  1. I will tell you over a few beers in a month and some change. Deal? Deal.
  2. I'm going in to Colchuck lake. I'll be exploring the boulder field in the basin above the pond by Colchuck lake. The boulders are huge and stacked three high in places. A guy went missing up by Colchuck a few years ago and I would just like to eliminate that boulder field as a possibility. I could use a backup with solid anchor and jumaring skills. PM me if interested.

    Why can't we all just get along?
  4. I would love to see Cheney in jai but this does not seem like the way it is going to happen. "The indictment has not been seen by a judge, who could dismiss it. The grand jury in Willacy County, in the Rio Grande Valley near the U.S.-Mexico border, said Cheney is "profiteering from depriving human beings of their liberty," according to a copy of the indictment obtained by Reuters. The indictment cites a "money trail" of Cheney's ownership in prison-related enterprises including the Vanguard Group, which owns an interest in private prisons in south Texas." The Vanguard group is huge. I have a mutual fund with them. Why have I not been indicted? Inquiring minds want to know.

    I'm thinkin Darwinism has a lein on these folks.
  11. You obviously were not the youngest of many in your family.
  12. I have a pair of these or actually, the next model lighter, from five years ago. http://www.moosejaw.com/moosejaw/shop/product_Asolo-Mens-Fugitive-GTX-Boot_88515_10208_10000001_-1_ I like them a lot.They take strap on crampons well and climb rock pretty well as approach boots go. Like the review at the bottom, I bought em and hiked up Rat creek to do the Mole and hiked back out. No hot spots or blisters. I have a wide foot.

  14. These all look good for different reason that you need to assess. Vasque Zephyr Tech. Basically a high top tennis shoe but with better soles for protecting bottom of foot. Would not be very good for climbing (3rd class and up) Vasque Zephyr II. Similar to above but with more weight and warmth. Still not a climbing boot (but maybe that doesn't matter to you? Except that you said in you initial post that you are looking for a "Mountaineering boot"). Zamberlan Vioz GT GORE-TEX. Just a little heavier and warmer but still not a boot designed for climbing. La Sportiva Trango Trek 2 GORE-TEX. Very similar to the Zamberlan. La Sportiva Trango Extreme Evo Light GORE-TEX. This is an excellent climbing boot. Might be a little stiff for long hiking. Also look at these, Scarpa Charmoz GTX Mountaineering Boots http://www.rei.com/product/748422 The difference I am pointing out between the Scarpas I listed and the La Sportivas you listed is the toe welt. The La Sportivas you listed will take a neumatic crampon. The Scarpas I listed will not take neumatic crampons, just strap-on crampons. Strap ons are great for general glacier and lower angle snow and ice. If you get into steeper ice you will want neumatics because they become a rigid part of your boot whereas strapons almost always move a little bit. - slippage between the crampon and boot = not good. Both boots have a steep welt and consistent tread to make edging on rocks easier. The first few boots you listed have big isolated lugs on the soles in some cases and in all cases have too many rounded corners making standing on a thin edge on a rock more difficult.

    What page is that on in "freedom of the hills". It's right after the part that explains how to extract an ice ax from your anus. Keep looking.

    Abortion

    The Bible says, "You will know them by their fruits." Which track is most effective at decreasing the overall number of abortions? Teaching abstention, eliminating birth control education programs, and locking up the birth control? Or teaching people how to have protected sex and provide easy access to birth control? It seems like a no-brainer to me. And once you have them trusting you, you can start teaching them about the other things you beleive. In the end, the choice is theirs. No one can force morality upon another. Our Example exemplified leading by example and using unconditional love as the primary tool. Cheers!

    We did an extremely similar thing wherein we played Batman and Robin. The "car" chase scenes we did out on real streets were a h00t! Yeah cool. But we weren't gay.

    Hey Sobo

    I don't want to hear what you're touchin. Specilly if it anin't attatched no more. I can't touch 'em. My wife keeps them in a jar on the mantle. They've been there a while now. I get to see them every day, though, when I walk through on my way to the kitchen. You shoulda told me that BEFORE I got married.

    My hs buddies and I did a freeze frame movie of us sitting on our buts and driving around the inside of the school like we were in race cars. It turned out pretty cool.

    "Dull, dull,dull,dull,dull," should be dull, not emphatic imo. The girl under the pit should spew pea soup. The climber should talk normally, like it's no big deal, like he is just too cool.
