This is pretty funny that with all of us asking, no one has been able to translate due to missing piece. I have the box, but no ad...

A great excuse to buy the next issue of Maxim though

 

I now have the ad in Blender, and the box - but they're not (yet) in the same building

 

And the RACE is on! Who can decode the mystery first? Who will pull through... details at 11... or whenever they show up... or something...

 

I decided awhile back to not touch on any of this on MotoringFile because I think it'll be more interesting if it's a personal quest. Finding out through someone else on a web forum somewhere is like reading the last page of the book

 

I just got my black box yesterday, but I haven't gone to get the magazine. I guess I'll have to get one on my way home from work today.

However, that didn't stop me from having fun with the decoder tools. (Some things in life, just look cooler when they're red) (Disclaimer: Don't use while driving...red lights, well, are red already! )

Still trying to find a use for the rear window decoder. Wonder if it will stick to the dash so as to create a sticky surface to keep my phone on.


I still would like to know what it says!

-Thad

 

I know what it says but I like to see everyone else find out
All I have to say is I like my bumper sticker , thats a clue!
Now you will be fighting to get that blender mag

 

Okay, look jerkies, some of us can't get to our mailboxes or a newstands(due to an ACL surgery a couple days ago) so enough suspense, TELL ME WHAT THE DAMM AD SAYS, NOW!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ur

 

Ur Killing Me Here!!!!! Don't Make Me Come Over There With My Crutches

 

Deplomacy...... I'll trade ya some of my Percocet?????

 

It says "patience grasshopper" (with a nod to Stracco!)


Gabe - I agree with you; you'll notice the weblog entry I made revealed "less than nothing"

 

You don't have a bumper sticker!

 

You guys are seriously not going to tell me? Fine, be that way. Gimpy over here, all drugged up, is going to get behind the wheel of his manual MINI, with his crutches, and try not to wipe out a family of four waiting at a bus stop, while I try to make it to a newstand to find this ad. If I do, I'm blaming it on YOU.

 

what bumper sticker, I don't see no stinkin bumper sticker on your MINI.

Why are you guys doing this to me. I'm wounded, have mercy on me!!!

 

Crap, this is worst than I thought. I just tried to get my son to go get the mail. He's not here. I forgot before I passed out on the Percocet, that I let him go swimming. I can't go down two flights of steps to get the mail, how would I carry it back? All this thinking is making me tired. Need sleep.............zz...zz.z.zzzzzz.zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzz

 

I don't have the sticker Yet, but i can make it when i want! Thats the clue!
Nothing on my pic
It worth more to find it on your own like i did, believe me it is the coolest thing you will fit and only for MINI owners
I know some of you will go and buy all the copies of blender and then no one will get it
This is a journey of a lifetime!
You will have to find the holy grail
Expect many more journeys to your local Barnes and Noble.
I brought you the news- now its your quest

 

I understand where you're coming from, and I too want to seek out the materials myself... but at the same time, I think that info on WHERE to find the ads is very useful info that SHOULD be posted...

And many kudos to snooter for doing just that, back in post #99.

 

Hah!!!! I knew if I pretended to be asleep, you guys would start chiming in. Caught you, now tell me what the message say or else the piggy gets it. Okay, there is no piggy but ... something will get it, just not sure what that something is right now.

 

 

Edge, go away. Don't encorage him to keep it a secret. If you don't want to know, just don't look at this thread anymore. :P

NOW TELL ME WHAT IT SAYS

 

LOL... considering your medical circumstances, I'm sure that someone will be happy to PM you the information instead...

And no, I don't know yet... but I'm seriously considering stopping off to buy Blender on the way home!

 

It said it would self distruct

 

Just motored over to Wal-Mart and they don't have any of these magazines I might have to motor to a bigger city tomorrow, I can't wait to see it!

 

Well in that case, sense you're up and about, can you stop by here after getting the magazine, and get the remote from off of the tv set and handing it to me please? My son has a sick sense of humor and left it on the TV Guide channel.

 

Tell you what, if it does self distruct, I'll give you mine, but you have to come get it out of my mailbox. Deal?????
