WHEW! for a minute there I thought you thought I was this one of a kind. No, No, No! The only thing I recognize is the t-shirt and tags...why I otta. oh, and love the Sleepless in Seattle t-shirt, I'm wearing mine tomorrow. Good t' hear that s-o-m-e-b-o-d-y liked the Sleepless tee. After workin' my poor ol' fangers to th' bones on that design what do I have t' show for it? A sliced fanger and the sad fact that I haven't seen a single gal wearin' that tee; pictures sure, but not in th' flesh. Note to Self: Truth is I was delighted by being asked to do that design. Puh-lease, every gal that wears a Sleepless in Seattle t-shirt this week please post your t-photo on this thread. Thank y' very much, Harmon I wore mine at the campout..just look at the pics in facebook Harmon!..Oh wait..you dumped that other site didn't you? Selling and wearing. Skillet, Thanks pal, now I have what's fashionably called closer on a t-shirt graphic. Back when I was a boy they hadn't invented "closure," so folks used another approach called "Get over it." Nowadays one must find closer while being proprely hydrated and while Tweeting I suppose. Seriously, does this look like a woman that would Tweet? Hey Jodi, y' done good on those tees. Thanks to you that graphic is restored and in our public domain. Have I ever mentioned that you are on my "Awesome Women" list? Note to Self: That should boost my social-capital by nine or ten points. BTW love the new Tee and hoodie! J&J did so much work prior to the event and it's greatly appreciated.

Congratulations to The Fat Cats and welcome to the Yrium-card social set. Once Tom releases your card he'll contact you to pass on the secret handshake. The hard part of doing an Yrium-card layout is finding source images that can be used to express a theme chosen by the related recommender; in this case, Ramona Retired Snipe. How odd it is this time that I happened to be the photographer for the main source image. The theme? Well, to feature the Fat-Cats Avatar, Sue and Mom, Chelsea the GeoDawg, Puzzle Queen, and a Jeep painted blood-red as a tribute to Sue's renowned surgical skill. (Tell me about it.) Here's a link showing the source images used. Yrium TNG 16 Source Images Hurrah for The Fat Cats, Harmon SD Rowdies Note to Self: Change sheer-strip before dinner. Thanks to Flagman and SD Rowdies for all their hard work this week getting these cards ready. So glad to see the final product after looking at the drafts. BTW when you all get to read the back of the card there's a note "rookie on the side of the road." That was me on my third Geocache outing. And it's lead into a great friendships and love of caching. I hope everyone enjoys!

Puh-lease, every gal that wears a Sleepless in Seattle t-shirt this week please post your t-photo on this thread. Thank y' very much, Harmon The better looking half of J&J was spotted this weekend wearing her sleepless T-shirt as she was schelping off brand new t-shirts and sweatshirts that had a "NEW and IMPROVED" design according to the saleslady. Hmm, there's a trend here ... you always seem to be at the scene when Geochicks are on th' move. Oh you have no idea. LOL We're out in the desert. We're at a cache on cross over trail, the farthest trail North in Ocotillo Wells, and Durt, W9Jim and Chuck B pull in. W9Jim goes "Boy, you run some real low air pressure in your rears or do you have a flat?" A quick look back and yeah it's real low. So we pull out into the flat trail. I put Snflwr into the drivers seat and have her pull the jeep forward as I inspect the tire. Seeing no punctures I lay down behind the jeep and have her drive FORWARD reminding her not to let it roll Backwards. Sure enough I find the offender in the back side of the tire. So break out the jack and tool kit. And "The Perp" decides she absolutely has to learn how to use the jack. Oh did I mention it's me and five geo-chickies? TFC's SNFLWR, and Sparks n Smalls. So up pulls the previously mentioned three and I'm standing there as "The Perp" is throwing all her weight into this jack. And I'm just like embarrassed that I'm letting a woman jack my jeep and just standing there. But NOOOOO she had to do it. And did it quite well. She then learned how to use GASP sharp instruments to ream and plug a tire. Sorry Harmon she's now even more equipped to inflict harm with a whole new series of tools.

Just when I thought J&J ran out of duct tape. That's what John gets stuck with when he leaves Jodi in camp and he goes out on a night run.

Just when I thought J&J ran out of duct tape.

Yes uh oh! Infected, new tear or paper cut? I know your working hard.

Wow That looks really good. So glad to see. You would be happy to know that everyone was WELL warned whenever "The Perp" got near a sharp instrument. Also the Perp was loudly exclaiming when the desert took it's own sample of DNA right through the bottom of her sneaker. And yep the first responder had to remove the sharp bloody instrument of pain. No other remedies we're required. Unless her foot doubles in size by tomorrow.

