Geocache Description:

Small to micro cache needing a pencil.
Found along a nice walking trail in the back of the park.

Since the dawn of humanity, or at least since the invention of socks, this problem has plagued mankind.

  • Sometimes people complain that the washing machine eats their socks.
  • Some are certain they go into some kind of space-time vortex.
  • There are what is called "Sock Bandits" These rogue groups of thieves
    are notorious for causing havoc in most towns and cites.
  • There are no such thing as lost socks, misguided or non-conforming
    but eventually all socks meet their maker and find happiness.
  • They go to The Twilight Zone. Haven't you noticed the floating sock during the intro?
  • Using advanced technology and the RFID tags previously placed into your socks at the factory by RFID gnomes, who are also everywhere, the gnomes pick out socks that look appealing and will sell for much money.
  • It's a well-known fact that wormholes connect many locations in space and time. What's not well known is that dryers in particular are very good at starting wormholes. Eventually, minute enthalpic fluctuations will cause one of these to open up and fling your socks, say, six hundred years into the past.
  • As recorded in documentaries, there is compelling proof that there were set into motion a number of foul magical spells, many of which still rage and swirl around today and cause sock to cross over.
  • There are others that think kids have been thoroughly brainwashed by evil Red bastards, Commie kids have been breaking into people's houses and stealing socks. They believe that stealing enough socks will cause Capitalism to crumble.

There are many possibilities for where socks go, but most of them are crazy. This is due to the fact that just as an old sweater takes on the shape of the person who wears it, the world that we live in takes on the shape of our craziness. We live in a world of gnomes, dark magic, crazed Arab physicists, and, of course, socks. Even if we could figure out a way to prevent socks from disappearing, would we really want to?
