    Judas Priest

    1. (euphemism) A less vulgar term in place of the idiom Jesus Christ! commonly used in anger or surprise.

    Still doesn’t make sense…..Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus by giving him up to the Romans and was seen as a traitor. Given the subject matter of your post, I would deduce that this is your reference, rather than calling yourself Jesus himself.

    Way OT, but I’ve been bugged by this.

    As I cache throughout Wisconsin (and IL, MN, etc), meeting different addicts from all over, I have been hearing more and more about cache saturation. And specifically, puzzle caches.

    But another, more important point is how these caches are tying up otherwise good locations for other, and future, caches.

    Yes, each cacher has a right to place a cache. But when an area becomes saturated with puzzles, it can have a negative effect.

    The primary purpose of geocaching for to hide caches for people to go out and find. When some (or too many) caches are barricaded behind complicated hoops and barrels that frustrate the majority of cachers, it defeats that intent.

    Caches are meant to be found.

    Puzzle saturation can affect the future of caching. Consider this: How are new cachers to begin to figure out where to place a new cache, when there are so many hidden ‘bombs’ out there?

    Is it time to place some restrictions? Or should individuals begin to restrain themselves? Would they?

    Bump….
    Seems to be lots of interest in placing puzzles lately…
