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.

Nope. So many o'us "to and fro" (from Chair-O-Key...). Post, then run do something or somethings; come bock; check; go 'fro' again... I don't pay too much attention to the times.

Like, I'm doing the warsh, doing paperwork, making phone calls...

Once A 'Head, always A Head. ("You can check out, but you can never leave...") Glad you got a 'putter this year!

It IS fun! As you know from lurking, ideas and thoughts fly fast and furious once the clues start coming out... And folks will say, "Bye! I'm outta here! I know where it is!" and you won't hear from them for hours, or... You run into them in the parks. And then you start noodling all over again mano-a-mano!

JOE!!!

It used to be almost assumed that anyone with a putter was male. Most of us women were thought to be males. Interesting how that's changed!

Because the San Jose Mercury News is a Midknight-Rider sister newspaper and they used to have a Hunt, too. I'm sure a take-off on ours. But the paper stopped doing it because people out there dug everything up and clear to China. Anyway, my good friend in CA? She used to live in SJ and I'm gonna ask her what ittiz like to hunt w/no snow. It never snows (or rains) in southern CA...

So... How would you hide The Med in CA, with no snow, and get it to blend in? In a California naval orange!

Makes perfect sense!

llady either that or allison's list from coolercrew.com about the treasure hunter training progam:

1. Whenever a snow emergency is declared, follow the snowplows around and completely dig out all the cars they plow in.

2. As a big storm is about to hit, stand on your front steps with your back to the yard. Toss your car keys over your shoulder. Go back inside and then go find them the next day.

3. Read up on Occam's Razor (All else being equal, the simplest solution tends to be the correct one).

4. Do every word jumble, crossword puzzle, and search-a-word you can get your hands on.

5. Make a list of all the things you can do with $10,000.

6. Turn off the heat in your home for 16 hours a day.

7. Only sleep three hours a night.

8. Move all the snow from your back yard to your front yard.

9. Spend all night on the Internet with total strangers discussing who killed JFK.

10. Commit the Cooler Crew and Treasure Hunter's Guide Websites to memory.
