"The end result of experiencing terror and injury is not an increase in compassion, but a tendency toward callousness."

i've never done it, and i'm not certain just how far the closed area extends either - the bottom line seems to be that doing the n face this fall is not really a 1 day affair

are you capable of doing anything other than epicing on the muir snowfield in november there joshua?

The Mother of All Classic Slow Dance Songs is of course, Stairway to Heaven, for the most obvious of reasons: any white guy can shuffle his way through it whilst groping the ass of his girlfriend. yes, but as we all (should) know, "stairway" can only be played as the LAST song of the night...

sounds like it's time for a stimulating poll as to the merits of various and sundry spray-wankers

fuck you yankee blue jean's "beserker" would be a much better call, if'n ya wanna go that route

just the burnt out area, not the mtn above timberline!

huh? you mean hitler was a humanitarian? firebombing dresden and nuking hiroshima was for the benefit of all humankind? hate to split hairs dude, but, while i'd agree that ww2 at least was necessary to fight, i see very little about it that was noble and a whole lot that is just fucking repulsive

damn kev - it takes a lot to crush the soul of a man who can survive two of the worlds' great shitholes, rwanda and bangladesh!

my suggestion was my wedding song and how much more classic can you get then the beatles really?

the best climbing writing has to come in haiku form that way i can actually finish it in the little time The Man grants me to live out my stupid little life

change I can believe in

"the first world war came and it went the reason for fighting i never did get but i learned to accept it, accept it w/ pride and you don't count the dead when god's on your side" as for the war to end all wars, i think plato had something astute to say about that. done talked w/ my vet dad already 2day - my grandpa's gone - and my little bro for some reason couldn't get to the phone over in i-rack

when i'm 64?

When is right? Who is Spain? Why is Hitler? Hi-ho beriberi! questions i insist on asking at each and every staff meeting best name for a character in the history of literature? nately's whore? major major major major? milo minderbender?

sssshhh! not so loud! if the the real climbers hear i'm a spray-lord, they might stop talking to me!

perhaps the rapture has come? would explain why i'm still here...

my favorite obscure literary reference that no one ever seems to pick up on: where are the snowdens of yesteryear?

how many trails have you been on in the n cascades that didn't have 5 billion trees down on them?

kinda like making a king-sized thick ass feather bed out of a whole squadron of bald eagles? actually, that'd be a whole lot more worth it!

the "arena of terror" on the far southwest side shown below was perhaps the result of one previous tunnel being blasted? it certainly is shaped like a big crater. they may also be the entrances to the secret rebel base or the freaking laser

yes and yes maybe pony loaf is one of those great southernisms i learnt up on as a knee-high? i remember "road-apples" being a classic synonym for the same.
