  1. Yes. I finally let go of the Largest Ball of Twine now we are doing ducks. Thanks.
  2. I got an error message when I tried to log in. But still the same sig line.
  3. That would require me to know what my password is.
  4. I changed my signature line and it isn't reflecting the changes. I remember having this same problem the last time I changed it. Anyone?
  5. Can we have the GROUCHY Keith back? This new one is scaring the children...
  6. And a PARTICIPATION TROPHY for renewing annual membership.
  7. Done. The preceding is from the Little Free Pantry website: (littlefreepantry.org) How does the Little Free Pantry differ from other food pantries? .......
  8. Edited translation sentence. Took out the spaces - they were actually caused when I pasted the whole thing in.
  9. I don't believe that hours of availability would be a problem. I found refrigerated food in the UK. I am sure that these are somehow secured overnight, Yes, the Freedge would be accepted as well.
  10. Added Long Description requirements Thanks for pointing that out.
  11. I guess if there isn't a sign, you take a photo showing contents.
  12. Please take a moment to read and comment on the following category proposal. Free Little Pantries and Blessing Boxes Description: A Little Free Pantry, Blessing Box, or by any other name is what this category is looking for. The idea is simple. The box is a miniature food pantry -- receiving items from those who want to donate, and offering it to those who need them. The most common design is that of the Free Little Library - a post mounted wooden box with a door to protect the contents from the elements. Inside is placed non perishable food items.. Expanded Description: Little Free Pantries and Blessing Boxes are along the same concept as Little Free Libraries but they are filled with donated, free nonperishable foods and personal hygiene products and left in public locations. The Little Free Pantry utilizes a familiar, compelling concept to pique local interest in and action against local food insecurity. The Little Free Pantry offers a place around which neighbors might coalesce to meet neighborhood needs. The typical Little Free Pantry looks like a Little Free Library but they have their own website and mapping network. (visit link) The motto of the little free library might be Take One, Leave One. The motto of the Little Free Pantries box would be Take what you need, Leave what you can. The preceding is from the Little Free Pantry website: (littlefreepantry.org) How does the Little Free Pantry differ from other food pantries? The LFP is small, so it cannot stock the quantity and variety other food pantries can. For this reason, it should not be relied on for meeting pervasive need. Many food pantries require application before use and have set hours of operation. Anyone may access the LFP at any time. Food pantries operate as service providers, those who use them as clients. The LFP dissolves that professional boundary. Whether stocking or taking stock, everyone approaches the LFP the same way, mediating the shame that accompanies need. Food pantries are critical in addressing food insecurity. But some fall through the cracks. The LFP is a safety net. The LFP is a proving ground, testing concepts like community, charity, justice, and sharing economy. Instructions for Posting a Little Free Pantry Waymark: Long Description: Please include a description of the FLP, its location and some of the items which are inside. A minimum of TWO ORIGINAL SENTENCES are required. Language Requirement:"If your Waymark submission is located in a non English speaking area, please include an English translation in addition to your country's language. Photo Requirement: At least TWO photos are required. One close up and one showing the FLP and surroundings. Additional photos are appreciated. Naming of Waymark: Title: Name - Town/City - State/Province - Country. Instructions for Visiting a Waymark in this Category: First and foremost respect the privacy of anyone in the area. Post at least one photo taken during your Waymarking visit along with your comments about the FLP or your visit. As of this draft, there are no photos in the description. Do they need to be added?
  13. Glad to know I'm not being singled out. I have had at least FIVE APPROVED waymarks declined due to changes in the category of the past three years. The ironic part is that I was once an officer in that category. Then I was "removed" by the leader one day.
  14. So two of us are having this problem is there anyone else or we just "special"?
  15. I don't believe it has anything to do with a specific browser. I just reviewed 8 waymarks. Had to log in 16 times. And as for my comment in my original post - 4 replies and I still haven't gotten anything saying anyone has replied to my message.
  16. I just reviewed 5 waymarks. Upon completion of the first one, I got sent to the ERROR SCREEN. The next 4, when I clicked on the waymark to review it took me to the Waymarking login screen. I logged in, when I completed the review, again it took me back to the log in. All waymarks are gone from the review que, so I am guessing aside from the logging in 8 times everything worked. Unrelated but I've also noticed that if I mark the "Notify me of replies" in forums, I don't get a notification if someone replies.
  17. I review a lot using my cell phone. The other day just as soon as I typed one letter the text box expanded, about two lines worth of text, and covered the approve/deny buttons. Regardless of what I did short of deleting the comments, I can not get the boxes to reappear.
  18. After going through all 524 entries in Permanent Charity Donation Locations, I see three different types of waymarks: Donation Bins Storefronts Recycling Stations The category description reads: "Permanent locations used to collect clothing, household goods, non-perishable food, and other items for charity." None of the waymarks I see have anything to do with food donations. Most of them are donations to organizations which resell the items to benefit their mission. These are not Little Free Librairies by any means. The Little Free Pantry organization has a website http://www.littlefreepantry.org Where I live, Galveston County, Texas, there are several of these locations. These are 24 hour, anonymous food banks. Used by people in need when they do not have access to the other resources . Two that I see on a frequent basis are stocked solely by community donation, with no affiliation to any business or church. If these should be considered Permanent Charity Donation Locations then Little Free Libraries should be in the same category as Libraries. My $0.02 worth.
  19. After several failed attempts I bring this here: Upload Complete There is no image with that ID HyperLink [view link] [view link] [view link] [view link] [Click here to upload another image] Anyone else getting this error?
  20. I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers by that statement. It was meant "tongue in cheek". What I meant is that Geocaching gets all the "cool stuff" and Waymarking is left by the wayside. I sincerely apologize if I offended anyone. John
  21. If we are talking about Waymarking Mobile (geotrailsw.com) I have contacted Chilihead about the recent problem. Currently you are unable to log into Waymarking from the app, which makes it almost useless. He spoke with his contact at GroudSpeak and they told him that they were making changes on the Waymarking site and that is the problem. Personally, I have used this website, as it is not an app, for setting up over 1500 waymarks, so I am really at a disadvantage when it comes to posting new waymarks. I actually had to get my gps out and figure out how to use it again. I don't expect to see Waymarking or Groundspeak doing anything to assist in getting this up and running because we all know that Waymarking is dead and our membership money goes to pay for Geocaching.
  22. I guess I should read Forums a little more frequently. The category was Woodmen of the World Headstones. Somehow K13 was promoted to officer. There was no group vote to promote K13 or another individual who was also promoted at the same time. As an officer in Woodmen of the World , I want to personally apologize to you for what happened. I hope that this doesn't cause you to lose interest in this wonderful hobby.
