  1. My cache: GC13TWP was created to give those who care more about a number a chance to earn them....and give the rest of us a chuckle at the same time!
  2. The following is a quote from myself in another similar thread: Not to argue the side points of "cheating at solitaire," (my standards are straight and clear) but I understand the problem that some may have. For ex. I have a cache that will allow up to four extra "found-it" logs, provided adequate pictures are taken at the cache site (if a cacher wishes to do so). What about the possibility of a box on the cache submission page giving the cache owner the abilitiy to either allow or disallow extra "found-it" logs...

  4. Here's one of mine... Inspired by Chain-Chomp. Also a couple of my favorites out there: The infamous "Cindy" A big Blue Bug and what may be the Largest Geocoin ever!
  5. Our group has done several kayak and canoe caches. Pics are in the gallery ----> HERE <---- It takes the caching Fun-Meter to a whole different level!
  6. These are sold locally here at Academy Sports for around $7.00 to $8.00.
  7. Here is a great one! I have solved the coords, just haven't went to find it yet. GCGZQ6 The Scarlet Letter
  8. I just purchased (via craigslist) a Camelbak Kronus. It is in great shape, and I got it for $20.00 Thoughts?
  9. I'd be in favor of an option to *hide* my count... Besides, the number of friends that I've made whilst caching is a far more important number!
  10. To the OP, I don't think a cache in honor of her kids is inconsequential.
  11. It's clear that there has not been any resolution at all here. I go back to my question; Why not eliminate the "perceived agenda" portion of the guidlines and just stick to prohibiting solicitation? It sure would be nice if the reviewers in question were to weigh in here.
  12. First...it's called "Cease and Desist" Second, you didn't look at the "links" page Third...it is the truest definition of "agenda" that there is.
  13. I see. Personally, I was more surprised (and also as much appalled) that GC.com allows the use of their link on an atheist's web page. (see my previously posted link) So let's cut through all of the muck. I understand about solicitation, but you have to admit that the definition of "agenda" is murky. I think that is TPTB would develop a plainer, more cut-and dried definition, then this wouldn't be a problem. Or... just do away with the whole agenda rule altogether, since it's subjective, anyway. It's a pity that questioning the support of our military could lead to this division. Besides...Geocaching.com wouldn't exist at all if it weren't for all of those satellites, anyway.
  14. Pardon me...but if that image is inappropriate for a cache page, what makes it appropriate for the forum?
  15. You are correct. The only agenda was a lady...wanting to publicly honor her children. Geocaching.com should be proud that she chose this hobby and this site to do so, and ashamed that this is even an issue. I've not forgotten that this is a business, but one in which we, as customers, should always have an input. Thanks for the forum and also the ability to log caches online so others can share in their viewpoints.
  16. Refund $400.00 Go get yourself a new GPS with it!
  17. USAF 1979-1985 Mountain Home, Idaho Denver, Colorado Would do it again in a heartbeat!
  18. If the mention of thanking a veteran gets this much angst, imagine mine when I saw THIS SITE with a link to Geocaching.com on their main page.
  19. I have a question. By "supporting" an "agenda," do we mean "fundraising" or just raising awareness? I had a cache denied because we were having a food/coat/blanket-drive for a local soup-kitchen and homeless shelter. I reworded and had no problem (raised a ton of food and clothing for the cause, too!) From what I can see, there is no request for anything other than awareness.
  20. From Webster... agenda 3 entries found. Main Entry: Pronunciation: \ə-ˈjen-də\ Function: noun Etymology: Latin, neuter plural of agendum, gerundive of agere Date: 1871 1 : a list or outline of things to be considered or done <agendas of faculty meetings 2 : an underlying often ideological plan or program <a political agenda> — agen·da·less Listen to the pronunciation of agendaless \-də-ləs\ adjective I agree with the OP. God Bless you! I disagree with pghlooking. God Bless you, too! I would welcome some commentary from the reviewer in question, as well as a lackey or two.
  21. Awesome, Monkeybrad and Scoot! And we echo those comments whole-heartedly!
  22. How about Sunrise on Easter morning at Chimney Rock, NC:
