Mr. News maybe???

leelabell - 05:01pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22474 of 25017)

MR. NEWSSSSS87 sounds curiously like someone else I know.

Just talked to Me2 who was with the gang at Gabe's. They are doing some filming at Mounds and then some of those folks are also coming over to McGovern's tonight. We should have quite a crowd.

Terry Valentine - 05:02pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22475 of 25017)

The news is covering the ice sculptures in Rice Park...they're melting and will soon be a puddle!

I went down there last night...drove by today...there was already less there

Matt - 05:02pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22478 of 25017)

The frenzy is upon us.

...So if we go to the re-hash bash, we could also bring a "memorial" to be placed at "the site"???? Who's game? or is this just a silly concept?

Um...Mac-Grove Man - could you change your tag line to read noon instead of 1? We don't want to confuse people any more than they already are.

Wanna know something cool? I was on the phone at McGoverns at the same time as THX Now they think we are bringing a horde--so everybody up to the upstairs game room at 7:30 I hate to let them down...

Terry Valentine - 05:07pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22487 of 25017)

They wouldn't keep a room for us last week either. We just had to find one and take over the place.

_-THX 1138-_ - 05:07pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22488 of 25017)

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

I was on the phone at McGoverns at the same time as THX

LOL!

I say good for the 16yr old! Especially if he got any response, answers or feedback from this extremely frustrating (at times) Water Cooler News Board... like the proverbial Stan Lee says "Nuff said..." til next year, Digg "bin dissed" the med "bin stolen" Rex

Terry Valentine - 05:08pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22492 of 25017)

Well we've always done this as a noonish thing. No reason to change that this year. We even have an open building! That's one good thing about this being found at a Park n Rec.

Can we email the writer of the clues??????????? Lets just find out where he lives and go see him!

Terry Valentine - 05:20pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22513 of 25017)

We're going to McGoverns to cry in our drinks of choice tonight...and will rehash the whole thing on Sunday.

I don't want to say I'm depressed but, this just doesn't feel right. What are we going to do this weekend now?

Terry Valentine - 05:22pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22516 of 25017)

THX - Tonight we cry, tomorrow we prepare whatever we're bringing to the rehash on Sunday, Sunday we rehash and Monday life will sorta return to whatever normal is.

Thanks Terry. I will get more pics up in the next days/week.

I have to go figure out what Trent should shoot while he's still out there. I'm assuming the snow sculptures and ice sculptures are melting...

_-THX 1138-_ - 05:25pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22522 of 25017)

ATTENTION EVERYONE

I have a PalinaJOE!

And now I'm off like a dirty shirt.

Bye

_-THX 1138-_ - 05:26pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22523 of 25017)

I'm assuming the snow sculptures and ice sculptures are melting...

Driving by Rice Park last night on the way to get the clue, they had some really cool ice sculptures out there so, he might get lucky.

Lisa's mommy - 05:26pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22524 of 25017)

My Dalliance and Lil Slim we got Jipped!!

I just saw the winner on the news they said they basically tripped over it....ha ha he kicked a piece of paper picked it up and voila

Terry Valentine - 05:27pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22525 of 25017)

They are melting about as fast as they can carve them. This weather is unbelievable. Who woulda thought?

Good thing there wasn't an ice palace this year. They would have never been able to pull it off.

Many of the carnival events are being cancelled or changed because of this weather.

MedallionHuntDoc - 05:29pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22526 of 25017)

"No Time for Cold Feet" -- documentary on the medallion hunt -- www.notanotherhollywoodfilm.com

I'm glad I got to see a lot of the crazier winter events like car racing on ice last year then.

Well I'll see you all later. Maybe next year...

Ever so quickly...he is going to shoot Lady Liberty...A 20 foot tall Statue of Liberty...made of ICE!

Terry Valentine - 05:30pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22528 of 25017)

They just mentioned on the news that they are going to rope off the ice sculpture area so that as the sculptures fall apart folks don't get hurt.

Smart Move...I'll be surprised if there is anything left come parade time tomorrow!

Terry Valentine - 05:32pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22530 of 25017)

That's right! The Grande Parade is tomorrow!

I haven't even thought about attending that in years as hunting has been a first priority.

camo DAN - 05:32pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22532 of 25017)

well if you ask me if you find the medallion you shoud still be entitled to something so my sugestions would be a years supply of WHITE CASTLES & 13 DOLLARS AND 75 CENTS THATHATS THE PERSPPERSOND GET . its ok fo.o.hem to get a little something they should also be given a really nice shirskskirtsays HEY HEHE MIMMY that turnturturnmedallion and all i goI waI a yer of bad gass.......... the writer had no intention of this being a hard hunt how could hid it in a spot like that with the lack of snow and expect it not to be found early unfortunatley i was in the wrong park and my still fits better to the clues we were given..its time to sit out the next couple of hunts.............

Terry Valentine - 05:33pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22533 of 25017)

I've made some commitments for tomorrow being we weren't going to be hunting. Is that parade still televised? Maybe I can catch it on the tube.

Lisa's mommy - 05:35pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22534 of 25017)

Howzabout some chicken wings...or chili...or BBQ... or...

