Carnival of the Badger X
Arrr! It be Carnival of the Badger number ten, and "X" marks the spot. Pay careful attention to these clues, Mateys. If ye uncovers me secret ye'll get me treasure! The first blogger... er Grogger... to mail me the message (in a bottle) gets prominent linkage on me side barrr! Visit these blogs grogs and use the clues to get me hidden message.
I'll start ye off with a sample, last week's post from me own grog. It never posted to Badger IX, Arrr! I'll cut the liver out of that yellowbelly at Badger Blues. To find me first secret treasure, travel to the last island, and take four paces south. From there, travel to the third cross and count three paces east. Ye'll be standing on the first treasure chest. To find the second chest, see Blackbeard's laundry list two islands back from where ye stand. Ye'll be needing the latter part of the first item in his list. The secret message is "drink alcohol." I hope ye gets it, because the rest of me clues are more dastardly. It's all about imagery, ye see? And, pay attention to relative scale, Arrr!
The first grog this week is about an island, Summerfest Island. The captain of Wigderson Library & Pub is a pirate after me own black heart. Take no prisoners, says he! And make the sissies walk the plank to Davey Jones' Island. Ye'll find me treasure here, buried in a TLA. Ye'll be wanting the highest and lowest valued coins only.
Blogger Beer covers the hunt for rouge pirate Tom Delay. Arrr! Ye'll never take him alive, says me! Seek out the civilians in the closing arguement of this grog. Ye'll be needing the two pearls buried in the center of the word that describes them.
Arrr! Democrats! Take on the most famous pirates on the high seas at RealDebateWisconsin. The ninth island in this chain is named after after the man who landed there first. Ye'll see his name as soon as ye arrive. Only the fourth letter of his last name matters. A second submission from this grog ponders the true purpose of government.
If ye've been clever, now ye've got the first word of me secret message.
Homicide be nothing to a pirate, nor to the local rag, says Steve Egg. The second word of me hidden message is three ships deep into Steve's final fleet.
The American Mind chronicles the adventures of the pirate king James Doyle, as he fights the mighty beast of TABOR. Ye'll be wanting to tear out the heart of the TLA used in reference to some of the political types in this grog.
At last, a friendly port. Patrick has assembled a kit for ye groggers. The booty ye seek, can be found by threes: island number three, three paces south, three paces east.
That scurrvy dog at Badger Blues wants to talk about Harriet Miers' position on the right to piracy! Find the lonely palm tree in his quote.
Random10 finds the UN's been reading with their eyepatches on. Stop for a drink first, and you'll be seeing quadruples all over this grog! Find the parrots that make a pair twice on the seventh island. Keep one for yerself.
Arrr! Grog and pornography! Ye'll get both at Folkbum's Rambles and Rants this week. The first letter of Jay's profession is the next key to me treasure.
It's a yellow grog! On The Borderline is a two part (Part 1, Part 2) read this week. This grog urges ye to see through the voodoo that public schools do, and vote "No" on referendums. Arrr! Pirates have no use for public skools! Ye'll be wanting the figurehead on the bow of three ships in one part and two in the other.
One grogger is fed up with cuthroat politics. The Brewtown Politico says we ought to get it right the first time. Polly says you want the last letter of the capital city mentioned in this grog.
Boots and Sabers, a pirate's delight. Now, if only gunplay were involved somehow, then we'd have a grand time on the high seas! Find the seventh treasure chest in Owen's first riddle. The most common gem is the one ye seek.
This completes me message. But, we have more submissions from the rest of the grogosphere.
Letters in Bottles studies the decline in our state's electoral power. Arrr! We need to be counting all the wandering scallywags from Illinois in the next census!
Pirates off the port bow! The Xoff Files is weighing in about some republican radio hosts. It seems these hooligans need a lesson in who's who on the high seas!
If I've forgotten yer grog this week, address all your complaints to "Pegleg the Cannibal." He's the head of our complaint department.
