He was trying to lure the Cooler Crew to his site after PP, maybe prior. Kept pushing live chat I think. Terry?

Oh, I've seen that site.

I think Scribe posted there.

Or is that not the place I'm thinking?

Darrin is becoming a wintercarnival icon....

I would be very suprised if he doesn't become king at some point in his life.

I better suck up so I can be knighted...

http://www.wctitan.com/north_wind/darrin_johnson.htm

He is also a member of the st. paul clown club, shiner, st. paul jaycees (past member), owner of the flower shop on rice.

I know he's a past guard...

http://www.goofie.biz/ this is his best friend...but I don't know who's who.

You should be a guard!

Last I heard, they were in desperate need of them.

Not that I'm saying they'd need to be desperate to take you.

That's not what I meant.

if it's the same guy I'm thinking of, he was annoying as hell at the pp boards posting over and over about his live chat, and the only time anyone really went there were the few times pp crashed. but it's probably a different guy if he's friends with kitch... :wink:

I never had a problem with him.

He preferred live chat.

No big deal.

Dang, we have a wedding on the 21st so we probably won't be able to come to the Pre-Dig Gig.

I can't believe the hunt is only two ? weeks away!

Is anybody else worried that this hunt will not live up to last year's? I thought that the medallion was almost secondary to the camaraderie of the firepit and the getting to know so many new people that, outside of the hunt, I would never bump into. That said, I am just in agony with the anticipation and cannot be productive because I know the hunt is coming. What type of hunt do coolerheads think it will be this year? Good, bad or ugly?

Art,

I for one can't wait for the hunt to start. I've got the entire 12 days off of work and plan to be everywhere I can be.

    Ian - Addicting is exactly what it is. Reading back with the perspective of it being this many years later is simply amazing at times the things that were said and the things done at that time.

    Medallion Dream:

    last night (when I could sleep) I dreamt that the clue was posted at midnight on a giant billboard. The clue pointed us twords 4th and Minnesota street corner.

    also Ed Norton and Morgan Freeman got into a tif and decided to satisfy the arguement with a 'duel' -- Freemans daughter talked about her dad was a marksman. Norton had 2 young daughters...... I woke up before the shots were fired but I believe that Freeman killed Norton.

    damn Me2 - Norton is HOT.. he can't die, it's only the first dream.

    maybe he will come back as his own brother with amnesia tonight in your dream..

    rule #1 about duels: never challenge a swordsman to one. the recipient of the challenge always gets to pick the weapon.

    what were you looking for, ian?

    that Darrin guy, although I don't know if he used that name, or what year. but search for live chat .. that'd do it. just curious, as Tim said, it was very annoying.

    Oh, and I think it's 2002, where you can use the "more" button ... VERY cool

    Wish was from the 99 hunt. I'll have to find that again. I remember he showed up at the rehash at Conway for just a little while. He was a scrawny kid with some obvious issues.