Terry Valentine - 05:38pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22537 of 25017)

Anything you want!

Some folks bring crockpots with stuff....coffee would always be welcomed...Ian will bring sloppy joe medallions - I'm assuming anyways as he always does. I'm bringing a chicken, pasta, salad.

The only thing I would advise against is 24 lbs of potato salad!!!!

Mac-Grove Man - 05:38pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22538 of 25017)

Rehash Bash This Sunday - Jan 27th -- NOON @ Merriam Park. Bring yourself and a dish to share!!!

We should be able to get elec. I'll bring a power strip and extension cord

Terry Valentine - 05:39pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22539 of 25017)

Fruit, veggies, salads, sandwiches, chips, hot chocolate, dessert, whatever!

Terry Valentine - 05:39pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22540 of 25017)

Electricity has been confirmed! It's sooo nice that there will be an open building and tables.

Thanks in advance to the staff at Marry'em Park!

Should I still bring the accessories???

red ram - 05:47pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22542 of 25017)

iam going to bring big bowl of tuna salad.

Terry Valentine - 05:47pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22543 of 25017)

The accessories? You mean the cords and what not? It's better to have them than not.

Like a boy scout...always be prepared!

red ram - 05:48pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22544 of 25017)

and some paper bowls

Lisa's mommy - 05:50pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22545 of 25017)

My Dalliance and Lil Slim we got Jipped!!

hmmmmm maybe I will bring a fruit salad or something like that....

Terry Valentine - 05:51pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22546 of 25017)

If anyone has nametags, that would be cooler too!

Lisa's mommy - 05:52pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22547 of 25017)

My Dalliance and Lil Slim we got Jipped!!

Hey I probably have name tag things here

red ram - 05:53pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22548 of 25017)

how many people come each year?

Violent J - 05:54pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22549 of 25017)

Blackest magic leave my soul, Give my angels all control, Blackest magic let me be, Keep your black tongue off of me, Blackest magic drop your chain, May you never speak my name, Blackest magic watch you cower, Bite your tongue and holy power...

Damn....this sucks, ninjas....i know me and shaggs said the 6th would be the last clue...but thats cause we thought WE were actually gonna get it this year...heh.

Terry Valentine - 05:56pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22550 of 25017)

Last year close to 100 came - this year I suspect there will me many more. Some folks come and go - but most stay for the duration as they are able.

I really think lawn chairs will be appropriate. We can start working on our summer tans! The weather is going to be unseasonably warm!

red ram - 05:57pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22551 of 25017)

ok thanks terry

cold toes - 05:58pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22552 of 25017)

I am seriously really upset about this being found! I have been sitting here for nearly 2 hours reading every post since 11 this morning. Just to read people's reactions when it was found. How depressing!!! I don't want to wait a whole year! And even then I am going to be in Wisconsin for college... aggghhhh!

Terry Valentine - 05:58pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22553 of 25017)

But remember - everyone will bring something to share so don't worry about feeding 100 folks with whatever you bring.

Ask green - 24 lbs of potato salad is overkill!

Sometimes there are grills too if you want to grill something...but I don't know yet if anyone has one to bring with.

red ram - 05:59pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22554 of 25017)

understand.

Terry Valentine - 05:59pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22555 of 25017)

Going to college is a good thing cold toes. You'll earn much more than $10,000 with a degree.

Violent J - 06:01pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22556 of 25017)

Yeah...but its not as fun...and it lasts WAY longer.

cold toes - 06:03pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22557 of 25017)

I know, I am just saying I am going to miss it... this was my last year of being able to get totally into it, and it ended before I got to look! I was going to go to the pp with my mom, her friend and my friend tonight and we were going to scope everything out! I just wish it had been a better hunt. I had all sorts of wild ideas about the clues, which would have been more interesting than what they actually meant. Its just upsetting that everything was but so blatantly and it was just up to which park fit them BEST, not which one it was for sure.

Terry Valentine - 06:03pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22558 of 25017)

They just showed the finders on the news. They were out scoping the park when they happened to kick up the medallion. Unreal. It was reported that this is only the second time it's been found in 6 clues or less.

Terry Valentine - 06:05pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22559 of 25017)

cold toes - when you are done with college, the hunt will still be here. Maybe someday folks will be unhappy with you cuz you got so smart, you outsmarted the clue writer on the 3rd clue!

Terry Valentine - 06:06pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22560 of 25017)

I better get ready to head to McGovern's. BBL

Terry Valentine - 06:08pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22561 of 25017)

Just thought....Eags is going to be sooooo bummed! They are heading here from the UP to hunt...and the hunt is over. At least they'll get to the rehash bash.

cold toes - 06:11pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22562 of 25017)

I am not ready to "look on the bright side" right now. But thanks for trying Terry

Barbara Wake - 06:12pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22563 of 25017)

Is there anything going on tonight?

