Droid X Scavenger Hunt Thread

[willisbb]

im about to give up on finding one and just call verizon and try to get one early, my storm is now needing a battery pull every time anything happens,
(receive a phone call, pull batter and call back, receive text, pull battery and read, want to send a text or picture message, pull battery and try again, don't do anything for 30 minutes or more, pull battery so the screen comes on)

If I was up for an upgrade I would buy one, but I can't afford it out right and since I got the ERIS it will be late next year before I can upgrade. Course who know what will be out than lol.

Droid X designate #19 is near the man who wrote "a stitch in time saves nine". Try to find this phone in time.

It is either Thomas Fuller or Francis Baily. Can't find a particular location though.

Same...i think its Fuller...but I think he's from England...

 

[xstrider]

Me to but I can't associate him to Philadelphia, PA yet. Or at least the one with the quote. I found another Thomas Fuller in Phili, but he was a slave and a different person. I wonder if they accidently mixed them up.

My Best Guess

My guess for Droid X designate #19 is Pennsylvania Prison Society
245 North Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107-1505

 

[xstrider]

Hmm, I can associate Thomas Fullers "A Collection of Englsh Proverbs" where I think the proverb came from to Ben Franklins "Poor Richard", but I can't interpert the exact connection. I am at work and some of the web sites are blocked that I tried to go to.

Almost sure

I'm almost positive it's next to the statue of Benjamin Franklin.

[quiverskeep]

Well the tweet says it's near him (statue I assume).

 

[xstrider]

I have a feeling I will not be able to get #15 if it comes to the Denver Area. I am at least an hour out.
