3:39

go out and do a

3:41

road trip. So we got

3:43

the last four counties that

3:45

we needed in Nevada last

3:47

night in a snowstorm blizzard.

3:49

And then we We

3:51

Salt Lake City

3:57

and got

3:59

the and Utah the

4:01

today. Odyssey, And

4:38

cash, if we can make it

4:40

before the library if we

4:42

can make it before the library

4:44

4:46

have to stay the night. we'll swing

4:48

we'll swing by the brand new

4:51

that's in Colorado, so in on

4:53

a stick. on stick. All by places. I'm

4:56

5:00

of the way it is

5:02

this time of year. time of year.

5:05

So there's, you know, snow is out and

5:07

about. We We lived

5:09

for years in Wyoming and in

5:11

the mountains in Colorado. in nothing

5:13

new for us. it's nothing new you

5:15

know, you just know, you just

5:18

the weather and be and be all the

5:20

stuff that you gotta have. the stuff

5:22

that you off we go. So.

5:24

and off we go. So, I'm in a part

5:26

of the world where where even in

5:28

the forecast. Everybody goes to the

5:30

grocery store and empties the shelves. and

5:33

empties get the bread and milk,

5:35

buddy. get Gotta get the bread and milk.

5:37

The beer and the pizza and the and milk.

5:39

The beer and the pizza and the

5:41

5:43

but y'all are, Texas is forecasted to get

5:45

some crazy snow in the next

5:47

48 hours. 48 hours. So. Yeah, and if

5:49

it does, I ain't going to to

5:52

work. You know, know, they

5:54

were talking about like eight

5:56

inches in the Dallas -Fort

5:58

Worth Fort Worth Metroplex. Like. that's that's

6:00

significant snow. That's why I'm telling

6:02

you, Teresa, better put that bob

6:04

wire fence back up. All

6:11

right, so Gary lives up there. That snow

6:13

comes down here. He can come back and

6:15

come down here and pick it up and

6:17

take it home with him. Well,

6:20

I don't know if his wife's going

6:22

to let him out of the house to

6:24

come drive and pick it up. You

6:26

know, what we need to do is call

6:28

pizza ninja and tell him, hey, look,

6:30

your weather is down here in my backyard.

6:34

Doing shenanigans. You need to come get

6:36

it, take it back home. Drunk a

6:38

lot of snow out of my yard. Yeah,

6:42

you see that because, you

6:44

know, you're talking my language

6:46

like he's all about staying

6:48

home when it snows. But

6:50

I saw pictures of his

6:53

of the snow they get

6:55

like his car was buried

6:57

under feet of snow. They

6:59

were having to dig the

7:02

car out and I was

7:04

like, yeah, oh, you know,

7:06

so. All

7:09

right, well, let's

7:12

see. Let's

7:14

see. We somehow we got a

7:16

news bumper somewhere. Let's do a

7:18

news bumper because Tom's got news.

7:28

Right. I just I just put a

7:30

note and then remind everybody about Cashfest

7:32

Hawaii because that's coming up, you know. That's

7:35

right. Cashfest Hawaii is

7:37

right around the corner. So

7:39

it'll be here before

7:42

you know it. So and

7:44

it'll be warmer there

7:46

than it is here. That's

7:48

right. It will be

7:50

there in the great there

7:52

in the great Honolulu

7:54

Hawaii. I don't think the

7:56

Cash Odyssey Hawaii Cash

7:58

has published just yet. but

8:01

but if you are planning on going

8:03

to Cache Fest in

8:05

Hawaii. It is just a little puddle

8:07

jump over to the big island. to

8:10

get the cash odyssey.

8:14

Cache. It's to be on the

8:16

map. Can't you just swim? You

8:19

know, it's,

8:21

what, like 40

8:23

miles from island to island?

8:26

Oh, little fun. You know? I

8:28

mean, I'm not saying you

8:30

can't swim in. I'm just saying

8:32

there lot of sharks between. where

8:35

you start to swim and where you

8:37

end swimming if you are going

8:39

swim that. Maybe a volcano

8:41

come and make a land bridge. Yeah,

8:44

right. You know,

8:46

get you a couple of five gallon gas

8:48

cans and strap them to a wave runner,

8:50

a jet ski and you're good to go. Yeah.

8:53

you know. So yeah, that's

8:55

mega of it is right around

8:58

the corner. And so if

9:00

you have not. let

9:04

Let me see, somehow we can

9:06

do this. I want to

9:08

copy and put the GC code

9:10

in the chat room for

9:12

everybody. If you have not logged

9:16

on the cusp of maybe I

9:18

can make it, this is

9:20

the place where you put your

9:22

9:24

So put that out there. I

9:26

know a lot of cashers

9:28

who have waited for something like

9:30

this so that they have

9:32

a I don't want to

9:34

say good reason to go to

9:36

Hawaii. There's never not a

9:38

good reason to go to Hawaii.

9:40

I'll tell you that I

9:42

lived 43 years on this planet

9:44

without ever going to Hawaii.

