So, Now When Do We Get The Handshake

[+CompuCash]

Now that the secret greeting has been fully explained -

 

"Geocachers are we! Runy ....."

 

when is someone going to explain how the geocacher's handshake works?

You can always tell an Etrex user. They grab your hand, press with the middle finger and tickle with the thumb.

You can always tell an eTrex user: We stop about 25 feet away and just starting shaking anything nearby until we find the right hand.

It's not quite a handshake. It goes like this. First you take your right hand and make a fist. Then release your index finger and thumb (kind of like imitating a gun with your hand). You then raise the right hand and put it to your chin with your index finger pointing to the left and your thumb pointing upwards. Then, with your left hand you take a squid, or an octopus and stuff it in your mouth.

Edited to add: I no longer so that photo, was there really a photo or is my imagination getting that good.

OK - thanks BranSnat - I'll try one - (this could also be used for the ''greeting")

 

With GPS in left hand laying flat and pointing at the other person but close to the owner's body (arm not extended) -

 

With right hand point at GPS - waiting for acceptance (or like expression)

 

then with-

right hand open and flat - elbow at side raise hand pointing up - palm toward

extend left hand toward 'guest' -

 

guest does same - gps's do not touch but occupy the same general 'Y' coord.

 

(sort of like a handshake but not touching)

 

weird - but what do you expect from the weird topic I started?

Is that octupus still alive????

We could just walk up to each other and say "The Cow Moos At Midnight" and put our right hand on our head, and the other person would say "The Cat Sours The Basil" and puts there left hand on there head and then they both scream MEEOOW.

I dont know why i thought of it.
