As long as your master agrees.

Yes, Sorry for that. Again I would delete his find... in my head. (sorry for derailing your thread.)

I'm not too flexible.. but I prefer my females to be.

It gets more much more coverage here. Really, why does it bother you? You don't have to reply to every thread, you know. Oh snap!

So mean! but so tempting Indeed.. the things I might want to do and the things I do are very often different. I think evil thoughts daily but don't react upon them... I admit it.. I am a conformist.

I would delete his find. He took something and left nothing. And bragged about it. I'd leave a note "took find and left nothing" TFFI (thanks for finding it)

I was testing some Tyvek. I wrote on it with pen and pencil and Sharpee. soaked it for a while in water. Took it out, the writing had not smeared. I wrote on it right away and the pen worked perfectly, the pencil was OK and Sharpee was OK. But it definitely passed the test. I never tried a gel pen. Fedex envelopes work great, but only after they are used. Fedex wouldn't want you to use new envelopes for anything but shipping. Use UPS envelopes... according to a Yahoo news article those drivers make $74000 a year... Being a courier I kinda doubt that fact. But thank you for the answer to what I was wondering.

I didn't peek at the cache page. That doesn't mean I never peeked at the nude beach. (I don't have my searches or notifications set up for anything but traditional caches. That doesn't mean I won't look for your cache but I would need a nudge when it's published. But, yeah, I will look for it) I've seen nude beaches... no one should peek there.... they all look like me.

They all do. I keep mine in feet though because I'm oldschool that way

My thoughts are that you can have the most waterproof paper in the world but if the ink used to write on it runs off it... why bother? I am not trying be argumentative just curious about real wold experiences people have had with waterproof paper. Does the writing not run or smear on them?

Let he who is without sin cast the first Jeep TB.

Yes they are citizens, no they are not civilians.If my house is full of smoke and you kick my door in, you had better be a LEO or Firefighter because if you aint then you don't have the right and I'm gonna stat pointing at you as an arsonist. ~~~edit to remove nests~~~ Technically everyone but those in the military are civilians. I know "first responders" like to compare themselves to those in the military but they are not. This does not mean I don't respect LEOs. It just means I don't think they are any different than "civilians". They have a job to do and so do "civilians". It doesn't make them special.

So answering a bomb call is doing violence? Huh? I call it standing ready to. This appears to be another thread that will go on forever and never have any resolution. I will not be able to convince the citizens who ridicule and poke fun at responders, then yell & cry for help and complain we did not come quick enough when they need us. So I bid this thread a fond fair well. I've always wonder why "responders" use the word "citizen" or "civilian" when they talk about anyone who is not a "responder"? Why the us vs. them attitude? Are "responders" not citizens themselves? or are they better than the general public? "responders" are always saying how they are just like every other group of people and have good and bad people in the group yet they insist on separating themselves from us "citizens". Odd....

Wait a second... You live with your mother?? On topic. My ex would have pretended to hate geocaching. My ex would have loved geocaching. I lived with my Mother till the grand old age of 15. I couldn't wait to get away from her when I was young and foolish. I now live about 3 blocks away and wish I lived closer... she tends to follow me as I pay her rent... I adore my mother.

Sorry. I combined thread titles. My mother and I just got a cache placement approved. She is more excited than I. I was just wondering how many of you cache with family or other people that don`t cache (and complain about doing so) that actually enjoy it and like it? You see... I cache while working and sometimes I take my mother out with me.. she pretends she doesn't like to geocache but she does.... It was confirmed to me tonight when I got a cache placement approved by my local reviewer and told her about it. She asked me what I was gonna hide for the FTF... I asked her to donate something she made by hand.. people (like me) love that stuff. So that is what will be done. Sorry... Just had to rant.. I adore my mother and love it that I have turned her into a cacher by proxie.

I love the interwebs.

An ex-girlfriend of mine had a brother who was killed when he drove my VFR 750 while we were on vacation. It was estimated that he hit the deer at about 175 kmph coming home from a friends place. He split the deer in half but a hoof went through his face shield killing him instantly. It was a dark country road and from what I heard he he no chance to react. Although I know he was going too fast for that road and he used my bike without permission... I still feel bad about it. He was a good guy and an experienced rider. Just not so much on a sportbike. RIP Kevin.

Maybe you haven't read all the discussion of how other people considered attempting these Caches, like multi day camping runs? I don't see that it was set up for the sole purpose of record attempts, just that some people used them that way. A multi-day camping run is still a kind of how-long-does-it-take-to-find-them-all game. It still seems to me that they were placed to be parts of a whole, which due to the volume of caches should have been a single cache or maybe 10 caches. It appears they were listed as individual caches in order to pad the owner's (s'?) cache hide stats or the finders' cache find stats. "how-long-does-it-take-to-find-them-all" is a lot different than "see-how-many-you-can-find-in-24-hours" And since there's a prize at the end of this game...of course the whole thing was made just to pad some peoples numbers. There is a PRIZE? I guess I need to know when the "end of this game" occurs so I can be ready for the competition. Whatever it may be. Oh Yes, the PRIZE...Didn't anyone tell you? Every find or hide you have gets you a number in the big giant drawing...I think they're giving away Groundspeak at the anniversary. Jeremy is going to retire, and let someone new take the helm, but you have to get so many finds and hides so they will know who is qualified I don't want it. Is there a cash equivalent prize?

It started out about a poor family that was accosted at a cache by a drunken fool and then degenerated to ridiculous posts from people with guns, pepper spray and hammers that want to kill anything they are afraid of including dogs. I think that most of us have no problem with responsible owners of firearms, pepper spray and even hammers. Keep up Acquaintance of Chad!

woow you can actually sit in the woods and read? here its either -20C or an army of mosquitoes attacking me, last thing i wanna do is sit still online is where people write their stories, its more permanent than a log book, plus i can read it anytime i feel like If you find older, regular sized caches with original log books you will often see paper logs that consist of a paragraph or two. It's only since the micro explosion that people write little more than date and name, even with the larger logbooks in regular sized caches. Indeed. I haven't been caching long but when I started I thought that "09/24/09 brslk TNLN TFTC" was the norm. I have since learned that it isn't, or shouldn't be. I've made an effort to try to be more verbose when possible on both the online log and the physical one.

I don't wanna say who is doing what but some people are backpedaling and some are outright lying about things they have said.

It's much easier for me. I just let my wife tell me where to go. I sleep better at night doing that.

I honestly haven't found the more experienced (and much older) cachers than I to be rude. Not even here on the forums. Most have been helpful except when I am being an idiot as I do from time to time. Does that mean I get along with all Geocachers? heck no... nor do I want to. I do find that you get back what you give out in the long run. Geocachers are like relatives, you can pick your friends but you can't pick your family (or Geocachers).

Not everyone is a cunning linguist.

I have a Geocaching.com decal on the back window of my new car. I've seen maybe two other vehicles in my city with one. I printed out the thingy that hangs from the mirror but have not gotten it laminated yet. I've even seen in other threads that people have license plates that are caching themed. I'd like to think it's a neat idea to pull into a parking lot at the head of a trail and see a fellow cachers car there. That way when I see someone or they see me creeping around in the bushes we would assume it's a fellow cacher and maybe say hi.
