YES that cacher is CHEATING!!! If he didn't sign the log himself, he should be BANNED from the hobby forever. We can't have this BLATANT NUMBERS GAME taking place! :D:laughing::(:(

 

:unsure::(

 

blah blah blah....

 

Congrats Snoogans, your life has just changed forever. Cute little guy!! I love the camo bottle.

 

Just watch out - new cachers like that tend to frequently go after "night caches" every 3 hours... makes for a rough couple of months sometimes. :D

Thanks for the congrats and the kind words everyone. :D

 

When I first read the post i thought we where opening up a can of worms! :D

 

That was the plan. :D (Prediction: if this gets to page 2, someone who never looked at the OP will post a rant. :D )

 

I had actually planned on getting one of the virtuals near the hospital as his first cache. We could have done the Houston Children's Museum virt looking out the window of the hospital, when he was 1 hour old, but another thoughtful cacher had placed a cache in his honor and that was so much more fun as his first cache. :D

 

I don't plan on logging any more caches for him (except virts) until he can actually help in finding them, but I will log events for him that he attends with me though. (once :D )

 

I hope he grows up into a real little cacher. His momma is mostly muggle, so his cachin' genes may be a bit watered down. :D:D

Sorry... but....

 

I cannot get into this whole cutesy thing about babies and caches and logging finds.

 

Gag me.

 

I am allergic to kids, I am allergic to having kids, I am doubly allergic to even looking at pictures of kids, and I find babies to be totally gross and scary. Gag me. Like, totally bizarre and scary. Thank God I was never a baby nor a kid. Thank heavens for small favors! So, please make this entire thread and all those groady pictures of little slimy yucky icky babies go away. Gag me.

 

Make it all go away.

 

 

Now.

 

 

 

Thank you.

 

 

 

 

:rolleyes:

 

Postscript: BTW, much as I dislike babies and kids, I must admit, as other posters have note, that at least you are raising him right by giving him a Magellan GPSr!

The more that these things happen and are ignored, the more chance that this game will appear to be a joke.

 

Why do you suppose that rules or guidelines exist? Suppose there were no rules in chess....baseball....hotdog eating contests? Cheaters are a drag on any activity. To ignore them quite simply breeds more cheaters and cheapens the activity, no matter what it might be.

Wait if he is the child of a cacher and a muggle, does that make him a Mudblood?

 

**Continuing the Potterification of geocaching.

 

Congrats Snoogans and Co.! Hope to see ya in Houston January 15th at the Birthday event.

 

According to The Snoogstress, who happens to be a HUGE Potter fan, he'd be a Halfblood.

 

BTW- She finds the Potter references in geocaching to be a tad bit annoying. :grin: I use them a lot just to annoy her. Is that wrong? :rolleyes::D:D:o

Ah Halfblood of course. Is it wrong, normally I'd say no annoying your significant other is quite amusing but considering what she just went through I'd tread lightly. :anibad:

Now hold on a second here!

 

~Assumes a Hermioneish tone~

 

Geocaching Didn't exist until until the year 2000. By default, anyone born before that date is the offspring of two muggles. Therefore, any cacher over the age of 7 is a mudblood. The Snoogstress is correct in that a mating of a mudblood and a muggle would be halfblood. Only those 7 and younger can be half blood. Pure bloods won't be around for awhile yet... Reverse genetics!

 

Of course, this all doesn't matter in the slightest! He's off to a great start and should make an excellent cacher!

 

Congratulations! B)

Whoah there.

 

You are of course technically correct. But you must consider that the geocaching that burns in our veins was in fact there before we had an activity to match it up with. This brings up that there are some madwands (whoop's wrong series) who's geocaching midachlorians run strong (whoop's another series...) but who are yet unwise in the ways of the Jedi Cacher to day. People born to cache but don't know their own ignorance.

True. You make many strong points. Though I must admit, I like this part best-

So what- now it's expected that one doesn't even have to get out of the vehicle to log a find? Where will it end? Next thing you know people will have them delivered to their doorsteps for logging. How about instead of breakfast in bed we have caching in bed? The nerve of some people. This is a serious topic- why can't anyone see that? Sure, you all are joking about it now but wait til the next generation is older- can you imagine how this type of activity will affect them. As far as I'm concerned you wouldn't even be able to call it geocaching anymore. Are you still reading this? I can't believe that you actually are. Now I'm just typing stuff to fill in for a bit. You can stop reading now and jump to the end if you want- I can guarantee there's not going to be anything interesting said here. And if you think this is interesting perhaps you should consider getting some professional help. Really. I mean that in a most respectful way. But come on- you're reading mindless drivel at this point. Hmmm...lets see how long I can make you read this tripe. Congrats to the whole Snoogans clan. I guess clan is the proper term. I don't know what else to call a group of more than one Snoogans type entity. Herd? Flock? Murder? That might make an interesting topic. I'm sure Snoogans will start one on it- he's good at things like that. Hah! You're still reading this aren't you? You really do need that professional help I mentioned earlier. Most (sane) people by now would just be thinking 'blah, blah, blah'- and they'd be right. But not you- you just keep reading right along, don't you? I'm sure there's got to be some kind of medication that will help- if not you could always go in for a lobotomy. Or perhaps you already have and that's why you can't stop reading. I'm sure you have better things to do, like counting the hairs on your cat for instance. Or perhaps seeing how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop. Speaking of those- what's your favorite flavor? Mine is raspberry, I think. Maybe it's grape- I can't remember. Darn it- now I want one and I don't have any in the house. You still there? does your family know this is what you do? Read the ramblings of complete strangers on weird websites in the middle of the night? The least you could do for them is be normal and just surf for free porn. You're just not going to leave until you've read everything here, are you? I told you nothing important was going to be said. It hasn't even been witty has it? Even with your little problem I bet you're wishing now that you would have stopped when I said to. But no, you had to keep going- didn't you? Well, this is 5 minutes of your life that you'll never get back. Thanks for devoting them to me and my ramblings. They didn't do me much good tho, and it took me much longer than that to write this. We both really need to get a life, don't we? Time to finish this up. Hope you get your condition looked at real soon. I mean it's one thing if you doing a lamp post and the driver stays in the car while somebody else hops out to make a quick grab- that's fine for drive ups and all. It's not like anyone took a cache from, oh, let's say Chicago to an event in, oh, let's say Michigan and let others log it there- and the person doing it isn't even the cache owner or even from anywhere near the caches original area. Sheesh.
