Bug

you capricious, mean, draconian moderator you So you two are in lock-step now? Don't let any run down your casted leg Porter. That would probably itch for a really long time.

Yeah. I guess you are right. It just saysthat they "were not blocking the road".

It is a good post and I agree with the assessment of American irresponsibility. But it is interesting that the prescident setting case for the National Parks limits of liability was initiated by a French woman after her French husband was killed by a buffalo. He set up his tripod very close and then started to shoot. The buffalo turned his head away from the camera so the French guy walked over, grabbed the horns, and tried to yank the buffalo back into position. He few 30 feet and had a badly torn rectum resulting in a fatality. The wife sued for not being adequately warned about the dangers of wild animals. She lost. I still wonder how that case would fare today especially if the victim was an American.

My contract was with my Urologist. No more larvae. The world is safer that way.

Sunset was sold for $13 million.

So you can smoke this stuff?

I didn't write it, but with 1000 post any modicum of serious debate had long since past. Folks needed a time out to reflect on what really mattered at that point which was post count. Uh oh. "any modicum of serious debate had long since past" this is now reason to lock a thread. How many will remain ulocked if they have to pass this test? 0 Bug - you have chosen to invest a lot of emotional energy in this here BB where the "rules", such as they exist are determined by moderators. Moderators, being human, will have a political/religious paradigm that will make it impossible for them to be impartial. Feck is guilty of impartiality, just like anyone here would be in his place - myself included. You made your point a long time ago, Feck unlocked the thread. He has power here - accept it. The moderators here have a decidedly anti-christian slant, and what they permit/prohibit as offensive is a fucking joke. Christianity is fair game, Beckey is not. Get used to it. When I joked about not ever having met Fred Beckey on a thread after it became a name-dropping "I've climbed with Fred Beckey" circle-jerk, it got stripped from the thread almost instantaneously - but hey...those are the rules. Thank you for your concern about my emotional state. Bug is an avatar. He is not me. Especially not in the mountains. While Bug says mean, rude, insensitive things here, it is really just a way to investigate some social trends. The rules as you present them are not the way we have to accept them. We just rant a little here and there, push stupid people to their intellectual limits and bend things a little at a time. Even the moderators HERE have changed over the years. Poor Feck is just a lump with a keyboard. His actions on this board just illustrate the state of affairs here and help us all to look at our own involvement. Hopefully, something about this thread has lead some people to ask, "Why am I doing this?" Anyone who posts in spray has too much free time on their hands. My work here is done. Jesus loves you Feck.

Right on. And why not? the reasons are as inimitable as each person and as ubiquitous as humanity Well put!

Very sad indeed. My condolences to the family.

Right on. And why not?

So are you saying you didn't lock the thread? Or are you saying you were going to reopen it without being poked? Or just what are we supposed to thank you for you sniveling little Jesus fart? dude, it's a goofy thread on a dumb forum. who cares if the moderator fucked with it? It's all goofy and dumb. So why post here at all? So you are OK with letting Feck's little mind control what you read here? Why roll over? Seriously, why keep posting here if Feck is going to say, "This doesn't interest me. I'm going to lock it." Feck has no sense of what it means to have an open conversation. It's his way or bullshit in his view. It seems like you would have a problem with that since you sometimes border on behavior that has been banned here in the past. But maybe you are not really into freedom. Maybe you would really like to ban or censor anyone who does not agree with you. I find many of your posts offensive but I fire back at you and assume it is all in the name of open communications. The open communication, the freedom to express ourselves completely, this is what makes it worthwhile to post and participate here at all. If you do not like a thread, don't read it. Block people who just do not interest you. But lock a thread so nobody can continue discussing the theme? Why? That question has not been answered. Feck's defensive posts are evidence to me that I am right about why he locked the thread. I think he is embarassed by his public display of narrow minded reasoning. He has had nothing tangible to say as a defense. I talk about maintaining the freedom to freely express our opinions and beliefs and he says "you're whining". If I don't call him a mental midget for this, who will? But hey, why are you still reading this dumbshit? Dude, STFU! But hey, why are you still reading this dumbshit?

But hey, why are you still reading this dumbshit?

Do cars at the end of the road prevent snow plow from turning around? That was answered in the original post. They were not blocking the snowplows.

No thanks to you Feck.

Women who choose to have a child by a sperm donation should expect to receive no support from the donor unless otherwise ageed beforehand. If this is not upheld then there is no such thing as a sperm doner. There is just mother and father who should have equal custody rights and to decisions on how the child is raised. You cannot have your cake and eat it too.

Well we can deduce that since my farts don't stink and I am not god, then Jesus' farts must not have stank either. We can conversly deduce that since you can smell Feck's farts from Florida, Satan's farts do stink.

Obama en'shallah.

I like the potential foreign relations windfall of having a Muslim in the Whitehouse. It would take a little of the bite out of the Al Quaida recruiters' tune. Especially if he is able to get us out of Iraq gracefully.

You have way too much time on your hands.

I am waiting for a big melt to move this unstable stuff off the climbing. Without that, its too dicy in the cascades for me right now. I'm going to Mission Ridge for the weekend. Why don't ya'all come over there? You can still spray from the free internet service at the Holiday Inn.

So which did you prefer, the man or the woman?
