well shit, it's on the internet, so it's gotta be true?

an initiative/ballot measure has the same power as a congressionaly enacted law, and like those laws, can contain a sunset provision or not (usually not) - but the congress can always pass new laws to alter existing legislation, including such measures, leaving the people only the recourse to repeat the initiative - congress can also pretty effectively fail to fund a measure too, assuming it needs cash to function forking checks n' balances...

[TR] Dynaaaamiiite Cave - A Baker's Eleven 11/11/2011

interesting that the two of us were at opposite ends of the dog-spectrum on the same day - condolences - i'm sure you'd have rather been able to make the what-have-you was it that gold n' white owl w/ the huge face? saw that guy this summer and was quite impressed, the only time i'd seen one out there. -
no different free vs aid - they love pin scars but generally are just as good, if not better, than standard nuts in all spots - expensive, but they're all i use now.

jesus-fuck, fall rains w/o fail, week-end or work-wracked days all wrecked by the falling damps - time to foresake the topside for the dyanamite again, before the snows sequestrate that subterranean pleasure passage and leave me nothing but aid-climbing in common trashbags i suppose i coulda spent another saturday at home, but the recent invasion of a puppy into my previously at best moderately tranquil family-scene has me pissed no end, so off i went, pausing at the burger king in recently re-fashioned camas for oil-cans of fosters ("it's auuuuuuuustralian fore budweiiiser!") and to secure legal council, who piled into my ride w/ bins of bullshit bent space towards bingen, cruising through the incessant cloud-murk, past beacon all shrouded in mist - the navicomputer rumbling around on the dashboard called for questionable turns, but i don't quarrel w/ technology, man, so we had a pleasant ramble through fuck-knows-where through the killing fields of fall before eventually being shat out on a recognizable road no snow yet, but the last mile of the track muddy as all hell - couple cars already in the lot w/ our crack'o'afternoon arrival, so we were assured of company into the first passage after 1, spent 4 hours underground, an easy pace, stumble-fucking through the sterile, darkened rubble-strewn wasteland betrayed by my recent coleman-lantern purchase - never had one before, nor mucked around w/ one once and managed to forget matches or extra mantles so promptly fucked it all up - is it dangerous to burn a coleman w/ one mantle broken through at the bottom, venting a great propane jet towards the center? sure seemed so, so it got set at the cave mouth and we managed w/ double headlamps and an led-lantern not much else worth mentioning, 'sides them boy-o's we eventually made the awkward acquaintance of had a really nifty set of speicialized caving ladders, 2 thin steel wires w/ plastic rungs, 30-some odd feet long but w/ eyes on the end for clamping on another set, should you have them - woulda made handling the jugging transition from free-hanging to surmounting the lip more pleasant, but as it turned out we didn't much need it as some enterprising parcel of fools managed to cart a couple long timbers all the way down to the crystal ballroom, along w/ handfuls of spikes to hammer in hand and foot-holds, such that you can circumvent the hard-part while still clapped on to the fixed line fun n' games n' pouring rain on the way-back, the red devil's engine rattling like slow-death, starved of oil - looking forward to another return and actually getting to the bottom of the thing... -
don't know 'bout utopias, but pretty sure i'd be happy to share a desert island w/ you, boy-o

i love how, should sherlock holmes be watching, he could easily guess what time of night it was from my wine bottle on the concrete bumper there at cascade pass

no argument from me - certainly a case though of were the symptom (being in a fucked-up family) can easily be mistaken for the cause (living in a fucked-up community)

the modern mantra might run more like "wal-mart greeters of the world unite" as the economy sure hasn't offered that many other solutions for the down-sized n' downtrodden... FOUR MORE YEARS! sheeeit, romney wins and the main difference'll will only be the greeters won't be able to get health-care...
