Do I get the assist?

Yeah, the Buckaroo might be a little small for us...especially after seeing the turnout the other night.

Canada is losing one if its only things it can brag about having other than hot chicks in Vancouver and Arcteryx: Magnetic North Leaving Canada

A penguin was driving through Arizona one day when his car started spewing all sorts of smoke into the air. He sputtered into a gas station and asked for help. The mechanic said it'll take him an hour do diagnose the problem, and in the meantime the penguin can walk down the street to ice cream shop and get a cone. The penguin got a vanilla ice cream cone, but since he couldn't use his tongue, he kept poking his beak into it. An hour later he walks back to the mechanic and asks what was wrong with his car. "It looks like you blew a seal," the mechanic says. The penguin replies, "No, that's just the ice cream."

This thread reminds me of when my friends and I are riding in a car and it's been quiet for too long. Someone has to say something just to say something. So here's my contribition: "something"

Who cares if they work for BD after they get out? Like you said before, they might've just gotten busted for smoking dope. "Prisoners not being able to form a union" is easily one of the silliest comments I've read on this board ever. That was great

I've used them in the past and have no complaints. They're a good deal for the price. quote: Prison labor is all about the lack of choice. The prisoners dont get to choose to be hired by Omega. They get, well, not exactly forced, but... Hey Dru, they made the choice to break into a car and get their ass thrown in jail. It's either this or license plates, and this world needs more carabiners, not cars [ 03-20-2002: Message edited by: Figger Eight ]

Owl and Thistle. I'm there.

Malice, trickery, corruption, bribery, and "a lot of other bad things" are part of the reason I'm here. And I vote Owl and Thistle.

You're right, RMI can charge as much as they want and still book all of their trips. In the five years I've been dealing with them they've raised they're prices over $200 bucks. As far as defacto police: I've never been up that route without seeing a ranger either on the trail or at the shack. It is still the default route on the mountain and you can see all sorts of weirdness up there on any give day.

I just got done watching the 9-11 documentary and all I have to say is: We cannot drop too many bombs on those terrorist motherf'ers.

Crazy Woman StoryI love what her lawyer says at the end.

If enough monkeys were typing on a keyboard at the same time, eventually they would come up with a Shakespeare play. Is that how it goes? Anyways, I don't care how people spell...I spell AlpineK: P - U - S - S - Y

Mystic Nacho is actually a bright guy. He just get's bored when he runs out of his hamsters. Damn, I missed it by one. Damn AlpineK... [ 03-08-2002: Message edited by: Figger Eight ]

This post brought to you by number SEVEN. 18 more to go. Geez I'm bored.

Shut-up Eddie, you puss.

Twenty Seven! Damn. [ 03-07-2002: Message edited by: Figger Eight ]

25?

I saw a guy head up the mountain from Camp Muir in cowboy boots. This was after I saw a bunch of Secret Service guys usher Al Gore off the mountain. That was a weird day.

25...Right.....NOW! crap. [ 03-06-2002: Message edited by: Figger Eight ]

I agree...guiding services on Rainier has reached critical mass, but Eric is right - there is much more at stake here than RMI, Mountain Madness, etc. etc. If you start allowing more private businesses at Paradise, Longmire and Sunrise those two lane roads may become four and parking lots increase in size (there is an overcrowding problem already). RMI guides get a bad rap, but realize they have a tough job to do. They aren't allowed the comfort of weeding clients out prior to the trip. One of my bud's put it this way, "Every morning I wake up knowing six people will try to kill me today." I have issues with RMI as well, but it's misdirected blame if you're pointing fingers at guides for policy issues.

Hmmm...looks like good crack climbing...
