Keyser Söze

wayne told a story a long time ago about doing just that, i think though it was on the now-verbotten east side - seem to recall them do progessively bigger n' bigger swings until someone ate it into the trees at the end of the arc

i, for one, am horrified by the lack of helmets on these gentlemen

the problem w/ jack london, like most philosophers, is that he's dead

i still fondly recall being denied life insurance the day after a trip w/ you to ole'rocky butte

hasn't happened for me, but then i'm a simple soul, dog knows...

good enough excuse for the latte-negro to haul his ass back up there for trip#4 of the year

what's keeping you out of the market ole'boy?

the eiger santorum

you convinced your neighbors yet though?

eleanor roosevelt? seriously, what am i lying to myself about again? climbing's dangerous, duh, but that doesn't mean the risks can't generally be managed, that other things are necessarily less like to kill me, or that i'd be happy any other way...

yer developing a serious problem... and wtf, 3 tr's for the same thing!?! come on now...

where are the snowdens of yesteryear?

Sssshhhhhh! Quiet! Negotiations in progress! God forbid documents submitted to public officials should be public. And lawdy, we's all knoes dems officials is so easily confused. And if they're easily confused, god only knows just how confusing it would all be for the poor average cc.com climber who makes it out to Beacon a few times a year but doesn't know the secret handshake and aren't part of the club - definitely no need for them to see or comment on any of the details. Sigh. I always did wonder exactly what 'formal' meant. Same as it ever was. All in all a proud display of openness and the true potential of social media. Ya, ubetcha. :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: if the s side suddenly opens please let me know so i can drop m'cock n' grab m'socks

it's hard not to be an asshole, no matter where ye're from - not certain how many friends i had when i was an out-lander who weren't that said, the 2 new-englanders i spent time w/ were in alaska at the time and we laughed n' smoked like relentless happy morons for a week w/o incident

sole fatality i've seen out there in a decade is an old-codger w/ rmi dropping deed on the disappointment cleaver - shoulda died meself at least twice in that time, once alpine, once big-wall'n - long as i don't die of pneumonia or boredom...

seems like skiing's way more likely to leave you w/ a social disease
