nothin like a snafflehead

is this what you mean....erik are you thinkin about your tit right now?? ...downclimbing... i think the only "flow" there was the flow of blood down his chest

I don't see any cases on this site where people have been flamed or subjected to mean spirited rhetoric for just posting a trip report There are certainly cases where blatant chestbeating has been called such as in the cases of people 1) bragging about how good an area is, but refusing to indicate where it is; 2) claiming basically that the route they did is the best route ever climbed in the whole Cascades with a big "You suck" to everyone who was not part of the ascent; 3) wildly inflating grades or difficulty. I would hope that these actions would tend to keep people honest and modest instead of over the top and padding their resumes. BUT THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT TRs ANYWAY!!! It is all about retro-chestbeating about stuff we already chestbeat about this summer and now want an extra helping of pectoral bruise for. I don't see any TRs posted to this thread. If we REALLY wanted some chestbeating potential it would be more like "What are your 3 big objectives for the winter" in other words advance chestbeating. Then 1) the project is out in the open and available to steal; 2) big talkers can get called on it when 6 months later they haven't done what they said they did. Now on with the and Matt, please try to stay on topic in the future

it would have to be This Is Your Brain at Cheakamus Canyon. The beautiful scenic vistas of highway mayhem in one direction, and Tantalus Range in the other.... the funky ripples... the weird pro.... the spaced bolts... the half assed scrub job.... the death march approach and sketchy 3rd class to the base... you this crag has it all! come and visit!

j_b since it was minxie who suggested to me that i swap mary lou for her as intern, maybe you should accuse minx of misogyny? anyway, all i did was suggest a person for a position. which is now you by the way instead of marylou the position of intern has nothing inherently wrong with it. i bet GWB has lots of interns. i find it funny that you all immediately associated my remarks with the actions and impropriety of Bill Clinton and his interns. it is a shame that the actions of one Democratic president have so tarnished a valuable institution like internship.

how about this? the government sets the overall level of taxation. the taxpayer checks boxes on the tax form indicating what his/her tax dollars can be spent ON greenies & democrats can choose to have tax dollars spent on health care and national parks rednex & repubs can spend tax dollars on presidential salary and the military. geeks can spend it on NASA and DARPA.

actually i had this image of marylou as marzipan saying "That's NOT FUNNY!"

slow off the mark lameboner someone already posted the gollum image this morning in another thread and they actually managed to post the picture too - unlike you but better late than never huh?

A good variant would be, instead of government, post the members of cc.com you think are most like the Homestar Runner characters

And it still is! But why don't you post some of your own choices

east coast punks do it better

is this the kind of 'humor' some of you were talking about? trask is such a 'fun guy' .... OK.... I withdraw it again... j_b for presidential intern

at minx's suggestion I am withdrawing this idea in favour of MARYLOU for presidential intern.

looks like they's working the sitstart!

When rr666 logs on he does so twice and one is a choss dawg and one is a lurker?

minx for presidential intern

can I quote a PM here?

Do you mean the same way Katie Brown, when she took up trad climbing, said Red Rocks 5.8 (Dark Shadows) was "really hard and scary" ?? then again I think 5.13 sport is hard and the humiliation of dogging bolt to bolt in front of the posey Smith crowd is scary so maybe you are right, the reverse is also true!

could they trickle ice over the dam edges and make ice parks?

i have more posts than the top posters on rockclimbing.com and ukclimbing.com does that make me the world champion sprayer

But seriously I am surprised someone hasn't tried chucKpine's argument already with regard to National Parks, arguing bolts make the wilderness more accessible to Americans of different abilities, and that banning them is exclusionary - isn't that the argument that was used in favour of snowmobiles in Yellowstone?

you must have missed the part of his original post and be taking him seriously matt

why are urinal and stall the only choices. what about "shower" "sink" or "trask's mom"

tell him you are mike adamson
