  1. "Bush was deemed the most admired man by 29 percent of the Americans surveyed, according to the CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll. He was followed by US Secretary of State Colin Powell and Pope John Paul II, each with four percent of the vote. Sitting US presidents regularly top the list of admired men, but the same does not always hold true for first ladies. Hillary Clinton was the leading lady for 16 percent of poll respondents, while First Lady Laura Bush came in third, with six percent of the vote -- just behind US talk-show diva Oprah Winfrey, with seven percent."
  2. Well, there goes 80% of Spray. Spray forum descriptor on the index page: "Be warned this forum is not for the thin skinned."
  3. From the article: “I believe that the reason I smoke and drink every day and my wife is overweight is because we watched TV every day for the last four years,” Dumouchel stated in a written complaint against the company, included in a Fond du Lac police report. “But the reason I am suing Charter is they did not let me make a decision as to what was best for myself and my family and (they have been) keeping cable (coming) into my home for four years after I asked them to turn it off.” and Timothy Dumouchel of West Bend wants $5,000 or three computers, and a lifetime supply of free Internet service from Charter Communications to settle what he says will be a small claims suit. They should put this jerkoff in prison for filing a frivolous lawsuit, or just beat him with some coaxial cable until he bleeds from the ears. Cable company stole the "off" button on your remote too huh fat-ass
  4. Loprinzi's, dat's da one. I used to live at about 40th on Woodward
  5. 24 Hour at either Sandy across from the Hollywood Max Station, or the one downtown. The Bally's downtown near the Rock Bottom brewpub is a good choice too. If you can do without the chicks, there's a grungy pit of a gym in SE close to 39th and south of Hawthorne, closer to Division...I forget the name, it's someone's last name though like "Dugan's" or something. It's a no B.S. kinda place with pretty decent rates. Or you could just do the ClubSport, suburban hell, $1000 membership thingy and have good climbing facilitiy, extensive high-end regular gym, cafe', and hottie latte' sippin, SUV driving, makeup in the gym wearin', soccer MILFs everywhere.
  6. Did anyone actually have their "chosen faith" or whatever church you "belong to" (appropriate term, that) come up as #1, or even #2 in your list? Although I don't engage in organized religion, if people ask my beliefs I tell them they fall closest to Zen, which is a branch of Mahayana, or Taoist..so it actually pegged it for me...or validated my assertion however you want to look at it.
  7. 1. Mahayana Buddhism (100%) 2. Liberal Quakers (97%) 3. Taoism (97%) 4. Unitarian Universalism (95%) 5. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (88%) 6. Theravada Buddhism (86%) 7. Hinduism (85%) 8. Neo-Pagan (83%) 9. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (83%) 10. New Thought (78%)
  8. Feathered Friends, Second Ascent, and Mtn Gear are all Kayland dealers
  9. Sunset Park, Chattanooga, TN...not backcountry though Call Jason Keith at the Access Fund, he should have comprehensive knowledge on this topic.
  10. It's a pretty basic concept of periodization and one reason to use it whether or not you're trying to "peak" for an event. High rep work that keeps you aerobic encourages capillary development as well as connective tissues development. You'll lose some max strength and power during a high-rep low pump aerobic phase. However, the losses in this area are quickly regained through some low rep/heavy training. Freakishly quickly. The physical benefits (increased blood supply) of the "base" phase won't diminish much when you switch phases and go to strength training, certainly not at the rate that strength drops off when you're doing endurance work. This is probably due to the neurological component of power/strength vs the primarily physical component of increased blood supply. There is also the energy utilization aspect of endurance, but let's stick with basics. The net result is being both stronger and having better endurance. It's also likely that recovery from the workouts will become enhanced due to the increased circulation. I've greatly oversimplified a complex concept here. Any high rep exercises (i.e. > 15reps) is unlikely to add more than a small amount of mass. If you're addding mass with endurance work, ou're probabaly eating too much. It takes around 20 minutes for the "satiated" message to reach your brain from your gut, so you might try eating half your meal, taking a break and then seeing how hungry you are after waiting a while.
  11. What's your point donkey? Lets get down to basics: You posted this to imply that the rich are disproportionately funding charity. The net-worth/household-wealth model is probably a much better comparison than AGI if you really want a picture of the upper class's contribution to charity. Despite being in higher tax brackets, the rich avoid a tremendous amount of taxes through shelters and loopholes. The AGI figures will not reflect this since they represent taxable income. The end state is that there is a widening gap between the rich and the poor, and a disappearing middle class. The robber-barons better pony up some charity money, because all of us underlings are going to need it before long. I will say this on your "leeches" comment: The hardest working fuckers I've seen in this country are typically the lowest paid. Try your hand on a mexican roofing crew or on a slaughterhouse line sometime Pete.
  12. ...I WAS BORN A CAPRICORN, I WAS BORN A CAPRICORN I WAS BORN A CAPRA I WAS BORN A CAPRA I WAS BORN A CAPRICORN THE GOAT, THE GOAT, THE GOAT, THE GOAT THE GOAT WILL CLIMB ALL OF THE TIME FROM PEAK TO PEAK THE HIGHEST HEAP I LEAP AND LEAP NO TIME FOR SLEEP FROM CRAG TO CRAG I ZIG AND ZAG FROM ROCK TO ROCK I SKIP AND HOP RIGHT TO THE TOP I NEVER STOP....
  13. Dolphin breaking the surface maybe?
  14. That's the best you can do Pete? Darren just tore your pathetic spew apart and the best you got is "Are you sure?".
  15. They still have them, but $10 now instead of $5. I got a pair, and they run kinda big as Pete said. They don't fit my Alpha shells (could probably make them fit though by ordering a size small, and taking a knife to the upper section), but they work like a charm in my snowboard boots. Kept my feet plenty warm at 0degF this weekend.
  16. Tabor! The word leaves one particular railslide possibility haunting my mind. The long stairway or the guardrail?
  17. He's too busy training to send that 5.13, he's got no time to post
  18. faster than they chopped our barbs when TLG was wishing for another 10" tonight?
  19. Garble Garble is a mystery: Is she a foreigner with only tenuous grasp of English? Is her brain addled by some powerful drug? Does she suffer a serious mental debility? Is she typing wearing a catcher's mit? Garble's rampant typos, malapropisms and seemingly aggressive use of execrable grammar can't be explained merely in terms of poor typing skills or the lack of a spell checker. Even non-English speakers generally do a better job of punctuation grammar and capitalization, and Garble is all the more puzzling because if one goes to the trouble of wading through the muddle of her messages a discernable idea will usually emerge. For example, in a forum discussion about a painting she might say, "Sorry the picchr the har is wrog. The culir. I liike the lips bot teh Paintng is sucs". When attacked for his random capitalization Garble might respond, "oPS i HITTED THE CAPDLOCK". Not surprisingly, she drives Grammarian and Nitpick absolutely nuts, but she is utterly impervious to any sort of correction and if their attacks persist she will sign off in a huff with something like, "yuor forum si stupef. bYE!"
  20. #9 line...isn't that Powell? Dude, you should try the #4 down Division it's the sickness or the 14 all the way to Tabor...skin up, rip park benches and picnic tables all the way down or drop the north side steeps and hook up the Belmont line...I forget the number. You could jib off the bike rack right into the door of Stumptown #2 on Belmont.
  21. There are nordic trails I can ski at lunch about 1 mile from my office. 6 month season and lighted too.
  22. Did you show her your "Oh" face?

    Yo mama so fat, when she cross the street cars look out for her! Yo mama so fat, when I climbed on top I burned my ass on the light bulb. Yo mama so fat, she's the same height standing up as laying down.
