"Some geocachers are not in it

It may not be worth $0.02 but it is MHO."
Well .. if they aren't .. then they certainly SHOULD be heh-heh. It's
always all about ME ;+)
Rejoice?
As for .. "H" .. you're kidding right???? LOL
Seriously .. don't hold back next time. Now , Mr. Cow .. I have to go
check YOUR logs to see what you've written about MY
caches. Really, what you're suggesting is more along the lines of anarchy
vs. fascism.

I write logs to please myself not the cache owner. There is no word count
requirement. If TFTC is all that comes to mind then so be it. When I am
inspired i write so much more. Cache owners should rejoice to know that
their
cache is alive and well and not project their expectations beyond what is
contained in their cach write-up. If you want a custom log that is more than
a
paragraph then make it a requirement, otherwise, get off your high horse and
realize that we all cache for different reasons. Some geocachers are not in
it
for your pleasure but for theirs.
It may not be worth $0.02 but it is MHO.

Of course now we're all checking out your finds to see who you've offended
. LOL.
I LOVE a well-written log. Funny is good. VERY good. Compliments are
lovely. Bizarre is even better. hmmmmmmmmmm I LOVE getting emails from
cache owners saying. "Thanks for the good log." I distinctly remember
caches where I couldn't come up with something "good" to write. Only once
have I been snarky and may have said something like, well, at least the ink
pen wasn't covered in mold. Once I resorted to talking about the industrial
strength hand dryer in the restroom of the Piggly Wiggly. THAT was much more
impressive than the light pole.
When we're out and about I pick caches based on how creative the cache page
is and how fun the logs are. Too many TFTC logs in a row and we'll skip it
if we're pressed for time. I've also been known to leave notes on caches we
didn't have time to look for just because the cache page was well written
and informative.
Personally, I really like the "I left my lawnmower blades and took a dead
skunk's toenail" type logs. Those are the best.
"Log" is one of those words that if you hear/see/read it enough it starts to
sound odd...
