Geocaching is like sex because...

· $100 can buy what you need, but may leave you feeling a bit short, but $500 comes with all sorts of special features

· After you find it you may realize it was more effort than it was actually worth

· As soon as you do it, you want to rush back to the Internet so you can tell all your geeky friends about it

· Being interrupted in the middle of your fun is a real bummer

· Both are dependent on being able to pick up signals

· Both can be virtual

· Boxes come in all shapes and sizes

· Doing the multi-legged ones is more complicated

· Even though she's not really into it, your girlfriend always gets upset when you do it with other people

· Every once in a while you end up in a wet spot

· Getting dirty is not only expected, it's almost mandatory

· If you do it right, you wind up breathless

· If you do it too many times in one day, you can't always remember what you did to who, when, and where

· If you do it too much, you'll be sore and have trouble walking in the morning

· If you find the shrubbery impenetrable, you can always go around and come in from the rear.

· If you press the right buttons you find what you want.

· If you take a long lunch-break to do it, your co-workers may notice your disheveled hair and clothes

· It can make it more exciting when you hear strange sounds in the dark

· It is wonderful to be first

· It takes batteries to make some of your toys work

· Its common for newbies to be unsuccessful because they use the wrong datum

· Its easier if you know how to work the equipment

· It's better to do it with a partner but you can go solo when nobody is around

· It can even be done with multiple partners

· It's considerably less fun when you do it by yourself

· It's illegal to do it in some public areas

· Its more fun outdoors

· Just because you spend all your time looking for it does not mean you are actually going to find it

· Most people learn about it from a friend or figure it out themselves

· Most people look for the easy ones first

· Newbies are also likely to measure in seconds instead of minutes

· No matter how good you are that geo spot can be elusive

· No matter how many times you've done it, you look forward to the next time

· Nooners are fun

· Once your done, your ready for the next challenge

· Once you're married, you don't get to do it as often

· Size matters... the larger ones are easier to get a hold of, while the micros can be very hard to find

· Some people brag about how many times they were successful at it

· Some people use their Palms

· Sometimes you have trouble finding it when you really want it

· The deeper in the bush you go, the harder it gets to find the spot, conversely, the thinner the bush, the easier the find

· The dog never quite understands what's going on, but watches anyway

· The hardest ones are always the most satisfying

· The more you do it, the more you want to do it

· The size of your unit doesn't matter, it's how you use it

· The tighter the seal the better

· There is nothing like the sight of a nice can!

· They both have varied terrain

· Used condoms are found at both activities

· When you can't actually do it, you spend all your time reading about it and looking at pictures

· When you finally convince someone to do it for the first time, they suddenly want to do it with EVERYONE

· You always lie about it afterwards

· You are all hot and sweaty and sometimes you're ready for a nap afterwards

· You can do it at night

· You can do it with partners of either sex

· You complain when you aren't getting enough

· You dont mind the sticks and leaves in your hair

· You get to try out new positions

· You have a curious fascination with who was there before you were

· You only have one thing on your mind

· You think about calling in sick to work to spend the day doing it

· You will gladly walk miles if there's even a remote possibility that you'll do it, even in the rain

· Your partner complains about your obsession with it

· You're always taking something out and putting something back in
