hugh conway is a satanist and deserves a just death

holy shit i stayed home and puttered round the yard today w/ the kids n' kevbone went out climbing! but tomorrow....

i didn't think the climbs at vantage were tall enough to fall 45 feet

tempest in a teapot - i thought you desert warriors were a tough breed? - some heinious looking old lady said that, perhaps, a growth in hate groups could be fueled in part by disgruntled soldiers and you get all blubbery like she was saying you're all monsters and baby killers? it might be fun though to waltz down memory lane and id some veterans who did in fact go extremist... lessee, should we start w/ the founder of the most famous hate-group ever? anyone? nathan bedford forest - the kkk - a political organization for what? ah, yes, pissed off former soldiers. did i say most famous? maybe i wasn't giving the nazi party its proper due - the founder - why yes, i think he was a former soldier, and his brown shirts too. lee harvey oswald? timothy mcveigh? terry nichols? ok - not the longest of lists but i'm going home now - i'm sure there's plenty of plumbers and postmen and teachers who've gone psycho leftie/rightie too, but then no one's saying they're all nuts either - the idea of watching folks who have learned and applied the skill of killing human beings in the name of a political goal to see if they've gone round the bend sounds like common sense to me though.

so who r the right wing extremist around here? prolly don't have the nutsac too answer that... i have a secret list of right wing extremists here i can niether confirm nor deny pink's existence on said list

reminds me of the drill sergeants bit in full metal jacket about lee harvey oswald

but everyone knows pirates are evil-doers!

i thought it was more like heat in the tropics - eternal! when they finish that predator-ninja-invisible armor you'll be able to climb 24/7

especially in smiffistan!

is this the thread where i'm supposed to confess all big weepy eyes and trembling lips yes, yes, yes i AM a dumbass climber there i said it i thought i was alone!

as a teenager i worked at water country usa in virginia, renting inner tubes to giant fat asses who, throwing their tubes in the cold water, invariably returned claiming "this'uns sprung a leak" to which i usually replied - "naw, that's robert boyle's fault" - the general response was a look like a dog shown a card-trick, though one fellar did spit a wad of chew at my feet after this cherished bon mot of mine

fuck you yankee bluejeans's "berserker" - the one and only answer [video:youtube]

i can name the father of chemistry, the ancient name for oxygen, and creator of the periodic table of elements, plus use the word "polyglot" in polite company - do you reckon that's good enough?

do you know the sign i'm talking about joe? down on the talus field, near the base of the west face - cruelly bolted to a big tree - it's old as hell and would seem to read like you can never climb below the trail

malayasian pirates seem to make a nice living despite invariably murdering everyone on board the boats they sieze

did you know it takes more muscles to than ?

not being aggressive or bitchy joe, just curious since i don't know and you might - how long has the west side been closed and what was the purpose behind the closure? i'm not all that dissapointed by it as the stuff just off the ground is kinda crappy looking, but it would be nice on sunny evenings in winter...

i feel like that kid from american beauty - you know the wierd fucker w/ the video collection and the nazi dad - this thread is the most beautiful thing in the whole world!

beats me - i doubt its bird, since it's a permanent closure - is it just a fear that tourists will kill climbers?

isn't that face below the trail closed to climbing? there's an ancient sign bolted into a tree that says no climbing, but maybe it just means the tree

is it jeff's rope from when he was doing all that cleaning on the face this summer?

that would sure explain all that positive proganda they were throwing bush's way the last 8 years

i think the U.N. sucks ass funny - b/c we basically created it that and the league of nations after ww1 (but then folks such as yourself talked the senate into refusing to join it, a large contributing factor to ww2, and thus the reason for our actually joining the un) for an organization that rarely manages to do anything other than talk, i find it wierd how hated the un is by a large # of amerikkkans who seem to think it's taken over the earth and made the baby jesus cry

returned yesterday to this fine route to work on my aid-soloing - signficantly freakier for me this way, but i'll learn - a nice fat crack at ground level serves well for an anchor at least, w/ a sketchy nut above to keep it oriented properly met the irascible denalidave, running the trail as always still don't see where to put a nut in on the traverse, but the grappling hook works just fine aided a wee bit past the anchor and looks like the next pitch will go indeed and be sweet, if ever it stops dripping

i think we volunteered?
