Depends on the forecast, I have a Cloudveil Cascade Jacket (Schoeller Dynamic, no hood) and a Patagonia Dimension jacket that get's taken most often. I run a little warmer and sweat more than my partners so I don't do hardshells. I'd look at a lightweight (and cheap) top like this: http://www.sierratradingpost.com/xq/asp/base_no.14096/dept_id./qx/product.htm and then get something with a hood to put on when the weather is crappy.

Wrong. Moderators and Admins (this includes you btw) ban people for being complete assholes, and one of them happened to be your friend. Get over it already, sheesh. Don't you have a super secret bannerators forum for discussing this kinda stuff?

2 more months...

1 - Coalition Provisional Authority. 2 & 3 - I don't care and I doubt the Iraqis do either.

Woke me right up. I looked out the window (facing North) and didn't see anything. Sounded like a loud series of popping in the Monroe foothills, like a bunch of big trees breaking.

Awesome!

More pics! I suppose that guy next to you is Ragnarok?

I was along the I-90 corridor last weekend and found pretty damp conditions, they've had quite a bit of moisture the last 3 weeks. Here is a link to the telemetry sites if you're interested in that info. http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/Missoula/nwsomso.sfcrgl.html

I wonder if it was related to this email I recieved last night: FROM: THE DESK OF DR.VICTOR UBA. FEDERAL MINISTRY OF PETROLEUM RESOURCES Alternative email:ubavictor@web-mail.com.ar. Dear Sir, TRANSFER OF US$20MILLION INTO A PERSONAL/COMPANY’S OFFSHORE ACCOUNT.

It is our sincere conviction that you will handle this transaction with absolute confidentiality, maturity and utmost sense of purpose. I wish to further inform you that we have twenty Million U.S. Dollars(US$20M) which accrued overtime from deliberately inflated contract awarded in my Ministry (Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources) and executed by a consortium of multinationals in the Oil Industry. The projects executed include the following: 1. The expansion of pipeline network within Nigeria for Crude Oil and Downstream products distribution and subsequent evacuation. 2.

Yours sincerely Dr.Uba Victor ------------------------------------------ Faites un voeu et puis Voila ! www.voila.fr

I always found putting raw hamburger in my running shoes to be a good way to get some interval training while out for a jog in dog infested neighborhoods.

2. People who premise a comment by saying "Now I'm not trying to (fill in the blank)...BUT," and then they go ahead and do what they just said they weren't trying to do.

1. Commie liberal moonbats. That's pretty much it.

Everyone should check out: http://gorp.away.com/gorp/publishers/wildernesspress/trailsafe/trailsafe.htm I read the articles a few years ago and think it's valuable info. I've run into more excentric whack jobs in the mountains than I ever have in Seattle. I can e-mail a version I downloaded into MSWORD if you send me a PM with your address.

I have a golite Reach jacket (currently on www.sierratradingpost.com for $79) that weights 10 oz. Very lightweight and compact which is all I wanted. It rides the bottom of the pack just fine. I finally wore the dang thing last weekend as I left my softshell in the truck and we were getting some heavy wet snow. I paid $29 for mine on some clearance internet sale. I'd be wary of this one if you actually intend to wear it much, the fabric doesen't seem to be ready for much abuse. I take it only as insurance incase my softshell gets wetted out, which hasn't happend yet. If you're planning to actually depend on the raincoat, you might look at something built a little beefier. Oh yeah, the Reach has a funky cut, long arms so when you "reach" over your head, your wrists don't pop out. The rest of the time, you have this bunch of fabric at your wrist which is not noticable if you're wearing a glove with a gauntlet but anoying otherwise. The hood is big and floppy, fits good with a helmet, irritating without one you almost need to wear a baseball cap to keep the hood from flopping down over your eyes. Big vent across the back and 2 tiny napoleon pockets, big enough for a set of keys or pack of gu.

How much can he deadlift? That is the question.

I'm sorry you believed me. DOH!!!

Sorry Jon.

I like the part where the bum's chase Lance when he crosses under I-5 near the U district. They're all like "hey, get-im, he's probably got something we can steal and sell for thunderbird money!!!" and he's like "eat balls, you couldn't catch me on your best day" then they're probably like "yeah, get outa here or we'll kick your ass!!!" I think Nike should let me narrate the entire commercial. I'd sell a bunch of shoes.

WOW!! I'm super impressed you can almost powerclean your bodyweight!! I would never poke fun at someone on this website, especially an administrator. I might be sent to banned camp for hurthing their wittle feewings. My dad can outrun your dad any day of the week. I'M RICK JAMES BIATCH!!!

That one's sold out, has no hood and is 5 oz HEAVIER!

How about that little mexican hole, er place in Yucca, near Joshua tree? Bullet holes in the windows, Bible literature on the tables, 2 great tacos, a can of pop and a plate of black beans for $2.50. I think the three of us ate dinner for $8.00 while the cook unknowingly serenaded us from the kitchen. Had a jelly doughnut from next door for desert.

Oh wait, that's me

Yeah!! He's probably one of those tough guys who think they're hot shit becuase he can squat like 400 pounds but can't get a 125 pound deadlift off the ground. You know deep down he's a crying little kitten
