+Mopar Posted July 20, 2003 Posted July 20, 2003 And that includes the geocaching streak I've been on lately. Sorry brian and the other unemployed cachers out there, but this guy is finally returning to the workforce. I may not have as much free time to geocache now, but at least I'll be able to afford the gas in my car when I do! "(Mopar is) good to have around and kick. Like an ugly puppy" - Jeremy Quote

+hydee Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 the forums could use a break Honestly congrats Mopar! Don't forget to take time away from work to go geocaching! hydee Quote
+The Leprechauns Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 quote:Originally posted by S.C. & T.J.:... what does this have to do with geocaching??? [sERIOUS]A trip through the forums will reveal a good number of posts from geocachers who undergo life changes that have a positive or negative effect on their geocaching habits. We celebrate people who start new jobs, or add a baby to the household. We sympathize with those who find themselves between jobs, joke about how that gives them more time for caching, and admire their courage. We help out people who are moving to a new area of the country because of a new job, who ask for assistance on housing or the local geocaching scene. It is all part of being a community here. I would much rather read about Mopar's good news than a dozen threads about what to carry in your backpack, or why a virtual cache didn't get approved, or whether Garmin is better than Magellan. Congratulations, my friend! [/sERIOUS] And thank God, the rest of us can get a word in edgewise in the forums now! x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x Next time, instead of getting married, I think I'll just find a woman I don't like and buy her a house.

+briansnat Posted July 23, 2003 Posted July 23, 2003 Well this is encouraging. If someone would hire Mopar, then there is hope for me! "Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day" - Dave Barry Quote
