"cloth"?

hey speaking of the Taliban! Message in a Bottle Osama bin Laden's half brother Yeslam Bin Ladin is out to prove that all Bin Ladins are not alike. He's selling a perfume advertised as "a profound, yet gentle, message in a bottle for all who long for inner peace." The 54-year-old Saudi citizen initially wanted to name the scent "Bin Ladin" (using the family's preferred spelling of the name), but opted instead for the more discreet "Yeslam." Bin Ladin says he has no connection to al-Qaida and barely knew his father, who died years ago, or his notorious half brother. Bin Ladin will sell Yeslam for $30 an ounce in Europe and the Middle East. "I would love to launch it in the States," the perfume maker said. "What do you think the reaction would be?" -- Jenny McKeel

hmm Seems like they made the choice!

You will burn in hell

How come it is sunny in the week and rainy on the weekend? Would it be too much for the reverse once in a while?

Yeah, it all depends on the approach. Snowshoe, bootpack or ski whatevers fastest, snow conditions and how far it is depending. Like if you were going in to do a multi-day approach postholing would severely suck but for a multipitch hard ice climb one hour from the road you probably wouldnt want to ski in and climb in ski boots. Also depending on the descent.. do you have to carry your approach method up and over? Skis are heavy and suck to carry even on flat ground, on technical ground it is double suck.

shotcrete and chicken wire

Hey _Flu! Get out of my basement! How can I have a basement when I live in an apartment?

Osama WANTED Bush elected. That's why he waited till 4 days before the election to release the video.

1) oNe handed bouldering 2) Slab climbing 3) This guy is climbing with a broken ANKLE so suck it up you sissy! A broken hand, pah, I could probably still ice climb with a severed head!

Scar Creek camp was pretty slow when I was there last but that was March. It may be a seasonal thing, or a regional thing (more accessible timber in different valley).

Exactly. The clearly superior option.
