  1. Enjoy the crowds. It'll be a zoo with so many gumby Spring Break kids on the loose. I'll recommend routes, but they could very well have long lines of groups waiting to climb.

    I'll add that if you've been using a cordelette for a belay when full strength runners and the main rope are available to equalize the anchors with, you need to rethink your strategy.

    Then what do you use a cordelette for??? confused.gif

    I don't use one. For me, it'd be like carrying a #6 tricam, or other stuff I'd rarely use. But I do like to carry 15 shoulder slings on longer routes. BTW, this thread is old.

  3. The Senate approved a similar resolution last week, stating that it was the sense of the Senate that March 17 should be a national day of prayer and fasting.

    That is plain wrong to step on St. Patrick's day, IMHO. But whoever claimed that the Senate always exhibited sense?

    Hey there! Anyone catch the front page of the Washington Post this morning? Seems as if some of the Big Wigs are starting to reveal that they think the War could last for months! Hurray for Don Rumsfeld!! Hurray!!

     

    I hold the shrub personally responsible. If he would have stayed up past 9:00 to listen to the briefings from the CIA on the true nature of the Iraqi popular conception of the US, or made himself the slightest student of history, he wouldn't have katowed to his bosses and slung our friends and family members over to the middle east with less than superior forces. I can find no words harsh enough to disparage him.

    It's "kowtowed", sparky.

  5. The last three good books I've read have been "Sweets" by Tim Richardson, "Close Range" by Annie Proulx, and "Gould's Book of Fish" by Richard Flanagan. I read instead of doing TV time, so I go through a lot of books.

    I'm still waiting on the book store to get me a copy of "Loaded" by Sabbag; It's been 7 weeks already. madgo_ron.gif

    Is that jealousy cologne you're wearing?

    I've tested at a pretty high level. But the number doesn't really mean crap as an indicator of whether a person will be successful, or not. Hard work is hard work.

    I drank about 12 moles of water/coffee extraction this morning.

    That would be 12 moles x 18 g/mole = 216 grams of water/coffee. 216 g x 1 mL/g = 216 mL of coffee, which is less than a cup.

    Since there are 55 moles of water in a liter, I guesstimated my consumption of a 6 oz cup. wave.gif

    Caffeine is legal in Utah?

    how else do you deal with 10 kids getting to soccer practices and recitals and stuff? probably a necessity!

    Chocolate and Mountain Dew are consumed in large quantities around here. The latest big news in town was a drug bust in which 8 college kids got popped with a couple pounds of grass, some fungus, and hash. Scandalous. And now where are the stoner kids gonna party? yelrotflmao.gif

    I think you gotta be 18. All I know is that I've never been carded while I've live here. fruit.gif

    Seriously though, I've witnessed high school kids pause at the entrance of a local coffee roaster and look down each direction of the street before coming in for a double shot of expresso. That's some funny shit.

    how was the resulting colloidal suspension? I hope it satisfied your transmembrane receptors

    No colloids; I'm talking nanometers, at most. The funky mm shiznit would be rude. I think that's called "Cremora". But the caffeine does offset withdrawl headache while stimulating micturation.

    Anybody can call themselves a doctor as well, but would you have anybody cut into you with checking their background?

    Some of us actually are doctors. But is that an MD, JD, or PhD? Give me the knife!