9:46

My wife took me, we went

14:22

can be a things can be a little

14:24

frustrating. Thank

14:26

you. Bye. Bye. I will will

14:28

definitely say the first one on my list,

14:30

the original version of the first the on

14:32

my list on my list was and still

14:34

is to a lot of people,

14:37

so. So so the first So the first

14:39

thing on my list is to do

14:41

a variation of one of my word word thing

14:43

where I have a word search on there that has

14:45

I have a nothing to there that

14:47

has absolutely nothing to do

14:50

with... to do with the puzzle. the puzzle.

14:52

But yet it has has everything to

14:54

do with solving the puzzle. puzzle. That's

14:56

right. The actual just to give you something to

14:58

do while you figure out what you

15:00

really need to do. do while you

15:03

Yeah, because the word search is

15:05

really need to do. Yeah, because the

15:07

word search is is it's

15:09

It's it's It's busy

15:11

work. side work. It's it's busy

15:14

work. and if the one I've got

15:16

out is the puzzle. the puzzle

15:18

here. I put three words three words

15:20

for you to find in it. I didn't

15:22

give you the words it just gave you

15:24

the it just gave you made a little so

15:27

that made a to do. little And

15:29

then if you find those three

15:31

words. if you find That should be

15:33

it, clue right there, three words. a clue right

15:35

there. Three words? three words?

15:37

You put it there and it takes you

15:39

to the parking coordinates, which I tell you. which

15:42

ain't there. it ain't there. Yeah.

15:44

that kind of ticks a few

15:47

people off. people off. Big, right. But

15:50

I I can tell you that

15:52

watching people at cash fest in

15:54

in to solve this solve this Yeah, I

15:56

took you know, we've gone you know, we've gone

15:58

over that puzzle the show so people

16:00

thought, thought oh I know how to do

16:03

this. And and yeah do a little do

16:05

a variation to it. variation

16:07

to it and yeah our buddy, Mr.

16:10

didn't get it figured out

16:12

and he was the

16:14

answer. figured out the answer, the answer

16:16

he so. the was that was fun

16:18

so do. do I'll try

16:20

some variation on that. on that

16:22

I don't don't know exactly what

16:24

I've a couple couple but

16:27

but You

16:30

you know, just the I I like

16:32

it because well, I mean,

16:34

the word mean, the just makes you

16:36

think, think, layout of it makes you

16:38

think, oh, well, this is the

16:40

word search. think, oh, but all I've

16:42

done is the word search. But all I've

16:44

normal is just spaced it out

16:46

a bit. like, possibly

16:48

a normal cipher

16:50

and just spaced it.

16:53

a bit. All in the Next

16:56

on my list it. This

16:59

should come to no shock. I'm

17:01

gonna put out one, ask

17:03

a as a load of

17:05

questions. questions. I mean, how many did

17:08

I figure many was it was

17:10

going to be used four

17:12

times? like 45 or something? I

17:14

or something? I don't know. set.

17:16

And you least kind of

17:19

you can kind of figure out

17:21

real quick where this goes. So each

17:23

question is going to a question,

17:25

it's a statement. And you have

17:27

to define. decide if it's

17:29

true or false. true or false. And

17:32

And what can you do with true and false? with true

17:34

and false? binary. binary.

17:37

So you're just going

17:40

to answer questions or

17:42

figure out what's true, what's

17:44

false, do some binary. out what's true,

17:46

what's I'm not going

17:48

to tell them it's

17:51

binary. I'm not course not.

17:53

course not. it's binary. Of course not.

17:55

Of course not. Let

17:58

us see if they it out. it out I

18:01

thought, hey, from going to thought.

18:03

why don't I put to Hawaii, why don't

18:06

I put a puzzle there? to gonna see if I

18:08

can put some kind of puzzle there. of

18:10

puzzle there. Okay. I know what I'm

18:12

going to put yet. to put yet.

18:14

I don't know. You know,

18:16

that probably wouldn't be

18:18

know, that probably wouldn't be too

18:21

hard, got long as you've got

18:23

somebody local there that can

18:25

do cash maintenance for you. for you.

18:27

And I'll tell you that I

18:29

have reached out to to. cashers and

18:31

have like, a cash in Mexico. in

18:33

Mexico, a vacation in

18:35

Mexico that, you

18:38

know, by all. all, you know, know,

18:40

rules tells you that you can't

18:42

have, have, I've got one and

18:44

I've got got a, it's the the

18:46

bonus cash to an adventure lab

18:48

that I have. I've got

18:50

a local guy who takes care

18:52

of it. care of it. As as as

18:54

you a plan of how it's

18:57

gonna get you taking care

18:59

of, it's be good to go. and

19:01

take and the reviewer for Hawaii

19:03

is Greatland Yeah, and the who

19:05

is is a

19:07

Texas reviewer, who is a

19:10

Texas County challenge

19:12

finisher. So, you know, know, probably couldn't

19:14

couldn't be too hard

19:16

to swing it, you

19:18

know, for know, for a lustrous

19:20

county guy like you,

19:22

you know. you know, Yeah,

19:24

it just just makes me think.

