  1. I wouldn't mind seeing an icon for "stroller friendly". I'm thinking more on the lines of off road stroller (or one of those jogging strollers) as opposed to something like a rail trail or bike path. If the terrain is not very steep and would allow a "big wheeled" stroller to traverse it, why not icon it? I would do a search for that type of cache when the family's going caching together. Just a tought. Thanks.

  2. Anyone else notice the fact that the airbag didnt deploy?

     

    How fast do you need to be going before that sytems fails on impact? :D

     

    *edited for typos*

    Initial impact was at the passenger side door, front airbags wouldn't deploy. Notice the side airbags did. After impact at 90 MPH, the car tore apart so any sensors, and for that matter, the whole electrical system is rendered useless.

  3. Not a total wreck...the left rear tail light is still perfectly good.

    Actually that is the key to an Audi. The key is a flip out style similar to a jack knife. Press a button and the metal key flips out of the plastic body which contains the panic button and lock, unlock button. The case is missing from the photo. Either way, it's still a shame...sweet car.

  4. I'm looking forward to it. I hear there pretty tastey too. I'm thinking of having a Cicada Roast Geocaching Event. To log it as a find you have to eat cicadas.  B)

    "What do they taste like?

    Periodical cicadas are best eaten when they are still white (teneral), and they taste like cold canned asparagus. Like all insects, cicadas have a good balance of vitamins, are low in fat, and the females are especially high in protein. They are also Atkins friendly!"

     

    Yummy!

  5. the baseball like term where as you hit 1/2 (.500) of the balls pitched to you while you're on the plate.  Then thinking further

     

    Another baseball term...

    " A man with four balls, should NOT walk!" :D

     

    Congrats, Mopar!

  6. Thanks for bringing back bad memories.  I lost my best friend on April 1st. So sad, we were in college. I called him and told him his mother died and when he broke down crying I yelled "April fools!".  He wanted nothing to do with me after that.

    No offense...I wouldn't either! :(

  7. Um.......Are there NOT enough attractions at Disney where one could go to enjoy the day / vacation without caching? There must be several caches outside of the park to hunt without having to place or hunt one IN the actual park. Also, I'm a little curious if the placer really thought that he could place a cache, that looks like a cell phone with stuff attached to it and NEVER have it found by park employees to only cause a stir like it did? Come on! I don't know when it was placed but, if it was prior to 9-11 he should've returned to the park and removed it, if it was after 9-11 it shouldn't have been placed at all. Not only was it an inconvinence to park goers but it was a huge threat to the Geocaching name. If I was going to a giant venue such as a theme park, I would make sure NOT to search out a cache. By poking around bushes, public telephones or anywhere like that, is just asking to be detained and questioned, with the end result of possibly ruining a vacation. I can't wait to read the story of some idiot that placed a cache in the middle of a beautiful landscaped entrance to a theme park and writes in the cache description, " You need to bushwack only a short distance...but please, be discreet."
