so who's the next alpine buddy of the week? never met him, but i like schlangeschmeckerpecker.

yeaah.....i AM full of shit. never mind.

kid comes home from school one day and says to dad,"dad, i need to know the difference between 'hypothetically' and 'realistically' for school." "okay, son, go ask your mother if she would sleep with another man for one million dollars." so kid goes upstairs and asks his mom. lo and behold, she says "yes." kid tells his dad and so then dad says,"okay, son, now go ask your sister if she would sleep with a man for one million dollars." so kid goes upstairs and asks his sister. sure enough, she too says, "yes." dad says to kid,"so you see, son, HYPOTHETICALLY we're sittin on top of two million dollars. but REALISTICALLY we're living with a couple of whores."

imho, no, its not worth it. i personally am a firm believer in learning through trial and experience. you already climb sport and trad, if i were you i would drop the sport and do more trad and get on more ice and snow. log in lots of hours on easy/moderate snow slopes and get used to moving at altitude with a pack on. learn how to climb ice(NOT by paying somebody to teach you). do what you're doing now and meet some new partners, online, at the gym, wherever. just get out n climb. of course, i might just be full of shit.

hey this is a GREAT thread! almost as good as the REFLEX TESTER! keep up the good work, guys!

ooh, this is fun! great friday night activity. i got 0.16.....practice makes purfect i'm a loser.
