+Unkle Fester Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 If someone wants to play baseball and doesn't have a bat and a ball, they cannot do it either. Is baseball an eletest sport? I you don't have a car to drive some place, you borrow one or take a bus, or walk. Maybe travel is eletist. I have the tools to geocache cause I wanted to geocache. I didn't get everything all at once. I don't travel nearly as light as I used to. Cause I have more than someone else (even though I've earned it) should I share my wealth with others? Sorry. And that's exactly what the people who support the things you oppose want you to think. I'll show them... Quote Link to comment
+dougshep Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Look at it this way, to become a commerical airline pilot you have to have a college degree, work hard to obtain your private pilots license, log hundreds of hours of flight time as a private pilot, take a certified commercial pilot couse either at a private school or with an airline, then work your way up the ranks to captain then there are the hundreds of hours of continual training and simulator time. OR do you think that it isn't fair that your local garbage man can't just walk up and get a job flying the plane you are taking on your next vacation????? IT'S JUST NOT FAIR!!!!! Who in world doesn't have a computer or have access to one and GPSr's are cheap enouph you could sell one of your 5 tv's and buy one. Sorry to rant; I just don't understand because not everyone is able to do something it is suddenly unfair. I would like to gave a hot wife and a fast car but I can't afford it, IT'S JUST NOT FAIR!!!!!!! If you can't afford the toys you can't play. There is no intended exclusion we just are not born with at GPS in our heads. I am so sick of this - "Its not fair" crap. I wasn't aware that Geocacheing was a Constituional right.

While the humorous replies have been entertaining the ones that seem to be seriously replying to a thread started with the singular purpose of poking fun at the forums have kept me ROTFLOL.

How about checking these out they have a 50' range and as far as I'm concerned we don't need that many feet once we are in the vicinity. I was not joking about the clearance rack.
