What can I say about SID (that is consumable by the masses)?
He’s a freak the likes of which are rarely seen.
He’s part of the historic quintet: Nessie, Sasquatch,
Leprechauns, Chupacabra and SID. I have to admit that
he’s the reason I have had my share of time at Evil Pine Trees, Godforsaken
bleachers, and
hours spent at a computer pounding my head on the keyboard in an
attempt to solve his puzzles. I decided that ‘in
order to conquer the SID, I have to learn to think like a
SID. And, whenever possible, to look
like one. I've gotta get inside this guy's pelt and crawl around
for a few days’- I said to myself. So I decided to
take up hockey. Also I have invested in a medieval rack- I think
I’ve gotten 1/16th of an inch taller already and
am up to 5’8 3/16”! Also I bought a boat and am
looking seriously at a new Honda Odyssey Touring Elite. But
really his profile page says it all: “I feel
I’m what Geocaching is about. Playing the Game on
my terms, my way. Judging others while
hopefully not being judged by others. If you are looking at any of
my puzzles and need some help just drop me an email and I would be
glad to ‘bwa-ha-ha-ha’ at you and bring you
Dilly Bars while I watch you search!” But I’m
paraphrasing and may have embellished a little bit there but I
think the message is still pure.
To be sure SID elevates our sport from the
sometimes nerdy, Dungeons and Dragons-esque state of affairs in
which we find ourselves to a level of coolness previously only
attained by college athletes, rock stars, and reality tv stars- and
for that we thank him.
I won’t wordsmith SID’s mantra: "Play it your way
and on your terms. Always be supportive of other cachers and help
other cachers to keep having fun."
He does all 3 with class.
Thanks for all the fun and for
Seeingitdifferent. Congrats on
2,000!
