Hey Trask! You aren't British by any chance are you? This sounds like you: http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2002050329,00.html [ 02-01-2002: Message edited by: Dru ]

that's not just a shovel pocket that is a Tech Flap that can take crampons AND shovel plus two axes, or other stuff like your helmet, rope & hydration bladder in summer. and removable for lightweightness. NOZONE... its not just the GHOST STRAPS TM that make it so awe-inspiring. OOops...I dont write catalogue spew anymore. In fact i never did

yeah Matt!!!! Discovery Channel before Baywatch any day. Why? Cause Discovery Channel has The Crocodile Hunter! "Crikey, he's a big one isn't he. What a beauty! Watch this, he's going to lunge for my calf muscle now. Lots of flesh on that, that would make a GRATE meal for a rabid dingo!" [ 02-01-2002: Message edited by: Dru ]

If you mean Kitty Calhoun I hear she deserted the PNW for Jay Smith and Utah.

Todd, when you check this thread on Monday1) you are a puss 2) Colorado sucks. That's OK, I dont mind. you can live there all you want. Twight and Donini moved there 'cause they were pusses like you who couldnt hack the bushwacking. 3) The Acadian is someone who lives en Acadie. You figure it out.

Don't forget "Environmentalists are the true conservatives." I can't remember the source of that quote, though.

... and the fact that America is the Great Satan is just a forunate coincidence...

quote: Originally posted by todd: and usually its "au canada", not dans la canada. i know its easy to confuse, as most canadians are feminine little poofs, but believe it or not, canada is masculine in french. eat more cereal. Ah, zut alors, quel dommage, hein, I was referring to "La Canada" which is the exclusively French part of Canada and home to les Canadiens. Quebec + Acadian NB + a tiny bit of northeastern Ontario. you can look it up.

i learned my portuguese, spanish, German, Korean etc. from babelfish.com - but i learned my French from cereal boxes and Mrs. Johannes in 3rd grade! and the french Nuit d'Hockey dans la Canada!

at least you're a rope lead now! and everybody but me and dan larson is really an avatar of mike adamson. thats 3/2000 or something like that.

todd, talvez você deve reconsider essa situação, vendo como como você você mesmo parece se sentar na frente de um computador. no fato, os idiots são encontrados em todos os níveis da abilidade escalando, e o fortes são justos como pequeno-ocupado como o meek - em alguns casos mais assim.

turn it off and turn it on again

W, can you fix my motorcycle for me

quote: Originally posted by Matt: Why do you think they are so angry at America? What has driven them to think the only solution is terrorism? I think it's because they are losers in the global ecomomy. They see us as greedy and unwilling to share. It is a simple case of the haves and the have nots. Osama bin L. is (was) a Saudi multimillionaire... I dont think your argument is very persuasive there...

whatever on the rambocomps climbing bad, todd, maybe you could explain that? like maybe grivel didnt give you payola $$$$ the way splitter gear did ??

We're #2, we're #2... oh wait... that is 2nd most bad, nothing to cheer about. At least we're still first in energy consumption. power

Reinhold Messner used to walk around town holding snowballs in his hands to toughen them and desensitize them to cold. obviously it diverted blood flow away from his brain thus explaining the bizarre Messnerese the guy speaks.

if he honestly forgot his lunch... i share. but if he deliberately forgot his lunch cause he knew i will feed him, the bastard can stand to lose some weight! c'mon matt lets not get the simple platitudes going cause they are so easy to subvert. [ 02-01-2002: Message edited by: Dru ]

so, having made my point on consumption, at least my drive to Lillooet is shorter than yours.... i will make up for it by drinking more beer than you. at least beer is a renewable resouce

quote: Originally posted by Heinouscling: One word is sufficient to describe the cause for most of the world's ills ... "Overpopulation". -Heinous Do your part to solve this problem, kill yourself. Consumption is just as big a problem as overpopulation. If every person consumed at the level North Americans do it would take 8 more planets to support us all. If we were to standardize population indices by resource consumption level that would show the USA having a larger effective population than India's and almost the same as China's.
