Agreed okay - you boys can yammer at one another, but only till we get up to 1000 views and i get the little cool flamey-icon by my sweet tr, whereupon you both have to stfu kev, go get at it! i wont' even ask you if you "freed" it! i promise i won't cry eitehr if you accidentally misplace the panel (it's sketchier than meth-rage fo'shizzle!) - be prepared for plenty of scrubbing above the roof - half the reason i didn't push it after my fall was not having hte heart to clean out a ton of dirt n' brush in the rain

Jeepers, ivan, there's another one... one-drop rule, DWB, and now this. What's an Illinois-nazi? whoa...no way! i hate illionis-nazis! [video:youtube]

knee pads i figured out a long time ago! ben got me onto the 2 pairs of etriers system and i was using that this weekend - definitely nice, though i reckon makes it a hair harder to commit to goign over to free climbing with the additional weight (though you always leave a pair behidn) i think maybe jim or someone showed me the setup they had for hte adjustable fifi (is that what you're calling your "alpine fifi?") - sounds smart, i just need to see it demo'ed again - i guess you got it set to arm-length so you test it on the ideally spaced placement

so long as he ain't an illinios-nazi!

i thought it was a freaking "laser"?

see what i'm saying? i try to listen but all i can hear is: blah, blah, blah, blah - i hate n#gg#s - blah, blah, blah, blah i mean come on, if you're gonna be an asshole, at least be funny?

i hear you on the keep it simple idea, that's why i haven't suffered from fifi-envy when hanging out w/ geoff how does have an adjustable fifi help testing sketch pro? seems like bounce testing it ougha be good enough, though i guess the piece that blew adn threw me had survived a bounce test (and my body weight too for at least 10 seconds or so) i know of course not to look at the pro when testing it - i was observing the rule by breachign it! - the problem was the piece was a lowe-ball and i've still yet to really comprehend how they work or when i can trust them, so was eyeballing precisely to try to understand how it was fitting - i usually jsut don't use pieces i'm unfamiliar w/, but at the time that was all i could find to looked to work - i just need to fuck w/ the things at ground level hey, what other aid-pointers do you wanna give out? jugging/cleaning tips would be nice - i was wasting energy cleaning my pitch. what are the ideal lenghts for each daisy to the jug? what steps do you aim to use on your etriers?

okay, but you don't really know if you're incapable of leaving it intact until you try and fail though, right? as i said, i have no plans on wounding the beacon-wand - i have so far not been responsible for any gaint mass-wasting effects on the monolith, so i reckon that makes me qualified enough

nope - should i? geoff's got a cool hi-speed guy w/ 2 hooks, 1 long, 1 short - he tells me an adjustable fifi is much better for seconding/jugging and dealing w/ pulling gear

i got veterans day off and can't find a partner - anyone wanna go get some vengeneance w/ me (or anything else ) tuesday?

i think the example is how officers who disagreed with rummy's approach to Iraq were 'purged'. funny - that's exactly what i was thinking i know, i was just a little slower than normal this morning. sorry about that. what other flaws of bush's then do you expect obama to continue? my laughter was more at the potential for outrage at obama instead of the actual outrage at bush for having done just that at any rate, regardign the military, i'd heard that obama was thinking about keeping gates on as secdef, and to my knowledge, there've been no such accusations of purges since he's had the helm, right?

must not have annoyed them too much as i noticed they got a copy on the wall in their office too!

Just on the outside. Inside he hates it to hell...... jim is a man who makes meals of paradoxes

from the ground it looks identical to pipedream and fresh squeeze, so i'm sure it'll be at least 11+ - too far out of my league to be concerned about - at any rate, the free-climbing monkey-boys won't touch it unless it gets cleaned first, so i can do the work for them and then, inshallah and the choss remaining, they can steal all the glory and write a TRUE 5 star tr!

the problems i see w/ that are: a) wading through hate-fuck poison oak to even try to find a place from above where you can drop down (i got riddled last fall going up through the top out on jensens ridge) b) there are no rap stations above the arena of terror c) everyone's gonna be mean to me if i defile the holy ram-ram beacon-wand by casting off some of its sacred stones

