Geocaching, my new obsessi...
While the jury is still out on the “fun factor” involved with trudging through thorns and thick mesquite, I have this new obsession known as geocaching. Most readers of my blog are familiar with geocaching. For the rest of you, here’s a description from geocaching.com: Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS...

Click to biggie size I love Chinese to English translations on products! I find them so amusing. A friend of mine gave me a couple of cable testers today, and I had to share the instruction sheet with you. What’s your favorite line? My favorite is “do not change it on your mind.” What? Huh?
