Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.
But I think you may have a point...there are probably a lot of folks who would just as soon not have to slog through the chit chat. And if I'm not close enough to them to e-mail with news during the year, they probably don't care to see it here, anyway. We can catch up over our shovels!
Ian, I've read Millet (SH & The Ice Palace Murders). I'm a big fan o'his. They're WONDERFUL reading!!!
It was sssssooooo cool to read 'The Ice Palace Murders' and kind'a picture Winter Carnivals from a way long time ago. Wish Sherlock had lived later... Maybe he'd have been involved in a Med Hunt!!!
Ian, Ian, Ian! Eags izz fur real. Real smart, real funny, real pretty...
I'm sitting here laughing so hard! Remember bock in '98 when you and I thought the other was a MomPress Spy/Employee, planted here to take notes, get ideas, patrol, etc.? You thought *I* worked for Mom (The Wizard behind the curtain's shuddering...), and I thought YOU did!!!
Too funny!!!!!!!
There's been a billion great times in this Cooler.
You people are welcome to drink... Jake knows whats up though, alchohol impares your ability to hunt medallions(or do anything for that matter). This (and the law) is why I won't drink alchohol during the medallion hunt(or ever). I would rather be cold. On the other hand, WHEN I find the medallion there may just be a party. I hope jim_the_hunter doesn't see this.
sorry jake,I don't own it (I WISH!!) I just manage it.but i can still hook you up!! all the employees get what they want for cost so if you need something let me know!!(especially if you find the med!!!) or on the other hand, we just fired one of our guys and are looking for someone to take his place!
Rushmore - Very nice statement about the excitement may mean we're freaks. I was thinking about the same thing yesterday when I visited the cooler for the first time in 2002. I couldn't believe I was looking so early.
It must be an addiction. Every year I think I will just read the clues and try to figure them out for the fun of it. Every year I think I won't dig because it is too darn cold out there, but every year something draws me out to dig and keeps me out there even though I may have dug up every place I thought it would be.
I am not sure I am ready for the addiction to start again. Oh well....here it goes. ARGHHHHHHH
Hope everyone is good. Can't wait for that first clue. :)
Jokysu, we start getting anxious Halloween with sumbuddy checking in here. Thanksgiving, few more folks chomping at the bit... Christmas, ittiz open the presents and check out The Cooler! LOL!!! And by New Year's, we're ready to pound down the doors at MomPress to make her git The Hunt underway! :D
You will find no one with obsessions here. (Wanna buy a bridge?)
HOLLYWOOD!!!! Missed you last year sssssooooooo much!!! Particularly your slingshot! Still got your slingshot? Be shure and bring all your toys to The Re-Hash Bash. You've got the neatest toys...
Hhhuuummmm... You think Phalen, huh? I wonder...
Two weeks and one day, two weeks and one day... TWO WEEKS AND ONE DAY!!!!
Timmers, I'm with you... I'm horrible enuff at The Clues sober, gods only know what spin I'd come up with 1/2 punchy! LOL!!!
Don't think Brown would bee too happy with the headlines the next day, "Former Cod's Fiancee Arrested For Public Intoxication" accompanied by a Kodak Moment o'me dancing on a pic-a-nic table with a lampshade on my noggin!!!!!!!
Too, I thought we couldn't drink in The Parks???
I'm gonna take the safe route... McGoverns with a DD. Or your party with a DD!
I too checked way back. I am so excited about the hunt this year. Too bad I don't have much time off from work to hunt. Maybe one of these years I will actually take the whole two weeks off. :)
Well maybe I will be lucky this time around, and I will figure out the clues and go right out to the correct spot.
What am I thinking......that won't happen to me. I was even searching the wrong park for awhile last year. LOL.
Have a great day. I better get some work done. Won't be working too hard in a couple weeks.
If I'm guessin' rite... Our WW hit a "gentleman's club" (WHY are they called THAT???) and had a Kodak Moment with one o'the buxum women that was 'working' there...
Tha'da be *my* guess...
Work hard, Jokysu... VERY HARD. In two weeks you'll never be able to concentrate on work (the entire TCs should give all Hunters off as they're not worth Bo-Diddly at work during The Hunt. Who, in their rite mind, can concentrate during THE HUNT?????) one widdo smidgin'.
Who would have thought we would have lived through all of this Sept 11 crap and be here in the cooler, for another year of fun facts and clues to the greatest hunt in the world. Well best of luck to all of you and here is where I think it will be this year....
1. Harriet Island 2. Crosby/Hidden Falls Park 3. Phalen
and you know this how, jt? sure there's that one pic i sent ya, but you still don't have any proof at all that i exist.
actually i was told today that i'm rather strange. something about keeping a post hole digger in my trunk for the purposes of retrieving lost frisbee-golf discs from the bottom of ponds on frisbee golf courses. there oughtta be about enough ice now to take tbe old boat and baseball bat out on too.
Just a thought...here in the U.P. they give all the kids off school for opening of deer season, and its just assumed that all hunters will be at "Deer Camp". If you need your plumbing or furnace fixed during that time period, you are just S.O.L. This came into being because everybody empowered themselves to NOT be at work or school so they can be at Deer Camp. Deer season lasts a little over two weeks...does that sound familiar?
Medallion Hunters unite! If we just don't show up at work, en masse, they will eventually get the message, and the two weeks of medallion hunting time will be as a sacred holiday.
JOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Clues, I need clues, can't we start it early?
Its the medallion hunt chat. I'll keep my comments strictly to that from now on. :o)
And to answer your question, nope, not on here.
We can start the noodling early. We can start the conspiracy theory early. We can start the paranoia early. And I think we already have ;)
Doesn't matter to me if we talk about stuff like that. It's nice to have fun like that at times :)
But I think you may have a point...there are probably a lot of folks who would just as soon not have to slog through the chit chat. And if I'm not close enough to them to e-mail with news during the year, they probably don't care to see it here, anyway. We can catch up over our shovels!
Hay, Eags! Nice to see you bock!
Howdy Kids, LLady, Jakey, Ian, Med 2k2, et al!
Eags, you getting censored ALREADY??? Gods!
What did you post now?
Stink we'll be using brooms, snot shovels...
You do any park scoping while you were here?
Joe!!! (With a do-nut in the middle...)
Heinz 57 JOE!
A donut in the sauce...
Green, did you check out that link? Any ideas what I should do with them?
LOL, at Ian and the '57 Joe!!!!
Ian, I've read Millet (SH & The Ice Palace Murders). I'm a big fan o'his. They're WONDERFUL reading!!!

