??? ummmmm ... what's the big deal about getting a passport in the states? Do they make it crazy hard, or what? Is there some big test you have to pass, or is there like a $1000 fee, or maybe you have to apply in person at an office in Washington DC that's only open for 15 minutes in the early morning of the second Tuesday of every fifth month? Here's your solution: a) get passport b) go traveling c) renew passport when it expires d) keep traveling I've always had a passport in the drawer ever since finishing high school, just in case I wanted to go somewhere. It's pretty simple. Really. so i'm thinking...we use the 7th cav to conquer, rape n' pillage canada (or at least BC), we don't need to worry about passports to squamish anymore?

better yet, mix up some caipirinhas! sounds tasty, but harder to come by here in the land of the non-brazilian wax?

it don't matter how shitty your wine is - in blazing heat of summer, add some fruit juice/chunks and crushed ice to whatever old filth grape-piss you find lying aroudn and you have a far superior beverage to any beer for withstanding the awfulness of the Enraged Orange Overlord

wise king do not grieve it is always better to avenge dear ones than to indulge in mourning for every one of us living in this world means waiting for our end let he who can achieve glory before death when a warrior is gone that will be his best and only bulwark

"truth means nothing to a women, delmar - the triumph of the subjective! remember that one simple precept and your time w/ me will not have been ill-spent!" so did you get the delorean up to 88 mph and steal marilyn monroe? hawt! but does she climb hotel room walls?

i thought it appropriate, as whitman was also a phreak, especially in the fetish for little boys deparmtent, but also a mega-popular poet, the rock-star art of the day

so did you keep that pair of drawers or not?

blah! woulda gone all the way the first time, i've just never felt that shitty waking up in the mtns - tvash was particularily pleased w/ the giant puddle of mucus i'd accumulated over the night next to my bivy the best strategy for me on this route would appear to be arriving at the pass early monring on day 1, fixing to pitch 4, bivyign at the car, then doing the rest of the route in a day - hauling overnight stuff harshes on my mellow and the pitches above m'n'm would suck w/ a bunch of weight plenty of fixed gear to make the first 4 pitches mellow - loved my borrowed hybrid aliens and used them relentlessly - the first pitch is rather enigmatic and seems easiest to start right of the obvious anchor chains, then traverse left on an easy ledge to a bolted route that heads up there - the bolted route is rather easy if you already have your aid head on - the loose block section on pitch 3 blows, especially as it led me to a blind #3 placment around the corner, and somehow above the frapping anchor? i don't understand how you'd reach that pitch 3 top anchor w/o fucking your second - at any rate, i continued on and climbed the first half of pitch 4, setting up an anchor on a slung block and bunch of aliens before bringing pat up. will probalby be a more enjoyalbe climb too when its not ballz cold up there!

dude, how can you not enjoy a mountain and a route that attracts so many high-powered mutants that god never even considered mass producing? remember that dude a decade ago that spent 3 days chopping his way up the sunshine route w/ a bowie knife in blue jeans n' cowboy boots only to fall ass over teakettle down the southside? seeing folks like that is like seeing the beating, bleeding heart of the baby-jesus lord himself!

I don't know if I've got ANY friends that I'd be comfy taking up Cooper Spur for their first mtn. climb. Yikes! nonsense - perfect route for cherries - goddamit this is what climbing a mountain is! little old ladies did it in woolen knickers w/ alpenstaves in the by-gone-days-of-filth so shut the fuck and get up there! best route for all the reaosn listed - wilderness feel, solitutude, views, etc.

the summer is off to a nice start, and plenty of high-pressure done come!

goddamn i heart my hardon-self! can medical science please get w/ the whole human cloning thing soon so i can have gay-incestal-child-sex w/ meself? still coughing up razorblades - maybe i should quit smoking light-bulbs and old-shopvac bag contents? spent last night on the city benches at index after climbing city park - did sloe children this morning after sleeping on a portaledge on route, like a dirty hi-tech hobo - heard a loud explosion and watched billowing clouds off on the 2 until it grew to dark - cops coming and going for a while - figured armagedeon was upon us and drank the last of my wine - bathed this afternoon in the mighty skykomish and sat a while in the sun now off to dildorado!

it's always nice when stereotypes bump into reality

hey, it's the jackson family - pretty good odds that'll happen, right?

from a pederast i far preferred, on the present subject: The spotted hawk swoops by and accuses me, he complains of my gab and my loitering. I too am not a bit tamed, I too am untranslatable, I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world. The last scud of day holds back for me, It flings my likeness after the rest and true as any on the shadow'd wilds, It coaxes me to the vapor and the dusk. I depart as air, I shake my white locks at the runaway sun, I effuse my flesh in eddies, and drift it in lacy jags. I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love, If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles. You will hardly know who I am or what I mean, But I shall be good health to you nevertheless, And filter and fibre your blood. Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged, Missing me one place search another, I stop somewhere waiting for you.

aliens can't die i prefer to think of MJ as battling evil...in another dimension...in a speedo and covered in cotton candy!

i'll say "i knew you when..."

kevbone says goodbye, jacko dies....connection?

why does (did) MJ like thirty six year olds?

hitler was buddha so obama is buddha

pbr kegstands and chainsmoking?

when it comes to politicians sleeping aroudn all that matters in the public mind is: how does the other chick look? clinton couldn't be forgiven b/c he was fucking a frumpy chick in the bathroom - if mrs argentina is haaaaawt then gov's respekt goes waaaay up!

every day you stay in this spray forum you get weaker, and every minute kevbone squats off the interwbus he gets stronger.

its seems cell phones are much more reliable at recieving text messages in the backcountry - so use whatever gets the best battery life - mostly i'd say ditch it though, nothing but bad news flows through those fuckers - last summer i used my partners phone when i climbed up la cunt and got a text message that my friend's baby had died - really cast a pall over the rest of the trip

dude, have you lived in south carolina? this time of year you can do a lot of stupid shit in the name of escaping the insanity of heat and bugs!
