First, it's IN to be a Geocacher. Then, you'll see people 
wearing Geocaching shirts and carrying GPS units who never 
set foot in a park. 

Then, there will be rap songs on MTV about Geocaching, and 
a reality show where they put ten Geocachers in the middle 
of the rainforest to compete for a million dollar cache 
with nothing but a GPS and a handful of crackers. 

After that, the premiere of "The Geocacher", where a 
single Geocacher chooses a mate from a group of 20, based 
on their GPS skills..."2cool4u, will you accept this 
rose?"....

Things really get crazy - there are Geocaching 
bobbleheads, Geocaching Barbie, a "Geocaching for Dummies" 
book, a new program "CSI:Geocaching", and Geocaching GI 
Joe with Kung-Fu grip. 

After a while, Geocaching is replaced with the next craze, 
and we are pushed aside like the pet rock or Boy George. 

<sigh>
