read a history of 19th century china the other day - holy shit they got the slap around by us barbarian bitches - really left me rooting for the bastards - jesus, if i was chinese i'd have a huge chip on my shoulder...and a small penis in my pants too i reckon.

reading relationship books is roughly the same as reading stereo instructions

that would be p2 of the dutchman there bill - the bears in heat crack is plain to the left of that - that p2 of the dutchman is a much faster clean aid pitch, quite long - there's a wee bit that is very small clean aid/birdbeaks, but at that pt its very contrived NOT to go up bears a couple feet and then step back in who's gonna be out there in the slop this weekend?

feel free to enligthen me then - i've heard the term before but don't know much, other than that they're supposed to penetrate body-armor - what is such ammo, how is it different from other types, and why/why not shoudl it be banned?

"bible spice" = first great gut-laugh of the day

those central column aid-routes take a long time - they're all long and have very few quick n' easy n' solid placements - go get after smooth dancer and it's like that, starting from the ground!

As an energy source for producing power to the grid, it's probably the most sustainable one we have at present. plus, re: "we still don't know what to do w/ the waste", the storage solution is actually pretty simple - pour nevada a tall glass of shut the fuck up (okay, sure, harry reid probably will need to have croaked before that keg can get tapped) then use yucca mtn

all we are is dust in the wind dude jeebus, how long did ya'll spend on that pitch? when it suddenly became dark in the video i grew concerned for you boys safety did you use any of that iron plaid, or is it clean? i need to borrow those ladders of yours sometime and give'me a test drive - they look fawk'n nifty.

linky - don't tell choada boy a far more important technology than what capt. kirk was so concerned w/ recreating

cannibalism sure seemed a sustainable business practice in texas chainsaw massacre - so long as the highway don't close down...

if i was transported back to 100,000 BC i'd likely spend all my time trying to recreate the adult beverage industry from memory

that'd be crazy to free but not hard for the hardmen for sure (powderhund would dig that fucking thing!). for the mortals, freeing past the hanging anchor is more conceivable, but holy shit falling onto several of those hangers is almost too hideous to contemplate

dood, they make a pill for that these days larry!

i've always been a cat person - probably explains why cats piss me off

Which one? none of 'em, of course - don't you know i'm a big, dumb teddy bear who thinks we should just kill our enemies w/ love?

my tr from last january has good pix n' prose, and holy-shit, some actual useful beta: http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=935755 you might like a short stickclip but it ain't essential - from big-ledge (and you can aid p1 of course - even in the damp it's not too hard to free to the cave belay, and then it's a long c1 pitch to big ledge), it's about 50 meters to a great stance and 4 belay bolts - there's a hanging belay along the way i recommend skipping - the first 25 meters in almost all gear, w/ 1 or 2 antique pin/pin-stacks you can clip, and very steep - past the hanging anchor it's mostly old bolts, w/ the occasional decent one thrown in - the times i've done it i've found a hand-placed beak, talon-hook and skyhook all necessary for that 2nd part (and its nice having the belayer down on big ledge so you don't fall into him, which is not impossible on the wackiest bolt ladder i've seen ). i have NOT done the last pitch to the top of the norseman's head (the trail is a simple scramble from there), but i did discover this summer a fat set of anchors and huge rap rings there. that last pitch looks serious, and fun! stephenwulf rocks - this time of year, for punkass aid climbers like ourselves, you'd be very, very hardpressed to go groudn to trail in a day. and big ledge itslef is a rocking place to spend the night - easy place to hang a ledge from and sleep, and you can still easily sit around and rock out on the ledge itself...

bears is a popular climb w/ the hardman-types - it's easy to aid if'n yer a coward so wtf? did ya'll spend the night out there? gnarly, gnarly. ya'll might like rapping into big ledge and spending hte night there before the closure - upper stephenwulf is a bitch'n aid climb.
-
ok, ole'hal seemed a pretty easy case, at least on what's on his wikipedia page (and i can't imagine that 3 years in jail will soften him much) - i don't listen to right radio much at all - do they actually say shit as crazy over the top as senor turner? seems like those guys, fuckstickes that they are, are a bit more nuanced...

"He admired the Communist Manifesto and burned the American flag.*" the stars n' stripes gets an asterik these days? i like how political parties are like churches, always passing round the plate to get the good word out!