Where is DDY? Bee? Ittiz? Allison? Mom? Dad? etc..etc..etc
Green: ygm

Wonder what this year will bring?
Wonder what this year will bring?

I have melded my work day's so I can dig more this year, 2 12hr days and 1 14hr! that leaves me 4 days a week to dig! I'ts mine this time!
Liquor Lady can hook us up with some stuff to have a good time I'm sure ;) Palinjoe!
MMMMMMMM! SOME PEPERMINT SCHNAPPS AND HOT COCOA SHOULD KEEP US NICE AND TOASTY IN THE WEE HOURS OF THE MORNING!

Liquor Lady... you own the store??? If so, email me and let me know where, I need to stock up on Jagermeister.
The time is nearing for the start
We wait all year for these two weeks
Anticipation brings a rapidly-beating heart
Our excitement may mean we're freaks,
but that matters not,
For we enjoy the pleasure,
Of hunting for the treasure.
I hope one of us finds it this year, I dont' care who!
sorry jake,I don't own it (I WISH!!) I just manage it.but i can still hook you up!! all the employees get what they want for cost so if you need something let me know!!(especially if you find the med!!!) or on the other hand, we just fired one of our guys and are looking for someone to take his place!
Liquor Lady, you don't go to school then?

Can't wait for 2002 since I missed last year's hunt. The Cooler Rocks and so does this year's obvious site - Phalen Park!
Hollywood
Hey Dave,

Marning, 'Heads!

Holy crap. It took me all morning to slog through the posts from you fools. Starting b4 christmas, isn't that a tad obsessive?

A big, Howdy There Jesus Christ, PalinaJOE!
ok something is very much up. i know my nic here is ares, but someone's stolen my other name? what's up with that? today has been a *very* weird day.
I am ready.
but someone's stolen my other name?
Really? I haven't seen anyone using "Princess Gwendolyn".
Very strange, indeed.
watch it jt, them's fightin' words :) especially since gwendolyn is actually my mom's name.
especially since gwendolyn is actually my mom's name.
LOL!
That makes it even stranger.
As if you two could get any stranger.... ;)
Ares is much stranger in real life than he is here.
:-)
Me, I'm just an ordinary average guy.
and you know this how, jt? sure there's that one pic i sent ya, but you still don't have any proof at all that i exist.
actually i was told today that i'm rather strange. something about keeping a post hole digger in my trunk for the purposes of retrieving lost frisbee-golf discs from the bottom of ponds on frisbee golf courses. there oughtta be about enough ice now to take tbe old boat and baseball bat out on too.
something about keeping a post hole digger in my trunk.......
It's worse than I thought.
but you still don't have any proof at all that i exist.
I don't have proof that I exist.
the post hole digger also comes in handy for hunting small blue chunks of lucite too.
Maybe I'm NOT real after all. LOL!!

Yes, but by massing up like that, it cuts down the chances of actually finding the medallion!
You know you're a medallion hunter junkie when all your vacation time for the year is used up in the first month by searching for the medallion....
