Well, she said something like that when Alan admitted not knowing who Wil Weaton is. How many here can name the actress that played his mom (Dr. Crusher) without googling/seeking an answer. (I can't)

Oh, come on now. Even I know that one. Farah Faucett!

Well, I don't think that I resemble any movie star or famous person. You can see a photo of what I resemble HERE, but that is an older photo. I still look something like that, just, well, older.

 

As you can see, I come by the moniker RED honestly and if you look close enough, you might see the freckles and eyebrows that are tell-tales signs that I'm a true redhead. As for the REDWOOD part... well, I live in the Redwoods of Northern California. I have always thought that it was a fitting handle/nickname for myself. It beats the CB radio handle that I carried around for 20 years: Queen Of Hearts. Off with his head!

Wil Wheaton, what about KernBob, isn't he a famous artist? and Choberiba one of his collectors?

 

There will be a series of outdoor art caches soon.

While it's true that I am an avid collector of all things Kern, I'm afraid that you'll need a greater following to be considered a true celebrity.

 

ObTopic: If a major celebrity (like Salma Hayek, Ben Affleck, Chris Rock, Matt Damon, George Carlin, Alanis Morissette, Jason Lee or whoever) were to place a cache. Would you be more motivated to find it than if it were to be placed by regular folk?

Depends on the celebrity. The only reason I might hunt for a cache placed by Ben Affleck is because he might put something related to “Sum of All Fears” - same way I might search out a Wil Wheaton cache for some ST:TNG memorabilia.

 

Now if Ozzy Osbourne placed a cache, I'd actually go out of my way NOT to find that cache. icon_razz.gif (just kidding for all you Ozzy fans).

Er.. I got news Chobe..

If Salma Hayek ever placed a cache, nobody better dern well get in my way, cuz you'll think the Tasmanian Devil just went by you, trying to get there 1st, just to see if her scent is still on the container. It will probably be in a cave full of Vampire Bats and be called "From Dusk Till Dawn Cache". I'll be the guy on the end of the table drinking Wiskey from her TOES.... GULP!!!

Now, if Sean Connery, Mel Gibson or Kevin Costner (in that order0 placed a cache, no matter where it was, I'd be on the next transport in that direction! But heck... you could say that about any cache within a hundred miles of me!

 

So, who has written to Wil Wheaton to volunteer taking him Geocaching? I don't live anywhere near him, but I think he probably wouldn't mind it if the person wasn't a slavering idiot about the whole thing (not like me around the above mentioned male actors, right?).

 

Personally, I think that if we got The Shrub involved in geocaching, that would be fun... can you imagine the secret service guys out hunting in the wilds of Alaska for an ammo can?

*bzzzt!* "Negative Eagle Four, and the Boss Eagle is getting pretty uncomfortable in the limo... can you speed this up?" *bzzzt!*

I'm so disappointed in you folks.

That entire list of actors appeared in my favorite movie. (No cheating by heading to the IMDb)

 

*bzzzzt!* "Eagle Two, this is Eagle Four... You know, I'm just not feeling fresh today?" *bzzzt!*

 

*bzzzt!* "Roger that Eagle Four, we'll swing by Walgreens on the way home" *bzzzt!*

You know, I hate to "strike back" here, but I think you're "chasing amy" on that one, Chobe. I mean, you sound like a "clerk" or a "mallrat" with this kind of speculation. You've been hitting your "secret stash" and spouting "dogma" again... I HATE that! I think your "view" is "askew", "Bluntman". Why bother? Your attitude is "chronic"!

 

'Nuff Said!

Comic books? Me? Nah....

DOGMA was a cool movie, but Salma was MUCH HOTTER in From Dusk Til Dawn...

I think he would be the coolest geocaching buddy - next to Oregone.

Well, if I ever see him here in Tallahassee (I'm pretty sure he has a home here) in Cabo's, I'll be sure to tell him all about it.

While some might consider it "Vulgar" to start "Drawing Flies" around that "Big Helium Dog" of an argument you were trying to make. I'm not that much of a "DareDevil".

 

Red - if you get a chance to watch the movie "Drawing Flies" (Jason Lee seeking bigfoot in black-n-white) I suggest you go right to the commentaries (best part IMHO)

 

Watching all these independent flicks has me all geared up to produce the first geocaching movie. How do you think Tresokies will look in fishnet stockings?

At a concert a few months ago, a parrot head friend of mine (who got me hooked) said Buffet was already doing it. He talked about it a bit on stage and was working on a song for it. My friend reports it was actually a bit of a parody.

 

Geocachers don't NEED to ask for directions!
