You folks are worried about spent shells, pocket knives and knitting needles? Doesn't the mandatory full body cavity search bother anyone? They do that to everyone right? Right?!?!
I guess that would make your avatar look like this as well...
DOH!

I gave up not 1 BUT 2 days of caching to drive to Omaha so the wife could go to her Clay Aiken concert!!!
That just put Weasel in first place in my book. You poor, poor man. Forget the staff, this qualifies you for Sainthood.

Probably helps keep the muggles at a safe distance as well.

Whats crappy is that the weather was so perfect here. I wonder how many newbies had a bad 1st time experience.

I always suspect the cache owner can see me, and is laughing at me, when we hunt in the little suburban parks. Paranoid I guess. Good thing I keep my foil hat on.

You could always get a pointer.
GOOD DOG!

Clearly this is a conspiracy by 'the man' to inhibit our enjoyment of Spring. Everyone wearing their foil hats. I have mine on and I must say that it is dashing. If cooper can cure your golf swing then aluminum can cure migraines. Right? RIGHT?!?!?!

Seems to be something going on today. Lets see what the "daily excuse" rolodex says <Flip> Ohh boy it is a good one, Solar Flares. Hopefully some of the smart science people can answer this one for us.

Usually it's when I'm tooling around city streets at residential speeds. Can I get injured? Certainly but it's my choice and I embrace it and take responsibility for it.
I am not about to attempt to inform someone about what they should or shouldn't do. You are right It IS your choice, 110%. I will defend your right to make that choice, regardless of my personnal feelings
Now, I told you that story so I could tell you this one. 80% of motorcycle fatalities occur under 25 mph. Be careful and ride safe.

Wow, thats a lot of a## for one post, I must be done.
you are supposed to use $ not # in that word in place of the S
To obvious. Here, there be kiddies.

Anything I think may be fun will get a lot of attention and usually more than my share of replies. (cough cough, abject silliness). I mostly ignore, unless I have a smart a## comment to make, the highly debatted threads. (The virtual, digging, tread lightly, crappy trade, stole my micro) The there is what I like to call the Jacka## threads. Started by bluthering fools. Mostly I attempt to ignore these moronic rants of self indulgence. Sometime I can't just help it and I have to open a big can of smarta## on someone.
Wow, thats a lot of a## for one post, I must be done.

I beleive it, Johnnie, I'm sorry that I'm not more interesting. I must bore them to tears.
Oh I pride myself on entertaining them as much as possible. Someone has play secret shopper.

Ours is wacky as heck. On one cache it was placing it 410 feet away. Even though we where standing right by the cache. I'd say we averaged about 60 feet off today. Did not get in as many as we had hoped for but avoided any DNFs.
-
Read my lips "NO NEW CACHES" Wait, thats a bad thing. Nevermind, I don't deserve the staff and funny just won't cut the mustard. After lossing my job cause the plant closed down I started drinking. Wife took the kids and moved in with my old boss, the one who fired me. Bank repo'd my truck this morning, looks like I'll be walking to those caches. Seems like everything I value has gone from my life, except my old k9 friend, Gunner. Man's best friend, <sigh> Gunner, here boy. Gunner? GUNNER? <sobbing>.........

Not sure but since the 60cs came out our cobra it has been screwing up alot. Think it is trying to tell Ani, uh I mean me something.

Actually the Gov't scans a lot more than most Americans would be comfy with. Average Joe need not worry, and best be happy about the efforts of our boys. The things you see on CNN are only a diluted fraction of second hand intelligence. Big brother is watching.

Really, the "Treasure Hunt" line is just that, a line. Not a bad thing but not exactly TRUE to the sport (game, whatever). It is not about treasure, never was as far as I can tell. The spirit of the hunt, I believe, is what keeps cachers caching. Thank God for that. We have all gotten frustrated with poor trades and lame caches. I know my expectations have shifted from cool swag to cool hunts. Thats really it for us, finding caches in great locations or that have are great challenges. This is a great game (sport, whatever) that we are happy and proud to be a part of.

