My nuts have that. [insert seventh grade humor here] The plastic makes more friction on the biner, so it's harder to slide them around. I guess the grip is a little more positive while placing them.

Nothing like high-flown abstractions to deaden a perfectly good troll

Give a thread long enough and it'll turn into the opposite of itself. Is that Bush's "other" niece?

Osama would vote for Bush

Lots of Clark and Dean in my 'hood. Nearly all the Bush donors have their info concealed

I'd have probably played it like you did, but afterwards I'd wonder if I should have assumed he didn't see me and just slowed up a bit to whip past him on the left but still in the curb lane? In any case, chasing down another rider just to go off on them is just wrong

I thought it was tee-uh-tuhn.

whoops!

Where is Tieton not grid bolted?

If you plan on using a biner brake for your regular rap device, you'd prolly prefer a full size oval. But the Doval is good for general clippin' and stuff and it'll do a biner brake. You need a true oval for body weight uses like jugging or pulleys, but I use a locking biner for that anyway. Biggest problem I see with the Dovals is their 7kN open strength.

I walk on the wild side and just print them at 7" x 7.5" and keep them in a ziplock. So far so good.

I hate sharing a summit with people who strain so hard to bliss out they nearly give themselves a hernia.

Maybe President Kerry will declare Ketchup low carb.

Isn't it just about manners? I mean, I wouldn't want to see a loving couple groping each other at the belay station, wouldn't want to hear someone discussing the runny boils on their genitals, wouldn't want to see somebody take a crap in plain view. Plain old social conventions make it so I don't have to see it and know not to do it. At the crag, though... some people climb just to get that fuck you world feeling.
