you say take the 'piggy' path

home, roam
math
These two points -street between the 2 parks
comb
path

all sound like Phalen and Como

It would have been cool if that were it :)

No piggys in this JOE!

Oh come on Ares, you of all people should at least get the fairly basic math reference in there.

This little piggy stayed home, this little piggy did roam
And if you use geometry as your form of math
These two points will determine where you should comb
If first you follow along their little piggy path.

Whats up Allie??

Just because Mr. Phalen is the first felon that springs to mind?

Oh yes, my guess is Hidden Falls Park.

well there was sara jane olson too but that was wrong also. the path from her house leads to hillcrest rec.

actually AW no--'path to the felon' looks anagramed or like a rhyme with Phalen

ThoseMedallingKids

Actually for me, Marydale was the last one I got.

Actually it's "path of the felon". I suppose you could extract the letters for Phalen out of there, but you'd still have a t, o, f, t, h, e, f, and o to do something with.

Nope

Once upon a time, the sandstone on the bluffs by the Ford Plant was mined and turned into glass right on site. And, if I am not mistaken, that is why the dam was built there. To provide electricity for the operation.

Conway is correct for #5 (I'm going to assume that is the one you were suggesting it for).

Fri, 01/17/2003 - 11:10 AM Permalink
Liquor Lady

yes it is. :)

The first part of line 3 is a phrase taken almost verbatim from the field of math mentioned in the clue.

mmm, good thinking mac, that's probably it.

leelabell

You're very confident, TMK.

Anyway, how are you? Having a good year? Getting married?

There will be no remorse if you stay on course,
But don't think I'm trying to be directoral.
You can't pass in this park without force,
And don't mistake it for one that's electoral.
