Thanks, I posted this on our local mountain bike club list serve.

Just bringing this to the top.

Try the local news papers in the spring. We had a reporter from the PI on a club mountain bike ride. He wrote an article for the Getaways section. We should be able to set up something better than the usual lame ass articles they do on climbing at Mt Erie of Bruces Boulder in Levenworth.

Moumtain bike ride at Fort Eby State Park on Sunday. Cool place, gets about 1/2 the rain Seattle does. Chares on Sat.

This means checking the latest is much faster and I will not miss anything. Thanks.

Who cares. I just got a Mac so that's all that matters.

The UW rock between the football stadium and the ship canal. Marymoor park rock in Redmond.

Thanks Fred that was cool

Cool with me.

Nice place, good music. We should go there again. Not to smokey.

WAKE UP AND CHECK THIS SHIT OUT. http://www.nyfairuse.org/action/palladium/palladium.boycott.xhtml They also have discovered extortion as a sales tactic: http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/2003-01-21-simdesk-cover_x.htm FUCK MICROSOFT!!!

David, I am with you on this one. We have never been to Pioneer Square before. Should be fun. Matt, do you realy want to see shrubyas speach or are you jokeing?

When the Stupid Bowl hangover is under control we need to think about where we are going to drink. Sounds like it's the New Orleans.

There was a thread about a year ago with lots of back country recipies. Do a search. I don't remember the exact title.

This is a PM I got. I am very happy with my life, it is yours that makes me mad! I will continue until you are a two-pack a day addict, with a 38 year old ex stripper for a wife with a totally gnarly whiskey voice. At home will be a bunch of kids depending on you to pay all the bills, which you do, too bad none of them are yours! While you are slaving away, your wife will be having a bunch of affairs with Dan Larson, Caveman, and To The Top. Your life will be sad and pitiful. Aidain (from Tacoma) will be happily married to Jules, Veronica, and Ehmic. All four of them will enjoy each other sexually every night. You will never have sex cause your wife will be too drunk and exhausted to put out. Your only escape will be a smokey bar near your apartment in South Park, where you will eventually impregnate the slutty waitress. Your wife will leave you, and you will have lots of child support payments, alimony, as well as palimaony to the slutty waitress. So sad, yet you deserve it. Alpine K is that from one of your avatars

Well said erik, maybe it's time to get a NO IRAQ WAR sign for my front yard. Can't wait till I tell my Dad, he will shit his pants and spew a bunch of bullshit about how we NEED to go over there with or without the Euros.

This post doesn't reflect my opinion, just wanted to see what the righties had to spray about it. Greg W. where are you?

Wow, that's more complicated than I can handle this early in the morning. My intent was to bring in some people who don't come to smokey bars. They are not wimps, thay can't deal with smoke for whatever reason. I don't mind smoke as long as it's not thick. However it's nice to go nonsmoking once and a while. We have had many a good time at The Latona. I will suggest that place in a few weeks. The person who sent me that nasty PM needs to get a life and relax.

It would have been big enough for the number of people last night.

Specailed, don't feel bad, i have also failed at Poser World. I said fuck and went to the UW rock instead. I have never been back to the gym.

AK, i am shure you can stand a non smoking bar once a month or so. IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE BAR, YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO!!!!!
