2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

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.

TMK- I work there. As far as discounts, well- if you apply for a Target credit card, you can have a handy 10% discount! And yes, you need something! It's dollar sale..... lots of goodies on sale and lots and lots of merchandise on clearance! Hey, we set some of the Valentines merch today. You could get a start on stuff for that new gf! ;)

FINALLY!!

I got through slogging the 5-600 posts since this morning. This is going to get even more difficult when we're all *noodling* clues, not just shooting the breeze!

Who was it that was thinking about Swede Hollow? I really, REALLY wanted it to be there 2 years ago (when it was Newell). That Vikings depression clue - what could have fit better?

I actually SAW the movie people, and they interviewed me and took my picture, and I'm not *anywhere* on their site, so don't feel bad about not getting to see them.

Hopefully, since this year I don't have a 1 year old to take care of, I'll be able to get out more at night.

Scribey owns a casino?

That would explain why JT always pays with nickels.

I was the one who said Swede Hallow. Maybe it's just because I've been going past it on the bus since June.

Mom! Trent doesnt have time for the site, some one else is managing it, and they know little about No Time For Cold Feet. Tattiz prolly why.

Emma and Hannah's Mom- Allison was the one I believe who had a feeling about Swede Hollow. I'm like you too, having been interviewed and my picture taken (I see myself in a few of the stills) but I'm not listed. Oh well. It's all about the hunt, and there's this year also. Just stick close to Tim, when he finds it, we can all get on camera then!

Someone else was looking for a way to automatically refresh the page. YES you can do that. At the bottom of the page, click on "subscribe". Once you have added the board to your "subscription list", then when you're in your idle time, if you click on "message center", the computer will scan the boards you have subscribed to as often as you specify, and beep/ping when there is a new message.

No big deal to me - I was just trying to make light of the whole "film" thing. It's not a big deal to me one way or the other. And as tired as I must've looked in any pictures they got of me last year, I don't know if I'd blame them anyway! LOL!

ok the old creative juices are flowing. how's this for a start and feel free to add in anything you think i'm missing (and palinajoe):

On a dark snowbound parkway,

White band on my head.

Warm smell from the fire rings,

I'm wishin' I was in bed.

Up ahead in the distance,

I saw a cauldron of pain.

My heart grew heavy and my shovel fell;

I'm at the frog pond again.

Is anyone else doubting the robustness of this site to handle the load we are going to give it in 2002? I'm just wondering ... can the Water Cooler really handle us .. or have we grown beyond this? I don't think I'm being paranoid or anything, but I want my info and communication link to all of you when the going gets hot ...and I think it's gonna get real hot in January 2002!!!

What do ya think?

Mom, sorry, got busy helping a friend with a problem. But I live by Arlignton high school. The only bus that goes down Arlignton goes back up Jackson, along Larpenteur, down Arcade, then comes into downtown along E 7th. That's why I see Swede Hallow.

I was thinking to myself,

"There ain't no medallion in this here park."

Then I got out my shovel,

and the snow moved away.

There were voices 'round that fire ring,

thought I heard them say,
