Geocache : "Duck Tape"

Another cache that is good enough to mention here is Duck Tape, by KELR Clan. It's a well done drive-by cache, very cute. Here are some pictures, it's just a pill bottle Duct Taped to a fence post and a rubber ducky is taped on there with it.

Geocache : "Matchstick Men"

I have a couple of pictures that Chris ( DT6 ) took of me while I was placing this cache, I tied an Ammo Can to a rock, and left it in the middle of the river, we had a blast.

My Chalk Outline

After a Geocache event Chris and I were having a little too much fun and decided to stage my death, I don't know if anyone noticed the chalk outline of me in the parking lot, but I thought I'd snap a couple pics to save the memory...

Crappy Cache

Some people complain a lot about caches being crappy, I hear a lot about how caches hidden under the skirt of a light pole are crappy too, but we found the ultimate ( at least in my experience ) in crappy caches, it was so extremely crappy that it was awesome! I loved it! when a cache can make me laugh out load then I think it deserves a mention. I'm talking about 7ofclubs's Crappy Cache.... Here are some pics ....
You can see in that first picture that the "container" was a grocery bag hanging in a tree and he had written on it that it was a geocache...

Inside the bad you found what's pictured here -->

A diaper, eeewwwww..... with a toilet paper roll inside of it, which held the log ( an old piece of magazine paper ) in the 3rd photo.

<--- The "Log"





Anyway, that's about it, it was a fun stop and a memorable cache.

Our 11th State - Colorado

We ( Helen and I ) have been keeping track of which states we've been to together, we just got # 11, Colorado on a recent business trip, we drove and and spent the night in Rifle, then in the morning delivered doors in Aspen and Eagle, then geocached our way back to Utah.

Watching For Wizardry

Our Virtual Cache in Oregon is a fun one, today I received an interesting story as the answer for it, which, bytheway, didn't contain the required answer in it anywhere, but I liked the email and thought I'd save it here.

Hi,

the answer to your cache Watching For Wizardry (GC6F85) is:
According to the legend of the Klamath and Modoc Indians the mystic land of Gaywas was the home of the great god Llao. His throne in the infinite depths of the blue waters was surrounded by giant crawfish, his warriors, who were able to lift great claws out of the water and seize too venturesome enemies on the cliff tops.

War broke out with Skell, the god of the neighboring Klamath marshes. Skell was captured and his heart used for a ball by Llao's monsters. But an eagle, one of Skell's servants, captured it in flight, and a deer, another of Skell's servants, escaped with it; and Skell's body grew again around his living heart. Once more he was powerful and once more he waged war against the God of the Lake.

Then Llao was captured; but he was not so fortunate. Upon the highest cliff his body was torn into fragments and cast into the lake and eaten by his own monsters under the belief that it was Skell's body. But when Llao's head was thrown in, the monsters recognized it and would not eat it.

Llao's head still lies in the lake, and white men call it Wizard Island. And the cliff where Llao was torn to pieces is named Llao Rock.


Hope to receive your ok.

"Blue Steel"

"Zoolander" is one of my favorite movies, It's a GREAT comedy with Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, AND Will Ferrell, any movie with ANY of those guys is going to be very funny, but having all three in it is marvelous. Lately I've found that the many great quotes from that movie have been stuck in my head... "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!."

But it's not just funny, it teaches us some really important life lessons, like "I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is." That one really hit me, I mean, what if he's right?
Or maybe I need to think about how people feel when I say certain things, as Hansel ( O.W. ) put so well here : "I felt like, "This guy's really hurting me." And it hurt."

And Derek really cares about kids too, he went so far as to set up " the Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too" where they teach you that there's more to life than just being really, really, really good looking. Right kids?

There are too many great lines from that movie to list here, but if you like stupid silly humor in a movie, you'll love Zoolander.


Mugatu: SHUT UP! Enough already, Ballstein! Who cares about Derek Zoolander anyway? The man has only one look, for Christ's sake! Blue Steel? Ferrari? Le Tigra? They're the same face! Doesn't anybody notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills! I invented the piano key necktie, I invented it!

How to Do the "Blue Steel" Pose from Zoolander

1. Pose your lower body, this is mainly up to you (popping of the collar is highly suggested).
2. Tilt one of your shoulders towards the camera.
3. Make sure your face is looking directly at the camera.
4. Pucker your lips; do not close them together, make sure there is a little space in the middle.
5. Squint your eyes just a bit, as if there is a strong wind or sand blowing at you.

• Breathe in and hold it to make your chest look bigger.
• Look into the center of the lens, which will make your eyes look stunning in the photograph.
• Do not turn left, as this would result in "Magnum" instead.

• Do not do this around ladies you do not want attracted to you.
• Does not work as well for women.
