Ya know he kind of looks like the Riddler too!

I think he has to much time on his hands to think of all these rhymes.

Just my two centsless worthless .I'm close to the edge, down by the river, Yes

−∞ exp(−x2) dx = √π

{ integral from -infinity to +infinity } exp(-x^2) dx = square root of pi=or < bootails

OK, Riddler. woke up and think I figured out clue 1. Today, the more there are, the less there are... Answer? Hours! Right?

ok i have no idea what Steve is talking about here but here are some of my 3:00 am thoughts..they may be stupid but its just logic...
there was a ambassador reel given away for the milwaukee musky expo...the clue about bunched in 2, 1 is not 3 and the wood is not holding the answer to me...musky baits are wood correct? a treble hook has 3 points but is still one hook and usually has 2 trebles on a bait. this is coming from a bluegill fisherman so hang tight and leave me alone...

The hours thing where the plack was given away is listed under the New years eve.
The FIRST post as measured by the time log for 2003 (CENTRAL TIME!!!) will win a Muskie Plaque by worrallswoodworking.com.

This is a really cool piece, suitable for any muskie angler's collection. You might even be allowed to hang it in the living room![:bigsmile:]

What are YOU doing at midnight?? Watch the time on THIS board, that is what counts.

Go Cat Go!!! Appears 'Gill is gut hooked on this one...;) Labor hard dudes, Worrall can giggle under the sheets for now, but soon he will awake in a cold sweat in a howling wind w/ the cry of the hoot owl in the background, and realize it's time to pay the piper; there are only 324 pages of posts!

Down by the edge, close to the water...SEASONS will pass you by..

The next two lines from the Yes song that Raze quoted.

The more I ponder this, the less I feel like I'm getting anywhere with it. If someone doesn't solve this thing quick I'm giving up and going back to life as I used to know it.

Sponger,

Throw logic and common sense out the door. My Bootail guess was based on three factors. 1 Dave Darazio started guiding in the mid 60's 2. His Bootails are made with Bird feathers. 3. the spinner turns.

This "Hunt" assures me that I'm not on the same Planet, let alone the same page.

esoxjunkie is warm in his first post today. To everything, turn turn turn... Take all the clues, line them up in order. See how Shep found the one of the three which did not win the day. Shep found the one of the three. Shep found the one of the three. Shep found the one of the three. What you search for is in a post. Krappie was warm. Clue number 10)The items you need to catch a big ski DO include what you say and also include me. Find where I am and you find the hidden two, this is the clue I am giving to you. 25 in the clue was asleep, add the real end, and the symbol you see. 11 is the number that 26 makes free.

Theres a post "How do muskies spend there winters?" posted on 11-26-02

I thought, he keeps hinting on something turning 3 times, 3 turns of the seasons gives you winter (assuming you start in spring), the date takes care of the 11 and 26 reference, but I dont see anything in it that makes it a winner.

Am I at all close?

Ok, I think I'm trying to hard. Here's some info that might help, but most likely not.

On page 26 of the general discussion board, 11 topics down is a thread that Joel Tinker started. The topic says it has 26 replies, but only 21 show up when you go to read them. Where did the other 5 go?

I'm just a clue away from reaching the reasoning capacities of my grey matter.

11 of 26. You have the right idea, now that you figured out that is important. It was 25, but the last 'number' was 'sleeping'.

 

Sponger, a crumb. What did the simple kids encoders that were in Cracker Jack boxes use for a base code?

boats coming on the market about now and prices will be better now than in the spring. I think you might be able to find a better deal than those two.

I agree with this post.[:bigsmile:]

"I quit when I was about 26 or so. It wasn't easy, but was welll worth the effort. I will personally guarantee you a free weekend for you and a guest at Worrall's Hideout any time in the future you want to choose if you officially quit. I will show you Pelican, Boom, and Crescent during that time. There is also a new 7'6" Fig Rig Rod in the deal if you quit and stay off the killer weed for the summer."

Am I just grabbing at straws here?

Cracker Jack decoders used numbers associated with the letters of the alphabet. There are 26 letters in the alphabet, the 11th of which is K? Y, the 25th letter is "sometimes silent" according to the elementary school rules.

Anyone see how this ties into the song references, or what is has to do with the items needed to catch a 'ski?

Lol Stever! I dumped the CJs and kept only the little rubber beavers or squirrels...maybe a post containing the term TURNover will contain something...who can know these things...I'm still working on the true meaning of the "Little Red Hen"....

I tried to find something with turn, and turnover. And post turnover. And spring, summer, fall, winter.

With the k, and possibility of knot, there would also be turns involved in tying the knot, but none of the knot threads produced any good leads for me either.

Oh, gee...the letter K. Well, that sure makes things a whole lot easier.

I've gotta go set up a show, and work it all weekend. Hopefully someone will get to the bottom of this by the time I get to check the board again on Sunday evening.

I could really use a new net.

OK Stever I have been quiet on the board so far regarding this. I however have been driving my wife, family and coworkers nuts with this. It's the last thing I think about when I go to bed and the first thing I think of in the morning. Here goes.

Random thoughts or things I have noted.

"the more there are the less there are"...Birthdays?

"I am bunched up in 2. 1 is not 3."... Worralls Woodworking Plaque
rr's ll's and oo's are bunched up in twos
rr's and ll's are separated by one letter ll's and oo's are separated by 2 letters and there aren't any double letters are separated by 3.
2 w's in woodworking are however separated by 3 letters (one is not 3)

"11 of 25 is the beginning of the end"
last syllable of Woodworking "king" starts with K the 11th letter

"Wood is not holding the clue to find me"
Worrall's Woodworking Plaque contains 25 letters if you remove "wood" from it you get Worrall's Working Plaque. Is Brian Working on a Plaque???

More Random thoughts:

"11 of 25 is the beginning of the end"
Mike Koepp - K is the beginning of his last name

"the prize will be found by anyone with the sense of a hound"
sense of a hound?? How about scents of a hound? A hound smells his prey.

Even more Random thoughts:

Is there a post about Mike Koepps birthday?
Is there a post about Worralls birthday?
Is there a post about Worrall working? (Worrall's Woodoworking - Wood = Worralls Working)
Does it have something to do with a hunting location. I noted there were some words capitalized in several posts by Worrall. "HUNT" and "LOCATION".
Is there something relating to Donnie Hunt and/or his location. There was also a play on the word "shot". "Go ahead and give it a shot."

Son of a Bitch Worrall, now you really got me going. I gotta give it a rest before I start to confuse myself.
