY!!! I've GOT IT!! The Tinman in The Wizard of Oz sang these words in his song... "when a man's an empty kettle he should be on his "mettle" and yet I'm torn apart... just because I'm presumin' that I could be kinda human if I only had a heart". By gollie... we need to all go dig in the EMERALD CITY.... just follow the yellow brick road! Hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa .... tee hee.... :-P
OD, try this. On the Carl Neid bridge you can see 3M (fettle=Mining), or he's a man of great mettle, or as a politician one who mettles. There are two (duel) bridges. The stage in the "depressed" area. A park (smile on your face) on the hill. What do you think?
jokysu, that's why i still have a dial-up account at the u to back up my dsl :)
scribe, that depends on how well junior behaves and what his intentions are here. from the looks of it he reveres us, so i guess it's ok. and what's this course i hear about? you didn't have that at the gig at mcg's didja?
junior, please don't prove me wrong. i can get kinda cranky:)
Wolf,better known to us veterans as 'books rate'LOL! It's ESTRAbrook and it is the street that runs from the palm lot to the conervatory to lexington.
actually scribe, it's estabrook. no first 'r'.
Ok, I don't get out much! If I went to the zoo I'd probably get locked up, lol.
Ares,we were out there from about 11:30 to 12;15,had to go do lunch and get them to school after that!
como is still # 1 on our list
Well you are a wolf!LOLOL!
2 kids, scribe? was that you coming in as i was headed back (in my black jacket) towards the conservatory and my car?
hoping next clue narrows down area
You are right Ares,typo! Sorry!
zone 4,5,6
7
19K Joe
scribe, dear, i'm always right. in the rare event that i'm wrong, please go back and re-read the first sentence.
Maybe Ares,we drove aound there........I have a purple columbia jacket and teal snowpants...
Has anyone run into the Donut Man? He always comes around with free donuts to everyone who is digging....nice guy!
Is anyone getting the "early" early edition tonight or are we gonna have to suffer till midnight?
Nice Joe Ian!
Yeah right Ares,I'll file that somewhere REAl important!:)

mighta been you, scribe. i honestly can't remember much of anything colourful with all that white out there :) i was, how shall we say, tool and boot free. (stupid, stupid, stupid, but not wrong).
Cluemaster is getting it. I suppose if a number is involve in the clue, it could pertain to the zone at Como.
circular file? dang. there's that word again.
Well,Ares,we took a stab at it bein a couple of the first,but at least we had tools..........what the heck kinda hunter are you anyway???
Haven't heard from the donut man this year.
wolf - thats interesting, but only people with "the guide" would benefit from that. Or are the zones listed elsewhere?
I think it is at Como
not necisarily a number, just something that points me to the general area
Ares,that your alter ego?
I just figured out that a park that big might be broken down. Have no idea one zone from the next.
I was out scouting, ok? it's been quite a while since i've even been at como (statue photography excluded, but it didn't count since there wasn't any snow there, and the trees still had leaves on them) and given that i was an idiot and parked by the main zoo entrance. well, it was nice (and needed) exercise anyway.
ok, who thinks they're a medallion god, now? there's only one of me.
oh, and scribe, i am an extraordinary hunter. don't you read anything? :)
I am now putting Como over Hidden Falls
What would be people's reasons for ruling out Phalen? I was just there and it seems like almost all the clues fit-if applied loosely.
Ares,son,listen to me,you really didn't figure snow to be at Como? You are a disgrace,you should always have somethin in your trunk during the hunt.Weren't you at the basic training course????

Thank goodness it didn't have to come to that.
Shar - that's the problem...we can apply these clues to ANY park!!
Ares,are you and jr. gonna have a duel in the frog pond???:)

1) impersonate my typing style and my choice spellings when the opportunity should present itself. 2) realise that i've had como over hidden falls for somewhere around 24 hours, now.
Phalen's MAN OF METTLE has me baffled.
Scribe, Ares, you guys are both experts
Ares - I don't even remember my question from this afternoon. Too many questions today, I can't even keep it all straight.
Reggman - I am having similar trouble. The only circular I think of is disc, but I think you already knew it. Also, I couldn't get yesterday's or today's clue to fit well, so now I don't know what to do tomorrow.
Ares,stop talkin to yourself and take your meds!LOL!
Ares,will now take a break due to an untimely identity crisis
Scribe, you are pathetic compared to Ares! LOLOLOL

Mettle @ phalen could be johnson.
Scribe, I think you and Allison have a real duel here, are you gonna pick side for the cOmO and failing teams?
