    Luckily, being retired Army, I can just head to my nearest base and hit Clothing Sales for the real deal, at about the same price as what is quoted at that site you put up. If I don't want to drive to Fort Hood or Fort Polk, I can order through the PX catalog and get them shipped to me. It's a great system...LOL. I've worn just about all of the different types and colors of BDU pants and I've found the best for hot weather is the three color desert. I use the others for colder weather (woodland, black, grey, etc.).


     

    The black 100% cotton "pill" like cheap Polar Fleece in the laundry, I've found. Or maybe my ex was just lousy at following the laundering directions?

    What? It's non-offensive, family-oriented and involves geocaching.

     

    You'd have to stick with pants, as they would hide the peg-leg.

    Are you referring to Sun Dogs?

  4. So if you're out in the woods and somebody you don't know offers you something, would you take it? Or would you follow Mom's advice "Never accept candy from strangers"???

Sadly, some people questioned my motives and I had to cease the candy distribution. Oh well, there’s a lot of budding little girls out there who will have to go without.

    Oh, so we need to actually make the 'continue story by 5 words' thread *interesting*?

     


     

    Yup.

     

    That thread will outlive all of us. What does it have to do with geocaching, anyway? I thought this General Forum could only have things that had to do with geocaching?

    Hmmmm. I wish to complain about your beard.

    Lately there has been some complaining that the moderators have not been doing their job when threads go "off topic". The Pirate thread turned into a discussion on various methods of giving text emphasis (quotation marks/asterisks/caps etc...). I guess the moderator was just responding to the complaints. (I presume you can see the irony in this.)

     


     

    Strangely, it was dragged off-topic by one of the main complainers of this very thing..... icon_rolleyes.gif

Baggage Handler - A person who packs far too much equipment with them for even the most simply-located of caches: "Sure it's a micro hidden in a bush in the park down the street from my house, but why NOT pack 2 GPSr's, a Santa-sized sack of goodies, water, food, digital camera, video camera, emergency blanket, firemaking tools, satellite phone, radio frequency scanner, marine radio, laptop computer, knickers and pith helmet, sleeping bag, survival knife, climbing harness, grappling hook, hand-held CB, .454 Casull, body armor, flare gun, piston engine, old copies of Newsweek......"

    Even worse are people who demand a subject be closed instead of just ignoring it. If you don't like it, go away! Find a thread that settles your rumbling bowels and hang out there. If you're enjoying it, pray continue!
