whistleblowers seem often to defy the hero/traitor simplification daniel ellsberg is i suppose the most famous leaker in our history - i read his book "secrets" and finished it thinking that, despite the nobility of his cause (and i'm more confused as to wikileaks purpose, as they're all over the board on what they release), he came off as a self-important, johnny-come-lately sorta hero the recent movie "the informant" also depicts historic whistel-blowers having mixed motives secrecy is anathema to democracy

sounds like something calvin n' hobbes woulda done...

mt hamilton woulda been tre cool

jesus christ, you should check out the sweet shit they have at myschool - better than the goddamn athletes cafeteria i got to eat in at uva once in a blue moon. Umm, I thought you lived in hickville - whitebread with no Pakistanis, yet alone African-Americans. duh, that's my point - the school lunch of today is not the school lunch of 20-30 years ago - not suprsingly, they no longer cost .85$ either fw - that hurts man pointing out tvash is my friend is devasting, truly - you'd probably have more friends too if there were more retards in the world off to work b4 the post count police step in!

indeed, and to deny them their kools and chicken for their kids is to truly fuck w/ the beast!!! you want to volunteer to teach angry, hungry poor kids?

major bummer for sure - it did leave beacon and the mighty, mighty crags of the ozone n' bitchzone though!

aid climbers DO smell funny though....kinda like my high school art teacher's smock

indeed, and a far better flick than the '66 pic "queen of blood," which i saw for the 1st time this weekend, and which even my kids thought was shit.

i actually really like gray squirrels - when you run them over at 90 mph you feel like dog actually got you out of bed for a reason.

wait, so you can't even warm up in there now in the middle of the day?

see, the private market still will have a place in the post-obama apocalypse! in this case, seems like spending money on pancreatic cancer is a bit of a waste - who, other than steve jobs, ever lives through that fucker?

it's business casual day n' da hood!

what/where is karst?

not a good sign when an 80 year old man has bigger guns then you, eh dogg?

he is dead...so you can stop calling him shirley

13 months after my last soirre there, beaconben and i wandered up into the rare'auold reaches of the pipeline headwall - the rainstorm this time wasn't so scary as last time i'd clambered up fresh squeeze a few weeks back and left a rope fixed - ben on the attack! (did i mention we need to pass the hate and buy old'boy a christian alarm clock? ) not exactly a promising day - alternating bands of mist, piss, drip, 10 second sun-breaks, n' steady rain - didn't matter much really, the wall was so soping wet looking up was a dim idea, as it invariably came w/ a phat-smack to the glaz-ball ben at the helm - done this one a half-dozen times now so i'm always eager to talk someone else into doing the deed notch of jensen's ridge over bennie's shoulder the ensuing coupla hours gave me ample time to take in the sun-starved scenery 10 seconds of valley vistas! where'd that white boy get to anyhow? time 2 clean lower outs are nice jensen's rimjob above ben's head - wanted to work on a long-neglected and perhaps ne'er attempted line climbers right of the rimjob (thinking "jensen's rectum" will be the thing ) - not enough time to take it on and beat a retreat, as it is The Land of No Anchors up there, so that was that for this day, on the cusp of winter... purty views from the top of the pipeline tower fixed 2 lines to the anchors up there w/ intention to come back in the next few weeks and do the new thing proper - rapping down above the arena of terror i saw this beauty which begged to be cast down w/ the sodommites - didn't take much more than farting on it hard rappell not to like...

arresting a 100 year old man like willie for smoking the weed he's been smoking for the last 8 decades is like, is like, is like...uh...somethign that dennis miller would be able to make a simile for fuck's sake, isn't the urban legend willie had a puff on top of the white house during hte carter dayz (when he was already gray)?

indeed it does blow, and is part of a trend in the hopey-changey outdoorsy world you're big n' brawny enough rob i'd like to see these folks, miles from any authority figure, try to tell you you couldn't spend the night

you can't defeat gray squirrels - musta seen my dad shoot a thousand of those fuckers and they'd just keep stepping over the corpses to get at the bird feeders

free willie!!! [video:youtube]
