Uberquandary

Small? At 1,256,951 people, San Diego has one-fourth the population of Colorado...

I still like finding my bellybutton! 112707- about at ten percent, but I took a two or three year hiatus in there before catching the bug again. I'm also personally responsible for a dozen or so accounts being created.

Our 99 Outback gets 28-32 mpg, can go most places an SUV can, and kicks hard in the snow. It's no Jeep when it comes to offroading but it can get us about as far as we want to go, most of the time. Last summer we sacrificed a fog light and a sway rod taking it up roads we shouldn't have, but the cost of replacing those was less than the cost of gas would have been for driving a Jeep all summer.

What's the right sport? What's the right sport! Why, there's only one sport whose energy, skill, capacity to injure the player, and yes, sheer aggression complement Geocaching perfectly. What sport, indeed! Besides, we got a wicked good team here. Whose players could beat the Chargers any day of the week. Like Batman!

Everybody beat Denver. So what? Y'all are paying attention to the wrong sport.

I could see a five star terrain event...if it were at the top of a cliff that required climbing equipment, or on an island where you'd need a boat, or on a roof where you'd need a ladder...but five star difficulty? That's annoying as much as anything.

The best way to greet geocachers is to run out waving a shotgun in the air hollering, "Git off my land!"

But...my new year's resolution was to not break any (more) sway rods or foglights taking my poor little roo up roads it can, but shouldn't, go on in search of some dumb cache... Oy ve...

A screwdriver? Or, you can pop the clutch... Is a keyword cypher like a Vigenere cypher?

I can relate to that... But it's not as impressive in a Subaru!

In my opinion, you should keep a cache going until you can't anymore. People not finding it doesn't mean it should go away. Lots of great caches only get one or two finds a year because they're tough-that makes 'em funner.

Reminds me of the Basic Boulder Marathon... I think I've hashed before, although it's normally on hikes. Altitude + Alcohol + Long hike back to the car with similarly disposed friends makes for a good time. I've found caches in that state, too...

I'm from the 'finding the right trail is half the challenge' group. I get around it by stating in the description that I'll tell the easiest way up if somebody asks.

If anything, I'd expect a GPS-reliant outdoorsman to be more likely to get lost than one who relies solely on a map and compass. Using a GPS it's easy to just follow the silly arrow to your DOOM!

I like it!! I'm going to start using my caching age instead of the old worn out age I've been using. Just show them your old worn out ID when they pull you over for underage driving!

One Degree of Separation. I think.

Wait.They're still not paid for caches listed on 'new media', such as the internet. Oh, good. I was fearing some corruption in the system.

Wait.

By golly, you got it right. The spelling, I mean.

I actually like the 'needs archived' thing. I talk like that regularly and I've never been to W VA, ever. But I suggest that the sentence be refined.

Every time I go outside I get cold. or wet. or both.

Has it been? I tried a search. Edit: No, that's a different issue. I saw that one when I was searching.

Blast, this isn't the forum I wanted to put it in. Could somebody move it to the Web Site room?

It's really not that important. Most people probably don't notice. But it would make me happy if the wording for the 'Should be Archived' notification were just a teensy bit different. Now, they read like this: BillyJoeBob requested Some Cache or Another (Multi-cache) to be archived. But ideally, it would say: BillyJoeBob requested that Some Cache or Another (Multi-cache) be archived. It's the subjunctive. Everybody says it doesn't exist in English; they're wrong. By some weird luck, this sentence is a perfect example of it. That's all.

Do you mean that somebody stole my film canister idea??!!! (and I'm guessing you meant to say "archived"?) No, no. What he means to say is that the cache has transcended this material world and 'achieved' a higher state of being. It has not been archived; it just takes searching of the soulish sort.
