No hot water, no toilets, no lights. (but Whitey's on the moon)

You managed to: A) stick ice cream into your nostril. and/or B) blow ice cream out of your nostril. and/or C) make ice cream in your nostril.

Yeah, but you've got a booger-nose surplus.

North side (south facing) crags are pretty much dry with a seep here and there. Snow Creek wall still has snow on the big ledges (Two Tree and Library for example.) It looks like the left side of Pearly Gates is pretty dry. Bathtub Dome is dry. The forecast looks pretty good for this week over there. Good luck, and if you are indeed looking for shit, it's poking out of the snow all around the parking at the end of the (currently) driveable road.

50 degrees F and sunny in the Icicle today. A typical crowd on Mountie Buttress and a party climbing some chossy crap above Snow Lake parking lot, but otherwise, it was pretty much deserted. Lot's of dry rock, including the left hand side of Pearly Gates. Spring seems to have sprung.

He's a Stanford man...

No. Susan B. Anthony and Benjamin Franklin. Probably others... I would say that you're wrong. Franklin was a diplomat, and a signer of the Declaration of Independance. Susan Anthony fought (not litterally) for womens sufferage. While they never held elected office, doesn't the effort they put into politics make them politicians? If not, what is a politician? I think the Buffalo on the Buffalo head nickel was not a politician. Indian head penny, Liberty dollar, $20 gold eagle...

Even if the shrub turned 180 degrees and proclaimed that global warming was a real danger, the rest of humanity would not suddenly stop spewing the current stew of 'greenhouse gases' into the air. We are a weak, short-sighted species, totally dependant on the creature comforts the use of fossil fuels has provided us. Nothing short of extinction will change that.

i 2nd that motion Explain exactly under which circumstances one should use the "bleeding anus" gremlin. It could be used to denote suffering, or how things can go terribly wrong, just when everything seems to be going your way. Complaining is already covered by the "wahmbulance" (snugtop). I happened to be there when the late Earl Redfern told a story in Camp 4 about a fall he once took while leading an A4 pitch right off the ground. He ripped a bunch of placements and landed on a spike of granite that, as he said, ripped his anus. This was back about the time he, John Bagley, Tom Bepler, and Eric Brand were in the valley preparing for the west face of Mt Thor on Baffin Island.

I think Matt is maybe talking about Arrowhead Spire. Next door is Arrowhead Arete, an obscure classic, and in my book, an enjoyable route. I also think the 3 pitch Bishop's Terrace at the Church Bowl is worth a look. If you don't want to deal with the grief on Nutcracker, After Six is a actually a fun, mellow route that might not be so crowded. Not a classic, but doable.

I was up there last fall, (apparently) poaching mountain biking fun.

Does anybody know the story on the railroad circuit just over the saddle on Mt. Home Rd in 11worth? It's worthy mt bike terrain, but I'm guessing it's also private/leased land.

14 Points of Fascism A comparison of the regimes of Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, Suharto, and Pinochet identifying 14 characteristics common to those fascist regimes...(read the link for a comparison to shrub administration 'hijinx') Highlights... Powerful and Continuing Nationalism: Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights: Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause: The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial, ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc. Supremacy of the Military: Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized. Rampant Sexism: The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy. Controlled Mass Media: Sometimes the media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common. Obsession with National Security: Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses Religion and Government are Intertwined: Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions. The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite. Labor Power is Suppressed: Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts: Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts is openly attacked, and governments often refuse to fund the arts. Obsession with Crime and Punishment: Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations Rampant Cronyism and Corruption: Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders. Fraudulent Elections: Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

and one in Mill Creek at the old airport and the one in a trailer park across from the veterinarian clinic on the way to the Edmonds ferry and the one in about a hundred feet of water about a half mile north of the Edmonds oil dock,... Old Mill Creek airport.

I'll second that.

I was afraid to click the "Member Services" link.