19:26

All these people all these childhood is

19:28

too hard. So there's a guy

19:31

County Child is done it. So and

19:33

a reviewer in Alaska has done it too. that's

19:36

done it and a reviewer

19:38

in is, has done

19:40

it too. Yeah, yeah, so

19:42

Greatland reviewer who is

19:45

Ladybug Kids. He is, he's

19:48

works for a and

19:51

works for a oil company. in

19:53

I think Alaska. Yeah, that's the the

19:55

guy that's in Alaska. in Alaska.

19:57

Yeah, yeah. He works for...

20:00

Shell or ExxonMobil or somebody and

20:02

he was making trips from

20:04

Alaska down to Houston for work

20:06

and that's where he met

20:08

some geocaching friends down there and

20:10

so he would come down

20:12

for work and then take 10

20:15

days of vacation and would and

20:18

get a bunch of counties and get back

20:20

to Houston and fly back to Alaska. So.

20:23

So You know, a

20:25

puzzle cache in Hawaii wouldn't be

20:27

too hard, plus most of the You

20:32

know you find a Hawaii

20:34

cashier they get a smiley out

20:36

of the gig, right? yeah

20:38

the cash isn't so it's win

20:41

-win for everybody. you you know.

20:44

I like that. it's be cool. to

20:46

you're gonna have to work on

20:48

that I'll

20:50

make something happen. but

20:52

it won't be this next one

20:55

that's on my list. so the

20:57

next one. this is

20:59

not a Tom idea. There's

21:01

catches like this in the

21:03

Austin area that was

21:06

told about and I

21:08

told a couple ways you could

21:10

do this and I thought of one

21:12

that they didn't tell me. so And

21:16

I'm not gonna tell you what my solution

21:18

is here, but I'm gonna tell you the

21:20

cache is a totally blank page. The only

21:22

thing on it is a certitude. There's

21:25

no hidden stuff in the source

21:27

code. I mean, you know no. None

21:30

of the remarks thing. There's none

21:32

of the There's

21:35

not like a photo in

21:37

the gallery that's hide in the

21:39

gallery, no, no, trackable thing.

21:42

But I was thinking the other

21:44

thing in the source code.

21:46

I I don't remember what

21:48

you call it, but you can make um

21:50

cells that don't show up or text

21:52

it doesn't show up at all not by

21:55

turning it white but it's the thing

21:57

in word you can do and make things

21:59

just totally disappear and

22:01

it but it shows up as little squares

22:03

if you in the source code, right? Won't

22:07

be that It's

22:09

just totally blank page other

22:11

than the title. And

22:14

if I might even make the

22:16

title, just blank if I if

22:18

that's possible. Just put a

22:21

plus one or a period. Oh

22:23

not even that. There's nothing.

22:25

Yeah. It'll let me do it.

22:27

If it'll let you out.

22:29

Okay. because that would

22:31

be a clue. So I'll tell you some

22:33

of the ways they did it in Austin.

22:38

So what's different from one cast page

22:40

to another? If there's nothing, you you

22:42

know, if everything else is blank. and

22:45

all there is is a certitude on

22:47

there. And I'll tell you, it's nothing to

22:49

do with the certitude. but What

22:51

changes from one cash page to another? the

22:54

GC code. That's one

22:56

answer that gave me. So

22:58

yeah so the GC

23:00

code, but also every geocache

23:02

is given up that

23:04

GC code translates to

23:07

a number, which tells

23:09

you which geocache in

23:11

the world it was.

23:13

published in order right minus like

23:15

the first however many that

23:17

went from where they went

23:19

from like west coast to

23:21

east coast and numbered on

23:24

the GCDs, gcb's the gcw's

23:26

right those first whatever it

23:28

was 125 caches that they

23:30

went in and assigned a

23:32

number to it and they

23:34

went west coast to east

23:36

coast and so once all

23:38

of those got done then

23:40

they started doing them in

23:43

numerical order. So

23:45

So in that They

23:49

got a GC code that

23:51

gives you an but it's also

23:53

assigned a you you know,

23:55

a number that says this is the

23:58

you know, whatever if published

24:00

cash. That's how you

24:02

know that the

24:04

Shawnee in Ohio is

24:06

truly Ohio's first

24:09

geocache. or oldest

24:11

geocache as opposed to the

24:13

other one that's. uh,

24:16

published, you

24:18

know, whatever

24:21

they they the year wrong

24:23

when they published it.

