...The Girl

Yeah, all those references to defecation sure classed it up.

To continue with Kit's theme ... I dislike caches disguised as rocks hidden in HUGE GIANT piles of rocks or cinder blocks or broken up cement barriers. I also dislike the term "muggle" and all its various forms. I hate Harry Potter and don't care that it's a carry-over from that. In fact, the Harry Potter association only makes it worse. I think everyone using the term should be strung up by their heels, fed Ex-Lax and then, after they have befouled themselves, face a firing squad of poo-flinging monkeys. Or maybe they they should just run along home and have their mommies change their nappies and put them to bed.

You could tighten your straps a bit and see if that helps. If not, I recommend a really good sports bra.

This is one of my all-time favorite posts! I'm also terribly fond of Team LaLonde's "The Crap That Changed My Life" story. Classic. Thanks to McPhan for bumping this thread... it cracks me up!

Looks like you picked an appropriate alias!

It ain't just Iowa ... it's happening *everywhere*. For those of you who think there are some areas you can't hide anything *but* a micro, I submit exhibit A ... A Criminal Education, which is a gigundo cache hidden right smack dab in downtown Seattle. ACE is a masterpiece of ingenuity and a fine example of what can be accomplished if hiders would only put a little thought and effort into their caches.

Hi, Elaur ... welcome!

... only if it warms up some ... it's freezing out tonight!! I might try to do Nerkagra again tomorrow.

The only place where wit or fun is allowed is the "invitation only" area for Charter and Premium Members. It's all very Super Secret Squirrel. As a matter of fact, I could be banished for mentioning it. (good thing I'm using my sock to post) If you're posting any mirth in the Lesser Member areas, or what I like to call "the forums for the unwashed masses", you will be dealt with in the harshest of manners. Hey, why does my post say ...The Girl?

Criminal and I made cheesecake last summer on an overnighter: Heat 2 cups of water Tear open the blueberry pouch Add ½ cup of cold water to the blueberry pouch Tear open the cheesecake pouch Add 2 cups of hot water to the cheesecake pouch, stir, and let sit for 10 minutes Pour blueberry pouch into cheesecake pouch Tear open the graham cracker crumb pouch and pour into cheesecake pouch Eat.

I notice the thread title says it's a "Football size lot ... ". I do hope you meant a football field sized lot, otherwise you're going to need some teeny tiny mirrors and eenie weenie geocachers and most of the geocachers I've met are you regular run-of-the-mill sized geocachers.

Uh, how's that? I'm not sure what Criminal feels like and I'm not really willing to find out . I can actually speak from first-hand experience on this one ... but I'm not going to. Although I will say he works out. He works out a lot.

Helga, you so need a new GPSr.

I've found OFF! towelettes to be useful as well as Steri-Preps and bandaids or a first aid kit. I also keep a pair of leather work gloves in my pack. Oh, and plastic grocery bags for CITO. Welcome to the forums.

Hi Torry! Oh yeah...Bug spray....LOTS of bug spray for Arkansas.... Let me guess....you have coordinates for the refreshments? Congratulations on your first find! Word to the wise ... you might wanna be careful accepting food from The Pig.

First finds are very exciting, congrats!

What she said. I think the topic is about geocaches on people’s front lawns, not your asinine beliefs about handgun owners. Dude...this is a friendly debate... Why are you attacking people that do not hold to your beliefs??? I don't understand what part of Criminal's comment is supposed to be an attack. From where I'm sitting it looks like Kabuthunk is the one "attacking people that do not hold to (his) beliefs". I also find his comment highly offensive, but as Criminal pointed out, the topic here is not about the psychological stability of handgun owners, but geocaches on people's front lawns, which, as I noted above, I do not care for.

My only fear of muggles is the actual word. I find it disturbing.

YAY! Congratulations and best wishes!

For anyone who'd like to hunt a larger cache that's not a "gimmie", try this one ... and I dare you to find this one. Double dog dare you.

I've DNF'd one micro and one regular sized cache. I finally found the regular one which was hidden in the woods which had acquired a covering of newly fallen leaves. I will never go back to look for the micro ... it was no fun looking for it the first time around.

My experience was much like Boot's: I chose a multi close to home. Little did I know it was going to weave me in and out of three zip codes to gather the information needed to solve the puzzle. It's still one of my favorites and I use it as a bug drop when I need one.

I'm not sure it's possible but you might try posting your question in the coins forum, maybe someone there can help.

Although I don't live close enough to help out with good caches, I highly recommend steering clear of Skyline Chili or anything that tastes like Skyline Chili. Bleh, bleh, and double bleh! If I were you, I'd pack a few Founder's pizzas from The Rock and bring 'em to Ohio with me. Okay, I probably wouldn't really do that but I love those pizzas!

If you start with premium cans, they don't need sanding. Mine have never been sanded and are as smooth as a baby's bum, thankyewverymuch. I'm not saying Criminal doesn't know good cans when he has his hands on them... the cans he had to sand must have been standard ones. Edited to fix over-snipping of the sbell quote.
