Moose may have made it too easy. If you hold the mouse over the pics you get the file name of the photo. Then if you put all the file names into Google and do a search then you will find all pages with those pics in it...

From there it is rather easy to pare down the choices with the rest of the clues in the picture post...

Ah, technology...



Perhaps you have some super duper spy computer, Simon, as the only thing I get when I put my mouse over the picture, is an SD/surface itnerval photo number....

Whatever...

Yeah me too.

Today's clue (and the final one) is that this girl actually got me to cook. I'm not talking about micowaving or anything. (Which is the only real cooking I normally did.)

I actually cooked a complete, 3 course meal, COMPLETE from scratch! Here is the menu...
Appetizer
Buttery Brie and Pear Bites
Main
Chicken Saltimbocca with Roasted Asparagus
Dessert
Chocolate and Raspberry Petits Fours
(Note, I didn't bake the bread. That was the only thing I didn't make myself.)

Here are a few pics of the dinner...

And yes, I'm damn proud of the way it came out. Until I cooked this meal, the only thing I could make was reservations! :lmao:
Oh, the last pic is a wine and cheese platter we had the next day.


Good Job Moose!! :) I am very happy for you. This is very exciting, can't wait to find out who it is.

And do tell how you know this fact Simon...

What the...? How did you get in my living room...? I told you I have NO comment... Get those cameras out of my face you vultures...! Huh...? What? Who said that? Britney and I are just friends and... I said get out of here...! SLAM...

Yes, the dive and happy hour took place. The only thing, no Tolly! (good ridens!) :cool2:

Poki showed up late, so most of us didn't see her either.


As for the answer to the contest, here is her post on the matter....

Congratulations! That is truly wonderful. She was a sweetheart. You have the Punk's seal of approval. :2cool: Yeah, I know, as if it would matter. :lmao:

I see that was her SECOND post ever on singledivers.com. So during the 'contest' she had only ever made ONE post. Saying the lady is a 'member of singledivers' surely we would never guess someone with only one post. Her profile does not list a region, a state, or even a country so those clues about where she lives were just mean to waste our time.

In the future we can all be sure that mooseclues are not clues at all.

At least it wasn't too easy.

In Moose's defense (and it isn't b/c I'm a Moosette who has to stand by her man!), the title of my first post announced I'm from New York City, my profile shows I'm from the state of NY, and the body of the post stated that I met the singledivers.com group in Grenada. Moose also responded to that post with a reference that he would be seeing me soon thereafter, so the assumption was that if anyone had looked up *all* of his recent posts, one might have been able to piece 1 + 1 together. And technically, I am a singledivers.com member, albeit an incredibly quiet one. :2cool: However, as for the dinner photos that were posted later, I agree it was far too difficult to get much out of them, unless you were a computer genius who could both see through the clue right away, and knew how to get past the restricted access (which Moose didn't know about when he came up with the clue) that I had placed on the online photo album! :welcome:

Hopefully he won't have any reason to post any more mind-bending mooseclues, though! :excl:

Post number 3 and counting!

:welcome: Who has that kind of time? I think I looked back a couple of weeks and gave up because Moose is pretty prolific. So now, I looked up your posts (a lot easier to sift through) and Moose said "See you soon" which is kind of a generic thing to say, IMHO. Even if I had found it, I doubt I would have put 2 and 2 together. But then again, I'm not that great at solving mysteries.

I would have thought that the people on the Grenada trip would have had a better chance of guessing that the east coasters. In any case, it was a pleasure meeting you. You are a very sweet and charming person and you and Moose make a very nice couple (you balance him out) :2cool: :excl: JK Moose. We all know you have a really soft side to you. Hope to see you both again soon. See? there's that generic see you soon. :excl:

Didn't mean to complain. The point I was trying to make was that it was not easy and that the contest would not be interesting if it was easy. I tried to research a little. I got thrown off course by the references to "no Canadians" so I thought that was to disqualify those 'surely in the know'. Good contest has to have some useless clues in along with the 'good ones'.

Congratulations Mokie & Moose
