I think acronyms are more recent in usage, perhaps only going back to the early twentieth century, mainly due to wartime activities and organizations. I will accept corrections on that. If you have access to a print version of the Oxford English Dictionary, turn to page 715 in the compact or 2791 in large version.

+Upham Posted November 10, 2002 Share Posted November 10, 2002 I was caching in a nice little common at the edge of town. It had a lot of history it seems it was an old chain factory. I had a lot of really nice stone work and a beautiful river. I finally found the spot where the cache was and found I was on some sort of a bridge.I went around and under figuring that was where the cache was I got to a spot where I couldn't see and took out my flash light to look in the rock wall and found toilet paper stuffed in the rocks I looked down to find that I was standing in human waste. I think I would have enjoyed the cache more if they s*%t in a plastic bag. Quote Link to comment
lujack Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 In the park behing my Chicago home, people carry plastic bags to clean up after their dogs. They then throw the bags into the 55 gallon drums used as trash receptacles. Young people, being young people, will take these bags and fling them into the trees. Most snag on a limb and become odorous tree decorations. I've seen a tree looking like it was bearing some strange white fruit. So now they've started doing this in the forest? Quote Link to comment

+ottor Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 I have an explanation of what’s being found hanging from those trees.. A while back I was doing some solo camping, and before bedding for the night, I took my food – consisting of some pretty lean ground round, a couple of steaks, and other side dishes wrapped in plastic bags, and strung it up from a tree. Gotta keep it from the critters, ya’ know.. A little later that night, I hear some commotion in the camp, and I looked out of my tent and saw this dadgum bear – jumping and swinging at this hanging goodie bag. It was just out of his reach, and I just laughed like hell !!! Well, that scared him off, and I went back to sleep. The next morning I was ready for a good breakfast, and went to take the food down. The rope had been placed higher on the tree trunk, and I couldn’t reach it. Well, I took a little run and jumped to try and get the bag down, and it was just out of my reach.. I tried this for hours, and finally after getting a large stick, I was able to bring it down so I could grab it with both hands., When I got it open, It was full of Bear ****… As I was scratching my head, trying to possibly conceive how this happened, I heard this little noise behind a rock… I walked around the rock, and there was that dadgum Bear – laughing his *** off – eating one of my burgers… So – that’s how they get there!
