we don't hate your money. you can stay up here for months and rent a house, no problem. we will make you wear a huge pink "I AM AN AMERICAN AND I SUCK EH" sticker but you shouldn't worry about that. its just a formality....

Well hell, Vanilla Ice is playing a Chilliwack nightclub April 30. Come up and we can vandalize his SUV while he's rockin the hizzouse.

Hey Off White, when you say Bill Bennett do you mean the former premier of BC? A Yes or No is fine. Id rather not hear who you do mean if its someone else. I feel like i just walked into someone's non sequitir and they left the lid up though.

it is real contagious though, thats the problem with it. every time i hear SARS i think its "Search and Rescue Syndrome" making you don a helmet and bumble around in the woods looking for a "lost Climber" who is actually drinking in the pub not realizing he's "lost"

instead of spending $20 grand on a huge ass SUV that can also take yer family at 65 mph down the highway, get a $10k used minivan for kid-haulin, and a $10K used truck with jacked up suspension for gnarly off road. or even a $10K unimog!!!

Notice that globally only about 60 have died from SARS. Thousands have it. Fatality rate is therefore about 3%. I'm not too worried. It isnt the next flu pandemic by a long shot. Hell, the USA and Britain are killing way more than 60 a day right now.

Alex Huber soloed 13d...not 13c. Dani Andrada soloed a 14b (Archipel) , although its a boulder crux and "only" mid 5.13 above the first 15 feet... Klem Loskot deep water soloed a 14a with a 60' splashdown off the lip. Hell I'm scared to jump off a 10m high diving board let alone double that height... I did do a 25m cliff dive once but I was drunk and it scared me sober. -
mouth of river = not a beach, a riverbank. technical distinction is fresh vs salt water i believe? i know lazy salmon will spawn close to the ocean, but they wont actually spawn on a salt water beach.

ya but salmon dont spawn on beaches, oolichans do.

tidal = not riparian except of course for river mouths
-
Yeah but if you live next to a riparian area you can't cut down the trees along it, or fuck with the river bank even if its on your property. Property rights are not absolute. and ya can't usually bust the pimpin dope rhymes out your bedroom speakers at max volume cause of noise bylaws.

spoken like a true lefty... i have run into plenty of selfish liberals out there. mostly "i got mine" union members.

Environmentalism is at some level conservative in that it is opposed to change. But political conservatism is opposed to social and economic change, and environmental conservatism is opposed to environmental change. Since its the current economic and political system which is causing much of the environmental change, the two philosophies conflict. Of course, current conservatism is Industrial era liberalism (individual liberty and rights, pro-industry, increase of wealth) and current liberalism is Industrial era radicalism... and you could argue that curreent environmentalism is as influenced by Industrial era conservatism as it is by radicalism.

Sisu its been a problem in the North for a long time. Current issue is not Sr-90 but dioxins, furans, PCBs. They are fucked no matter which diet they choose. Hear disease, obesity, and diabetes, or endocrine disruption, sterility and cancer. sort of like the Pacific Islanders whose islands are being covered by rising sea levels. What are they supposed to do, pack it in and move to East LA? Of course, the Makah whaling hunt was shut down because the EPA tested and found that the whale meat qualified as toxic waste and could not be eaten.

A ghetto blaster pumping out some Insane Clown Posse or similar at full volume is a good way to drive other people away from the route you plan on doing. That or stripping naked and chanting.
