Keystone Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I am not allowed to post any more pictures, drawings or other images or renditions of Hydee, or else I will be fired. I am already on double-secret probation. But hey, maybe if I got fired, I would have time to do other things, like find Desk Jocky's multicache! Link to comment
+mtn-man Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 You never know when some local law or regulation might take you out. Good think Keystone didn't have to worry about something that would be REALLY dangerous like some sort of unexploded military ordnance while hiking on this day. That might make you more nervous.

Please remember, this is a topic about people who work or volunteer for Groundspeak only. In honor of Keystone Approver, this is an example of a keystone for arch building.

+sept1c_tank Posted June 20, 2004 Author Share Posted June 20, 2004 ...Please remember, this is a topic about people who work or volunteer for Groundspeak only. Actually, mtn-man is correct, if you read the first post of this topic. However, throughout the year it has been running, I have broadened it somewhat to include prominent or high profile geocachers, children geocachers, suspected closet approvers and just plain geocachers. After all, Groundspeak wouldn't exist without these people, so I have included them to this topic. The intent of the topic is for entertainment and information about the whole of Groundspeak and I welcome any information, especially pictures (interesting pictures) that can be tweaked into this broad definition. FYI, since this topic began in July of last year, there have been 23 different photos of Jeremy published. other photos include : hydee, 10; mtn-man, 6; Keystone Approver, 5; Rothstafari and briansnat, 4; Clayjar, moun10bike, 9Key, and Criminal, 3. And lots of others. Also, FYI, at least 2 photos have been deleted by TPTB. (don't ask, I won't tell you) Many children and other cachers have also appeared in the topic. I invite anyone with quality, identified photos (or stories) to post here, but please refrain from Abject Silliness-type joking and personal conversations. Right now we have a sort of a magazine documenting the history and the present state of Groundspeak and it's members. I started this thread with a magazine attitude and you might say it is the precursor of Today's Cacher. And I want to thank Jeremy and hydee and the other Groundspeak volunteers who have not only put up with, but actually supported and contributed to this thread. Link to comment

+sept1c_tank Posted June 22, 2004 Author Share Posted June 22, 2004 (edited) Can anyone name this suspicious character? Bonus points if you know his alter ego.... I'm not sure but he is definitely a Prime Suspect. The place: Waxahachie, TX. The date: June 12, 2004. Biography for Prime Suspect: A shadowy figure who moves through the night. Few clear photos exist, except for some dusty mug shots stashed in a forgotten file drawer in a dark corner of a rundown police station in one of the more disreputable sections of Istanbul. But the less said about that, the better. He usually works alone, but is sometimes in the company of a pack of nefarious malefactors, rapscallions, and miscreants. Prime Suspect is a charter member of Groundspeak. Edited June 22, 2004 by sept1c_tank Link to comment

+sept1c_tank Posted August 3, 2004 Author Share Posted August 3, 2004 A chronicle of Groundspeak would not be complete without some inside stuff on the ````````“Father of Geocaching.”```````` Dave Ulmer at the Original Stash Tribute Plaque, 9-7-2003. According to this document (a video depicting Dave Ulmer with the first GPS stash including a close-up of the logbook) he was thinking geostash even before President Clinton announced the demise of SA on May 3, 2000. If you look real close, you can see the date on the logbook is 4-3-00. “Celebrating the demise of SA.” Some people don’t realize that Dave’s always been living in the future. In the 1950s, Dave was building transistor radios in Band-Aid boxes. You can find another fine example of Dave Ulmer blossoming before his time in this screen capture of some of his (archived) caches. Notice the dates the caches were placed (1954-1967). And rumor has it, that way, way, way back (before there were forum moderators), “The Father of Geocaching” was temporarily banned from the early forums because of a vocal disagreement with TPTB. Of course, that’s just rumor. Link to comment
+Monkeybrad Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 OK, I will admit that I read the first page of this thread and skipped to the end to post, so if this has been covered I apologize. TPTB mentioned that they someday hope to have a slush puppie machine at the big HQ. I just happen to have a Slush Puppie machine I am no longer using, that I am sure would fit the bill nicely. Of course we would have to figure out how to get it there. Maybe we could even set up a difficulty five virtual sort of a take your picture drinking a slush puppie from the GC.com HQ Official Slush Puppie machine. I could get behind donating a slush puppie machine for something like that. Link to comment
