1. How did you find out/start geocaching? I saw it mentioned on wilwheaton.net 2. Who/what got you started geocaching? It sounded cool, and there was actually a cache in my (small) town, so I went to wal-mart, got an etrex, and went caching 3. How often you do it? Not as often as I'd like. I'm a stay-at-home dad with a 1 yo and a 3 yo. It's impossible to go caching with them by myself, and my wife isn't interested, so I have to wait until she'll watch the kids and I can get away. 4. How long have you been doing it? 10 months 5. Spending amounts: a. Price of GPS $120

I was wondering that too. I think it's a great idea. I'd love to release some bugs, but I'm just not willing to pay that much when there's such a high risk of them going MIA.

And a quick google for "custom shot glass" shows places where you can get custom printed shotglasses for under $2 a piece.

From the bugs description, I don't think the "owner" realized it was meant for you. Send him a polite note telling him that the bug was meant to be a gift to you from the purchaser, and could he please turn ownership over to you so you can send it on a mission of your choosing. The worst that happens is he says no. Then it's up to you to decide whether the bug continues on the mission of his choosing, or if its mission ends with you.

"I make a mean weed rat stew."

Just log your visit with a note, so you don't mess up the visit count for you, or the cache. I dropped off two bugs in a cache once, and had to post a note in order to drop off the second one, since you can only drop off one per log. Later, I went back and deleted the note, since it said nothing useful.

The $2 coin became the TWOONIE for obvious reasons. It features a polar bear on one side and our Queen on the other. I thought those $2 coins were called MOONIES. Because they have the Queen on the front, and her bear behind.

So, to convert minutes to decimal, divide by 60. To convert decimal to minutes, multiply the decimal portion by 60.
