  1. Hmmm, looks like mine is 3.23... 1.06 for me. You know the old saying: A cache a day...
  2. This seems more like an advertisement than a scam alert.
  3. Thank you. Those are actually my favorite conditions for caching. It's cooler, the air is clearer, and the clouds make for some great (even astounding) photos.
  4. Tough question! Here's what I came up with: Traditional Caches: Gyrus Balboa Park and Cache Golden Hammer Caches That Require a Lot of Gasoline: Zis is KAOS, Ve Don’t Bush-vaak Here! Triwizard Tournament League of Extraordinary Geocachers Caches That Require Some Pre-Trip Thinking: Monopolizing Your Time Crossword Double Direction Maze Obviously, there are many wonderful caches that are not on this list, but these all had something a little different that makes me remember them with a smile.
  5. Depends...are you going to loan it to Flagman?
  6. I made up some 2"x2" magnets that look just like my avatar, with "QDman" at the bottom. They're not near as nice as some of the other sig items on this page, but they'll do.
  7. I'm partial to the musical pieces form the "Man with no Name" trilogy Spaghetti Westerns: Hugo Montenegro's The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly; A Fistful of Dollars; March of Hope; The Ecstasy of Gold; and my favorite, Hang 'em High. Hawaii Five-O is pretty kool too. I remember watching the original series with my dad. My grandma (RIP) had a crush on Dano; she's probably chasing him around right now! I was always partial to Che Fong, the crime lab guy. Go figure. As far as songs go, how about: Climb every mountain, search high and low Follow every byway, every path you know Climb every mountain, ford every stream Follow every rainbow, till you find your dream
  8. Is there a Moun10Bike coin in the cache?
  9. I think you should mind you own business. I think she is.
  10. Oi that is so embarrassing. I use that site for their great .gpx maptool. I was over there when that was first launched and thought I would see what "The Milestone" was all about. Acckkkkk! I actually emailed the webmaster, Robert, and asked him if he would edit it for me . . . obviously he didn't. Hey Karen, I guess if I say, "You rock!" you'll know why.
  11. I know I'm bummed! I still say "missed it by that much!" This was a tough month! First we lose Gilligan and now Maxwell Smart! I guess this means my childhood is officially over.
  12. "Sign the log, claim the find." OK, as a slogan it ain't, "Two men enter, one man leaves," but it'll have to do. Or maybe, "It ain't what you think, it's who's first with the ink." I'll stop now.
  13. Funny you should say that. I tried to give blood the other day and they rejected me because my iron count was too high (must be one of the LXG things) and my blood pressure was too high. One week without Geocaching and my whole body falls apart! I feel like that guard in the X-men movie who had to take dinner to Magneto in the "metal-free jail" after being injected with iron. I just hope I don't explode like he did.... Just promise to use your new-found powers for good, and not for evil.
  14. Stopped by Max's today to liberate Larabee. Grabbed a D! and a D! misprint. Thanks, Tom.
  15. Congratulations to Chuy, for exhibiting the intelligence, bravery, strength, and stamina needed to rescue The Princess Bride!
  16. FYI, I came home from church today to find a 3-foot rattlesnake in my garage. Heartland Fire was kind enough to take the critter away. I've seen coyotes, skunks, and possums in the neighborhood before, but this was a first. Be advised.
  17. How about this: You hide a cache. Cacher X can't find it (even though it is there), assumes it's missing, and places their own container, complete with log book. I come along and find Cacher X's cache and sign the book, thinking it's your cache. Do you allow the find?
  18. As a rule, I don't read long posts. Usually, they are boring accounts of occurrences about which I find it difficult to care, especially when they are filled with spelling and grammatical errors. Sometimes they are whiny tirades about not having a cache approved. These usually include the above mentioned errors. In fact, this post has just about reached my limit, so I'll just say, "Harmon, you write it. I'll read it."
  19. I was looking for a cache in a beach cave using my eXplorist 500. It fell into about 6 inches of water. I pulled it right back out, gave it a quick wipe with my shirt, and it's still working fine a month later.
  20. I'm just going to change my sig to "Congratulations to (insert cacher name) for hitting (number)!" Seriously, good work Reids, Rowdies, and Smilinglady13.
  21. What if there was a road or a word behind the cache symbol, not just a solid color? Figuring that out and making it a new symbol to overlay the cache would probably take more time than it's worth. Doing a DB check each time a layer is built would probably be the best way, but that sounds like a waste of resources. The check boxes on the map already cover words and roads.
