  1. I wanted a place for everybody to post unsolicited advice. Here it is!!!!

     

    I'll start the ball rolling.

     

    In my opinion the thing that cause the most blisters when hiking is not adjusting the lacings on your boots often enough. As you hike your feet swell. How much depends on the weather and the load you carry. I usually stop after the first half hour or so and adjust the laces, then at every rest stop. If the load changes, say my niece needs to be carried for a while, I adjust my laces again after 15 or 20 min.

    You have obviously put a lot of thought into this. Wouldn't it just be easier to adjust your fiber intake? :bad:

  2. If your speaking of the style of sandals I think you are, then yes, I have some. Bought them 2 summers ago. Basic leather sandles, but with day hiker tread on them. If memory serves correctly I paid something like 40 bucks for them. I love them. They are my summer time foot wear of choice and serve me well for caching.

  3. I thought it would bounce around too much while walking,but no Problemo!

    Even ajusts,and can lay it down flat on your chest.

    Hmm Sandra Bullock.

     

    Seriously. I bought a little cell phone pouch that I thought would be perfect but tunrs out it blocked the buttons and was too tight of a fit. I'd like to have a clip like my Nextel uses. When will the GPSr manufacturers figure this out?

  4. We are getting off topic here so I am going to take one more swing at making a point then I will bow out. Feel free to have the last word of this brief exchange.

     

    How much cash can you carry?  My first inclination would be "all you like, it is a free country."    But, seems authorities have carte blanche to take it under the guise that it could be used for drugs.  Gee, that sound like a law that can be abused?  Completely arbitrarty and it is actually profitable for them to abuse it!  :lol:

     

    Umm, not any more than is needed. It isn't the 'man' that worries me. He gets his share right out of the paycheck, no need to be sneaky about it. I worry much more about the independent tax collectors who <gasp> take things that don't belong to them. (Feel free to refer to my post above for this little gem of wisdom)Again, common sense dictates that I do not have to worry about this because I'm not a drug dealer.

     

    What if you have a rat in your house.  Can you kill it?

     

    Actually, yes. In fact I kill one every 10 days via Burmese Python. Hmmm, taste like chicken.

     

    Can you install any sort of toilet you like IN YOUR OWN HOME?  Surprisingly, not!    Funny how those who want to keep the government out of the bedroom (when that isn't even a fair assessment) have no problems with the government being in the bathroom.  Think the Founding Fathers wanted a Federal Government involved with toilet choices?  I think not.

     

    Clearly a lot of thought went into this one. Wouldn't it be easier to just adjust your fiber intake?

  5. What's more, how can one abide by the laws if one does not know them. And how can one know them when even lawyers do not come close to knowing them all? There you have a situation where the authorities can be quite arbitrary by selectively enforcing laws.

    I'm not a lawyer or a cop however I feel reasonably secure that I know the laws that pertain to me. If I am going to say, drive a car; it is my responsibility to understand the laws pertaining to that particular venture. Common sense dictates that the odds of me 'unknowingly' embezzling millions of dollars while driving the car are pretty slim. Now if I happen to be working in a bank, handling lots of cash, then I guess I had better figure out what the laws are. Hmmm, 'don't take something that isn't yours' seems to cover THAT one.

     

    Rape, murder, prostitution, carjacking, jaywalking, barking, walking around with wire cutters in my pocket, driving barefoot, wearing white after Labor Day. You know I just can't think of any 'oops' didn't know THAT was illegal. Guess that was your point, right?

  6. ...the need to find something that is missing or needed in your life.

     

    Yea, like my clothes.

     

    You may be searching for a solution to a problem.

     

    Nudity.

     

    To see a treasure chest in your dream, represents your hidden talents.

     

    In my dream my talents aren't hidden at all. Thats the problem! :lol:

  7. I have this recurring dream that I am caching. But every time I look in the wrong place a piece of clothing disappears from my body and is relocated somewhere in the park. So instead of looking for the cache I start searching for my clothes. But again, if I look in the wrong place I lose another article of clothing. I suspect the Geocaching God is playing strip poker with me, and winning.

     

    Last night the dream was particularly scary, I had a Magellan. There was a guy in the park who followed me around laughing at me each time I lost a garment. Mister snooty pants with his "Wuhohohoho, you lost another, no?"

     

    Stupid REM. :lol:

  8. Some hunters will just shoot your dog cause they think they're running off the deer. I've heard of it happening. I'd hate to see something happen to our 2 lovable dogs or anybody elses.

    I'd hate to see the hunter who shot my dog. :D

  9. a clay aiken concert????? ouch, that's gotta hurt. are you well yet?

    I don't I will ever be right again!!(not that I was all right to begin with :D ).

     

    Frankly, I would rather do nude log rolls all day in a field of poison oak and stinging nettles than endure that pain again!

    Your wife is lucky to have you, and you can tell her I said so. :D

     

    And I do think you deserve a staff for being so accommodating by giving up two days of caching for her.

     

    GPSKitty

    Some might argue that by going to the concert and not standing up for your own cache time that you are indeed in need of a 'staff'. ;)

    You havn't seen my wife when it comes to Clay Aiken. Her and her merry band of twits (or Claymates as they like to be called) can make a man do about anything. She even made me tap into my new Garmin 60c fund. I ended up shelling out 50 bucks to her for a shirt, a program, and a keychain.

     

    I swear it was worse than the Jedi mind trick "These are not the droids we are looking for" But it was more like "You will give up 2 days of caching, and you will buy me Clay crap"

     

    As far as I know, no anal probes were used (But then again we are talking about a Clay Aiken concert, so anything is possible!! ;) )

    I was only teasing. Believe me I understand. I once went to a Madonna concert AND a Janet Jackson concert in the same summer because current 'GF' wanted to go. Looking back I can't imagine why. Come to think of it I am pretty sure she was drugging me throughout the relationship. Either that or some form of voodoo hocus pocus. I am feeling much better now. ;)
