  1. Borrow this guy's shoe.

    Yes, the photo is faked. I don't think there are any photos of the actual incident, are there?

    B) My high school history teacher did that (shoe banging) when discussing that particular speech. That and eating chalk. But not at the same time. The chalk-eating was caught by unwary students coming back from lunch early. :anibad:

    A side note: Is it dead yet?

  2. There are some lovely oak trees in the park across the street that give HUGE acorns, and I've been wanting to do something with them for a while. So I went to the park with the bitty one today and picked up a likely-looking specimin. Coming soon to a park near me.....

    :sad: Wow! I'm no so sure I like you very much. Are you planning to hide that amongst the other acorns?

     

     

    OKok, I was just joking. Don't go getting all worked up over it.

    No. It's going in a pine tree, 'cause I'm schitz I mean kind like that.

  3. I'm going to second, third, fourth... whatever we're on at this point, that your experience was not with geocaching, it was with shopping. Second, pick an easy cache in a spot you know. I found my first few while very (VERY) pregnant and without a GPSr simply by examining the satelite map and knowing the area. I still find some this way if I happen to be in a place I've researched and can pick out the cache area from the map. My unit cost me 50 dollars and no it won't give you step-by-step instructions, but it does point to where you need to go as the crow flies. I will admit to being able to "get above myself" very easily and look down at a map in my head (which is probably why I'm always the navigator on long trips, but I digress) but it's not a superpower and I'm not 100% reliable. I urge you to try again. It really is fun.

  4. There is an area in Nevada that is perfectly nice - although it's a bit long and thin, I would have no problems bringing my family there.

     

    But after reviewing the maps more closely, under NO CIRCUMSTANCES would I step foot more than a few dozen feet to the east or the west.

    Power Trails not withstanding of course. I think someone broke a record here not long ago.....:rolleyes:

  5. I just used this and I'm SO happy! It even went back and changed all my stuff for me. Fabulous. Now I feel bad about my logs in the logbooks fron a couple days back. Help purge me of my guilt!

  6. OK so I haven't logged over 200 yet but the thing that frustrates me is that I'm forever forgetting a pen; I've signed the log with a bit of a stick and some mud before, or leaving a pen from my geobag (which at one point contained over two dozen of the things) in a cache or accidentally taking a pen from a cache and then not realizing it til I've gotten home. That and cloudy days under heavy tree cover. Ticks. I don't react to poison ivy (hurries to find some wood to knock) so that's not a major issue. So, my pen amnesia is an issue. That and not having a cache partner.

  7. Sometimes I take, usually i leave. i definently leave something if I take something, but I don't always take when i leave. The best thing i ever left in a cache was a lovely opal ring I got from a man I loved a while back. I left a note that whoever took it should give it to someone they love, too. That there was still room for him in my heart bu it was tome to move on, and that I had promised to never pawn the ring. In keeping with that promise, i'd placed the ring in the cache so it could bring someone else joy.

  8. The non political agenda rules don't apply to trackables though.

     

    Vote McCain Geocoin!

     

    Vote Obama Geocoin!

     

    :unsure:

     

    My first reaction to this was "What, are they two sides of the same coin? Now THAT would be funny." Alas! As to the OT, I must agree that it's the link that makes the difference. If it could raise ire, no matter the topic, if ONE group plays EVERYBODY gets to play and that would just be too much.
