Welcome to my World of Wonderment

Our planet is a neat place, full of weird and unusual people doing weird and unusual things. One oddball thing I like to do is geocache. What other activity is there that makes people travel hundreds of miles to climb a mountain, wade a river, and fight a Bigfoot, just to be the first person to sign a piece of paper rolled up in a 35mm film canister stuffed in the knot hole of a tree? I can't think of any other sport that has such a great mix of technology and the wonderful outdoors. A lot of geocaches are placed in a beautiful setting, or hidden in a challenging or unique way, or in a historical setting. Geocaching allows the finder to share in some of the hiders favorite places, and along the way you get to meet some interesting characters, and occasionally learn something new. While this blog is primarily a geocaching blog, I also use this place to post the occasional funny video or weird news story, or as a platform to rant or rave about something I really have to share. But for the most part this website is about you, the weirdo walking around in circles, talking into your GPS unit like it's a phone, pretending your taking pictures of a phone booth to find find the tiniest micro-cache, or circling your car around and around a light pole in a parking lot trying to retrieve a cache without even getting out of your car.

Anheuser-Busch CEO Runs From InBev Thugs

I have found secret footage of August Busch IV being run down by InBev goons. Evidently Busch was just getting out of the shower (note the underwear and the shower shoes) when InBev's henchmen broke into Busch's home, threatening to cause him bodily harm unless he convinced the Anheuser-Busch shareholders to sell. Busch barely escaped his home, and grabbed the first conveyance he could find, his 1936 commerative Shlitz case scooter, given to him by his great grandfather on his 5th birthday. As you can see the goons got a big kick out Busch's feeble atempt at fleeing, and judging from todays decision to sell, they must have persuaded him soon after the filming of these clip.
