Yay! Really great to hear you're doing better, Kurt!

It is right up my alley, klenke, and all I can say is have a good weekend.

I'm yeah on the gluco, both for me, and my dog with hip dysplasia (I've had two vets recommend it for him). Also, vit C helps rebuild damaged cells, e.g., cartilage, so I also take that and give it to the dog. Hasn't hurt...might help.

Matt, I will recommend AGAINST the HP Photosmart Digicam...I should have done more research before buying mine. It sucks up battery life even when turned off, so I go through batteries like crazy. My prints are awesome, and ease of downloading and printing are great, but I would not buy this camera again.

This may be a long shot, but anyone out there know about any bouldering near the Oregon coast town of Neskowin (just north of Lincoln City)? I'll be there with my family - all non-climbers- next week. Might be able to drag my sisters out if I promise they won't get too far off the ground. Thanks, jules

Greg, I've been going to Crown Hill Vet Hospital for about 2.5 years with my Newfie, who has a little hip dysplasia and a genetic digestive disease. Had a bad experience at Phinney Ridge with a rather alarmist, arrogant person. I love the vets at Crown Hill for their reasonableness and willingness to give me all the options instead of just the one they think I should pursue. Phone is 206-782-6363, and they're open on weekends, too.

bramayama, is the rocketbox still available?

Jim, call 1-360-569-2211 and hit 9 for the SAR hotline. Names are mentioned in the recording. I hope it's not your friend.

I was there last year, May 7th thru 11th....it snowed every single day, accumulating about 3-4 inches over the course of the first two days. The last day it warmed up enough to melt all the snow and dry most of the rock we were on. This year might be drier.

Happy 2004! Looking forward to another year of having a heck of a lot of fun...

Had a chance to preview the film...the story is compelling enough for me to have appreciated it and the book. Not a lot of climbing in the film, but great commentaries from Simon and Joe, and highly impactful story-telling (for me anyway, though I am sure any guy out there would classify me as "emotional.").

Whisperlite Internationale - used current model, excellent condition $30 (these are $75 new) web page Also have a bunch of Isobutane cartridges that are used with stoves like the MSR Rapidfire...some are mostly full, a couple are completely full. If you come get them, you can have them (I'm in Ballard, of course). PM me if interested.

CW, They "branded" a bunch of stuff a while back...I'm pretty sure it's just their logo on product made by other companies. Natl Geographic