How do you figure? They are barely 100 off the ground hate the game, not the playas! we could like, see the himalayas from our belay!

well then i'll be sure to rename it "ivan's insult" - even in that potential disaster, it's unlikely to make many weep - overgrowth in both silver crow and axe would indicate it hasn't been loved in a long time few have ever described me as "extra gentle" i'm not even really sure what that means? i would be unlikely to start wailing on the rocks w/ my hammer, especially w/ the whole thing poised 2 feet above my noggin. at any rate, both the ratings of crow and axe have a3 in them, so to add extra aid to them is no great tragedy

It's not obvious until you are actually looking down on it and it's at the level of your feet. You can see a portion of it just above the purple traverse line in the technicolor pict, down and right from the yellow '126'... okay, well, inspiration enough then to go back and have at it i reckon then - still feel a vague sensation of dread thinking about it though - it seems like all that rock going off in my face would spoil all my angelic beauty

hmm, it's a rather grim situation when i cast as a target audience actually i was payign attention to this conversation between you and matt b/c i thought the question(s) he posed were faithful and interesting ones - so maybe just answer them for me? do we in fact need the size of nuclear forces we currently employ? do we need the filthy expense of so many redunant systems, especially in time of record deficit? wasn't clinton's budget surplus due in good measure to a reduction in military expenditures, which is obviously a massive chunk of the federal pie? if you're willing to accept some reduction, how much? what's the minimum amount of megatons we need on hand at a given moment (it's not like we'd have to restart the whole damned manhattan project to produce more in an event of a serous conflict anyway, right?)? i am of course not at all aware of our current nuclear inventory (and i would imagine such a # is and always will be a pretty closely held secret, no matter what might be publicly declared), but, it X is the amount required to pretty much destroy all human life on earth, i would imagine a very conservative estimate for us right now is 50X - if this were so, i'd see little danger in reducing that to less than 10X, especially if, in the process, we could save save a 100$ billion matt - at what point in my cc.com life did i blink? how is it that you inspire such animosity? seems like you've always been the sober guy at the party not acting like an asshole and often playing the role of the guy prying car keys and knives out of dumb-ass mother-fuckers hands? do you like, pm these guys and let mr. hyde write the copy?!? guess i haven't alwasy been paying that much attention to spray

in the end, it's best not even to dither much over racial descriptions or distinctions - for example, it's not that hitler's "mein kampf" was bad b/c it was a bigoted, hateful, loathsome diatribe on the subject of race, it's that it was really, really, really boring and rather harder to read than stero-instructions - seriously, have you TRIED to actually make it through a chapter of that fucking thing w/o wanting to take a nap? i was expecting excitement, controversy, a roaring manifesto! instead it was a whole lot of blah, blah, blah, blah, blah about shit that isn't even vaguely interesting

"black" is just a word and doesn't mean much - shit, there are "white" Africans - words mean whatever we want them to mean, which of course changes over time - 200 years ago obama would have been considered "black," especially if he was working in the fields - today, who cares what "black" means? it's whatever a person wants it to mean, and one's assignment to race, a curious and quaint custom and one stilla actively evolving, in the modern world seems to be very much a matter of one's own choosing - that is, if you want to be "black" you are, no matter how much melanin you have in your skin - dude, eminem! if you want to be "white," then that's what you are, however you define it. doesn't mean the "race" will accept you as one as your own though.

we used one lead rope (which geoff, dude - throw away! - the kermantle shouldn't have 4 inches of missing core at the end! ) and a tag line - i was expecting i might need to convert the tag line over to another climbing line at some point so joe (nice pic for pipedream - man that took forever!), i'd heard about the amazing techni-color sidewalk and was suprised not to see something obvious like it below the roofs - is it in fact above them?

on mt hood, you can navigate in a white out on most routes solely w/ an altimeter

hmm - you're there joe - silver crow's #126 in the book and depicted - silver crow's the one not shown, but maybe somewhere between crow and updraft to heaven? or maybe higher up?
