It's your aura. Go to the expo and get it photographed. http://www.bmse.net/bmse2008/expodetails.php?expo_id=107 You'll see what I mean.

Where are the seven kids?

My boss had one. White plastic about one third the size of a average sized laptop. I played with it for a few hours and didn't like it much. Monochromatic screen was too simple. Maybe I'm spoiled but i would just as soon have a small laptop.

That's why I volunteer in my kids' classrooms. I make sure the teachers have the time to cover what they need to. I always see about a dozen other parents volunteering also. It's a great way to improve your kids' education.

Please. No details. I was just thinking that all that wasted energy could be hooked up to a generator somewhere. Or maybe even take the garbage out.

Have you noticed you are the only one on this thread? PM me if you don't understand.

Hey Doc, are these hemeroids?

Thread drift. Read the stories. Look at the pics. Take the vacation.

I won't call you cute if you won't call me old. Just keep posting.

It was +18F in the Missoula valley two nights ago. It has been cold for awhile.

They probably don't have as many assholes like you talking about murdering people like it is some kind of joke. whaaa? dude, the germans invented dark humor! Ant Face! That's Herr Ant Face to you T. Ivan, history will repeat itself. :[]

It will improve your helitosis.

Great. Still talking about each other's poop. I guess I didn't miss much. You know it will be the same discussion in the assisted living facility you end up in? Branch out now.

Bill. Aren't you married? She is cute tho..... Hey girl, I remember when there weren't any girls in JT in the winter between college breaks. And then they were only sunbathing. I remember when the definition of a climber without a gf was "homeless". I remember being homeless a lot. (insert whiny voice) "You're never here." Or my favorite, "You can buy a f'n rope but you can't take me out on a date!?" True story. No brainer. This is all to say, after all those testosterone ridden years, "WELCOME". Love your writing. Oh, I'm married too.

Well it's agood thing there's a democrat in office then. Cause under the last three republican presidents 1.government spending went up dramatically. 2. income taxes on laborers went up 87% more than for those making $150 K or better (in the last 8 years). 3. "reduce government regulation of the economy," DOH! you got me there. But did you watch the news lately? 4. The money supply increased during both of GW's two terms.

Put in lots of pro. One of them is bound to hold a fall. Put quick draws or runners on each peice so they don't yank out in a fall or when you climb past them. Tale lots of qd's or rabbit runners or both.

PM Sent.

Either of the last two posts sound good. The latter only if you are truely able to cruise the ridge below the gendarme AND don't spend too much time on the gendarme and the pitch above it. I'm remembering that you said you are a 5.8 leader. This suggests that the gendarme pitch might be a mind blower. MAJOR exposure in a remote setting. Just a thought. Anyway, you have plenty of beta and will love the route.

Hey, my favorite climbs are the ones with bivies (epics). I like having a small pad and bag along too tho.

The gendarme is spectacular. But,....I suspect you are going to epic. Nothing wrong with that. Epic is my middle name. With an epic in mind, water becomes the problem. If you find no snow on the ridge below the gendarme, you will probably want to rap into the gulley to get snow or ice to melt. Take a pocket rocket and a small pot.

Way to get on it guys!

ok... Actually, This was not meant as a joke per se. However, it will undoubtedly be seen as a joke by many here. Be that as it may, anybody is welcome there. Porn stars, drug addicts, climbers, petty theives, parents who steal their childrens' Halloween candy, atheists, you name it. No hard sell. Nobody knockin on your door. If you are at all curious, drop by for a free cup of coffee, loud music, and a casual attitude.

Funny stuff. Funny stuff.
