This is RURP: SK wrote: "and I am too bussy to post as of late" It is all relative. In SK-time, it means she took five minutes off to tinkle. RURP has spoken

This is RURP: "had many great days. made good friends "and went places I never would have found. if it were not for the mountaineers. They are some things , true. but hey . quite knocking the mountaineers. It is called being lost. I'll QUITE knocking the mountaineers but I won't QUIT knocking them because I find them to be regularly annoying. SK...Right now I am peeing on a tree as I am thinking about sex. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: This sounds like that Lambone guy again? Maybe he is trying to conquer the mighty Glacier Peak again. Sign him up with the Mountaineers. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: I will join the Mountaineers when they pry my ice axe from my cold dead fingers. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: Miss Ehmmic says: "walked up and down the corner where I thought I parked. Crossed the street to the street sign and checked that I was on the right block. Paniced because my truck was loaded with nearly all of my material possessions." My theory...the car never moved, but the girl did. Bar and darkness = confusion. Confusion leads to panic. In the scenario, I did not see any attempt to find the car the following morning when the girl is sober and there is enough light to see. That should have been the first step the next day. Instead, more anguish, phone calls, worry and so forth. I am also disturbed that she keeps nearly all her worldly possessions in her car...homeless style. This is usually not a good plan unless you are either homeless or actually on-the-road. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: The Renton granite hoax deserves an award for one of the funniest and most original concepts on this ridiculous web-site. I do not remember anything else you posted but I liked the urban crag hunt stunt so have this for being clever at least once: RURP has spoken. [ 09-12-2002, 11:07 PM: Message edited by: RURP ]

This is RURP. Jules wrote in her message: "If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went." Would you really want to spend eternity hanging out with a bunch of jackasses like those picture above????? I'll take Heaven any day over a bunch of flea-bitten, arse-kissing, drooling, trail-crapping, obnoxious, good-for-nothing pests. No wonder they eat them in Korea, although I have a hard time being convinced that they are even worth cooking. RURP has spoken. P.S. They DO bite.

This is RURP: This guy here looks dumb as a post. Maybe he will go to Marymoor and "shit on your tarp". RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: I have never had horse crap stick to my shoes and make my car stink and my life miserable like that dog stuff. Ever had dog crap stuck to your shoe? That is a reason enough for me not to own one. And then the dog owners take their precious children on a walk so they crap on other people's lawn so they can step in it. Horse-crap: it's a bunch of lawn-trimmings, grass and such and is a heck of a lot easier to be around that a BIG STEAMING PILE OF STINKING DOG-DOO!!!! - RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: Mr. Jim: "Got to jump to the teachers defense here rurp. You got it wrong." Sorry, Mr. Jim, but I disagree. 1) teaching is not that hard, I have done it. 2) you do not have to be all that bright to be a teacher, just a step or two ahead of the students, for example, third grade. 3)many teachers don't "bust their tails" and if they are doing a little overtime, maybe their planning isn't so good or they are assigning too much homework...and a lot of salary jobs require that you finish what has to be done, even if it's unpaid overtime so, so what? 4) Most people with Ph.D.'s do not teach in a public elementary, jr. high or high school. They teach in a college or university where the pay is often LESS than what you cited. 5) I don't know where you live, but $56 K is pretty darn good money for a relatively easy job with massive time off each year. (And it's not just the summer, it's two weeks at Christmas, etc.) 6) $23 K ain't bad for a starting salary...again, not working all year, and the salary jumps up quickly after a few years. 7) top out at $56 K? Add the vacation time and the benefits and these characters are making probably close to $75 K. 8) There are plenty of teachers who suck...they can't teach, and they are paid like the rest. There are few quality control standards. 9) If you are in teaching for the money, than your motives are wrong, but the money isn't bad if this is the "job you love" like it is supposed to be. You're being paid to do what you love so you should be happy. 11) No one keeps these teachers from getting a summer job and making even MORE money! 12) Paying teachers more money won't necessarily attract better people into the profession. The system has first to change in big ways. There needs to be a way of weeding out the many teachers that suck and replacing them, otherwise the worthless teachers get their pay raise with the rest of them. 13) Teaching our kids is the noblest profession so we should pay them like superathletes? How about being a good parent so your kid doesn't cause problems in school and make the teachers nervous? No one pays you for that and it IS the most important thing. Teachers need to realize that they have a great thing going and quit trying to fool the public about how rough they have it. There are loads of college graduates in jobs they require a lot more for a lot less compensation. There are loads of corporate employees who make less than that top number, work more than 40 hours per week, and if they're lucky, they'll get two or three weeks of vacation a year after ten or fifteen years. Just another perspective. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: DON'T FORGET TO BRING THE TARPS "TO LAY SHIT OUT ON"!!! - Rurp has spoken.

