That´s so kind of you, but I prefer to get my own LOL But who knows I might turn up at your event next year or maybe already on the 18th Quote

+Ble68 Posted September 4, 2007 Posted September 4, 2007 (edited) Oh my gosh!!! As I go to get my mail guess what I find? A surprise package sent to myself? No way? Could it be? Then I thought no it is probably just a trade, but then to my surprise as I open the package I find another smaller duck taped package! Making it even more suspensful as I open it I see the card! Then out falls the coin!! Thank you so much this really put a huge smile on my face!! I will do just as I said and make it into a necklace! It is such a great gift! I will post some pictures later! Now to go find some of buggys to go along with it! This will make a terrific present but it may just have to spend some time with me in my collection until I get all me supplies. Thank you geocoin bug! I hope that someday you get something as great as this to put a smile as big as mine on your faced!! Edited September 4, 2007 by Ble68 Quote

+mousekakat Posted September 4, 2007 Posted September 4, 2007 Mr O'Coin is racking up some serious good karma.... I really do hope and pray that he gets all the wonderful things in life he deserves back! May the bug spray stay far away, the fly swatter always miss, and the bug zapper short itself out every time it's plugged in, Mr O'Coin! Quote
+wyohunter Posted September 4, 2007 Posted September 4, 2007 Congrats to all the latest that have been bit! Quote

+The Amigos Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Congrats to all! Hey, Buggy, you could fly through Texas sometime, ya know! lol Quote
Theotokos Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Has the bug made it into Canada yet? I'm new on the block and don't expect to be on anyones Christmas list (just yet anyway) but was just curious as to the migration patterns and if Canada was a destination? It's fun to read about all the various mystery coins around and it seems we need to get something going up in the great white north too.. Anyway, congrats to everyone that's been bitten and good luck to the hopefuls out there. Quote
+sweetlife Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 We havent been bitten by the bug yet. Seen a picture of the coin once and it is very cute. Wonder if the bug ever plans on traveling to NorthEastern Wisconsin? We probably couldnt be so lucky to ever be bitten by the bug. Camping and vacation comming up soon for us and we are sure we will be bitten by other bugs while out geocaching and sight seeing. Congrads to al who been bitten by the bug so far. Barry and Val sweetlife Mountain, WI. Quote
+Dolfy Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Now I lay me down to sleep I pray for the bug that I shall meet. I'll wait by the mailbox as each day goes by In hopes for a package Fly buggie fly! Quote
danoshimano Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) Got a package in the mail today. At first I thought someone I traded with was having a brain-fart day, because the return address on the envelope was my address. Opened it casually during dinner and first pulled out a business card from G. O'Coin B.U.G. Esquire (Waster of Resources). Huh? And here's the coin I found inside: WOW! I love it. And those pink eyes glow yellow in the dark. Thank you G. O'Coin B.U.G. Esquire, whoever you are! EDIT: Danoshimano was totally oblivious to all of this! When I received my bug package today, I had no idea what was going on. Edited September 7, 2007 by danoshimano Quote
+geocachingdragon Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 CONGRATS Cant wait to see that one. Quote
+Droo Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 Woohoo.... way to go, Dano. You must be doing something right! Hmmm, I wonder what that is so I can do it too.... Quote
+derschlings Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 What a hoot!! I think the very fact we're here means we've all been bitten... oh how I hope the Mrs doesn't check out the Discover Card statement!! Quote
+lindsychris Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Congrats Dan! The bug started biting in July: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=167652 Quote
Flying Spaghetti Monster Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Merged duplicate threads since nobody likes multiple bug bites Quote
danoshimano Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Merged duplicate threads since nobody likes multiple bug bites Thanks. I was trying to post in it right as you were doing it, and thought it was another PHP burp or something! I guess the Geocoin Bug started up right as I was going on vacation and I missed out on the whole thread. But now I am bitten! Quote
danoshimano Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Has the bug made it into Canada yet? The bug landed in Ontario today! Quote
+dflye Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Ode to a Bug (G. O'Coin B.U.G. Esquire, that is) Bugs that bite, Bugs that crawl. Some hold on tight, Some not at all. Many we have held you can see: Up north in Victoria's Bug Zoo, Where they grow as big as can be. When picked up, watch out for doo! Bugs that fly, Bugs that burrow. Some are easy to spy, Others make brows furrow. At the zoo our story does not end; Down south caterpillars they do race, Up a string the competitors ascend, Sometimes they stick to your face! Bugs that swim, Bugs that sting. We'd crawl on a shaky limb To get ahold of this bling! Bugs of all kinds we do adore, Whether crawling, flying or hopping. Won't you come knock on our door? We can't afford more coin shopping! Quote
Theotokos Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Has the bug made it into Canada yet? The bug landed in Ontario today! Yes I see that...fantastic and congratulations...that is one very nice coin. Quote
+The Amigos Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Dear Buggy, I know we invited you to come join us in Texas, but I fear, it will have to be soon, or not for a while. You see, we are hosting a geo event in November, and, bad people that we are, we told everybody they needed to wear bug spray to avoid being bitten. Now, you see bug, around here, the bugs aren't normal-sized, they are TEXAS-SIZED, and they get swatted at with bats, slapped at with beachball paddles, and sprayed with anything one can get their hands on, because if not, they've been known to carry away small children!! And if they DO bite you, they don't leave bumps, they leave MOLE HILLS! I just couldn't bear for this to happen to you, so please, Dear Buggy, don't come to Texas anywhere NEAR November 17th!!!! Love You Dearly (and looking forward to seeing you sometime!!) The Amigos Quote
+Dolfy Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Congrats for the bug bite danoshimano! Quote
+mousekakat Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 Congrats, Dan, and LOVE the poem and pics, Dflye... Love the look on your son's (?) face holding that giant bug, hehehe! He's a brave little guy! Quote