24:25

so it looks like the

24:27

oldest geocache, but it

24:29

was really published like 12

24:31

,000 geocaches after the Shawnee

24:33

overlook. So. So all

24:38

All right, people are throwing questions in

24:40

there. Let's see, attributes, they didn't tell

24:42

me that one, but that would be

24:44

good. And there's two things you can

24:46

do with the attributes. It's either the

24:48

name of the attribute or the attribute

24:50

number. right? because those

24:52

have numbers assigned to them as

24:54

well. numbers, so you put one

24:57

attribute in there that's a good

24:59

thing. The URL, they didn't

25:01

give me that, but. That'd

25:03

be good too. I don't know

25:05

the GC number for the one in

25:07

Austin, but but. Oh,

25:13

dad, y 'all. Is

25:15

it by think it's the outlaw put

25:18

out, okay? I think that's it. That's

25:20

who was telling me about it. The

25:22

coordinates are good. He me two ways

25:24

to do that And actually

25:26

there's a couple. because the

25:28

coordinates are normally degrees minutes,

25:30

but you could do. to

25:33

change out the degree minute second, you

25:35

can use UTM. Yeah.

25:39

The thing he did,

25:41

one of them,

25:43

he told me was

25:45

use the three words that

25:47

those coordinates would

25:50

normally have. you

25:53

know because opposed

25:55

to because whatever you put in here

25:57

you're going to dump it and start

25:59

it to just to give you the

26:01

real coordinates. coordinates. Right, yeah. Oh, Hider name,

26:04

the cache is Hider it. Yeah,

26:06

just went through the Hider just

26:08

went through the Well,

26:10

no, we didn't, but there's a number

26:12

of, I'll go it there's a a

26:14

number, I'll go ahead and say,

26:17

there's a number with your hider

26:19

name there's a is. There's a number

26:21

associated with your geocaching name, which tells

26:23

you tells you which order it

26:25

is you registered your name in

26:27

the geocache website system. I'm

26:30

like in that liking

26:32

that number thing. Yeah,

26:34

if I could only, but

26:36

you can't put that up there. you

26:38

can't put that up there.

26:41

the technique with the four

26:43

steps to kind of. That

26:46

would save me a whole trip. would

26:48

I me a whole trip. that

26:50

want that attribute. I gotta go. I'm

26:52

not not gonna get it

26:55

this time this time But

26:57

if I had that that. That

26:59

would be a cool a

27:01

cool number. Yeah. Sometimes they'll unravel like

27:03

a a little onion

27:06

too. It's kind of crazy. Yeah, let's

27:08

see. I that, through then

27:10

fun. And then I have one where I

27:12

just where I just ramble

27:14

on on on and on and

27:16

on every once in a

27:18

while in my ramblings. of throw

27:21

out a bit of here's a number

27:23

number you need. Here's Here's another number

27:25

you need. you need. Right, make

27:27

through. through,

27:30

make them read through

27:32

all the silly

27:34

stuff. Yeah. I don't

27:37

know. Hmm. don't

27:39

know She's, oh, you

27:41

see that what

27:43

about the background

27:46

color? that? What about the background color? The

27:48

cat I'm not changing the color. the

27:51

color. But. Yeah. I

27:54

I guess could. Even if what you

27:56

don't change it, it's white, so. it

27:58

is white so yeah What

28:02

shade of white? Oh

28:05

lord. it

28:07

Ford wide? Is it Chevy

28:09

wide? it? It's,

28:13

yeah. they're, they're,

28:16

you go to the pink

28:18

counter at Sherwin Williams

28:20

and they're like 7 ,000

28:22

shades of white. Why

28:25

can't we just have white? I'm just

28:27

a typical old guy, just give me white.

28:31

Yeah, I don't

28:33

need eggshell or

28:35

whatever. Just white. So,

28:41

all All

28:43

right, well, I guess that's time

28:45

to roll over to things that I

28:48

have. I

28:51

always am. So

28:54

my local geocaching community there

28:57

around my house has started,

28:59

I have one guy who

29:01

listens to the podcast. He

29:03

He doesn't watch it live.

29:06

but he downloads the audio recording

29:08

from Podbean or wherever he gets

29:11

it from and he listens to

29:13

it while he's at work. And

29:16

so I

29:18

sometimes have a hard time doing

29:20

a show like this because then

29:23

he can always refer back to it and

29:26

be like, oh yeah, that. And then he

29:28

kind of has a, He

29:30

doesn't have near as frustrating

29:32

of a time with some

29:34

of my geocaches because... He's

29:37

listened to the show or watched it

29:39

and he knows where to go. to

29:42

get the resource to solve

29:44

the puzzle, right? So him,

29:46

some of these puzzles that

29:48

normally would be pretty frustrating.

29:51

are super easy for him because

29:54

he's like, oh, yeah, they talked

29:56

about this here. he'll go search

29:58

through YouTube. Yeah. Hey,

30:00

and there's nothing wrong with that,

30:02

right? Like, that's a tool in

30:05

your toolbag, you know, because we,

30:07

you know, we talk about these

30:09

shows that we're gonna, puzzles that

30:11

we're gonna put out on the

30:14

show. And so if you listen

30:16

to the show, hey, cool, you

30:18

know, if you don't listen to

30:20

the show, you know. But I

30:23

have yet to publish one of

30:25

these caches. But I'm going to

30:27

make a puzzle cash based off

30:29

of the shirt puzzle that we

30:32

did. The gray shirt that that

30:34

was the puzzle talk, the gray

30:36

shirt that we had had a

30:38

puzzle on the back of it.

