My mock hunt is going to start Oct 16!!!! 2 clues a day, 12 clues in all! Clues 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 will be given as close to 9 AM as possible. Clues 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 will be given as close to 3 PM as possible. Right here. Clues 1 and 12 are special so they will be given at special times.
Prizes: 2 pairs of tickets to Minnesota Wild home games (tbd), 2 St Paul Saints hats, 2 Pioneer Press hats, 1 DVD of all the interviews for No Time For Cold Feet along with the Zephy news story and the story on last years finders from CM, 1 bag of m and m's
Clue #1
I captured the flag nearby burial mounds
But if you look near there you’ll be left in the dark
Because it’s a sacred area that is out of bounds
One thing's the same: it's in a Ramsey County Park
Clue #2
A post every year, hey have a beer
When you find this you're on your way
But to which park should I steer?
You might find out later today
Clue #3
The typical clue that doesn't tell you poo
Usually comes around clue number three
The park has tables, grills, and a shelter too
Is that all? Not when you find two twenty
Clue #4
Live in the present, but remember the past
A one, a two, one red, one blue
Other than a vote, what can be cast?
Another treasure was hidden here too
Clue #5
A street or a few can split into two
Many times this causes a plight
Even you can figure out this clue
Should you think of nuggets and a time with no light
Clue #6
The battle for the axe was settled by fate
In an overly heated battle
Look near the reason this bout causes such hate
And the rest will follow you like cattle
Clue #7
Normally you wouldn’t re-bake veal
But in this case you should give it a try
Figuring this clue is a pretty big deal
And if you don’t get it your chances might die
Clue #8
Step up to the challenge, move away from the lake
Rockin with Ben Folds may offer a guide
The prize can be taken without using a rake
Just look for a good spot for a rodent to hide
Clue #9
Terry, Shawn, Dan, Scott, and Jason
Couldn't have been any better
They teamed with Johnson and Johnson
To help me hide my Wild sweater

This article is about the term "Dark age(s)" as a characterisation of the (Early) Middle Ages in Europe. For other uses of the phrase, see Dark Ages (disambiguation).
The phrase the Dark Ages (or Dark Age) is most commonly known in relation to the European Early Middle Ages (from about A.D. 476 to about 1000), but it is also used to denote other periods from which events are relatively obscure because of our lack of knowledge of them, usually through lack of written records.
This concept of a "Dark Age" was first created by Italian humanists and was originally intended as a pejorative sweeping criticism of the character of Late Latin literature. Later historians expanded the term to include not only the lack of Latin literature, but a lack of contemporary written history and material cultural achievements in general. Popular culture has further expanded on the term as a vehicle to depict the Middle Ages as a time of backwardness, extending its pejorative use and expanding its scope. The rise of archaeology and other specialities in the 20th century has shed much light on the period and offered a more nuanced understanding of its positive developments. Other terms of periodization have come to the fore: Late Antiquity, the Early Middle Ages and the Great Migrations, depending on which aspects of culture are being emphasized. Most modern historians dismiss the notion that the era was a "Dark Age" by pointing out that this idea was based on ignorance of the period combined with popular stereotypes: many previous authors would simply assume that the era was a dismal time of violence and stagnation and use this assumption to prove itself.
In Britain and the United States, "Dark Ages" has occasionally been used by professionals, with severe qualification, as a term of periodization. This usage is intended as non-judgmental and simply means the relative lack of written record, "silent" as much as "dark."
