After the death of Jabba the Hutt his treasure was destroyed in
an accident. But a secret video tape has surfaced in which Jabba
specifies the coordinates of another treasure that he had placed
somewhere on Earth. Here is the transcript:
Tugi! Ma pika na Jabba. Ji ne rima di ingola. Chuba rima di
hatta?
Chuba tapa na di kato ma golki? Upa chuzu ma golki
wata:
Norda pizgu-dopa dopa-goba dopa-wanga-wanga
Uro wanga-higi-goba wanga-kin pizgu-pizgu-dawa
Yakun sapha de tegu!
Men yo kilin nara. Ripo! Chuzu ma golki e ux enki
gopa!

Update 12/28/2011: The cache went missing in April 2010,
possibly washed away by flood waters. Then the area it was replaced
in got razed. Now it is in a new place that's North +.005 and West
-.015 from the coordinates Jabba gave you. The Geochecker below has
been updated to take these offsets into account since quite a few
people forgot to apply the previous offsets after getting the
Geochecker solution.
