Dude, owls go "hoo", as in fill in the missing letters for the name of Trask's favorite owl-themed restaurant: _ _ _ ters. On a related note, it should not go unsaid that with a velcro fly, you never have to worry about snagging your wang in your zipper. Righteous! Velcro Fly? That a route at Smiff???

Its no doubt Bush Administration is inept at running our nation's economy and just about everything except reading polls and PR. And even though Bush might be invading Iraq to appease his oil buddies and avenge the attempted assasination of his dad, its in the long-term interest of America and the world as a whole to get rid of Sadam's regime and proliferate organized and connected society and culture. Yeah but, if we want to promote that kind of world, we shouldn't seek PAX Americana Roman style. However, I like the way those guys party Only need to promote it Roman style, by force, with regimes like Sadam's. Otherwise we've got Coca-Cola and McDonald's to do it for us.

This really is a misconception about the economy and government involvement. A current administration does not "run" the economy; at best the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve chase the economy with their false manipulations of interest rates. They do more harm than good; whether there is a Democrat or Republican in office. Since it began, government involvement in the economy has been a DESTABILIZING factor instead of a stabilizing one. Bullshit. An administration has all sorts of control over an economy. The biggest factor being the BUDGET. A balanced budget and move towards reducing the defecit = faith in economy which drives investment and propels the economy. Cutting taxes and overspending, the hallmark of Reagan's and Bush's economic plan, result in bloated defecit, inflation, and sluggish market.

Well one way to look at it is that the US wins (politically) if Iraq does use chemical weapons And we win if they don't too. ...but I hope they don't

Short-term problems for the long-term benefit of the world as a whole. We do need to raise taxes, not lower them, as Bush advocates though

Bro you crack me up!!!!!!!

I think this is Scotterx's attempt at humor. Scoteryx!

No one said doing the RIGHT THING would be easy.

The only thing my support of the war is "blinded" by is KNOWLEDGE and EDUCATION. War supporters, in my opinion, tend to be blinded by knee-jerk reactionism and short-sightedness.

If you haven't found a partner already, I imagine you'd have better luck if you posted again closer to July. That's probably too far off for most people here to plan a trip to Squamish Good luck.

Hey you should wait until you're older wiser and more experienced before making that assertion, despite what some other goofballs might be doing... People have gotten in trouble doing that. Believe me, I've seen it.

First of all why would a climb all of a sudden start spitting out gear? Did a pack of elves who enjoy removing pro take up residence inside the crack or something? Both those routes are splitter and take PERFECT gear. Second, Who the fuck are you to tell anyone here not to free solo? Why do you assume someone reading this isn't competent enough? The rock at the City is consistently good and solid - its actually a fine place to free solo if you're going to. What you said was paramount to saying noone should free solo anywhere ever. What an arrogant and ridiculous assertion. Thanks for the good beta but keep your assumptions and condascending "warnings" to yourself

If its a WC Friend or a Costalot you can buy replacement triggers and wires from your friendly local outdoor retailer. If not you might have to send it back to manufacturer or call them up to see if they sell replacements.

Don't confuse support of the war with support of Bush

its 420

Didn't you hear!!! Al Gore just won Florida!! And the election!!! ...wait they got that one wrong too. Damn.

SHOCK AND AWE!!! Atleast its not the Alpine Kitty

Must be Al Quada secret plot to take down the US infrastructure via rockclimbing.com. That damn raskal Saddam!!!!

The olden days was good

They say our military is going to do some shit that will "shock and awe" the Iraqi people. Like what? Broadcast Jerry Springer reruns on the Al-Jazeera network or what? Maybe show some pictures of Trask's tennis playing girlfriend? I don't know.

You ever heard of having a standing army bro? It means my country uses my taxes to pay people to be professional soldiers - a concept revolutionized by the Romans, and quite the hallmark of an advanced society. If our soldiers have to root the Republican gaurd out of Bahgdad, that sucks. But that's what they VOLUNTEERED to do and get TRAINED and PAYED to do. Kind of like Dru getting payed to spray on CC.com if you will.

What's that guy doing with his left hand!!??

Sorry bro I warped to level seven, bypassing all that "work" shit. Unfortunately the only thing in my fridge is processed cheese slices and beer. And some 2 week old horsecock.
