Methinks I detect some sour grapes. Or maybe "good spot, I came too late" envy.

True... that model, while maybe not as fancy as its brethren, was certainly brave enough.Y'all are really hurting that poor gps' feelings.I did apologize to him. And the ebay model DID sell for $50. So that should give him a boost, no?I've been curious since the explosion over there. Did she return your money?Quotes look beautifully boxed when they are all one-liners.

I had to laugh at that. Books are morphing into movies. You read them on a screen, you can see author interviews and commentary, you can read deleted chapters. Coming soon, a behind-the-scenes "Writing of" documentary book. <post deleted> [sioneva] This is a very interesting thread. What you may not have realized is that while I was writing this post, I was drinking coffee, and scratched my nose. Edited out of the final cut, of course.

I think maybe a cachin you should go. Calm down a bit, relax. Let it go.

Now, THAT cache I'd LOVE to find. Where was it? (Yes, I'm lazy.)

Keystone, where are you? Please put this thread out of it's misery!

I'm thinking I'm way too late to enter my mailbox into this cointest, but I'd like to note for the masses that I have a beautiful mailbox that is all too often empty and lonely (except for junk mail and bills - ugh, bills). I like to keep my mailbox happy. So I promised it I'd try...

Nice. I don't see you asking them how they pronounce their name. I wonder if they have ever cached in Minnesoda.

No, not everyone. *sulk* My hit men aren't doing a great job. *bright smile* Hi, Moose Mob! How's things?

I have friends in Siberia. Just say the word. All hail the Blue Bow! Go for it! I feel cranky tonight.

Three people. Killed two... one is in Siberia.

Sure, I hide my secret superhero identity. Doesn't everyone?

Ever heard of the Raid on St. Albans, Vermont? It’s not much discussed in the history books, but I’ll give it a try. Darn Southerners, they just don’t stay where they belong! The year was 1864, and some of the Confederates were getting restless, and needed to get away from the Southern heat. So they decided, what the heck, let’s invade the North… again. Of all places to hit, they settled on St. Albans. God only knows why! 21 cavalrymen from the South, led by Bennett Young, made their way up to Canada, and then back down to Vermont, arriving by October 21. Their goal was to rob the three banks in the town and take off with the money, to help the Confederate treasury. They did successfully make off with $208,000, but that was eventually returned to the town, though Canada refused to extradite the raiders to the US. They stole the horses too, but history is silent on what happened to the horses. Was it a battle? Probably not. A raid, definitely. 1 Vermonter was killed, 1 was wounded, and a shed was burned! The raiders intended to burn the whole town, but the bottles of Greek fire they’d brought with them didn’t work. They did leave a bunch of bewildered townsfolk behind, wondering what the heck had just happened – as one old man in the bank allegedly asked, “Who were those folks?” Historical footnotes: this was the northernmost land military action during the Civil War, and Canada’s refusal to extradite the raiders was considered by some as official recognition of the Confederacy as a country.

That's right. You're just knowsknowschad.

The Blue Bow will smite all unworthy wearers... ... but I approve of the pink shirt.

Easiest way out is to use AdBlock Plus on it. However, the Myopic Dog and I came up with a GreaseMonkey script that put a shirt on his avatar which I thought was a lot more fun. Are you inclined to share? Here you go Probably not the most efficient code around, but putting a shirt on that guy is worth a few extra CPU cycles... I just thought I'd try out this script... Just wondering... can you put a blue bow tie on him over the dark shirt? MrsB Nooooooo!!! TC doesn't GET to wear a Blue Bow!

Two peanuts walk into a bar... Ok, before a mod gets all like "behave yourself" on me I am done. Now, what was the topic again? I think it had something to do with not starting anything. But only Puddles would know for sure. BTW: Which forum is this? Sorry, you got it wrong. It should be "WATT forum is this?" Ohm my! I just can't seem to stop! I think I've reached my capacitor for puns. Before we short circuit this thread, I volt that we resistor the urge to amp up the downward coil of watt has become off topic, we need to transistor back to the topic. Diode to argue those points with you but I doubt I'd transformer your opinions. I hate to be direct about this and buck the resistance, but I don't see any alternative - in the current state, this thread is dying...

Please start a new thread next time. Thanks. Why??????? Lol

No, it doesn't matter... but it sure can feel like it does, doesn't it? When I get feelings like this - and I get them a lot, particularly on road trips - I make sure to take a lot of pictures and write a lot of notes down to jog my memory. Then when I get home, I write everything into a long article for the Online Geocacher's Magazine for the enjoyment of anyone reading. That way, even if my find count doesn't go up, I've accomplished something, and it makes it all the more worth it.

And 90% of that 10% just take a little getting used to. And 75% of that 90% have the letter "E" in their avatar.

I'm very sorry. I really didn't intend to make such a charged post. I'm afraid it was very polarizing. I'll try to be more positive next time, OK? (Truth be told, really, anode better) Electrifying posts like these really make my hair stand on end... when they spark my interest, anyway.

I may or may not have quit geocaching --- actually, I both have and have not quit geocaching. Someone has put me in a box with a vial of cyanide, and I am waiting to see if the radioactive atom decays or not... ... Please stand by.

Perhaps they were attempting to preserve the cache.

Actually most people here are friendly, helpful and courteous, though sometimes with a touch of silliness (I'm as guilty of the latter as anybody). <snip> Silly? Who is silly? I resemble that remark! As far as negativity... everything balances. See?
