As most of you know the Channel 11 news came out to the LI event a couple of weeks ago.

I just heard from the producer and she said they are planning to air the spot Sunday Aug. 8th.

If something changes I'll let you know.

 

I hope I don't look fat on TV. :o

wow, that's kinda cool... we had an article run in the local paper a couple weeks ago about caching. to be honest, the article didnt do us cachers justice. but hey... at least they spelled most of the words in it right! :smile:

 

but whats also kinda weird... i get the wb11, which is based in nyc... and i live right close to lake erie, an eight hour drive from nyc... how does that happen?

Well I just went through the program guide and considering they only play the news at 10 O'clock, I set it to record that one :smile:

 

artbegotti...Any chance you are a satellite subscriber? If so, that may be the reason.

no... it might have something to do with the fact that it might be the closest wb station to where i live... like the cable company has to have the "big four" stations or something... whatever they call cbs, abc, nbc, and the wb collectively... if that's even the four in that group...

The first morning I woke up in Bennington I put the tv on to see what was going on in the world and somehow heard SUBWAY PROBLEMS for NYC. We also had NYC WB for the longest time.

 

Of course not anymore, which means I don't get to watch it tonight!

 

Grrrrrrr....

Don't worry Nancy, I'll be taping the show and putting it up on ligeocaching.com.. I'll let everyone know when it's up.

Well the news is on and I'm actually really nervous!! Did I sound like an idiot? Did I say anything stupid? Did I accurately represent geocaching? Did I lose the Long Island accent? :huh: Time will tell. :huh:

You were great!!! No mistakes and you said all the right things. I loved StayFloopy on there too!!

 

If you have it online I'll show it to my kids - they'll really get a kick out of it.

 

Congrats!

You looked fat.

 

 

 

Greaat job! My GPS made the piece, but I didn't, LOL.

Hey! The camera adds 10 pounds! :huh: And yes, there was only one camara wiseass!

AAAaaaacK!

"Some people get really creative with their caches" .... hmmm who could that be???

Seriously ... pretty good piece. :huh:

The camara loves ya Marc! Nice job. Shamu said bury!!! AAAhhh!

As expected, I missed the broadcast as I was going for just one more night cache on Long Island. <_< I'll watch it later.

you were on it Po. 3000 this year? How about 3000 this month? Today probably right?

Well, a few cachers went right out and grabbed the cache already. 3 co-FTFs at 12:50 this morning. The FTF prize is an autographed photo of Lolita Lopez. I need to get a couple more now.

You and SF are famous. Have someone take a pic of you two together and signed. That would be a nice FTF prize <_<

I listened to the segment over the phone -- Thanks, Squealy!

 

Sounded AWESOME and of course I was excited to hear VERMONT mentioned...

 

12:50, a.m.?? Oh, boy.

 

Great job, Joe, can't wait to see the tape.

That's worth the drive alone! (hope she doesn't read the forums!) <_<

 

Great piece, they were able to simplify geocaching down to a couple of statements! Log on, type in your zip code... get out your GPS and start hunting...!!!

 

Nah, none of you looked like Geeks! :huh: No really you didn't. :P

I'll need 73 dash-and-grab caches all near each other to do it today. Maybe I should go to Nashville. <_<

saw the clips, it was great. i heard the word "bury" in there... but beyond that, it did a good job explaining geocaching to the muggles of the world.

 

so... who's up for an sixteen hour (round trip) geocaching roadtrip? :ph34r:

Posted
Man bag? It's a purse...

 

Next you will be calling those pink thongs you wear boxers!  :P

It's a man string!

I'd wear a man string, except I dont generally wear anything underneath my kilt, errr... brownie outfit... er kilt.

Posted (edited)

OK, it's finally up. Here ya go.

 

edit: the video is up, not whatever is under GWho's kilt skirt thingy.

 

edit edit: Not that I would know... because I wouldn't... know...

Nice piece. Hey, are we allowed to choke the person who said caches are buried?

Just to defend Shamu a bit. She's a very nice person and has been caching for a while. I'm sure she was just nervous talking to the camera. I should have made a list of words and phrases for them to watchout for when editing the piece.

 

And no, you can't strangle me.

Very nice piece, I especially like that they left me out :blink: I was getting nervous, I saw the camera pointed at me a couple times. I do wish they'd have included a blurb about travel bugs, and of course, some footage of Cindy, though.