This is RURP: "I looked into my sock, and I found a piton." It was probably mine. Give it back. Shampoo and condition? You didn't know that? Don't ask me about my colon. It is not your business. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: You want to punch a clown? Which one of these do you want to take on first, big shot! And the "SturmAbteilung" can talk to some of my friends: Special Treat for Nazis! RURP has spoken.

This is RURP "Who's going to play me?" "No, I want so and so to play me!" This topic is NARCISSISM UNCHAINED! RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: "the dude just probably needed his pampers changed cause he got rained out of his latest alpine suffer fest with his 2 days off." Boo-hoo! Only gets two days off, just like most people. Sounds like a whiney school teacher...they tell you how "little" they are making until you realize they only work 3/4's of a year, get the lovely summer off, plus two weeks at Christmas, assorted other breaks, great benefits, and after a few years of entry level pay, they do quite well. You want to be a climbing bum? Don't work in a shop, be a school teacher. That F.F. place...I have been in there three times and will not go back. Each time, they acted inexperienced, or I could not find someone who even pretended as if they were interested in selling anything, and/or they didn't have it. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: "A lot of us climbers have tons of gear and not a lot of extra cash." Maybe it is because you spend it on a lot gear you do not need and then want to swap it! Most climbers I know are ably employed. "we could lay shit out on tarps" yah...we will all come to see that! RURP has spoken

This is RURP: That guy said: "RURP...you're bein' a bird beak tool on this...Kurt Smith has put up some pretty wild/dangerous trad routes in his day..." Big Deal....so have a lot of guys. Groupies, I say. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: I just read the above describing this Mr. Kurt Smith as: "someone who has the whole world open to him". He is some sort of sporty climber and he has "the whole world open to him"!!!! This cascadeclimbers.com is beginning to sound like some sort of odd Dungeons and Dragons fantasy role-playing game, with the dungeon being in the basement of your mother's house! RURP has spoken.

This is RURP. You guys sound like a bunch of pathetic groupies! Where will Mr. Kurt Smith climb? Who cares...get your own lives. "Hello! I wonder what "Chris" and "Lynn" (etc. and whoever the favorite cereal of the week is), is having for breakfast...I am going to get some of that too!" Whatever happened to Mr. "Scott" Franklin and Mr. "Christian" Griffith? You call them by their first-names alone because if we are hip and in the know we can do that. Like "Cher". There are two answers to this "important" whatever happened question: The first is, they went to sport-climbing oblivion. The second is: who cares?! RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: This whole challenge things is LAME!!!!! It reminds me of a some juvenile high school kid saying "I bet you can not drink 12 beers...tee hee!" Grow up! RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: "why is gym climbing any different to sport climbing outdoors than the husky wall is to climbing on real boulders outdoors? hmm??? (some of you just aren't getting it!)" I can answer this question because I "get it". The answer is: there is no difference because THEY ALL SUCK!!! RURP has spoken.

Zeh RURP: Mah hahoo? Attah katav holandi o kiswahili? RURP m.daber.

This is RURP: My favorite sport climb is the one where all of the hangers are missing and the befuddled sport-climbers scratch their heads and then decide to go wind-surfing instead. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: It's called the Bowling Ball... or, Six-pack Grip Not recommended in the mountains. And quit talking about hookers. RURP has spoken.

This is RURP: "pope" he says: "Three nights on a big mountain and a boy becomes a man...Did you try the line where you suggest that you'd like to be the lunch meat in an alpine sandwich?" Here, Mrs. Rabinowitz demonstrates the proper technique. Take note for your next "unintended" bivouac. RURP has spoken. [ 08-05-2002, 04:29 PM: Message edited by: RURP ]
