husqui Posted July 9, 2002 Posted July 9, 2002 He kinda looks the Green GeoBlin, I mean the Green Goblin (for all you Spidey fans). But without the evil demeanor. Quote
+Strix Posted July 9, 2002 Posted July 9, 2002 Alaska! As in Gnome, Alaska? (Sorry! Getting punchy!) "When the chips are down, the buffalo are empty." Quote

husqui Posted July 9, 2002 Posted July 9, 2002 ...Nome, Alaska, was originally so named because it had no name. Eventually, this spot in the middle of nowhere that people referred to as "no name", was shortened to Nome. How about that Batman! And to go a little bit further (I know, this is off-topic) .... Nome holds a place in history as the site of The Great Serum Run. Back in the winter of 1925, diptheria struck Nome and children were dying because of this disease. Serum had to be delivered to this town but neither trains nor planes could get to the outpost due to a severe winter storm. Eventually, a relay of 20 sled dog teams braved over 600 miles in a record 5 and half days to deliver the life-saving serum between Nenana and Nome (the hero of which was a Siberian Husky named Togo, who ran over 300 miles with Leonhard Seppala, the legendary musher). The modern day Iditarod Race is dedicated to both dogs and humans who participated in this legendary race. But I digress... I still think that your Gnome looks like the Green Goblin. So there! Quote
enfanta Posted July 10, 2002 Posted July 10, 2002 He sorta reminds me of someone I used to work with so, how about "Cheryl"?? Quote

Kije Posted July 10, 2002 Posted July 10, 2002 Kije think he look like great American President Dick Bush. Where else find one angry dwarf and many solumn faces? Maybe no. Some people think maybe call him Kije but he no real troll. Think name him Triumph after famous dog. Kije Quote

imeagle Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 Good cache names would be: Gnome alone? Gnome on the range? Where everyone Gnome's your name? He looks like a "Gnomely" gnome to me. Gnomer Simpson? If you fly like an Eagle the Turkeys don't bug you!!! Quote
+GeoVamp Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 Well about Gnome-dome since he is shiney and he or her is covering the cache I would follow my GPS to the gates of Hell if it pointed that way. Quote

+TresOkies Posted July 12, 2002 Posted July 12, 2002 I would name him LOL (pronounced LALL) as in Laugh Out Loud, which is what I did reading this thread. -E -- N35°32.981 W98°34.631 Quote
imeagle Posted July 13, 2002 Posted July 13, 2002 Since he is playing sentry to the cache..... Gnomer Pyle If you fly like an Eagle the Turkeys don't bug you!!! Quote

+CarmenClemons Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 MissJenn, Gawain isn't the Green Knight. The name of the poem is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The Green Knight's name is Bertilak. So the gnome could be Bertilak. There was also a second Green Knight called Pertolepe. Or Dagonet, after King Arthur's fool. Or you could name him after one of the dwarves in the tales, Druidan, Evadeam, Frocin, Melot, Tristan (not the knight, of course), or Tronc. Or you could name him Bob. Bob the Gnome. Quote

+MissJenn Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 Thanks for the correction, CarmenC. Wow... all those Arthurian names you just listed would make for a cool series of gnome-protected and/or thematically related caches, wouldn't they?! Hmmm... ----- You must be present to win. Quote
+Team Gootz Posted July 14, 2002 Posted July 14, 2002 How about "Waterboy" for Adam Sandler fans? Isn't he carrying a couple of buckets? Fairy tales & happy trails help old women stay young. Quote