Okay lots to make up for. Been having to many laughs in the "this just in" forum. J&J 16000 Amazing. 1,000 puzzles of course the Fat Cats are proud of Flagman, and MLRA HOF! LuLu 9K what an accomplishment. Will have to get that Jeep up to the OTT and bounce up those numbers. LLOT 700 Puzzles must have been prepping for down time. Hope number 701 comes ahead of schedule. Kawikaturn 11K did we hit that on the OTT and we missed it? Great Job!

That is good to hear. I would suggest, however, that if it remains jaundiced, that it would be a good idea to have a doctor look at it... Thanks pal good to see that pointy fanger pointing back at me. Looks like that hand has already had an amputated fanger. Doc didn't forget anything did he LLOT?

What an awesome view of GC2HYPE White Knuckles And GC2HYQ4 Super Slide

Holy Smokes..how much blood did ya lose?. It's kinda strange because John was just talking about the old geezer Harmon and how easily he sheds blood, yesterday out in the desert with Splashes and KickBakJack.. I wonder, was it our fault? Yeah, for shore ... Sandy always says "We're not really caching until Harmon is bleeding." Yes indeed, the wonders of old age and medication for my hearteries. Kind of ironic that you were hanging out with that bunch of desperados on the same day that the Unnamed Perp' butchered me. Janie, for one, can tell you what it's like t' see me bleed because she cached with me during my year of having to take Plavix once a day. Plavix makes y' bleed like a fountain. On th' positive side of this problem ... my blood is always fresh daily. Life is good, Harmon Note to Self: The Unnamed Perp is sure a nice ol' gal. I can see it now, Border Patrol will see all that blood and thank someone was murdered. There's always three sides to a story. Side A, Side B and some where in the middle is the truth. The warin' and cuttin' was happening at the same time. Of course the "perp" didn't want to give up her GOOD woodstock shirt for a bandage so I had to root around and dig out that buried thing from the back of the jeep, with the red cross thingy on it. Ol Harmon does bleed like a turkey with a broadhead through the blood pump. And the "perp" kept saying how sorry she was. As she was signing the log and taking pictures. I think Suzi's owner was looking for a bigger rock, either to put ol Harmon out of his misery or to act as a parking brake since we weren't going anywhere for a minute, not sure which even today. The above statement is a true and accurate description of the event that occurred on November 6th: Signed The First Responder. I hope Ol LOTT is careful with who he caches with once he's up and runnin' well walkin' then runnin'. He can't afford no blood loss either.

Say, would it be O.K. if I just pick a few San Diego County aliens to bus over to you. You can keep 'em so no return charges involved. How many can y' handle? We've got what you might call an unlimited supply. Sincerely, San Diego Rowdies Why I oughta.....

Honk (Excuse me) mmmmm beans!

GC1Q4VD This is one of those motion detecting tombstones that scream at you when you get within 3 feet of it. Located behind it, in a rock wall was an ammo can. With no hint it made several of us jump. Sorry no pics. This one's held up very well but it's in the Southern Californian desert.

Congrats!!! Wow!! How'd we miss that??? 16,000!!! Congratulations, you two!! AWESOME YOU 2! Which one was it? 16,000 You're fingers must be smoking! Must be trying to catch the KWver's while they're on "vacation". Great job you two!

Wow, Congrats again kwvers!!! Can you imagine their numbers if Mr. Kwver didn't have a real job?! Great job you two! Hope you're having fun on the summer trip.

What beer, I'm not even old enough yet! I always enjoy the games and activities part. One of my favorites was the ammo can toss... I am so going to steal that for our next beach bash down here in San Diego. For me it's social butterfly. Although I can easily be lead astray for a close by or interesting cache. Couldn't resist the Earthcache so close to our 10 10 10 event this weekend.

Congratulations, Chuy!!! Nice job CHUY!

WoooooooHoooooooooooo!!!! Congratulations you two. Quite the amazing story. Was a pleasure to finally meet you at 10 10 in the sand.

If you look closely at the three khaki (desert colored) tubes on the wall and compare the height to the folding chairs next to them, you'll get a good idea of these "Yuma Micro's" They're large mortar tube cans purchased from Marine Corp Air Station Yuma AZ. A couple of these have made their way out of Yuma and now reside in Nevada and San Diego area of California.

You just wanted to tease me with all those BMG Range caches. Looks like I need to plan an extended trip this year.
