Geocache Description:

The cache is not located at the posted coordinates. It is, however, less than two miles away.



This puzzle cache is dedicated to my "new old" friend and caching buddy: DrPerp.*

DrPerp is a longtime friend of my family with whom I recently become reacquainted when he experienced the distinctive and unmistakable pull of Geocaching.

This puzzle bridges from an inspiration I obtained via a brush with the legendary Tikibirds (i.e., I stole the idea). DrPerp wears a crown that might actually give him an unfair tool when it comes to solving this puzzle, but toothfully, it really shouldn’t be all that hard for anyone to crack. Four out of five cachers will gum by the answer the first time they floss over it; others will have to be patient and molar it over for a while. The rest may abscess over it permanently – to them it will almost be like pulling .... well, you know.

Then of course there are those who es-chew puzzle caches completely; they bristle at the grind of challenges like these.

Ready? Open wide!

You may now rinse and spit.

If you aren’t very enameled with your solution and you want verification, don’t drill me for help oral direct you to place your answer under this pillow:

Of course, if you can’t seem to pick the puzzle (or even denture a good guess), yet you somehow gum across the container acci-Dentally, your smile-ey will be just as ful-filling.

First finder wins a prophy: a standard paper KBI First Finder plaque available for clinical removal.

Hurry, don’t decay! Pick yourself up off the fluoride and extract this cache! I’m rooting for you. Just remember to practice good geo-hygiene by replacing the cache in exactly the same cavity you found it.



*UPDATE: 4-2-08

Our hiding place was obliterated recently. It was in the Path of Progress, so we’re not really complaining, but we had to move the cache once again, and now it has been installed in its third permanent location after having spent the winter in the back seat of DrPerp’s truck.

The puzzle and the evince thingy have both been freshly updated. If you’ve already solved the previous version and don’t feel like looking at all those teeth again, email me the old solution coords and I’ll swap with you for the new ones.

Not only has DrPerp provided yet another cool location, he has also agreed to help maintain the cache. He will be helping me look after it, and has promised to restock it with a few theme-related goodies from time to time.

If you feel like you’re being watched at the cache site, don’t worry – they all know what’s going on. Nobody should bother you!
