Is anyone going to be in the Village on Tuesday, October 17th?  If so, you could have a chance to win $1 million.  I have no idea how it happened, but I somehow got on an email list to recieve regular clues as to where in the country the Ricola Mystery Cougher will be showing up.  He/She will be in the Village on the 17th.  Since I won't be anywhere near there, I thought I'd pass the info. along to anyone on the board who might be, or work, in that area.As per their <a href="http://www.ricolausa.com/home/" target="_self">website</a>, the way it works is: you see someone coughing in public and offer them a Ricola.  If it happens to be the Mystery Cougher he/she whips out 50 prize envelopes for you to choose from.  One of them contains the $1 million prize.Here's the email I got:"These little town blues, are melting away. I want to be a part of it. New York, Neeeewwww Yooooork...." Greetings Ricola fans. This is the Mystery Cougher. Sorry to be singing in my email. But I'm so excited to be heading for the city so nice they named it twice. That's right. I'll be in The Big Apple next week on Tuesday October 17th. The weather should be nice and crisp. Halloween weather in fact, which reminds me of your first clue. Read on. I'll be situated in the NYC neighborhood world famous for it's Halloween Parade. This is no trick. Have your Ricola Cough drops ready. Your treat could be one million dollars. Good luck.  Good luck buddays."When you're rich and famous, you'll send me a postcard."<img src="http://www.coasttocoasttickets.com/images/theater_jackiemason.jpg" border="0" />

What if you offer a Ricola to an AIDS-ridden tranny?

Bumpity bump bump.Not sure if anyone cares but tomorrow's the day and I got another email:Hello Ricola fans. Well, the big day is here. I'll be in NYC on Tuesday October 17th around lunchtime. But finding me is your assignment. Your final clue is a rhyme. Search high and low, if you dare. The Cougher will next appear in a Presidential Square. In a part of NYC known for its Halloween march, The Cougher will lurk near a very big _ _ _ _* *(four letters) Good luck!

Wouldn't it be more fun to go there, cough, and when someone gives you a Ricola say thank you and walk away?
