Pretty sure that broken plate that they found on this week's episode was similar to one I saw at Walmart last week.

That's going to be a big royalty for N.S.

Oak Island 7 seasons Readers Digest version . It's rumored that there is treasure on Oak Island. It's in the Monet Pit. Could it be that
( insert any pirates explorer, or group) buried treasure here. This rock has a mark on it, could it be ( , Templar Knights, Sir Francis Bacon, Etc...)

left a marker , so they could find the treasure later. Hey Rick why don't we ( dig a hole, drill a caisson,metal detector this). Ok Marty.

Hey we found some(wood, parchment, bone.etc.) We need more data Craig. Ok let's ( ground penetrating radar, seismic, carbon data this, etc..) Hey what's that Gary? Ooohweeeee, Holy Sheeemoly that's a Top Pocket find for sure. Hey Rick and Marty look what we found( spike , coin,leather, bone )

What do you think Rick , should we send this for further testing? Typical Oak Island Marty , there are always more questions than answers. We need

more data, so send everything to get tested, and find some world renowned expert. to render an opinion on what we found. We need to have a meeting in

the War Room . What's this costing Rick? About 15 million Canadian, so when we factor in the exchange, it's about $500 US Marty Not bad big brother, I've got millions to spend, I think I'll buy the Island. Thanks Marty, your the best little brother. Hey where else can you

spend millions, looking for treasure. Besides if we do find any treasure we get to pay the Government of Nova Scotia a royalty so we can keep it.

Seasons 8,9.10 spoiler. Reread above paragraph, repeat for each season.

Are you sure you're doing it right?

Nope.
They actually asked me to come in and work 16 hours tomorrow too (8 hours before my 8 hour shift.
I said "No".

Enough.

Distinctly less as I am sat on my arris all morning on conference calls.

So it's a safety issue. Of course.

I would say that's 2 of Colombia's finest there mate

could it be... that the real curse of oak island is getting hooked watching this show expecting them to actually find treasure?

One more must die...


… of boredom from watching the same hole in the ground.

I haven't seen her at all but I'm always on the lookout for her Bush....I mean Brush...stupid typos....

I definitely have to visit y'all in Canada during the summer!!! Spring simply will not do!

No. Not Spring. Spring is that day between winter and the winter that comes before summer.

I don't know,it's like a really bad movie in the theater.You keep watching it hoping it gets better instead of walking out.

Hope you made it in time to partake of your reservation - have a blast!

Caught a Lyft in from MCO, dropped off our stuff at the room, and made it to the reservation with 3 minutes to spare. Younger son (the food-motivated teenage boy who really really likes ice cream) had never been there. I don't think I can get away with not making a reservation there again.

They seem to find juuuuuust enough, to keep me interested. Will they find a box drain under the crane pad? Will they find the money pit and...

That reminds me. This whole "debris field"... It's bad enough that there's all this conjecture that there is (or worse, was) something buried... but it seems like a reach to assume it's now spread over a wide, fairly easily found, area.

As Statler & Waldorf from the muppets would say. We entered a drawing, yeah and we lost

Things about Oak Island that I totally don't understand - They find all these small pieces of pottery or dishes, but never find a big chunk or multiple pieces that fit together ( when they hid this stuff did they break into a million pieces and scatter it all over. Matter of fact nothing they find is ever complete (except for the lead cross and a few coins), think about it when Dino bones from millions of years are found most of the bones are in the immediate area. Maybe the island use to host Greek Weddings and there was a bunch of plate breaking.

My favorite guest on the show is the German researcher, he kind of reminds me of a young Dr Doofenshmirtz

same here,I have watched all 6 seasons and cant quit now.
My thinking is that a lot of these objects and structures were laid in while building up a smaller island. then again it could all be from searchers too...

almost like they are digging in an old dump site?

a good drinking game to play would be to do a shot every time the narrator says "could it be..."

Don't think I've shared but DS and I will be heading to Chicago a week from today for 4 days of Star Wars fandom as we are attending the Star Wars Celebration.

Nice! You'll have to give us a few insider tidbits. I suspect they will at least announce a name for Episode 9, and maybe a teaser trailer.

Pretty sure that broken plate that they found on this week's episode was similar to one I saw at Walmart last week.

Yes but that plate was clearly broken by a Templar Knight while he took his lunch break from digging an underground vault to house the Ark of the Covenant containing Shakespeare's manuscripts.

Maybe that's the one more who must die..

They actually asked me to come in and work 16 hours tomorrow too (8 hours before my 8 hour shift.
I said "No".

Ouch. Yeah that's not cool.

Some of us (okay maybe just me) don't.
Never seen it and based on y'all's conversations, don't think I see it in my future either. I don't watch a lot of TV anyway, but I can think of much better things to do with my time.

Morning All,

we have survived yesterday freak storm. Dumped about 15 to 20 centimeters here in about 5 hours. Lots of trouble getting up the hills in town and even pulled the buses for a bit because they were sliding all over the road. By 5:30 the sun was out and the roads were clear. Crazy weather! Today it is sunny and around the freezing mark.

Get the spend a couple of hours this afternoon answering questions for sport and recreation students at the local university. They are always amazed when we fill them in on how much money they will make working in the amateur sport system. For some you can almost see the hope just run out of their bodies.

Pretty sure he just repeats the same 4 or 5 lines.

Some of us (okay maybe just me) don't.

I only watch when I am forced to because DW watches every week.

Had to google Sheila's Brush after all the discussion which in typical procrastination fashion led to more searching which lead to Sheela na gig carvings. Don't go there.
