You're bound to lose your colic

It means you'll stop whining when you find it

I think it was mentioned a long time ago about maplewood being sweet....

And unleashed dogs (beasts) having fun and frolicing around in a caged in place around trees will keep your kids from whining, ecspecially when you bring them to the water park afterwards.

In the card game euchre, the only cards in play in the deck are the A,K,Q,J,10,9 of each suit.

It is a four player game. Each player will the bid number of tricks he thinks he can take (up to six). Once he has the bid, he will reveal the suit he would like trump to be.

(when you play out the hand, and you have the highest card, you are said to have taken a trick. Trump is the highest suit, the suit that beats all others. So, if spades are called trump, then a player who plays the Ace of Hearts will lose the trick if the Ace of Spades is subsequently played by another player)

The rank of the cards is as follows Jack of trump (right bower), the other Jack of the same color as trump (left bower), Ace of trump, King of trump,Queen of trump, 10 of trump, 9 of trump.

Non-trump suits are ranked conventionally. A-K-Q-(J)-10-9.

the odd thing is the Left Bower--if Clubs are Trump, the Jack of Clubs (right Bower) is the most powerful card in the deck, and the Jack of Spades (same color) is the Left Bower--and is the second most powerful card in the deck.

I actually learned the word as Bauer, but I'm from German-land. In German, it means farmer.

Not that I can make any connection between the clue and the card game, but I thought maybe somebody else could, if they had an outline of the rules. Or, we could just play cards.

they have pig races each yea at ramsey county fair. and petting zoo.

The formula companies have "sensative" formulas to reduce colic,

If formula was just started and mom is still breast feeding, gong to just breat feeding is another idea.

trying soy formula's (no milk protien) is another option.

burping more often can help.

Well. Gotta kiss Swede Hollow goodbye. Dang.

In my mind, it won't ever be at CoNo again. At least not for me. I'm so sick of that park. It's just an easy park for a lazy Clue Writer.

Arbor and bower have both been used...

It takes all sorts to come and play sports - why to come - souhnds like immagrant community like hmong, itilian bocci, scottish festival...

In this sweet land of fun and frolic - movie sweetland

With bower enclosed and beasts exposed - zoo, woods, protestor camping on harriett,

You're bound to lose your colic - quit you belly acheing when you find it.

I got it!

Children's playground with one of those climb and slide tower-thighys and bobbing-on-a-spring riding animals.

Newell? That was Boxmeyer's last Hunt...

Or was it? Maybe not, wasn't Newell 2000? I think it was. Oh well. And I can't get the rest of the Clues to fit Newell.

But I know there's a children's playground in the park!

This clue seems to scream East Picnic Grounds side of Como at first glance.

Seems each day if you take just that clue, it's telling us a different park.

I know there has to be some commonality.

Bower made me think of a jack (card games) and Jackson street. Then, an archer, using a bow.

My other thought is colic (not generally treated at Gillette, by the way) could be meant as "Lose your cowlick" (as in the hair that Alphalfa sported in Little Rascals) and it could relate to a good old-fashioned scalping!

ATTENTION


I have a rather compelling argument for a specific location in a Major park. I need to do a scouting trip to the area after work to confirm specifics. Where's this evenings' gathering for the Clue?

Wow. I just had a great sign of being lucky. I found the lost remote. If I can fid that, finding the med should be easy. Guess I gotta go out and look tonight after work.

Hey I have those little animal ride thingy's at the park across the street from me! No wonder it didn't say St. Paul in clue 1! IT's IN EAGAN!! HAHAHA

Niquil loves me and made me half way normal this morning... I WILL BE OUT TONIGHT! I'm off to work shortly will share more real noodles when I get back but I think we are not looking at Como that would just be a lazy clue writer I think it's more indepth than that. Have a great noodle/diggin' day!

makes perfect sense...look at the "deer" clue of last year...

Whew...

Slogged on throught this morning.. If the "unleash" piece in clue 1 is talking about dog parks, could the "beasts" in clue 5 be the same hounds running around?

Seen reference to "farm" in some posts, and wondering about a Shepard, does a shepard hang around in front of his flock or behind? Wondering about Shepard road, and areas along the river with water and ice?

Good Morning everyone. Not sure about where everyone lives but I woke up to a winter wonderland type setting with frozen white tress everywhere. I always think that it looks awesome when that happens.

however that is not going to help me find the puck.

yes, I like that one too. I put in Beasts Exposed and the first one is Speedboat Sex.

Plus other sex related ones.

A porn shop near the park?

Doubt that with the Hunt being family orientated and all...