30:41

And it was chemistry based. And

30:43

I got one of those. I

30:45

got one of those shirts. Oh,

30:47

well, I had the shirt and

30:50

I had the puzzle too. And

30:52

I had the puzzle too. Yeah.

30:54

Yeah. So I haven't made one

30:56

yet. So that's on the list

30:59

of things, you know, that's kind

31:01

of the, that's kind of the

31:03

puzzle that started everything for us,

31:05

you know, we put it on

31:08

the shirt, you know, we went,

31:10

we went, I went and hid

31:12

cash in real life at the,

31:14

at the coordinates that you got

31:17

when you solved the puzzle cash.

31:19

And that thing set out there

31:21

for what? over a year without

31:23

being found. You know, a year

31:26

without being, it was a fun,

31:28

it was a fun puzzle. The

31:30

one that I based it off

31:32

of that's in Denver, Colorado, in

31:34

the greater Denver area, when I

31:37

reached out to that CO, he

31:39

was like, yeah, absolutely, make one,

31:41

make a shirt, make a puzzle.

31:43

Me and Gary, you know. bought

31:46

him a shirt and mailed it

31:48

to him so that he could

31:50

have a shirt. And it's based

31:52

off of his puzzle. cash

31:55

there in the

31:57

greater Denver area

31:59

that I solved

32:01

when I did.

32:05

when I was there for,

32:07

Jill Woodstock 14er. So. So,

32:11

know so that's the you

32:13

know, I'm gonna put one

32:16

of those out you

32:19

know, I've worn that shirt enough

32:21

to local events that when

32:23

my local community sees it, they

32:25

ought to be, oh, that's

32:28

on the back of his shirt.

32:30

And hopefully that kind of

32:32

gets them to, you

32:35

know, say, oh, I need to go

32:37

watch that show about the shark puzzle. And

32:39

so we'll go back and get some

32:42

of that stuff. And realize how truly simple

32:44

it is. Yeah, it's really

32:46

not a hard puzzle. as

32:49

long as you have the correct resource

32:51

to solve it. Yeah. Right,

32:54

and that's the part of

32:56

it is people try to

32:58

look at it as some

33:00

giant like formula of whatever,

33:02

and it's really not, it's

33:04

just what It's

33:06

a polypeptide stream, but you

33:08

just need to know the

33:10

individual peptide. names. Um

33:13

names, each one of those

33:15

peptides has a letter associated

33:17

with it, and then you

33:20

convert those letters to numbers

33:22

for the alphabet, and lo

33:24

and behold. You know,

33:26

you're done. Um,

33:28

But there you go. So I'm

33:30

gonna do one of those. I'm

33:33

gonna do a library of babble

33:35

cache. I've solved

33:37

several of these. All of the

33:39

library of babble caches that I

33:41

have ever come across have been

33:43

a difficulty five. And

33:46

I don't have a difficulty five

33:48

pub cash published under my name

33:50

so So, You

33:53

know, the library of Babel is become

33:56

a little more common when

33:58

it first came him out,

34:00

it just it blew

34:03

people's minds. but there

34:05

are several library of Babel

34:07

Caches out there. linked one in

34:09

the show notes. So if

34:11

you need to look at one

34:13

and... Uh, to know what

34:15

I'm talking about, the show notes will

34:17

get published. Um, later

34:19

on and you

34:21

squirrel in and and at the

34:23

library of Babel Caches that I

34:25

have. linked in the show notes. Because

34:29

once you figure out how to

34:32

solve it, then you can go backwards

34:34

and create one.

34:36

so you know

34:38

that so

34:42

Library of Babel, Puzzle. The

34:44

other one that I'm

34:46

going to do is one

34:48

that we've talked about

34:50

on the show. is a

34:52

it is a maze

34:54

font that you have that

34:57

Somebody created and they have it hosted

34:59

on their own stand alone. website.

35:03

So this

35:06

one is the cash

35:08

that we, that I base this

35:10

off of is called OPP, Kamiya,

35:14

keep it simple. And actually,

35:16

this is the one that Tom

35:18

and David Vickery reached out

35:20

to me and said, hey Charles

35:22

can you help us solve

35:24

this? and they sent me a link to

35:27

it and it was. Up

35:29

in independence

35:32

Missouri? Missouri

35:36

don't get me the line to

35:38

you we are going up

35:40

there for a cash run, a

35:42

county run, something. It was

35:44

up near independence And

35:46

so this cash owner

35:48

actually had two of them.

35:50

Once I figured out

35:52

where the where the key

35:54

was to solving it,

35:56

it actually became fairly

35:58

easy. But you

36:00

know, yeah. And then I'm

36:03

You know, do a Rick-rolled

36:06

puzzle. Rick-rolled.

