  2. ...and all this time I thought it was 1/2mv squared... I hope anybody that wants an equation as a tattoo pulls out a decent mathematics text book to double check their work. It's a lot easier to tattoo paper if you use a pencil and eraser as the tattoo marking tool. How about this one: I get it! That's her circumference...in meters! Ladies, those tats you acquired ain't gonna looks so hot when the small of your back is no longer the small of your back. My wife's parents had an employee with a tongue stud working retail. They soon realized that nobody could understand her since she always sounded as if she were choking on something. They then required her to remove it during work hours. She liked her job and complied.
  3. This statement makes major, incorrect assumptions. But I'll leave you in the dark. And while I'm at it, let me ask why you feel the need to support some of the most incredibly stupid, offensive comments...made by some of the the most incredibly stupid, offensive participants... to be found in this forum? Vulgar attacks on Christians are to be defended? Now Jews? What's next, our African American brothers?

    Feck, I see the little "moderator" icon next to your handle. With your special status, perhaps you can be of service. The first and perhaps the most important upgrade for the new Alpine Buddy should be to change the caption under his image. "Enthusiast" is one of those veiled insults that elite mountain climbers use to refer to wannabe climbers. I can think of a handful of synonymous words I've heard over the years....pilgrims, aspirants, gapers, candidates (that last one is Dave Bale's favorite). Maybe you, with your moderatorial powers, can help here. Let's change his image caption to ALPINE BUDDY.

    I read this and ask myself, "Who's the bitch?" Dude, you're harshing my mellow.

    Mark is a prime candidate to be named Pope and Dwayner's "Alpine Buddy". And I don't think he will disappoint us the way the last recipient of this honor did.
  8. There are no old, bold climbers. Not to point fingers because we've all been careless occasionally, but climbing is something you can't enjoy in a cedar box. No matter how talented and inspirational you are (or believe you are), you owe it to yourself and the people who care about you to show a little restraint.
  9. Here's an economical solution: But seriously, you might send Serenity a PM as he has filmed more than a few mountain bike adventures with a helmet cam.
  10. Funny shite.
  11. I remember back in '85 in the Tacoma Mountaineers, one could earn a (don't laugh) "six-peak pin" which celebrated the dubious distinction of having climbed a handful of peaks near Snoqualmie Pass. Probably by now I've scrambled up all of them as winter climbs but I can't remember which peaks were included.
  12. You're kind of a jackass but I do enjoy your photography.

  14. Ooops. Wrong thread.
  15. I'd like to meet Peter Puget.
  16. I hear that can cause you to go cross-eyed and make your palms grow hair.
  17. That's gotta be the quote of the week. Kev, it's kind of like Urban Climber or Sport Wankers Weekly except it reports real climbing and does not cover happenings at Smith Rock.
  18. I'm pretty sure you won't be able to drive to Reflection Lake. Park at Narada Falls. All of the peaks you mention are great winter outings. To approach Lane Peak's north routes, climb the slope above Narada Falls up to the road. Go right (west). The road will turn south and then back to the east. Just as it turns east, drop off into the valley to a point just east of Lane Peak. The N-Face gully climbs on Lane are down-stream. They could be in good shape with the warm rain we had and subsequent cold temps. Difficult to know. The descent is down the drainage just east of Lane, then back out the way you went in. Pinnacle and Castle are best approached by continuing on the road to Reflection Lake. Castle's East Ridge would be pretty good if not too snowy. Don't do the North Ridge of Pinnacle.
  19. Some recordings with the Heartbreakers are nice. For rowdy rock-n-roll, check out LAMF. My favorite Thunders solo effort is Hurt Me, which doesn't sound anything like punk.
  20. Anybody from the early 70's band still alive?
  21. I'll get you a copy of LAMF. You will like.
  22. Work this out!
  23. Any Johnny Thunders fans out there?
  24. Anybody a fan?
