GPSr RIP, Contests, 666, and WTF?

Lowrance IFinder Hunt H2O GPS receiver. Missing early August 2009, presumed gone.
I probably found 600 caches with this. I guess I left it somewhere. Been using my Garmin Nuvi 5000. It works pretty well but it is not the same besides for going into the woods I need something waterproof. They don’t make these anymore and it looks like I’m going to get a replacement pretty reasonably on ebay.

Speaking of replacement this very nice sweet lady, fellow blogger Baloney, (so named because she is full of it) is both in a contest and is running a contest. She and I both need your help.

You can help her by going to Irritated Tulsan’s “Tulsan of the Month” contest and vote for Baloney. If she wins then she and my friend 666BOI will face off for the Tulsan of the Year. Baloney is very sweet but don’t pay attention to the lies she tells about me or 666BOI.

You can help me by going to a contest that Baloney is running on her blog. Its a “poop hat” award and vote for my buddy 666BOI. He really really wants that Poop Hat Award.

Speaking of 666. I drove by my favorite liquor store the other day and I saw this car parked out front.

666FMY

So there is another Satan in town? Is this town big enough for two Satan’s. Is the future of mankind going to be decided here in Tulsa, Oklahoma? Are 666BOI and 666FMY teaming up or fighting it out? He doesn’t tell me these things.

Been wondering WTF? It means “What the Flip?” Sweetie has borrowed a Flip Video Cam from a teacher at SuperPizzaBoy’s school for use in a project. I saw it and grabbed it. Sorry everybody, its mine now, at least until Sweetie tells me the third time to give it back. These little gadgets are low tech, low fi, low D but fun to use.

You press a button to shoot video, it has 60 minutes recording time, it uploads itself to YouTube. Its great. The lower tech models cost about $150 new. You can get them for about $70 used on ebay. I’m tracking the bidding patterns to see what’s what and then I may be getting one for myself.

I tried it out on my favorite subject. SuperPizzaBoy, for once he was stumped for something to say but he recovered.

I tell you thing. That Boy puts up with a lot. So does his Mother.

    The poop hat gave me an idea…living in the sticks maybe I could get rich selling ‘cow patty’ hats. And that’s no bull!

    Hey Sunny! Can I buy a cow patty hat? I have a friend who needs one…
    I’m a little scared that Satan’s army is growing. There is a 666FMY? The way I read that – it’s the devil family. Eek. Something stinks in suburbia.

    On a hiking trip when someone’s birthday came up, my kids once made a cow pie cake, complete with candle. Not surprisingly, no one volunteered to take the first piece.
    We lost several GPS’s on the trail. Now we always attach them to saddle or backpack. That makes it harder to leave them behind.
