Top Ten Reasons Why Apple Sucks More Than George Bush

I read this and had to share.

George W's presidency and Apple's trendy comeback will probably go down in history as one of the most baffling co-occurring mental illnesses in millennial American history. If I took a bet on who will leave a deeper hole in the growing emptiness of the American conscience, it would be evil iProduce for the win!

1. iArrogance

Bush thinks he's a genius, but constantly reminds us he's not. Apple thinks they're geniuses, and you're a moron.

2. iNherently Evil

90% of the world hates Bush, and knows why. 90% of the world hates Apple, and they have no clue why.

3. iDesuetude

Bush can only serve eight years and despite his failures, his term will end - we can start anew. Apple's term has lasted 32 years and despite it's failures - it shows no signs of ending. There is no God and Apple killed Nietzsche.

4. iDiscrimination

Bush makes fat people richer. Apple bashes fat people on national television.

5. iCyborg

Bush sounds like a computer when he speaks. Steve Jobs makes love to computers while he speaks.

6. iVanity

Bush wants to conquer parts of the world in the name of defeating terrorism. Apple wants to name the entire world after it's favorite computer... for no reason at all.

7. Boredom iFactor

Bush's addresses can put you to sleep in under five minutes. Steve Jobs' addresses make you want to poke out your eyes, tear off your ears, and hit yourself in the kidneys after 60 grueling minutes.

8. iDeficit

Bush wants us to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to repair Iraq. Apple wants us to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to replace our rectangle iPods with square ones.

9. iUgliness

Bush dresses like a stiff capital pig. Apple representatives dress like members of the Blue Man Group.

10. iWarming

Bush's decisions make lands far far away overheat. Apple makes everything in your house overheat.

Sad thing is, George Bush probably can't even operate a Mac.

GeoCaching… Worldwide Hide and Seek

Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, with a strong sense of community and support for the environment.

So I decided to find my first geocache with the help of my gps enabled phone. I was amazed to find that there were so many geocaches hidden so close to me. Going to the Geocaching.com website you can see in the image below how many there are in just the South Sarasota area.

I found one just a few blocks from my house that was called a “microcache” which means it was about the size of a film canister. I loaded an app on my Android phone called c:geo and set off to find the geocache.

The gps took me to within a few meters of where the geocache was hidden and I began looking for it in some bushes because one of the clues was “green cover”.

After ten minutes of searching I finally noticed a slight change in the green color, only to realize that there was some silk plant parts in the actual bushes.

When I pulled back the silk plants I discovered my first geocache   that had been there since 2007Inside was a log sheet with signatures of others that had been here and found it over the years

So I signed and dated it and then returned it back to where it was for the next treasure hunter to find.

The second geocache I took my 2 daughters with me to let them look for treasure. We parked near a trail in Oscar Scherer Park and walked down a dirt trail for about 1000ft watching the gps the whole way.

This one was off the trail about 20ft  and in an ammo canister. 

It was filled with a log book and a bunch of treasures left by other geocachers  We signed the log book and collected a treasure (Hailey picked up a gold coin and Heather picked up an Alvin) to drop off at the next spot.

Along the way we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and the fact that we weren’t sitting inside watching cartoons surfing the Internet.

Geocaching is a great thing to do with your family because it will allow you to be adventurous and find new areas that you may have never been to. They come in all different sizes and usually contain items that people have left there for the next person to find. They even have trackable items that when some one finds they take it to the next place and it gets logged online so you can watch as your item travels from treasure seeker to treasure seeker all over the world. 

Go to Geocaching.com to get started playing this worldwide game that actually gets you off your lazy butt and experience what the world has to offer.
