Nice REI keychain thermometer!

What CPOLy said. I put 3' tear in my BD pants and sewed them shut with a wide and tight zig zag stitch. Still going strong after 2 years.

I don't notice a difference if I'm climbing 5.7. Otherwise I totally suck.

Zowie! That's a pretty good winger.

Hope he didn't come back with any "souvenirs"!

I was leading that first pitch once, and had my belayer anchored to the detached flake. Halfway up I noticed 3 of my 4 nuts that I had placed had pulled out and were resting nicely against my friends belay device

If we weren't meant to eat animals, then steak wouldn't taste so good.

I'll second that

Went to try to find the trail this last weekend and ended up crashing around a bunch of fallen trees and wasting a lot of time.

How'd it go? I didn't get your PM till I got back

skiing.

Are you talking about crampons for your boots, or ski crampons that will work for tele gear? If it's the latter, I'm still searching for a good solution!

Just came from there. A bunch of Makalus are left. A few Lhotses and a few more Nepal Extremes (picked some up for $105!) A bunch of Megas, Cliffs, Katanas and Muiras are left for rock shoes.

huh... i was a university scholarship athlete... and i still think pro sports are retarded. Getting a free team gym bag for being on the Ultimate Frisbee club team doesn't count.

jerky and horsecock. don't forget the Gu.

She was enamored with low angled slab man, and spent many a night fantasizing about him; her hips moving in time with his rest step. However despite her best efforts she could not shake "glissading in shorts man". She knew he was no good for her, yet he still visited her in her most vivid dreams.

I'm with MattP on this one. You don't need a bivy unless it's raining.

It doesn't say if they block UV rays or not. If they do, that's a great idea

Whu? If she's at basecamp, that would be ANOTHER reason to climb Everest.

It was a pleasant sunny day for opening day at Safeco field. Even though the M's got shelled, there's just no beating the first game of the season at a ballpark with your good buds. BTW: everyone who got picked last in gym class - make yourselves known by bashing on pro sports

My god she's hot.

Sick Day was funny too

Another vote for the 1st and 2nd. I'm 97.2% there.

Great effort!
