Oh and I redpointed 5.10 in my first year of climbing too.

two friends of mine have onsighted V10. They are both wayyy strong. I was pretty psyched for them.

Hey did I tell you I onsighted a V9 once? I was pretty psyched.

Exactly! It was nothing more than a nice roadtrip for the kid. I hope he had fun. I see no flame, slam, or spray on the boy in either of those posts. it was my mistake to engage kevbone in discourse. Having said that, your statement above indicates a rather stagnant climbing scene, right? Everyone simply climbs at their level! Well you need to understand that to get to a certain level requires certain, how do I say it, qualities perhaps. what, you'd rather gymnastics simply stay at the level of the somersault? well a somersault is fine and dandy, but some of us want to develop say a front flip woohoo or perhaps a whatchamacallit, you know, pushing personal limits? it's kinda fun and rewarding, and this kid has done it to a high level. pretty cool if you ask me. nice try with the "he just climbs at his limit, like all of us" stuff, but that doesn't really take into account the FACT that some stuff is wayyyyyy more advanced objectively than other stuff. Yes, stuff. try climbing some harder climbs, if you still disagree. you might be required to actually learn something, about yourself, and about climbing. i hope that doesn't sound too harsh. what, me touchy?

actually i asked you WHO was spraying. I know reading comprehension is difficult for you, but if you look above, it will, I hope, be clear to you. So try it, ok?

so glassgow kiss was spraying about someone else's accomplishment? how ego-driven is that? crazy man, crazy!

i can't think of a single person that i climb with that "hates" rap.

ummmm who was spraying? i'm really trying to follow you here....

man you guys suck. unbelievable. the fact that you can't have appreciation for someone's accomplishments says volumes about you....5.9 bumblers dissing on hard climbers! too funny. (nothing inherently wrong with climbing 5.9 mind you.) i suppose it's cuz the average climber simply can't appreciate what climbing is like in the 5.14 range.... ahhh nothing like the occasional visit to cc.springer to raise the blood pressure! yeah the kid's definitely new generation, growing up with another mind-set regarding difficulty and expectation. expect warm-ups on 5.14 as a regular thing.

democrats can blame, well, the democrats on this one. gotta love the two party system.

i seriously doubt anyone is doing what reardon is doing. he's so far ahead of what anyone's ever done. if someone else was doing this shit, word would leak out. my .02 dollars.

maybe gm can hire lee iacocca.

You are a tool. are you truly as dumb as you seem?

boy i'd like to see where he pulled his stats on that one. seems a bit suspicious to say the least. as far as ceo pay goes, how would you suggest changing things? seems analogous to sports figures making so much; companies (shareholders) are willing to pay to bring in the top talent. it's not a pretty system we have in place, unbridled capitalism.

hey kevbone, STFU.

BOLT THE PYRAMIDS.

don't take sheaf stout seriously. he's just trolling (which is kinda ugly considering the subject matter), and as you have noticed, fails to reply to anything significant or factually incongruent with his assertions. oh well, that's kinda par for the course here: assert your opinions, over and over and over again, and ignore what the other person says. standard fair for politics, religion.... have fun playing your games of willful ignorance.

don't neg on him because of assumptions. from his website he seems like a cool enough dude, definitely amped (and i'm not gonna second guess his motives, which so many freely do). i found myself emailing Climbing, cuz i thought sharma getting the nod (a debate about the award itself is another issue) was a bit ridiculous.

although the audi allroad is sexy as hell....kinda low on mpg and maybe reliability.

can't go wrong with a subie forester. reliable as all hell, awd, mid to upper 20's gas milaege, room to sleep in if necessary (i'm 6'2"), easy on the eyes....

kinda like croft or hersey or bachar etal....?

First you say then you say Geez, dude, make up your mind. i was trolling for jayb, and later in the thread bemoaned the fact that my attempt elicited something far short of what i was expecting. alas! i hate having to explain something of this nature, but you were so sincere in your protestations....

backpedaling? from? if a buyer doesn't understand the life-cycle of an interest only or neg am loan, or understands yet is in denial about its impacts on future abilities to pay, or uses it in a situation where it probably shouldn't be used, then these types of loans are not a good idea. some lenders are tightening up policy, because they see the handwriting on the wall.

ahh the irony: bitching about (kind of) bitching!

i'm amused by the anger that her pretty innocuous letter is eliciting! Why the hostility?
