The idea is to look at the hint after you have found the cache to see if you have guessed the correct catchphrase. Hints will be given on some caches in the series. An assortment of container types, some will need tweezers & pen to sign the log. Please note the location of cache before removing & replace as found.

Hervé Jean-Pierre Villechaize, also known as Mark Marmolejo was born in Paris, he achieved worldwide recognition for various roles including that of the evil henchman Nick Nack in the James Bond film, The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), as well as Mr. Roarke's assistant, Tattoo, in the television series Fantasy Island (1978-1984). He was also an acclaimed painter.
Though popular with the public, Villechaize proved a difficult actor on Fantasy Island, where he continually propositioned women and quarrelled with the producers. He was eventually fired after demanding a salary on par with that of co-star Ricardo Montalbán. The show's popularity waned after this move, and it was soon cancelled.
Villechaize suffered from proportionate (as opposed to disproportionate) dwarfism, likely due to an endocrine disorder, despite his surgeon father's attempts to cure the disease in several institutions. In later years, he insisted on being called a "midget" rather than a "little person".
In 1993, Villechaize ended his own life at his residence in Los Angeles, California. On his death he left a suicide note saying he was despondent over longtime health problems.