36:08

You I'm gonna do a Rick rolled

36:10

puzzle. is, right? I

36:13

you know what Rick rolled is, right? I do

36:15

and I'm interested in what you're going to do with

36:17

that. All right, so

36:19

I found this image

36:21

on this image

36:23

on Reddit or

36:25

somewhere a couple of years

36:27

ago. ago. I saved

36:29

a picture of it.

36:32

and then what I did was

36:34

typed it into Word and I made

36:36

a Word file out of it. and

36:39

I me see if I can... file

36:42

out of share screen

36:44

let me see Let's

36:46

see, I can share screen,

36:48

let's see, share

36:50

window, this. All

36:53

right. Let me see. me

36:55

see. All

36:58

right, this is this

37:01

is third period

37:04

third period physics class. But

37:06

But if you read the

37:08

first word going down

37:10

the page, it's never gonna

37:12

give you up, never

37:14

gonna let you down, never

37:16

gonna run around and

37:18

desert you. let you down never gonna run

37:20

me all you want

37:22

as long as it's got

37:24

two S's. you right.

37:26

so if you look at

37:29

this this person did

37:31

the first word first the

37:33

way down the page the page

37:35

of the lyrics

37:38

to Rick-rolled song.

37:40

So I have taken this

37:42

photo and actually

37:44

typed I have taken

37:46

this photo as a word

37:49

Um, and actually typed it into

37:51

as a word I have it as

37:53

a word document. I've then

37:55

saved it as a as a PDF. And

37:58

then I can upload it. to

38:00

the cache page. and

38:04

You'll be reading

38:06

about Bohr's work

38:09

on the Manhattan

38:11

Project and how he

38:13

was the greatest

38:15

physicist. and whatnot. all

38:17

of this stuff, right?

38:19

And so it just

38:21

was something that was very funny that

38:23

I come across and I was

38:25

like, well, I'm going put this on here

38:27

and then. you

38:31

know, put a certitude at the bottom

38:33

of the page that you then

38:35

have to click on and the certitude

38:37

is going ask you, you know. What

38:40

is you

38:42

know. Uh. It's

38:45

not the official name of

38:47

the song, but you know,

38:49

what is it called know,

38:51

and so they're just gonna

38:54

have to know that this

38:56

is you getting Rick rolled

38:58

in. uh,

39:01

you know, in a, in

39:03

a in a

39:05

paper format that, know,

39:07

in an essay format, you're

39:09

getting Rick rolled. when

39:11

I saw this and saw that,

39:13

you know, some student created this and

39:16

then turned it in, I was

39:18

like, that's even if even if all

39:20

of the backstory of that is

39:22

false, and this is just something that

39:24

some kid put up on the

39:26

internet somewhere, it's still genius and I

39:28

love it. And so I'm somehow

39:30

going to make this into

39:33

a puzzle cache. I

39:35

would take the name of the author that's

39:37

how I do it. Take the name of

39:39

that author off of this thing. Oh,

39:41

uh -huh. and ask who

39:44

wrote this. We

39:46

are in a hotel room and he is doing his

39:48

podcast. Right. We

39:52

overlapped. We overlapped by

39:54

That that shouldn't be too hard for them to

39:56

figure out. Um,

39:58

but yeah They'll be

40:00

typing be sentences in you know,

40:02

a sentence here and there know

40:04

a senator and there. Maybe it's knows, but.

40:06

knows but back to this name.

40:09

to this name. Oh trying saying take

40:11

that name there off. Right right right,

40:13

right, who wrote the song? right that that

40:15

that be be the answer to the

40:17

certitude, right? Who wrote this song? song but

40:19

this put it as I wouldn't even put

40:21

song in there. I'd just say who

40:23

wrote this? I just say but wrote

40:26

this. because the song was

40:28

written by somebody other by

40:30

This person, right? this

40:33

person, right? So,

40:35

it's, uh, it's, you know,

40:38

You know, it's something. Um,

40:40

look, my, all right,

40:42

Kay Blast, now, right, k

40:45

my now. My karaoke

40:47

skills are phenomenal.

40:49

I know that they're phenomenal. You know

40:52

how I know they're phenomenal I know me

40:54

and my son went to

40:56

karaoke in Tokyo last year,

40:58

to karaoke in Tokyo last year, ovations. So, you

41:01

know, if I can know, if I

41:03

can get a room full

41:05

of businessmen drinking sake

41:07

to stand up stand up

41:09

and give me standing innovation?

41:11

Is it standing ovation or

41:14

evacuation? Well,

41:16

you know, either way, you

41:19

know, they all stood up,

41:21

they all stood up. know. pinnacle,

41:24

of of right

41:26

there right there. All

41:28

right. So that is

41:30

right, so that

41:33

is to four my

41:35

is going to get

41:37

essay paper is somehow somehow going

41:40

to get made into

41:42

a puzzle a puzzle cache.

41:44

then then. I'm going to do going

41:46

to do an in Omega.

41:48

And we actually have actually

41:50

have built one of these for

41:53

MOGA one year. year. And did you

41:55

see that you see is coming back?

