Alright. The Cuff it is.

Let's have it at The Cuff instead!

Whoa whoa whoa, let's hold on a minute. In all our haste and name-dropping, we almost forgot a couple. Jeez, what about Thelonius, huh? And what about Glenn Gould? And a recent fave, Natacha Atlas? Jeez, check her out already, will ya?

Which route did he rename?

Liberation just gives me goose-bumps. I can't remember the name, I think it's cut #6. It builds up to the lines "They found her dead, in the back of the school, with a needle in her arm, baby, three months due, Sasha Thumper" (?). Just the way it builds to that, the story it tells: Childhood, innocence. Fuck. I think both Andre and BigBoi both rap with the Dungeon Crew. I actually heard a little thing about them on NPR. Check 'em out, you'd probably like.

Hey, I thought you said you didn't rap? But unfortunately, you're into that rhyming shit.... [ 10-08-2002, 08:11 AM: Message edited by: sexual chocolate ]

I wanna hear Caveman rap.

No one here listens to rap or hiphop. I wonder what the median age here is....I'm guessing O-L-D. One person did mention Outkast. I must have listened to Aquemini 78 times on my last roadtrip. There's a cut on that thing that actually has made me cry. And the new M&M disc is pretty good too.

quote: Originally posted by Jens: I did take a powder once a long long time ago. I hung on a bolt or two. All I remember was that is was not a route for soft shoes. As a mountin climber I only go to smith about once every three years -So my memory is faded but speaking of stout 12A's, Freebase seemed really hard for the grade. Any thoughts? Hey, I have a thought on that one. My thought is that it's fairly representative of a 12a, but somewhat crimpy and technical, yet most everything at Smith is somewhat crimpy and technical. So in other words, it seems to me fairly representative of a Smith 12a. At Index it might be 11c. At Little Si it might be 13a. [ 10-07-2002, 09:17 PM: Message edited by: sexual chocolate ]

Right now I'm listening to Pavement. Haha. Before that I was listening to that shitty Paul Allen station, KEXP, fucking whores. HAHA. Before that I was listening to Sheila Chandra. Haha. And then before that it was Gillian Welch. And then before that I was enjoying Buckethead. I was kinda enjoying Megadeth in there somewhere, but it was some lame late '90's cd. The Heavies: a partial listen was given and it was kinda neat. Kinda monosyllabic though, bad legs, heavy on the stem, no flower. I don't know if I would travel without Leonard Cohen. I think Leonard is the quintessential traveller himself, breaking on every shore, but never getting wet. What's up with that? He'll die, leaving ashes on the ground, which will then be used to build apartment buildings in New York City, and everyone living there will suffer from ironic melancholy and bad posture. Geez, how do people listen to this fellow? And now Gillian Welch is singing again, and that's all I have to say. Hey, happy listening to everyone as you listen to your favorite music, ok? Don't forget to do a little dance, too, ok?

Jeez, fellas, it's Sunday! It's Funday! It's God's In-the-hills-I-Will-Runday! Everyone take a deep breath and instead of bashing anyone, say a prayer for those that are suffering. Include yourself (if you ever suffer). Include Neil Young (When will I see you again?). Include Dwayner (who could use a prayer, while not admitting it....). Include those that lost a dear friend and loved one in Goran. Include your family and friends, and all the things that you are grateful for. I just said my prayer. Amen.

Why you ending up in polar bear territory?

Thank you thank you!

Thank you thank you!

It is true though that anonymity can let loose all the hubris that normal social controls keep in check. Anyone seen Das Experiment? Or the little kids on the island, what's that one called? But damn dwayner, you're still a contentious sanctimonious pious pretentious overly sensitive hypocritical pig fucker, so get over yourself already!

Goddamnit, where's Mtn.Goat when you need him? HE'D sort out this mess!

"regular" status? What the hell is that? I'm chronically stuck on "chronic gumby". HELP!

Dang. I did the math, and it actually came out to 1,331.

Ugh! I just fell through my floor into the basement.... I think I figured it out. I'll double a 2*6 for a header and rest it on doubled studs at both sides of the room, flush with the walls, then just block up to the two 2*4s that the rafters and ceiling joists rest on. Luckily my ceilings are the old school 9 footers (1909 craftsmannish house), so the header will only bring my bay ceiling down to 8', and i'll leave the rest at 9'. I'd rather have it all at 9', but I couldn't anyways because of the rafter drop. Thanks for the help and feedback! Next I'll be adding a second floor and a staircase!

testing....

No plumbing in the exterior wall, although I might put in an outlet. thanks for the input. And i imagine you're talking about plumbing venting? nothing's moving that much, and only about 2' by 6' is being added.

Thanks for the input. I think I will go with the 2*6. It'll give me more wall to put in cool in-wall shelving, too. One more question. The 6 feet of wall that i'm knocking out is a load-bearing wall, with 4 truss ends resting on the top plate, which is 2 2*4s stacked. Is this enough support, or should I shore it up, and if so, how?
