Shaq-Kobe-Malone: I hate the Lakers Payton-Jackson: I love the Lakers It's gonna be a confusing season

Steve, listen to the voice inside. It is obviously saying something, you just need to figure out exactly what the message is. Climbing, family, risk, resonsibility. Also, I'm reading into your TR that you had expectations of the climb that were not realized. And lastly, you got the Hood season's all turned around. Climbing Yocum during a dry Fall season and the NF early in the Summer. You're timing is making for unpleasent climbing conditions and the risk factor is substantally increased. Go ahead and tell me to FO with my shit advise.

Nice climb (Forced bivvy) NOT= (sleep)

Just got back from Squamish. We had a great time, others did not. There has been a rash of car break-ins in the parking lots at the local crags. I talked to two different groups that had their cars vandalized in the Smoke Bluffs parking lot.

Why are we hated..... - Cause we stick our noses in other peoples business - Cause we assume that others want our help - Cause we assume our help is what other want - Cause we are fat - Cause we are bossy - Cause our intent is narrow - Cause another fucking Bush is running the joint

Two years ago I climb LR and the berg was split into two sections. - First a near verticle 7 foot sugary snow wall that was tough to get a purchase in. - Second a 12' tall, just slightly over-hung ice wall Both were tough to climb through, but we got our fat asses up it.

Heading down to the Sierras tonight for a week. Whitney, Russell and Muir climbs planned. Yee Haw!

Shred and mini vans are like peas and carrots

You forgot to factor in the size of your Johnson [(Amount of water you drink) + (Size of your prostate gland)] x 5(Size of your Johnson)

The M's kick ass on the recent road swing, winning 11 of 12, then come home and get spanked by the lowly Canadians two nights in a row. What's up with that?

Eric, you should have asked Wayne about I-rock Wednesday night. He' very familiar. I think you can score photo copied route descriptions of I-rock at Climb-Axe.

The PDX gang doesn't mess around when they throw a party

Chris/Kristin, Thanks for allowing us to trash your place. You guys are the best. And then there's Steve's fucking beer. I only had 4 or 5 glasses, yet here it is 7:45 in the morning and I still have a buzz on.

Good point B., thirsty climbers might show up at Chris' door tonight. It could get ugly when they discover the free beer is not flowing tonight. Chris, I know some gun toten hicks from Corbett who would love to provide security. They will do the job for a can of chew.

Your boss hired my firm to track your Internet usage while he was away. You're busted dude.

Looks like someone lost a bet

Even I voted for Sassy's...I mean the BBQ. Chris, do I need to bring anything to YOUR BBQ party beside my thirst for beer?

Hey all, our out of town guest, the esteemed god of Portland rock and ice Wayne Wallace, politely asked for a gathering on the day he will be in our fair city.... Tuesday 6/3. If the first annual PDX climber BBQ is held on a Wednesday, it will have to be another week. Lets get something together next Tuesday while Wayne is in town. I suggest something different. We skip out of work a little early and head out to Edgefield, play the short course and see how many balls we can whack into the blackberry bushes, then adjourn to the bar and blame our shitty golf game on the fact that we climb every weekend.

As long as there's beer and climber gab the PDX gang will gather. There's been talk of a BBQ. Rob, Paul, Chris, anyone else, any of you guys able to host a mid week bash at your crib?

When my truck starts making noise I just crank up the stereo to drum it out. No worries man.

Trask, please follow Formaldehyde Head's advise. Your PC is sure to overheat and pop a gasket. CC will be spared your gutter mouth and pointless dribble for a few days.

Christian and I had big plans that materialized into smaller plans. Funny how iffy weather does that. Ended up climbing the S Arete on the S Early Winter Spire and sport climbing for a day in Mazama. The mountians were not a safe place this weekend. Shit was sliding off everywhere.

Stopped in Mazama this weekend and discovered a gem, The Burnt Finger Bar-B-Q Co. The chef and propriator was tending the home made barbaque cooker, a 5' x 2' upright drum with a door cut in it's side. Vegans need not bother, this place is to enjoy meat. On the menu are beef ribs, pork spare ribs, baby-back ribs, BBQ chicken, baked bean and chili. And this ain't horsecock I'm taking about. There was a pan of home made apple crisp cooling on a window. Great food, great service in a rustic country setting.

Your climbing experiences are simply a routine alogrithm in one of my programs.

I have Whitney permits for four climbers. Dates: 6/22 - 6/26 Only two climbers are going for-sure, and a third is a maybe. That leaves one or two open spots on the permit. We are focusing on Whitney's East Face and Mt. Russell's classic routes. PM me. Chomp on this