Squeezing Your Peeps
The Surgeon General has determined that "Squeezing Your Peeps" may result in loss of eye sight, hairy palms and low sperm count. On a personal note, are you caching in my area?
-
Prime, the most common explanation for this is a low self image. You need to download and install the "self esteem" service patch.
OMG! ROFLMAO x 3! Keystone, you kill me dude. We need to have a beer. Heck, I am sure I owe you one or two. PS - Please return my t-shirt at your earliest convenience.

OK, I told you that story so that I could tell you this one. Caching for 7 months now and have never met a fellow cacher in person. (yes Briansnat it is MY fault for not going to the cache events, I get it already. I SAID, I GET IT. STOP BIRD DOGGING ME!) Two weeks ago a stage on my mystery cache was muggled. Been working a lot and I honestly wanted to replace the stage but the process is fairly labor intensive.
Well today was AWESOME, 70 degrees and slightly overcast. In short, perfect caching weather. Ani and I head out to grab one new cache and one old one we have been meaning to get to. The first one is called "Speed Trap". Bottom of a hill and the cops hang there ALOT (Hence the name). Well I'm not real bright and I'm watching the GPSr, watching the road (a little). OKAY, OKAY I was watching the GPSr when the arrow goes LEFT. Woops missed it. Look up and guess what? Yep, non descript black sedan sitting right there. Lovely. Well I look at him, he looks at me and he is not a cop. Turn around and pull in right next to him. Guess what, he has a caching sticker! Not sure exactly how I greeted him but it was something like "Hi, howyoudoing?YouraGeocacher.Lookingforspeedtrapcache?We'reJohnnieStalkers." I might have been a little excited. We chat for a while. He is shows me his PDA and scolds me for not going to the last cache event. (Yes, Briansnat, I KNOW!) He says "Hey Johnnie Stalkers, you've got that On the Rocks Cache right? The one with stage 2 missing." OK so I feel about 2 inches tall. My cache sits disabled and I'm out caching. Looks like I got busted at the SPEED TRAP after all. He asks for a hint, I help him out, of course.
We find the 2 caches and head home. I get right to work on stage 2 and take it out to place it. After it is in place I decide to walk to the cache and read some logs. Walking past stage 1 I notice a couple bent over looking at something that looks suspiciously like a GPSr. I cruise by them and say hi. They say hi and the guy puts the "PDA" behind his back. Hmmmm, interesting. I walk on around the bend. Turn around and come back, they are indeed looking at something . I can't help myself. "Excuse me, but you folks wouldn't happen to be geocaching would you?" Sure enough it is Team Smurkinman. How sweet is this! Two teams in one day, simply amazing.
So after 7 months of caching I finally meet another cacher, 3 to be exact. What are the odds? Think I just might have to go to some cache events.
I love this game. -

We should build a database of all the geocaches and make the data available on the internet. That way when the bombsquad gets a call, they can look up the coordinates and see if a cache is there. Then their only excuse will be stupidity.
Brilliant! But who will run the website and what should we call it? Maybe we could even have forums so we could talk about all these important issues and get to know our fellow cachers even BETTER. Great idea!

"Our concern is the time consumed. The four fire trucks, the bomb squad, ATF and police were tied up with this for approximately three hours," said Giordano. He said he was also concerned that "in this day and age, people want to play these 'Star Trek' games."
I think it is pretty clear this guy embarassed himself and is now trying to shift some responsibility and focus onto Geocaching.
You KNOW the guys from the ATF and Bomb Squad are laughing their a%%es off. Excuse me, did you just call the ATF over a wooden box with McToys in it? Wonder if it is an election year? I'd be willing to bet he has a new snappy nickname, something like Trippy. Hmm, Trippy Giordano. Has a nice ring to it don't you think?

You all don't get it. If someone actually wrote the perfect geocide note that was obviously a 10 we would never get to read it. The language used in this note would be seen as such an obsenity by the moderators that it would be deleted before anyone got a chance to read it. For all we know the perfect geocide note has already been written, but we never saw it and the poor author was so distraught that he commited real geocide.....

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'.
