purplegrape Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) So we all know theres a something happening in L.A. and we're apparently gonna start getting clues so I figured it'd be good to organize all of our thoughts and discussions in one place made just for these clues. Teamwork might help us crack them. This isn't just for people going to L.A., cause I'm not, but I think it might be fun playing along with Mika's little game. We got this last night (by my time anyway) http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18185 then Mika left us out first clue on twitter: ' ICE CREAM, the first clue' *note: really Perez left the first clue by saying 'Fabulous! @mikasounds it will be A LOT of fun. I love surprises - and ice cream! (Shout out to the MFC.)' for anyone who was confused, I believe the 'shout out to the MFC' was just meant to tell us that he had given us a clue. Mika then confirmed it. And this is on Mikasounds: Here’s the first clue for early next week! mxx! So, where is everyone gonna start? Looking up ice cream shops in L.A.?

purplegrape Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 So, I found this, if it means anything: http://pzacad.pitzer.edu/~lyamane/icecream.htm and this part is whats important: Here in Los Angeles it is difficult to find good ice cream. Californians seem to prefer frozen yogurt over ice cream. But there are a few places worth an hour drive or less. Bert & Rocky's Cream Company The best ice cream in the Southland. Try their almost paradise. Tell Brent that Linus sent you. 1041 West Foothill Blvd, Upland, (909) 946-6805 and 242 Yale Avenue, Claremont, (909) 625-1852. Eiger's The family owned and eternally busy Eiger's (names for the mountain in Switzerland) has been making its intoxicatingly delicious ice cream on the premises for 18 years. Popular flavors include mocha almond fudge, chocolate raspberry and vanilla brownie fudge. Barrington Place, Brentwood, (310) 471-6955. McConnell's 100 Fishermans Wharf # B, Redondo Beach, (310) 376-2544 835 E Canon Perdido St, Santa Barbara, CA, (805) 968-8813 Al Gelato Robertson Boulevard has been a slow drive lately, so if you must drive it at all, why not stop and console yourself with a creamy, homemade gelato from this friendly Italian takeout café? Try the crème brulee gelato with its intense caramel flavor. Also good are cappuccino with toffee chips, coffee crunch, the delicate vanilla creme and the fruit ices. Open until midnight seven days a week. 806 S. Robertson Blvd, Los Angeles, (310) 659-8069. Fosselman's Ice Cream Company This family owned Alhambra ice cream company was started more than 70 years ago and still makes the best ice cream around - it wins a Gold Medal at the L.A. County Fair every year. Don't miss the peach, the French vanilla or the toasted almond. New and popular are fat-free sorbets. 1824 W. Main Street, Alhambra, (818) 283-6533. Gill's Old Fashioned Ice Cream Homemade ice cream, homemade sorbets, sugar-free/fat-free yogurt. Ice cream cakes and special ice cream molds for all occasions. Family owned since 1963. 3rd Street and Fairfax Avenue, Los Angeles, (213) 936-6786 Bennett's Ice Cream Premium ice cream, frozen yogurt, ices, ice cream cakes, molds. Full fountain service. Also at the Farmer's Market. 3rd Street and Fairfax Avenue, Los Angeles, (323) 936-7986 Emack & Bolio's 2049 Century Park East #14, Los Angeles, (310) 556-1895 Soda Jerks This terrific old-fashioned soda fountain, located just south of Old Town in Pasadena, features Fosselman's ice cream and some of the best-natured "soda jerks" around. There's everything from 2 cents plain and lime rickeys to mind-boggling sundaes and wonderful coffee. 219 S. Fair Oaks Avenue, Pasadena, (818) 583-8031. Double Rainbow Among top-notch rich ice creams, Double Rainbow distinguishes itself for having the biggest chips and chunks. For example, the cappuccino chocolate crunch has huge chunks of chocolate-covered toffee. The French vanilla and the dark, profound ultra chocolate are also very popular. 1898 Westwood Blvd, Westwood, (310) 470-6232 and 7376 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, (213) 655-1986. Titus Levi also recommend the following place in Los Angeles: Hans' Homemade Ice Cream 3640 S Bristol St, Santa Ana (714) 979-8815 Robin Rose Ice Cream 215 Rose Ave, Venice (310) 399-1774 Lappert's Ice Cream 29 Pier Avenue, Hermosa Beach (310) 318-3953 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sariflor Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 "puts on her Detective hat" ..elementary dear watson... This reminds me of a joke that I always liked: Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend. 'Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.' Watson replies, 'I see millions of stars.' 'What does that tell you?' Watson ponders for a minute. 'Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Timewise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?' Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. 'Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent.'

sariflor Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Hehe I love that joke. Here's another one (and before I get accused of anything, let me clarify that Irish people are my favourite people in this world!! This is not an offensive joke IMO, just plain funny): Ryanair pilot, Paddy... Is flying into Manchester. The plane is in trouble, so he calls the tower and says 'help, help! Easter Monday. Pancake Tuesday. New years eve. Halloween. Bonfire night! Voice comes back and says, ' for foock sake Paddy, it's Mayday!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sariflor Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Ok, I'm on a roll. Here another funny one: A man is sitting on a plane waiting to get served for drinks but he notices that the refreshments cart seems to have stopped well in front of him. He looks to the front of the plane where all of the air hostesses seem to be running around after one of the passengers who is bossing them around. When he looks closer, he notices that the passenger is a very rude parrot. "Get me a whiskey now bitch!" screamed the parrot, and she hurried off rather nervously to get it. "Get me some peanuts you whore!" he screamed to another girl, and again in fear of the horrible parrot she rushed off to get some. The man thought to himself that if he tried the same approach as the parrot then he might get served. The next time an air hostess walked past the man shouted, "Hey slag! Get me a beer!" The air hostess instantly burst into tears and ran to the front of the plane and into the cockpit. A few minutes later the co-pilot and several air hostesses walked back out of the cockpit, grabbed the man and the parrot and threw them out of the plane. As they began falling towards earth the parrot turned to the nervous looking man and said, "well, you're a cheeky foocker for someone who can't fly!"

I don't really know, it's a famous boulevard in LA and it popped into my head when I read sunset. I'm pretty sure it's near venice beach, a little bit to the north if I remember well.

Soaring Simpson Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Yep, new clue!! twitter: New clue; Wednesday Sunset My dad says check ice cream shops on sunset blvd and I guess it's gonna happen wednesday. I think Perez twittered "On the Roxy" which is the name of a club on sunset. Smarter people than me are speculating that the ice cream clue is about how to get tickets Guess we need a time clue too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