41:57

coming back? Oh, Moga, Moga took a

41:59

year off. year the the

42:01

event never manifested and

42:03

happened. it

42:06

is coming back, and it's

42:08

gonna be in Abilene, Kansas, this

42:10

next year. so a

42:13

good friend of ours

42:15

and a local

42:17

reviewer, um, giant

42:19

teddy bear. reviewer That's

42:21

right, is somehow finagled the

42:24

rights to Moga and and

42:26

is Moga is coming back.

42:28

and And I didn't think

42:30

that it was going to

42:32

be able to come back

42:34

as a mega event, but

42:36

it is. It's coming back

42:38

as a mega event, even

42:40

though it took a year

42:42

off. so the alpha

42:46

and omega puzzle that

42:48

I created for Moga

42:50

was not easy to make. Thankfully,

42:53

anybody who has a copy of

42:56

that, Anybody

42:58

who has a copy of that

43:00

can just take it and create a

43:02

puzzle somewhere in their local community

43:04

and they don't have to change anything.

43:06

in it, because a lot like the

43:09

Rick rolled puzzle, if

43:11

you read the first letter

43:13

of every, I think there were

43:15

21 sentences or statements or

43:17

questions that had absolutely nothing to

43:19

do with the puzzle, but

43:22

had everything to do with the puzzle,

43:24

right? So if you read the first word

43:26

like the Rick rolled all the way

43:28

down the sheet and then the last, and

43:30

then transferred to the top and read the

43:32

last word in every sentence down the

43:34

sheet. It

43:37

would tell

43:39

you. to add

43:42

add

43:45

one degree to the posted north

43:47

coordinates and one degree to

43:49

the posted west coordinates, right? And

43:51

so you don't have to

43:53

change anything with it. You just

43:55

take that whole puzzle as

43:57

it sits. copy,

44:00

it put your puzzle, your puzzle

44:03

put your you know whatever

44:05

your final container is

44:07

out there in the bushes

44:09

somewhere the bushes somewhere. And then, bam, done,

44:11

easy puzzle. So you did the

44:13

first and last word. last

44:15

word. and last first and last

44:17

word of every sentence. the one

44:19

I the one my favorite In

44:22

my ever still is the one that I

44:24

don't, I think it had I think

44:26

you had like nine questions, but it was

44:28

a was a. First and last

44:30

letter of every sentence. sentence And

44:32

it said add and it said

44:34

one to post the to post the coordinates

44:36

or something like that. Yes, and it took

44:38

And it took me year year

44:40

and a half to solve that

44:43

thing. thing But when I did, everybody

44:45

in that office knew about it. knew

44:47

about it You're like woohoo!

