+robert Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 this is the most OFF TOPIC topic i have yet to see, and the charge was led my a moderator. You're complaining? I welcome the change of pace. It is a lot more pleasant in here without attacks and whatnot. There are a few off-topic threads, but the vast majority of posts are about geocaching. You forgot *plonk* Quote Link to comment
+TeamK-9 Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 (edited) So, will KA be running on the Democratic or the Republican ballot? [Edited by moderator to remove sentence relating to original topic that this one was split from.] Edited January 18, 2004 by Keystone Approver Quote Link to comment
+PeachyPA Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 PeachyPA jumps up and waves her hand asking, "Can I be in charge of the Immigration Service? I used to work for them when we were in the Justice Dept. answerable to the AG; now it be under Homeland Security. I still remember the official colors of the visas that State Dept. puts in passports." I made it to GS-9-3 at that time! Please............... I was good at interrogation and refusing entry to persona non-grata. Quote Link to comment
+carleenp Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 So, will KA be running on the Democratic or the Republican ballot? He must be either an independent or the newly formed geo ballot! Quote Link to comment
metaliklabs Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 And my part in the geocaching "land" would be an annoying tellamarketer! Quote Link to comment

Keystone Posted January 18, 2004 Author Share Posted January 18, 2004 I am happy to explain why I've kept this topic open. The original topic ought to have been handled in private correspondence between the topic originator and his cache reviewer. (By the way, fortunately they were able to work out the questions and the cache was approved.) I didn't see a problem with turning the topic into a positive and humorous discussion. I did acknowledge that it was derailed from the original topic and for that I do apologize. But the derailed topic has been enjoyable and, indeed, it is on-topic to geocaching. We are having fun discussing the roles which various geocachers would play if the Federal government were run by geocachers. On-topic fun is most welcome. If folks would prefer, I can split out all the posts relating to the K.A. presidency into their own separate topic. Quote Link to comment
+Sparky-Watts Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 If folks would prefer, I can split out all the posts relating to the K.A. presidency into their own separate topic. ......and then pin it to the top of the forums? Quote Link to comment

+carleenp Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 (edited) Carleen is unqualified to hold a government position. She is quite sure that this thread used to be in a different forum and is now suddenly here. Thus, she is delusional. Poor confused Çarleen.... Edit: Oh dang, I see it the explanation now. Never mind. Edited January 18, 2004 by carleenp Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted January 18, 2004 Author Share Posted January 18, 2004 This topic was split off from another topic (unrelated) over in the "Getting Started" forum. See the first post in this topic for details. Sorry for any confusion. Quote Link to comment

Keystone Posted January 18, 2004 Author Share Posted January 18, 2004 uperdooper - No, I am more laid back since Groundspeak started shipping a fifth of gin to me every week, instead of free Signal the Frog merchandise. And I am sorry, but Mopar has previously been appointed Secretary of Transportation. You can be Director of the Federal Highway Administration, reporting to Mopar. Man, would that suck. (The reporting to Mopar part.) Quote Link to comment

Keystone Posted January 18, 2004 Author Share Posted January 18, 2004 If Doc Dean is going to be Sec of HHS can I be Surgeon General?? I've always wanted a uniform but I'm too scared to join the armed forces Well, Congress (under the capable direction of CO Admin, Speaker of the House of the Frog) was considering the nomination of Sturgeon General for the post of Surgeon General. But they thought "something was fishy" about that nominee, so I'm glad to offer you as an alternative. Thanks for volunteering! Quote Link to comment
Cholo Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 So, will KA be running on the Democratic or the Republican ballot? The fact that this thread has been allowed to run along freely would suggest the Democratic party. However, if he is serious about holding the office and not having to fret such piddling annoyances such as:getting the MOST VOTES; the answer is obvious. Quote Link to comment
+Stunod Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 (edited) I hereby appoint stunod as CIA director Hold on...is this because of that picture of me wearing women's clothing? I can explain that...well, actually I don't really remember it. I'm never drinking fortified wine again... Oh, wait...J. Edgar Hoover was with the FBI, not CIA. Forget about that comment above. Move along...nothing to see here. Edited January 18, 2004 by Stunod Quote Link to comment

Well, if it isn't a cabinet post, it should be. I feel as the most feared warrior on the Plains (please disregard the "Kill Whitey" tatoo on my shoulder) I would be extremely qualified and fair (paybacks are heck).

Tahosa and Sons Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Land managers would come to your doorstep and pick up your cache, then they would plant it for you and also supply all the goodies for the Cache. All you would have to do is watch the cache and let them know when its time to re supply the swag. Quote Link to comment