Violent J - 06:18pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22564 of 25017)

I hope so...this ninja is gonna be bored if not

Barbara Wake - 06:21pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22565 of 25017)

Hey all, Terry, Green, Digger, Alice in Wonderland, ect. Barbara and Terry are going to Gabes for dinner/drinks, if there is nothing going ya'll come on down. Terry will be wearing a shirt that says dads are parents too

Terry Valentine - 06:21pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22566 of 25017)

The crew is meeting up at McGovern's at 7!

Violent J - 06:22pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22567 of 25017)

Gabes? What happened to McGoverns?

Terry Valentine - 06:22pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22568 of 25017)

J - McGovern's - upstairs - I'm looking forward to meeting ya!

Violent J - 06:23pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22569 of 25017)

Damn...i'd like ta be there, but, im 20 years old til March 16th, and my homie Shaggs is workin til 8 somethin...and besides...i seriously doubt their gonna let people with clown makeup in there....

MedallionOnAStik - 06:25pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22570 of 25017)

I have a park!

To the Clue Writer: $10,000 + small park + no snow = Short hunt!!

Terry Valentine - 06:25pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22571 of 25017)

It's a restaurant too. Under agers are welcome too...as long as you don't try to drink something alcoholic.

Barbara Wake - 06:25pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22572 of 25017)

Mcgoverns well be there instead of gabes but where is it?

Terry Valentine - 06:26pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22573 of 25017)

McGoverns is two blocks from the Excel Energy Center on 7th Street. I believe the cross street is Chestnut. It's on the corner across Chestnut(?) from Cossetta's.

I really have nothing else to say that hasn't already been said before. Post #20766 at 3AM summed up the hunt for me this year. One can only hope Joe Cluewriter will not only take the newbie's thoughts but also the seasoned vet's take on the clues next year. There is a way. It's been done in the past. Thanks

kurt cosmo - 08:50pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22622 of 25017)

Oh yeah, I almost forgot - the hunt lasted about as long as the snow did - that's two things that kinda "create a major vacuum" (figure out that clue, if you can)! :) --hint: think "sucks big time".

I dont know really anyone in here at all. Well, i suppose i should get down to what this post is about, right? Im only 21, i have no idea how old you are, but i think your pretty hot. I dont know if your "involved" with someone or not, but, im hoping its "not" so maybe we can hang out and get to know eachother a little bit. Thanks!

I moved here last year from Nebraska, and was at Merriam last night. Hate to tell all you this, but the clues were pretty easily decoded. I'm just kicking myself for leaving at 4am last night and not 5. Congrats to the winner.

This is addicting! See ya all at como next year ;)

Hey, Jesus Christ...what do you have against me?? I dont even know you! No, im not a stalker, stalkers are people that follow other people around and spy on them. what did my last post say? I saw her for the first time last night. Whatever....im still mad right now about the med being found, so im not even going to bother talking to you right now. I know your just being mean because of the same reason, and the fact that im new to posting in here, and you've been around a while...your mean to newcomers, wait, your mean to everyone, it seems. Your probably the same guy as Mr. News. I know you were in here a couple nights ago, yelling at people, and saying that they would die for messing with you.

Wait till next year guy - 10:39pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22627 of 25017)

Hey people, I am disappointed said medallion is found. This weekend would have been great for hunting. They need to get a new clue writer or something. The year it was at Conway was fun cuz everyone was scrating their heads for days. Well 51 more weeks till we hunt again. Isnt it somewhat strange that that woman found it so early with not too many clues, and my last question is what was her 16 year old kid doing out of school, that is pretty week to take your kid out of school to look for a medallion.

couldyourepeatthequestion? - 10:41pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22628 of 25017)

No, actually alot of kids were out of school today for some reason. My cousins all go to highschools in the saint paul area and they were out of school too.

sspclassof69 - 10:42pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22629 of 25017)

Wait--alot of the High schools were out today because of end of term. My kids were out....I personally think the clues were written by Cub Foods this year, and not the PP; Cub foods seems to be heavily involved with this years hunt....

couldyourepeatthequestion? - 10:43pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22630 of 25017)

I guess im kind of glad i didnt find it. I dont shop at Cub Foods anyways, the workers there are kind of snotty.

sspclassof69 - 10:45pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22631 of 25017)

They probably just got that Pringles can from a Cub foods store nearby......I will just pout for awhile. feels good to pout; see everyone back next year.....

couldyourepeatthequestion? - 10:47pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22632 of 25017)

I dont think it was a full can, just the top part that you peel off that says "pringles" and has the mustache guy on it.

sspclassof69 - 10:49pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22633 of 25017)

That was a really weird hiding object; Methinks PP wasn't that involved, but a new clue master.

couldyourepeatthequestion? - 10:50pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22634 of 25017)

You are probably right.

couldyourepeatthequestion? - 10:51pm Jan 25, 2002 CST (#22635 of 25017)

At this rate, we will need about 5 more hunts to get decent enough footage. They followed me and a couple of my friends while we were at merriam digging and talking strategy. Documentation on how close i really was

I'm happy for the kid who found it... And after my poetic ranting last night about the hunt being turned over to sponsorship, and the planned weekend dog and pony show at the PP, I think it's poetic justice that no one will be there to take part in the commercialism!!!!! too bad, so sad for the revenue lost......
