Also, does a trunkmonkey count as a passenger, or does he have to be in the passenger compartment?

Simple - get a motorcycle - instant HOV lane access.

Well, this certainly is: strip the hottie You may not want to open this in the office. Duh.

Alright -obvious one - Royal Robbins, especially for visionary aid routes, as well as being an early proponent of clean climbing. But how about Ray Jardine for making a toy that allowed us gapers to climb cracks grades harder than we may attempt with just Hexes and nuts - look at it this way - we may appreciate Gill's focus, Croft's solos, anyone's big numbers or audacious ascents, but every one of us who climbs any iota of trad carries derivatives of those funky camming devices on our harnesses.

Read it a couple of months back - a fair read, some cool research - coworker is reading "Angels and Demons" right now - says it's exactly the same plot - just substitute "Illuminati" for "Templars/Priory of Scion" (actually A&D was written before DaVinci) If you want the whole 'Templar Plot' done well and with some literacy and humor, rather than just as an Oprah Bestseller, read Focaults Pendulum, by Umberto Eco.

Frequencies, by Joseph Ortega - near-future SF set in a somewhat orwellian future Seattle. The Count of Monte Christo - for my occasional Thick Classic fix. The Ten Thousand - Historical fiction of Xenophon's march from Persia, but not as good as Pressfield's books. Survivor, by by Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club) - Fun satirical read on religion, media, and cleaning tips. Currently fighting my way through Dave Eggers' "You Shall Know Our Velocity" - Giving him a second chance after 'A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius," which was none of those things.

Yeah, and if I pee on a snowbank, that is definitely now my snow.

"He doesn't need facts — he's a leader. Facts just make the world gray and hard to understand." That's classic.

I'll have to weigh in with my own CB story - I was climbing with an acquaintence at Smith a few years back - he had just moved into town, and was looking for a marketing job in the outdoor industry. Anyway - we're switching leads for the 2nd pitch of Tammy Bakker's Face when Chris and her husband/partner (RIP) lead up to the ledge. This was soon after they had bought MM, so my partner starts talking shop with them about the industry - long story short, by the time I lowered back to the ledge, he had a job interview set up for the following Monday, and ended up working for them for a couple of years. Politics aside, and I know that he had a few sketch stories about how trips were guided, etc., it was one of those cool moments of serendipity in the sport when something totally random falls in place and people connect -

You'r right. That would be, "whining cheese eating surrender-snaffle"

I'll Munter with the boat hawsers SG is using for TR ropes right now - Bothers the gf as she climbs more than the staff, but they expect sketchy behavior from me.

I noticed that, too. They should have the price rated by the number of days of dumpster-diving required to get enough bottle deposits back to purchase the toy.

Well, its $10 cheaper, and 75 grams lighter - When my Grigri wears out sometime around the next Ice Age, I may look into one - If you are in the market for a camming belay device, it may be a good alternative.
