I like frogs.

Lancegranite said: Problem with trying to change the "albeit social ineptitude" is that going into a relationship with the idea that the other person needs to or will change is a faulty premise that dooms it. I'll keep holding out for the hot climber dude with some social skills. Sounds like you and your wife worked out on a lot of levels. Gives me hope.

Have fun with all the party/concert people out that way for the Sasquatch festival. Bring ear plugs or you might not get any sleep on Sat night.

Dru you are in a weird mood. You been again?

So who's heading to Squish for Memorial day w/e? We should have a pub club somewhere in town on Sat. night if people are interested. There may be some b-day boys in town.

So we've gotten a bit off track here... Who's going to smith this w/e? I'm trying to decide whether to head for certain sun and climbing on my not so favorite tuff wearing my sport top and shorts, or to chance the weather conditions at Squish and climb hand cracks on my favorite rock ---GRANITE! Oh hell, maybe I'll just save some gas money and head to Index to finally "nail" (figuratively boyz, so put the spray back in your pie holes) Green Drag-on.

Why not just replace them yourself with water knot tied slings?

Tim - I agree we should be focused on the people too if they were hurt. From the posts on the supertaco site written by one of the two guys at the base that were supposedly hurt, it doesn't sound like they had more than scrapes. They were lucky. And so was the dog.

You can read the "dog's" version of the events in the link on the thread in TLG's link above.

What size do you need? I have a pair of 40belows that fit my size 5 (unisex aka men's US sizing) plastic boots. They have not been used and are reinforced (per 40below) on the instep, toe and heel, with shoegoo. We can make a deal if they'd work for you.

Dru -Just print out your posts from cc.com and the pile will be taller than your mags in no time.

Never heard of the drink you're using Jedi. I've had good results with 1/2 strength Cytomax. Makes the stuff affordable.

WMA is good as well. Any WFR class you take and is accredited by either WMA or WMI will give you your money's worth.

It's okay Sobo, it didn't drift too far thanfully. But I didn't want to see a cool kudos thread devolve into another one of our cyberanaylses. If someone wants to start a discussion on helmets and head injuries that's fine, but start a new thread please.

Lummox, like the new avatar image. Oh and FYI, it's good to see how much you guys laud the cool hot climbing chicks, but this is a few posts from getting shipped to spray.

To get this thread back on track... I agree with everyone else the rescuers and rangers did a great job with this and are heros regardless of the outcome. Thanks for putting it out there gang and coming through once again!

I agree with Fern. Also, what the heck is your belayer doing? If you've got no pro in you are not "on-belay". He/she should be spotting you. If you can't get pro in within the distance where a spotter would protect you, why do you think a crash pad would help?

Check your pms, Seth.

Nope, but if the drinkers can handle just being caffinated they can descend on the new UZoka's on Blakely and surf the web at high speed... I think a little face-to-face discussion isn't a bad thing periodically.

I think it's supposed to rain, so maybe we should hit Dantes. We always seem to go there when it is raining.

Glad to see you're posting again. Maybe you've been around for awhile, but I haven't had time for spray. Thanks for posting the story. Very interesting.

We had great weather at the end of Sep a few years ago. How about 9/24-26? Then since Smith has better weather later the Smith thing can be in Oct.

Got a surprise assignment at school. Can't make it. I can't wait until summer!
