Being fat and ugly has served me well over the years. I wouldn't want to get the sort of attention that our fine filly Anna gets anyway!I would think it would get old.

Hey, I don't think it's very nice to refer to Anna as 'Dead Horse quarters"!!

Hi, checking in after a long day in the salt mines. Just wanted to thank all of my well-wishers for keeping my name in the news while I was slaving away. I need to get a different job so I can do this all day on someone else's dime.

Great, it's a 20 y.o. Harmon.

That could happen. Need to consult with my people but it's a possibility. I do have to work until really late Friday night unfortunately, so don't hold yer breath!

My stupid mom will kill me if I bail, it's totally not worth it to piss off a MOM....but I am going to be free next weekend if there's any sort of mischief to be made then....

OK, I just (finally) got my disc in the mail, and it is Eeexcelleeeenttt!! Send Off White a buck, and all day long you'll have good luck!

I'm going to try to not do this on Saturday night at the Harbor Club wearing my best dress at my cousin's stupid wedding. Think my entire family would notice if I didn't show up? Stupid stupid wedding!!!

Petey is making perfectly good sense. I get his drift. My $.02 on soloing: If someone is doing it, whether I know them or not, I have to leave the scene. It absotively gives me the hibbie-jibbies once they get above, say 20 feet.

none other than the mighty Poptart....but WHO IS Poptart at the moment, hmmm.... and then later on, whilst reminiscing about some good times at band camp, they realized.....

Uh oh, looks like someone gave oo9 Poptart's password!

Now Off, it's my understanding that you have a boulder in your back yard....so, if that rumor is true, maybe you *should* have PC at your place sometime! Hey, where's my damn CD, BTW? I sent my dollar, and I DEMAND my tuneage!!

OK, you guys reailze it's almost 5PM on Tuesday, and this topic of national importance has not been broached. I'm busy this week, but if there's going to be a Pub Club tonight, somebody ought to pipe up.

No, actually a lot of us 'left wing f#cks' are not hippies at all.

Oh, lord. Thread drift! Thread drift!

I know we did this one before, but it got lost in Cyberspace and I forgot most of the good ones. So......what's your favorite thing to bring into the woods that is not absolutely necessary, but makes life easier in the woods? I'll throw a couple out to get things going: Pack Towl. Just a small piece of this super absorbent fabric works miracles in soaking stuff up, cleaning vital regions, and being a fluffy potholder. Better than a hankie for a lot of jobs. I don't bring a whole entire one with me, more like a half of one. Powdered toothpaste. Easier than the regular stuff to pack, and when after a trip or two ir gets clumpy, toss it and start over. Less foamy/messy in the BC too. I figure my $3 thing of dry toothpaste will last me 5 seasons. Butter. Bring a pat, and be happy that your food was so tasty you didn't need it. Same with a tiny bottle of hot sauce, like the kind you get in an MRE. OK, your turn!

No worries, Dwayner. For next year's trip, you'll be able to apply for a permit for many of the popular crags in the Icicle. Permits will be required from May 15-October 15, and will be issued by the Leavenworth RD in March. Application deadline is March 1. Permits will run $3.00 per climber per day, and climbers will wear a permit tag on their harness in addition to their parking permit. One permit maximum per person per season. Any climber caught without permit will be subject to fine and will be required to leave the area immediately. Ought to help keep the crowds under control.

..rather challenging and intelligent woman who brought him to another social plateau. Cavey and Fence Sitter than scratched themselves and belched, while Trask phoned the escort service, which was the only place any of them could get dates. Fortunately for the other two, Trask had his handy credit card. Allison, meanwhile, had removed the last of the splinters, donned her shiny new Action Suit, and flew to her next engagement. She is currently living in Palm Springs with newly-divorced Brad Pitt, and has been seen at the fashionable Las Cazuelas, among other places, sporting a rather impressive new nose job. Friends near the source say, " it's about time!" Meanwhile, back at Camp Misery, Trask, Fence, and Cavey are contemplating their next move.....

....my estranged husband, Captain Caveman, came upon us, and well, I guess I had some 'splainin' to do. When he asked me what EXACTLY was going on, I said, meekly.....

Filled with the entire contents of my pack after my good friend Trask dropped me into that DAMN DC.....and that moaning was not in pleasure, you idiot. So then, having run away in fear, he.....

...I started cwying wike a wittwe baby, because DC REALLY HURTS when you get it in your.....

Well I was going to spice it up a little with some fiction, but my version simply restates the current policy for other areas nearby, and in the same RD, where there is climbing. there's no reason that the canyon couldn't someday be regulated just like much of the nearby Wilderness!

Fiction: Anything by E. Annie Proulx, John Steinbeck, E. Hemingway or Pam Houston. A Prayer for Owen Meany, John Irving I would like to weigh in that Tom Robbins blows goats. Pluse he doesn't write good female characters, and the only guy who can get away with that is that genius pig, David Mamet. Non-Fiction: In Sam We Trust-you'll never shop at Wal-Mart again Fast Food Nation-you'll never look at a Big Mac the same way again Brothel-you'll never look at your neighborhood cathouse the same way again Nickel and Dimed-you'll never look at an underpaid service worker the same way again Celebration-Disney does New Urbanism Why Americans hate poor people-a little dry but a good follow up on Nickel and Dimed Reading books about what they called 'social studies' in Junior High is of a particular interest to me.

I think you can see where I was this weekend from Iceguy's Thompson photo. Cool! What a weekend it was!
