Current Goal



***August 8, 2007 Mission UPDATE***
We'd like to get this coin back to us so we can make a few changes then send it back out to gather more humor. Please try to move this coin towards Chelmsford, MA (N42 35.700 W071 21.396). Thank you, and happy caching!

*Original Mission*
In memory of my dad who had a wonderful sense of humor, so much so that his nickname was Jolly Wally. This coin's mission is simply to move from cache to cache gathering humorous stories, jokes, etc. Please post a funny story, anecdote, or joke when you log your find.

About This Item

Wally's Humor Geocoin

My dad (Wally) died in 2001 of cancer. His incredible sense of humor has been inherited by all of his children (and working its way into the next generation as well). Wally served in the Navy on the USS Shannon during the early 1950's so any Navy related anecdotes and/or pictures would be extra special!

More miles ... more humor ...

Four retired veterans are walking down the street. When they see a sign says "Veterans' Bar," they go in. The bartender asks for their order and they all ask for a martini. He delivers the drinks and says, "That will be 40 cents."

They can't believe their good luck. They finish the drinks and order another round, and the bartender again says, "That will be 40 cents." This is when their curiosity, so one asks the bartender, "How can you afford to serve martinis for a dime apiece?"

The bartender replies, "I guess you've seen the decor here. Well, I am a retired Navy Chief and I always wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the lottery for $45 million and decided to open this place for real veterans. Every drink costs a dime -- wine, liquor, beer all the same."

They notice four guys at the end of the bar who haven't ordered anything.

They ask, "What's with them?" The bartender says, "Oh, those are retired Marine Gunnys ... They're waiting for happy hour."

Logging miles where I cache .... and humor ......

One day a platoon of Marines are on patrol when they come upon a Sailor relaxing on top of a small hill. The Sailor puts his hands on his hips and screams out, "Do any of you seaweed sucking jarheads think you're man enough to take me on?"

The biggest Marine comes running up the hill, screaming back at the Sailor. When he gets to the top he simply plows into his foe and the two tumble down the other side of the hill, out of sight. There is the sound of a horrendous fight for a moment or two, and then all is quiet.

Soon, the Sailor reappears, quite untouched. He puts his hands on his hips and sneers, "Well, looks to me like one of you couldn't do it, how about the rest?"

The enraged Marine platoon leader sends his entire platoon (30 plus men) charging after the Sailor. They all go tumbling down the far side of the hill. After 15 minutes of screaming and yelling and cursing a lone, bloodied Marine crawls over the top of the hill.

The platoon leader yells up to his man, "What's going on up there?" The wounded Marine, with his last bit of breath, replies, "Sir, it's a -- a trap, sir. There's two of them!"