44:49

You're like I was nuts and people were right? learned

44:52

out like what coming out like, what's

44:54

the crud's going on with them,

44:56

you know? you know Yeah,

44:58

so I'm Yeah, so I'm

45:00

just glad that, you know, once I

45:02

created it, I can take it

45:05

anywhere I want to go I can take

45:07

it make it into

45:09

a I want to go and

45:12

it go make it into

45:14

a then the last one that

45:16

I have in the works then

45:19

the last one that

45:22

I have in the

45:25

it's a we'll see

45:27

how... It's a it's a we'll

45:29

or we'll call it a tattoo puzzle. I've

45:32

I got on the

45:34

Instagram on the on

45:36

the phone I stumbled I

45:39

stumbled upon this tattoo

45:41

artist who kind of

45:43

does these. these like tattoos

45:45

tattoos that run from like

45:48

here to here, here to here

45:50

right it's all kinds all kinds

45:52

of like shapes,

45:54

shapes code, code

45:56

kind of But it is

45:58

is just line work. down

46:01

a You know a sleeve know,

46:03

a of a tattoo. So we'll

46:05

you know we'll we'll see it's in

46:07

the works. I'm working on It's in the

46:09

works. I'm working on it. a

46:11

He posts just a bunch

46:13

of just random ideas, and some

46:16

of them have have Morse some of

46:18

them have. some of them have

46:21

you know, know, of other

46:23

other different line puzzles. So

46:25

puzzles. reached So the

46:27

actually reached out to the guy

46:29

and said, there any is there any way

46:31

that you can make one of

46:34

these that then kind of converts

46:36

to to this? And he was like,

46:38

yeah, I don't, I was like

46:40

think that would I don't think that

46:42

would be hard. Send me

46:44

the numbers that you

46:46

need. if We'll see if

46:48

there's he but he does

46:51

this stuff like, like, kind of

46:53

like what the parachute did

46:55

for, did for you know the Mars Rover

46:57

right? Like it had. it

46:59

had it It had Morse in

47:01

the parachute. parachute of did

47:03

the same thing, but

47:05

with lines on. but

47:08

you know, black lines on. on you know

47:10

black lines on on he does

47:12

that and kind of

47:14

mixes it and kind of

47:17

mixes it with like

47:20

horoscope star charts and some other other, got

47:22

he's got some other stuff

47:24

that all converts to numbers. to

47:26

And so if you worked

47:28

on it from top to

47:30

bottom. on it be able to

47:32

get, you know, six or

47:34

10 numbers out of it. six or

47:36

ten numbers out of been working

47:38

with him, he does

47:41

it all. he he does I don't wanna

47:43

say with AI, want to say with but

47:45

he's got a way, and I'll

47:47

probably pull up a picture and

47:49

show it for next show it for

47:51

show, just so people get an

47:53

idea of what I'm talking about. idea

47:55

of what I'm because I about but because

47:58

I was running late. trying

48:00

to get stuff, eat

48:03

and some other stuff. before

48:06

the show, get the Wi -Fi

48:08

set up on the computer

48:10

and whatnot. But there's a tattoo

48:12

puzzle that's in the works

48:14

somehow that you know, if you

48:16

get it from, read it

48:18

from top to bottom. um, should

48:22

somehow convert to a

48:25

bunch of different numbers

48:27

through symbols and star,

48:29

or horoscope, star charts,

48:31

and, you

48:33

know, a bunch of other stuff. So

48:35

we'll see how it all works. It's,

48:37

uh, It's

48:40

right here now But

48:43

hopefully by the end of the year, we'll get

48:45

something. then, uh, so

48:47

that we can um, you

48:50

know, so we can get

48:52

it out there and published as

48:54

a puzzle. So... Jim,

48:59

as, the pizza ninja has

49:01

alluded to, you're not wrong.

49:05

You just have to make sure

49:07

that it is the correct

49:09

kind of pizza. Uh, Some people...

49:12

uh, some

49:14

people like.

49:16

fruit pineapples on

49:19

their pizza. some people

49:21

don't. Uh, if you

49:23

could find like it's not my first choice,

49:25

but if you hand it to me, I'm

49:27

gonna eat it If you could

49:29

find somebody that made like

49:31

a, uh, a pickle

49:33

pizza with like a peppercorn ranch

49:35

base. Still

49:38

not my first choice right now cause I never

49:40

had one. but I need it. I'd

49:45

try it.

49:47

yeah yeah. So

49:52

yeah, um, that's what I got

49:54

going on for puzzle caches that I'm

49:56

looking to get published this next

49:58

year. Um, You you know,

50:00

that's six pretty, you

50:03

know, pretty You know.

50:05

Pretty decent. from Mike

50:08

who listens to a from

50:10

Mike, who listens to

50:12

a recording of the podcast

50:14

when we publish we publish it,

50:16

else everybody else in geocashing

50:20

community will geocaching

50:22

community will probably be

50:24

plenty frustrated. with some

50:26

some of these puzzles that I have. I

50:29

have. in in the

50:31

queue. So, Judy No, ma'am.

50:33

All of my tattoos

50:35

can be covered

50:38

of my tattoos can be

50:40

covered with a t -shirt and

50:42

a pair of my mankini

50:45

shorts that I wear to

50:47

the beach. to the beach. So, Unfortunately,

50:50

I grew up

50:52

up with... the the fundamental belief

50:54

that if you want tattoos, then

50:56

you can have tattoos, as long as

50:58

I can cover them with a I

51:00

-shirt and a pair of shorts, then

51:02

my mom didn't care. But

51:04

she swore up and down that if

51:06

she could see them. down that

51:08

if She could see them were wearing

51:11

a T -shirt and a pair of

51:13

shorts that she would, of shorts that she would

51:15

Go ahead and smack

51:17

us with that

51:19

little backscratcher that she in

51:21

the house. house. So No sleeve tattoos, even

51:23

though both of my parents have

51:26

passed on now, now. That just is

51:28

just one of those of those no

51:30

tattoos for me. me. My My mankini

51:32

shorts and a t a cover

51:35

all of my tattoos and you'll have

51:37

to catch me at the beach to

51:39

see any of my tattoos that

51:41

I do have, unless you buy

51:43

one of my calendars. So don't

51:45

catch him at the beach. beach. If you

51:47

if you you of one of my wall

51:49

51:53

You'll see em. see

51:55

them You know

51:59

You know, it's just... saying, just saying. And

52:05

so, we'll, uh... you

52:08

know, it'll be interesting

52:10

to see how a A

52:12

lot of these things

52:14

roll out, but. but

52:17

we'll should be a good

52:19

time. Should

52:22

be. So

52:24

So, let's see, what Jim

52:26

say? I've tried pineapple

52:28

pizza, but you know, I'll

52:31

tell you. I found a

52:33

place in Vegas, of course,

52:35

you can find just about

52:37

everything in Vegas. But there's

52:39

a place there that made

52:41

the deal Pickle Pizza and

52:43

I shared it with with

52:45

and said you know,

52:47

hey, check this out. And he was like,

52:50

I'm coming to Vegas, so

52:52

you find just about everything

52:54

in Las Vegas. You

52:57

know, if you can dream it, somebody

52:59

there is willing to take a

53:01

chance on creating it. and

53:04

whatnot. so.

53:06

So I I

53:09

haven't had the pizza yet. I'll,

53:11

I guess I'll try it. I've

53:13
