Recent Clues: 
 


 

Clue #1 Congrats to the finder, to all a reminder 
To hunt hard from first to last clues 
Medallion I is history. Now a new mystery 
Begins -- strap on your hunting shoes 

To some its demented, for all unprecedented 
But hunters’ thirst must be quenched 
Tell sister and brother we’ve hidden another 
In a park where a body can be benched 

Our 2nd prize? Don’t laugh -- 10-thou cut in half 
So get out there even if it’s snowy 
And as a special bonus -- some might say an onus -- 
A meal with our own Clueless Joey 

Good hunting to you, let this be the first clue 
Think of a woodsy retreat 
It won’t be so hard if you channel the bard 
You’ll get warm and smell pretty sweet
Clue #2 If you\'re thinking big you\'re sure to dig 
Near flora with growing pain 
Winter or summer is never a bummer 
A menagerie of fun wild or tame
Clue #3 Success on the third clue will never do 
We had to stash a second 
Round you go if you seek to know 
Where swatters of orbs are beckoned
Clue #4: A walk in the park can be a lark 
If cell phones are left at home 
Heed the siren of your desirin\' 
And do not revolt against this poem
Clue #5 Over hill and dale hit the trail 
With a handy locating device 
Fulfill your wishes like loaves and fishes 
And put your victory on ice
Clue #6 A famous singer and a diamond dinger 
Might put you oh so close to the spot 
With the whites of your eyes you should look for the prize 
Within this convenient plot
Clue #7 Don\'t turn up your noses at the city of roses 
The home of the park that you seek 
It\'s just north of town so come on down 
Our hunt is not for the meek
Clue #8 Don\'t go mental just head for Central 
Lexington Avenue will show you the way 
Your spirits won\'t sag when you see the big flag 
Into the trees you want to stray

I don't even want to hunt and i'm sure it's at Phalen I get the channel. It's obsure and I hate the way people are making my son out to be and then make Jake out to be. I'm deflated from the hunt. You all go find it

Just keep in mind they do that for ratings. And to get people like you to call in. It worked.

You did a nice job for being awake 3 days though. :smile:

it sounded to me you were proud of rob and gave your history of the hunt - you stood up for jake too. No worries here :smile: dont be depressed - they (kq) obviously dont know much about the hunt.

sanny is a PP writer and had nothing but good things to say about all but ripped jake for not giving rob some jing.

was fun to hear it on the radio - i listen usually to the mornign show in the afternoons on the replay.

I'm glad I have a kid that understands directions on how to work stereo equipment and computers. I'm taping it now at home.

Thanks. Does anyone know how to tape that right off the computer? I can tape it manually through my speakers but I would assume it would be better to have it digital.

"where a body can be benched"

Not sure if this has already been shared. Maybe this references a word/name on a bench at a bus stop adjacent to the park. I keep thinking of all the realator ads I always see on those benches. Anybody know of a St Paul realator with the name Pea"body". Or maybe an auto body ad on the bench. My 2 cents anyway.

This is from my friend..Ithink off the pp....

The poet is Robert Burns who wrote, 'A Bard's Epitaph'

The channel is English (st)

Burns and English meet at Indian Mounds at the same patch of woods that the capture the flag hunt from '05 or '04. Remember the cluewriter had to come up with this fast and he/she already had the Flag landmarks in recent memory.

The "benched' refers to supreme court justices William Douglas (pt Road) from Minnesota and Clarence (Thomas).

The warm and sweet is probably what it's hidden in.

Lat me paraphrase for you...ahem..."The Cooler Crew are losers. I want attention. Look at me. I can be offensive. I have feelings of self-importance. I'm a narcisist." ... that pretty much sums it up.
