  1. That is quite a list. Looks a lot like mine. I've been thinking about a "So ... What have you been waiting for the longest?" topic. Start one? ... or shall this suffice? ©¿©¬
  2. No free shipping? ©¿©¬
  3. I just noticed the Fouke Monster is being immortalized on this coin. I lived in east Texas for a few years, not too far from Fouke (pronounced "Fowk"), Arkansas. The Fouke Monster, of course, starred in The Legend of Boggy Creek. I used to drive by the Monster Mart on U.S. 71 in Fouke. They had a silhouette you could poke your head through and have your picture taken with the monster. Monster Days are still held every spring. Good stuff! I gotta have me one of these. ©¿©¬
  4. Sweet. And I even made the survey. (Shucks folks, I'm speechless.) ©¿©¬
  5. Here's a link to a link. EDIT: Credit Vargseld? ™ ©¿©¬
  6. Oklahoma (TAG) from Moore, OK taped to a 3x5 index card inside an intact #000. ©¿©¬
  7. Run fast! ... Faster!! ©¿©¬
  8. [big sucking sound] Impressive pre-emptive strike by the FSM. Nice work. [/big sucking sound] ©¿©¬
  9. Reckon ICM would buy one? Or a Gollum coin perhaps? ON TOPIC: I don't readily find the relevance to geocaching, but that doesn't mean I won't spring for one or more. ©¿©¬
  10. I ask the same question. Soccer? Football? Pricey. Can't garner any interest from the locals either. Pass. Maybe a future trade? Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. ©¿©¬
  11. Sounds like I've just been plain lucky those loose coins flopping around in the mailers have all made it to me thus far. Prolly just jinxed myself. On the coins I've mailed, I cut used bubble mailers to size, placed the coin between layers, taped the edges, and placed it inside an intact bubble mailer, then use clear sealing tape. I also put the recipient's name on the package inside the package. Seems to have worked well. Prolly just jinxed myself again. This might work for the infrequent trade, but would be a real PITA for hundreds of mailings. What Alex has done -- stapling the cellophane to a card --- seems to be a good solution. Prolly just jinxed Alex. At any rate, given recent occurences, mass coin mailers need to pay attention in the interest of customer satisfaction. ©¿©¬
  12. Eight DNFs against 22 finds the same day. Four of the eight were by the same hider. It's okay. He's a good guy. ©¿©¬
  13. I'll wager those crake coins would have been really cool. ©¿©¬
  14. Same here. Firefox 1.5.0.1, although appears to be browser independent. ©¿©¬
  15. Granted, I may lean a certain way. Who doesn't? Alright. I'm an icon ho. There. I said it. Can someone please provide coordinates of the nearest 12 step program? Regardless, while I own and try to obtain coins with unique icons, I have also passed on some. That doesn't mean I don't still want them. I also own and try to obtain other cool coins for different reasons. There is no hard, fast rule ... but varying shades of gray ... for me anyway. ©¿©¬
  16. That's it in a nutshell. You have two segments in collecting - Those that like coins and those that like icons. I like both coins and icons. I like anagrams, too. ©¿©¬
  17. What are you talking about Willis? Mick hasn't lost a step. Were it not for the same trademark issues, there could be a Stones Tongue coin. Alas, that has nothing to do with geocaching either. But wait! There could be an ammo can on the tip of the tongue. That qualifies. ©¿©¬
  18. The commercials are the best part. And ... this has to do with geocaching ... how? ©¿©¬
  19. See my profile. Click the Trackables tab, then the coin icon of your interest. Use 'em as you like. ©¿©¬
  20. If I had to choose three: 1. Bluebonnet (Lupinus texensis) - She's a beaut! 2. KSWader - Love the Wizard of OZ! Have you seen Wicked? 3. Kansas Tornado LE - It's a twistah! 0,1 <-- My two bits. ©¿©¬ EDIT: Honorable mention for both Yawp and Lord Pomsby. The Tiki coins are awesome specimens!
