Current Goal

I would like the computer bug to go as far away from me as possible so that it never bothers my computer again.

About This Item

Computer bug the Travel Bug

After having extensive problems with my computer which nothing I did would fix I finally opened the case and guess what I found there. Yep its the lil bug you probably are now holding in your hands. Take my advice don't let it near your computer, keep it locked up at night or he will try and sneak in. It was quite a fight to get him out of my pc but I finally managed to pull and subdue him in a few short hours. After I had him safely locked up and had applied the many bandaids to my hands and arms I wondered how would I get rid of it, after all computer bugs are immortal. Thats when I found geocaching and thought to myself what a wonderful idea, well I put two and two together and wrapped him in plastic walked him into the woods and placed him in the Wildcat Falls Cache in New Hampshire USA, hoping he would be wisked away, far far away. As I write this I can already tell my computer is finally bug free and I tell you my friend I am grinning from ear to ear. As for you my unlucky friend I would advise you to stuff the lil trouble maker into a cache and feel lucky if your computer hasen't experienced any problems durning his brief stay. Well good luck to you all and I wish you well.

Funny lil guy :) I discovered it in a different cache, I guess the previous user didn't log it... It was in GC1043A last time I saw it.
