+Let's Look Over Thayer Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I'll be headed to Norfolk, VA to start my 1-month training track for an Individual Augmentation (IA) in Baghdad, Iraq for 9-months....I never thought a NAVY guy would be wearing an Army uniform and carrying a weapon on the dirt (vice ocean).... It looks as if there will be some "interesting" caching opportunities while you are over there. Here are some excerpts from a few Iraqi cache descriptions... (I had picked up a TB that had just returned from Iraq and I wondered what the caching was like... ) As you see, it's a bit different from micros under lampskirts... Be very careful, broken glass, debris, and security. It also qualifies for moderately dangerous. There’s a lot of high horse-powered and heavily armored vehicles crossing on top. The side approach is a little precarious. The waterborne approach is probably infested with diseases, snakes and those worm things that go up your rectum. When at the cache site, you can imagine some old Iraqi Republican Guard trying to fight with the battle tanks of the 3rd ID that came through this area. GENERAL RULES FOR CACHING IN IRAQ: This cache is in a war zone. It is on a coalition controlled installation; you will need "credentials" to gain access to the area or you may contact the Public Affairs office for Multi National Forces Iraq (MNFI). Mortars and rockets impact near it. Do not post logs that give any references to what is around it; this might help the rocketeers aim a little better. Good luck and Godspeed! Quote Link to comment

+TrailGators Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Did any of you know that Groundspeak has asked that "In the interest of file security, caches that require the downloading, installing or running of data and/or executables may not be listed?" Quote Link to comment

My understanding of this is that you can't have the program linked to the cache page, but it's OK if a puzzle cache requires some special software so long as its readily available. That way the cacher can decide whether or not to download it. Static is an example of that... Quote Link to comment

lowracers_baby Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Hi all, lowracer's baby boy here... Dad (lowracer) is moving us to San Diego from my birthplace of Wichita and wanted to know where y'all hung out online, looks like this is the place. Dad's account (lowracer) is not able to post to the forums due to a clerical or technical error that has defied all attempts to fix it, so he sent me in here, even though I'm only 6months old today and just learnt how to type. Anyway, he'd appreciate a warm southern California welcome. It's not easy moving to a new city and a new job, but he knows he'll have something to do on the weekends besides feedings and diaper changes. I've already found one cache myself, though I was too young to log it at the time. Now that I can type, I'll probably go log that one now. BTW he's planning to be at the Geocoin event, if he can make it. -sky boo aka "lowracers_baby" Quote Link to comment

+Let's Look Over Thayer Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Where do we go to vote????? Does anybody have a link to that?It would be nice to see some of our caches and events get something! It's too late to vote. I guess the link was in someone's log on the event page. I checked the event page but never noticed the link either. Oh well, there's always next year! It's too late to nominate, but it shouldn't be too late to vote, at least not according to the timeline posted on the "Best of SoCal" thread... Here is the timeline for the awards:Nominations - Begin Dec 29 and continue through Jan 31, 2007 Voting - Online ballots will begin Feb 2 and close on Feb 15 Awards - To be issued at the Temecula Valley Event on Feb 18, 2007 Quote Link to comment

There have only been four responses to that thread, so I never noticed it. Anyhow, here is the link for the thread. Edited February 6, 2007 by TrailGators Quote Link to comment

I'm usually in bed by 9. However, if I'm lucky, I believe she said they'll be posting it to the web as well. I have been hearing commercials on the radio today for this...

Yes, I hear a couple words from your son in the promo. The bad is that I think they start the promo mentioning "Buried Treasure".... Quote Link to comment
