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.

Hi everyone. I apologize for offending anyone/everyone yesterday. If it must be known, I offended myself a little and even went back and deleted some posts.

Don't want to be persona non grata (sp?) in here

I usually prefer cooler to warmer - but today was a bit too cooler for me.

Ares, thanks for the 27900 joe, although I see I wasn't worthy of the 28000 joe. :)

Can I still call you Ch'Ahreez?

It was quicker than I expected. And my computer runs faster now - thank goodness-I definately had patience. I had too much to do though to come back and give more history lessons :)

Obscenity. Speech defined as obscenity is outside the boundaries of First Amendment protection. As defined by Miller v. California, obscenity is speech that (1) the average person, applying contemporary community standards, would find, taken as a whole, to appeal to the prurient interest; (2) depicts or describes in a patently offensive manner specifically defined sexual conduct; and (3) lacks as a whole serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value. The definition of obscenity, developed in 1973, focuses on a local "community standard," and has proven to be the crux of litigation surrounding internet censorship cases, which by their nature cannot depend upon local community standards.

By nature, I'm a free speech guy. Having said that, this is a community provided for discussion of the medallion hunt. I'm not telling anybody else what to do, but I'm gonna try to clean up my act, as much as I can anyway. I don't think I'll ever be squeaky clean, but what the heck.

Daddy, what's beastiality mean? There's a question I don't want to raise for THX... :-0

actually frosti, in here we do have something vaguely related to community standards. aren't a whole lot of people around who aren't from the twin cities.

Holy Smokes you guys! Great discussion last night about this board! I am gonna have to think about this for a bit...by the way, it did not help that for the past 3 days channel 11 Today Show & Katie Couric covered "exs" during daytime tv! Katie even commented that she has "talked more about it in the past 3 days than her whole life"! I think we all needed a way to laugh and not be so angry or bummed about this hunt, we did it with comedy (which Katie says we should do)...I do feel better. Thanks everyone for someone to type with!

"You mean you'll bring me fifty eggs a day? And I can come back and visit Babs and Cotton and Crackers? And you'll buy me a new girdle and bra, and pretty underthings?"

ian i don't even wanna know where that quote came from.

I know Ares. I just wanted to put that out on the table. I really don't think we've technically crossed into the "obscenity" category according to the definition. However, I do know that I'd have a hard time proving any serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value. And, I know that this appealed to my prurient interests. lol

It was on the whole time I was talking to you all-Today Show and The Other Half -that was all they covered for 3 days. Coincidence? I am not the only one to blame...but I guess I could have turned the TV off :)

Most of what we post has none of the above, my own posts included. Are we only to post comments limited to the above standard here?
