you don't have to be a tea-partier to snooze through your social studies classes, i've found

pictures speak better than words, yet i had no camera - the route stills exists of course, but the first pitch is now about 30 feet shorter, and the old anchor bolts are now curious to behold, all alone on a blank face and impossible to get to - the 6 inch off-width thats the the 2nd pitch is now considerably longer, and features much more of said crack at its start by far the biggest thing i've yet seen come down in my 10 years out there

10/11 - #44 - epic fall beacon day - WRONG GULL IS GONE - the pillar damn near the size of a trailer that you used to jam to get up to the anchors below the off-width came out yesterday sometime, knocking down the massive old-growth tree below it and forever altering the trail - a fine little boulder for the kids to clamber on lots of rockfall throughout the morning - nastia thrown at wind surfer for aid-testing - many beers - dogs and kids and hard-core grown ups - jim and kenny - chemtrails, johnson, shakespeare, fucking kennedy - good times on the tumble back - now off for a birthday feast, and a monkey face party on the 'morrow

you must be optimistic this here gubimint shutdown's gonna end soon?

w/ friends like these...

10/8 - 43rd beacon-wrangling day for the year - big fall in the gorge, the trees grown gaunt and dead-orange - damp, dull air on the evening orbit out, my head ringing w/ union-noise, deep wondrous woe - krazy late to met long-suffering kenny - up the corner in a damp, damp tizzy - S1+/2 conditions on the corner - a nut rescue - booty cordellete, cha-ching! babylyon fading, i fumble back in darkness gut-hungry to sad tales - dogs run demented, poor pat sure needs hisself a holy synod sometime soon

wonder if the same fellers have a giant spray circle around their toilets too? their girlyfriends hidey-hole?

excellent link up - more pts for swappng out the original picnic lunch wall for free lunch though wasn't nearly so sun-soaked last time i was on that side of stein's....

what's more american than being un-american? anti-establishment minded 'mericans are certainly as old as the republic itself - poor ole'thomas paine's a fine example (don't know if he wore crocs - he did hang out in france for a long time, which does set off most folks gaydar )

fabulous shoes!

hopefully it'll be a long life and i'll summon the furies to Force the Passage

pretty certain ole'dave needs to hang on to his

where'm i taking it?

snaffles MUST pay. how long you reckon the drive from portland?

spray weren't dead, just sleep'n

You obviously care enough to put it on a public form for discussion. Just say'n. I thought you guys were quicker than this. What's my "point?" i never met anyone who described ole-betard-dave as "quick" who gives a shit if john wayne was gay? regardless, if he was, it is funny, given that he played characters that were unambiguously NOT ghey

i can live w/ that - i've always said "i don't think i'm gay, but maybe i just ain't met the right man yet" - my wife has never been impressed w/ this, but then i've never trusted her strange attraction to madonna

10/4 - day 41 - keeeerist, the fall fell down like a fucking bear trap on the balls some time ago it seems, and awful early too - nastia a bit waylaid by portland traffic - beacon's base looking a good bit like the argonne after old alvin york's big day - blasted tree debris all about the forest floor, the remnants of last weekend's big windstorm and great goddamn deluge - fresh broken blocks - oozing gashes on the upper edges of trees on grassy ledges - still a bit damp but it'll be a good weekend for clambering - we did the bastard warrior, finishing up just as dusk descended 10/5 - douglas adams day! - winter's upon the wall, albeit its adolescent, easy face - pure sunlight streaming through but somewhat weak - strong winds - battle debris from the week gone by all astrew - 3 laps on the corner then home for an afternoon w/ the kids n' wife n' parents

i had sex w/ a woman once wearing only crocs - does that make me half gay?

isn't tea the beverage of choice for euro-fag-liberal-surrender monkeys? i'd think good red-blooded freedom-defenders would prefer to be the "coffee party" - or would that be wierd, since not one coffee-colored person would actually be in the party? and sure, i know what you're thinking - there's ONE dark face in that crowd! but if you look more carefully, you can clearly see she's lost

george takei is the gayest man to ever emerge from the land of the geisha, and it's a well known fact he n' john wayne shared a trailer in the steamy environs of fort benning during the filming of "the green berets"

"john wayne's not dead, he's sleeping"

i've been working on this idea for a master's thesis in poli-sci, essentially that you can take the pulse of the american conservative population by counting the # of titties that appear in the daily "features and faces" panel of fox's website - there's usually 12-14 panels, and the typical day sees an average of 3.2 panels sporting hawties - this past tuesday at one point it was the highest number i've yet recorded, 10 when primates get all excited, how they do like to pound the pud
