G-spotter

And yet, evolutionarily, better to breed with someone from far away to give your offspring a larger gene pool.

It was cold overnight, but did you know the forecast high for Saturday is +14C? It could be the warmest spot in Canada if that comes true.

Quick where's that pic of Serena?

I'm pretty light skinned for a black man.

have fun with the meter of freshiez. the climbing should be superb if you can dig down to it

Judges 15:16 And Samson said, "With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jawbone of an ass have I slain a thousand men."

The only PRIDE you follow is the Pride Parade

like AlpineDave's swivel http://www.alpinedave.com/leashless_rig.htm

Having a free-rotating attachment to umbilicals is nice whether you plan to hang on them or not (and if they are stretchy, hanging won' t do much good, anyways hanging = aid ). the old Grivel umbilical setup used to come with a swivelly thing just like this. You can buy a cheap hardware store one too.

I'm talking about to the bloodbank though, not to the handcrack.

I give blood instead of money.

you are forget teh stumptown

You could clip into one end and tie your umbilicals to the other and not worry so much about getting the umbilicals crossed up.

I bet he doesn't even tell the reader what he did with all the money he found in that briefcase.

Buy four TriCams. pinky, red, brown, blue. Spend the extra money on Rockcentrics.

Muir on Saturday

A delightful aromatic musket.

Leading the same route several times in a row, your pro placement is going to speed up not because your skills improve but because you start to remember what piece fitted where the last time. I think it would be better for you to improve your speed by placing pro on the ground as quickly as you can and then checking it for security rather than messing around solo with two different ropes. And especially falling onto some sketchy solo rig with a second second solo backup. Taking lead falls on many self-belay rigs, like on the Ushba Basic or Petzl Shunt, can cut the rope at as little as 5 kN

You are confusing traditions and skills. A tradition is an activity. A skill is one way of doing that activity. If you have a tradition of eating pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving, whether you make the pie the same way every year, or whether you update the recipe based on some pumpkin pie you enjoyed at a friend's house, or whether you eat a store bought pie one year, you still maintain the tradition of pumpkin pie eating. Same like if you have a tradition of hunting whales then what tools you use to carry out the activity do not matter, whether it's a harpoon or an anti-tank rifle. Or if you use a paddled canoe vs. a motorboat.

There are a couple great stories in ANAM about people anchoring to cars and the cars moving... skull

Isn't it also used when your the middle person tying into say a 3 person rope team? That's what the butterfly is best at. With the bowlinegiant wad of crap, you can tie directly into the harness. With the butterfly, you need two additional biners.

I don't recall this as being a technique used by people that don't know anything about gear placement, rather a technique to get faster at setting secure placements that the climber can trust. You can do that standing on the ground and not have to fuck around with two separate ropes.

It's a contest and you are losing.

So you are out there 1)rope soloing and 2)solo toproping Somehow you have the mad skillz to set up a solo toprope and rope solo rig (what are you using, clove hitches or a Soloist or what), and yet you don't know anything about gear placement. Suuuure OK. If that's you then I doubt your safety. Basically this sounds like the type of thing Jamin would dream up . Smithisheaven - try using a pad. Like you do every month.

no shit, you even type sort of like him HOWS THE WEAAAAAATHER UP THERE KNOW ANXY CAXXXNADIAN GIRLS?
