sign of the caiman
Submitted by Sarah on Tue, 12/11/2007 - 7:05am.Ah, the sign appears once again: ^@^
Somwhere here on OlyBlog there is a post with a photo of brave Olympians flashing the caiman sign in unison at the Broho. Hold your hands out palm down, extend middle finger as the snout of the caiman, tuck the other fingers in.
I'm told that even recently a silent battle of caiman signs occurred downtown, one participant in a car, the other in a restaurant.
Chilling.
I know not of that to which you refer,
Submitted by Olymp-ian on Mon, 12/17/2007 - 10:19am.Bravery in action
Submitted by Sarah on Mon, 12/17/2007 - 10:48am.You and your foe deserve crowns of laurel in honor of your dedication to enacting ancient rituals of caimanetic battle. Perhaps by these actions the two of you prevent caiman incursions - caimans are hypnotized by the flying hand gestures and cannot continue with their pursuit of puppies and kittens.
Does your foe know that you claim victory?
Caimans in Olympia?
Submitted by globaldenny on Mon, 12/10/2007 - 10:49pm.Observe, then Weep
Submitted by stevenl on Tue, 12/11/2007 - 6:40am.Yes, I'm sorry to say caimans have been in the Fetid Lake of Doom (formerly known as "Capitol Lake") for over a couple years now. This short 8-page visual essay will reveal all.
After reading it, you'll see why Rick's first statement in this thread is not a warning, it's a threat!! You might also have seen the news that the annual Polar Bear Swim is moving from the Fetid Lake of Doom because the Fetid Lake of Doom is too fetid, and going to Long Pig Lake. Hey, caimans can read too, you know.
Someone help me out here

The caiman have their minions
Submitted by Crenshaw Sepulveda on Thu, 12/13/2007 - 12:35pm.I have it on good authorty that the caiman are transported around town during colder weather upon the roofs of the cars of their minions, probably without their express knowledge, and sometimes with. If you see a vehicle with a device on the roof like the following durig the winter you can be fairly certain a caiman is being moved about. If you inspect these devices closely, but not too closely, mind you, you will notice the tell tale sign of bits of nutria fur around the opening.
