    Xsalent idea!
    I can’t spell either, worst yet I can’t manage to use the right word in a sentence (opps, I did it again, just typed “work” instead of “word”).

    For me, rather than running each word through a dictionary, like it seems your doing. I just type my whole posting, then before hitting [Submit] I TRY to remember to cut/paste it into MS-Word and let it yell at me. Just a suggestion, to make it more of a one step process.

    ** Lost and Found Update **

    I still have a bike helmet (seems like a nice one), and sunglasses (no comment)!!!!

    I’ve been contacted by the owner of the water bottle w/ carabiner (good thing I found it in my back seat last night).

    in reply to: Temp Caches and the Camp-out #1744290

    It’s funny (or maybe just human nature), how people have different view points on stuff like this, yet I can’t say one view point is “more right” than another.

    This past weekend while talking to various cachers … I found that some people would rather post temp finds on a SPECIAL “regular” cache page just for the purpose, so that their “scoreboard” for EVENTS reflects how many events they went to rather than finds at events (Make Sense) … but other people want to post temp finds on the “event” cache page, so that their “scoreboard” reflects on many Temp Finds they have in total on EVENTS and Regular Finds they have in total on TRADITIONAL, to sub-classify the “flavor” of their finds (Makes Sense Too) … it just seems like it all depends on what you want to reflect on your “scoreboard”.

    Sorry, I don’t believe so.
    You only have a couple options you can change (upper-right are of this page), but not to flip the order.
    I suspect it’s 6 of 1 and 12*.5 of another, if they were flipped then you’d have to scroll to the bottom when you don’t know what the original subject was.

    just my random thought for the day.


    Good Point. It might be stretching it to say that non-paying cachers might trash trails more than paying. But at the very least it would keep Non-Account Holders from snooping around … ie. someone with a GPSr just messing around and not really caring. I sometimes wish there was an “in between” check box .. to block Non-Account Holders from seeing caches, if one so desired. In a nature sensitive or container sensitive situation, it would be nice to keep out people that have not bothered to register themselves.

    Once you setup an account, there’s an [Equipment] link on the left, it shows what PDAs are compatiable. If it loads ok, I think it will work fine … while it makes use of color, it doesn’t seem to throw anything at you that would not work in a B/W world.

    not my kids (nor my wife) … I like to keep them all thinking we never fight

    in reply to: Members Only #1749549

    I agree with MB ….

    (1) We should support the site that keeps us going, by funding it.

    (2) I don’t like “locking down” a cache to Premium, I hide them to generate finds, not to keep them a secret.

    Funny Side Note: For a period of time I made “Port Puzzle” premium, because I assumed it was being muggled everytime I switched the final hide location. I figured that the “neighbors” where watching the changes and always finding it. But since then I’ve figured out that the muggler is likely an animal … I think I’ve finally got out of his/her territory (since it’s been ok now since January).

    I can’t decide what I am … about 3 or 4 would work. But some of those pictures give me the creeps, especially the acne kid.

    in reply to: “Speedy” geocache logging website? #1740497

    thanks RP!

    the 2nd one was the one I remembered.
    but that 1st one is cool … I like the speed and search methods … it almost feels a bit like using Plucker on a Palm (regarding the results on screen).

    your ‘da best!

    in reply to: Meaningless Question of the Day 4/28/2005 #1749262

    I’ll go along with that Bec.
    I loooooooove swiss cheese … if we are somewhere and I see something with swiss, that’s what I get.

    Maybe next time I’m at an event … I will bring cocoa with swiss cheese swizzle sticks!

    When? … It’s going to take me a long time to de-poopout from this one. I’m thinking fall would be a nice time of year, but not this fall, so how about fall 2006? I’ve already started on the “scheme” of it all, but need some time to crash and burn before I put my thinking cap on again. Plus Geri wants her husband back to normal for sometime to come … and I’d like that too (not a husband, I mean me). Now, that doesn’t mean I might not suddendly get the urge for a “tiny” event maybe this winter or so, just to keep my mind from rusting.
