This thread: quickly becoming a contender for "BIGGEST CC.COM CIRCLEJERK EVER"

Hey Don, I'm not talking about the 70s, Nirvana Ridge was one of the first 5.9's in Washington in the early 60's I have an account in a VOC Journal of the 2nd or 3rd free ascent. Of note, the climber was a European student at UBC who had originally learned to climb in the Elbesandstein and Czech sandstone areas.

Yeah totally, but use a bigger one. Mine is 3/8" stock which is pretty thick and heavy. I can tell by the size of the gate to the quicklink that the one you have the pic of above, is 1/4" stock.

It's the Polish Bob generator! I have a few points of contention with Cocksucker Fucking Clownpuncher, Jr.. The full truth of my conclusion I shall develop in the course of this letter but the conclusion's general outline is that we must certainly challenge the soft bigotry of low expectations. Does that sound extremist? Is it too disreputable for you? I'm sorry if it seems that way but that's life. He can't possibly believe that everyone with a different set of beliefs from his is going to get a one-way ticket to Hell. He's atrabilious but he's not that atrabilious. Cocksucker has conceived the project of reigning over opinions and of conquering neither kingdoms nor provinces but the human mind. If this project succeeds then distasteful losers will be free to leave a generation of people planted in the mud of a balmy world to begin a new life in the shadows of particularism. Even worse, it will be illegal for anyone to say anything about how if you think that Cocksucker's adages can give us deeper insights into the nature of reality then you're suffering from very serious nearsightedness. You're focusing too much on what Cocksucker wants you to see and failing to observe many other things of much greater importance such as that it may seem difficult at first to solve the problems that are important to most people. It is. But there's something I've observed about him. Namely, he may not know how to spell "anatomicochirurgical" but he definitely knows how to inject even more fear and divisiveness into political campaigns. I've further observed that Cocksucker uses terrorism to evoke a misdirected response to genuine unresolved grievances. That's the large elephant in the room that nobody ever talks about. Nevertheless, I unequivocally claim that people really ought to start talking about it because then they'd realize that Cocksucker finds reality too difficult to swallow. Or maybe it just gets lost between the sports and entertainment pages. In either case, that fact is simply inescapable to any thinking man or woman. "Thinking" is the key word in the previous sentence. Cocksucker's backers would sooner ally with evil than oppose it. In that context, one could say that the first response to this from Cocksucker's pals is perhaps that Cocksucker's way of life is correct and everyone else's isn't. Wrong. Just glance at the facts: Anyone who hasn't been living in a cave with his eyes shut and his ears plugged knows that Cocksucker's words have merged with imperialism in several interesting ways. Both spring from the same kind of reality-denying mentality. Both subject human beings to indignities. And both concentrate all the wealth of the world into his own hands. I conclude this letter with an appropriate quote: "It would be more productive for Cocksucker Fucking Clownpuncher, Jr. to take a more diplomatic and conciliatory approach." I believe we all know who said that, don't we?

musical chairs. look who isn't sitting down. of course, every transaction has two sides. someone wins and someone loses. the role of banks and loan agents must be questioned. they loaned money to people they knew with high probability would not be able to repay it, because their competitors were also doing it. for a few years, fiscal prudence looked old-fashioned. that's bad business practice. but now, the biggest players get a taxpayer bailout because they are "too big to be allowed to fall". do you think they'll be encouraged to do the same thing next time knowing they can never truly fail?

I have the impression that Nirvana Ridge was pretty badass back in the day as one of the hardest free routes in WA when it was freed?

I bet your platinum credit cards are made out of silvery coloured plastic, poser. A real geologist would have a platinum card MADE OUT OF platinum.

I thought what made Pechosstin so much fun was knowing that the towers you climb will soon fall over like Triggerfinger.

For me the big deal is that it packs down smaller in a pack for alpine approaches. It's actually pretty much the same size and weight as the old Black Ice harness from the early 90s but way better designed.

I did Butter Brickle years ago, it was the first time I placed a Big Bro as I remember (in a hueco?)

Only on cc.com would the resident blowhards take a 15 yr old kid's clueless spray posting about sickness and turn it into a yawn-inducing rhetorical circle jerk about medical service funding and delivery models. Holy fuck! save it for C-SPAN

MEC's sold out already. Must be the cool box it comes in. []

Get a long, narrow maiilon instead of a semicircular. I found that this keeps your tie in isolated at one end and the device isolated at the other. I've been using a 3/8" stock maillon with a Ushba Basic for 5 years now and have never had it crossload using this maillon.

Back in the day with DMM 1st generation Predators we broke 2 picks in 2 hours on the Plum. They were Guy's old mixed picks he had traded to Vance though - not fresh ones. I've seen 2 parties break BD picks cragging near me in the Rockies (Heart Cr. and Johnson Canyon) and one party break a BD pick at Rambles. dates of these breaks would have been pre-2001. I finally managed to break the tip of a Quark pick earlier this winter by filing down a tooth too skinny (cheap) then pounding it into a buried rock under a coating of fluff with a full overhand swing - AFTER mixed& alpine climbing c. 3000m with it over the last few seasons. It broke off about 3mm from the end and left a flat front that I filed down and climbed more on.. Time for a new one, at $50 each they have to last.
