We found the Rose Cache Thursday night, and we watched Celene Dion's "The Colour of My Love Concert" on DVD. The 'phone cord untangling ritual' struck me as being amusing, might even be funny to future generations reading this. (Yes, kids, phone used to have cords. The base used to have a straight (non-spiral) cord that plugged into a wall jack, while the handset plugged into the base via a springy, spirally, rubbery cord that would incessantly get tangled up. Thus, we used to have to periodically unplug the handset from the base, and hold the handset aloft and allow the spiral cord to unravel.)

Becky's favorite CD is Drew's Famous 57 Greatest Kids Songs. She listens to it in the car on Discman, so we can't hear the music, but we can hear her singing and clapping along - it's hilarious.

This also is hilarious: a proposed piece of legislation to prohibit kids from wearing their pants too low. This is the best privacy idea I've heard of yet: disposable personal information. The JPEG copyright infringement case is just stupid, much the same as the GIF and hyperlink copyright infringement cases in the past. The idea of cold fusion just won't die, but sadly Woody Woodpecker's voice died Friday.

Found the "FLUME RIDES AGAIN" cache Friday during lunch, then stopped by Twin City Surplus to pick up some 'prizes' for the CITO cleanup on Saturday.

Spent Saturday morning cleaning up trash at the corner of Kietzke Ln and S Virginia St (across the street from the Convention Center) for our "Reno Central NAB CITO Cleanup" cache (part of the overall Reno Clean and Green event). Many thanks go out to Christi Cakiroglu from Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful and Barbara DiCianno from the City of Reno for their help in organizing this event!
