  1. QUOTE (DigiFerret @ Aug 13 2004, 01:24 PM)

    If anyone wants a different item with the "motto" on it, let me know.  I'll add it to the list.  Everything should be marked "at cost".  I just did it for fun. 

     

    Glad everyone likes the shirt! 

     

    I want one that says, "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

     

    I'm rollin' every time I read your signature.

     

    Tie-dye. Good idea OzGuff!

     

    I've been thinking about that. Just trying to find some graphics to go with it!

    As far as colored shirts are concerned, CafePress only does white (and a light yellow?). I did find a UK site that does black, red, and blue, but it'd cost you about 50 dollars US to order one.

     

    Thanks for th input! Hope to have a few new things soon!

  2. I was out caching today and was bushwacking through some dense bush and trees. I happened to scare up a couple of young squirrels. They ran up a tree about waist high to me, and stopped to see what I was. I just stood there for a second, and then did something really stupid; I tried to do a "squirrel call".

    All of a sudden, they both started chirping at me, and one of them ran right at me and went right up my leg! Did I mention I was wearing shorts?

    Well, like any well adjusted outdoorsman, I jumped 6 feet into the air, screaming like a little girl , and ran out of the woods.

    I did eventually make it back to the cache, but not without carrying a big stick with me to fend off the killer squirrels.

     

    Oh, and the first person to make any jokes about about "squirrels and nuts" gets a smack on the head! ;)

  3. I tried it again this morning and finally got a result, but it only had ONE cache in the query. I should be able to get them all since there are less than 500 (283, I believe).

     

    This is the info I gave for the query:

     

    Run Once

    Selected type (locationless)

    any container

    I haven't found

    Within-none selected (for all locations)

    Origin-from home waypoint (you HAVE to have a beginning origin)

    Within 100 miles (also has to be selected)

    Placed-none selected (for any date)

     

    Anyone have any suggestions?

  4. Actually, the term I frequently hear is "Geomuggles", but muggles is also commonly used. The way I understand is that this is recognizable termanology and geocachers are adapting it to suit the "geo"world. It's the same way the term "geocache" came into being, really. Someone took one recognizable term and modified it to suit the need of the sport. It very well could have just as easily been called "Electronic treasure hunting" or "The world wide techno easter egg hunt"; but those aren't as catchy, are they. The fact that almost everyone knows what a "muggle" is is what makes it so easy to adapt. I can think of half a dozen things "easter eggs" refer to besides actual eggs.

  5. I did receive notification that I submitted a cache for approval, I just never received a conformation email. It appears it was approved this morning. I have had several other caches approved over the past week, and had no problems with them.
