yes

aww - he took his ball and went home!

you should go do flying circus then and skip all the pins there too! actually, seems like drytooling that lower crack on blownout direct might make it a hair easier, eh?

still fixed as of today - were you trying not to use the fixed pins? thought i saw it in that dihedral that has the 3 pegs...

woooord

the part of the elliot washout i saw a couple of weeks ago from teh west side of the moraine made it look as if clawing your way up the east side of the washout would not be impossible - certainly nerve-wrackign, and best done in daylight most assuredly, but i definetly thought i saw a line - i'm assuming that the trail past there is okay and don't know if there's similiar destruction past that point that i couldn't see

umm - isn't it like, hard or something, to get to pakistan, nepal and patagonia (the kinda tr's you usually see in said magazines) from the usa via a subaru?

exactly! if you have a hankering to do something positive, senor bone, your energy needs to go into finding a candidate in 08 worth supporting now and doing what you can to get them elected - bush is already pretty much a lame-duck-non-entity and currently you're acting like the guy who wanted to stab caeser for the 29th time instead of the guy who should be figuring out how to help the republic - at any rate, attempting to boil down all the ills of a nation into who's occupying a single desk in a single town is silly - a nation of 260 million people isn't undone by a single man

if'n mike was to take up yoga, a rift in the time-space continium might develop as the old mike attempted to leap the inter-temporal chasm and beat the new-mike to a pulp w/ a wiffle-ball bat maybe you should just sit out on your sweet balcony and paint water-colors of sea-gulls'n'stuff, dude!

nothing shows love and appreciation like an economy-sized bag of pre-cooked bacon

just based on the trees around it in the picture, it doesn't look like it could be more than 20 feet in diameter! maybe 150 feet tall?

i agree - i clearly was race-baiting and chicken-baiting w/ my "roots" shot of chicken-george a few pages ago and didn't even get the obligatory reach-around !

so seriously, how much longer you wager till that thing falls the fawk over and becomes a large assortment of bouldering problems?

dunno - w/ 14 posts ya can't really claim he speaks for the masses yet, eh? my only consistent problems w/ extreme conservatives seems to their continual lack of humor - i can get along w/ the craziest fuckers imaginable so long as they like a good-natured laugh every coupla minutes...

jesus!

gay or not, who would you least rather fuck w/ - a climber or a ufc type?

lessee, so, for mike, that'd be kiddie fruit pieces n' bacon, eh?

sweet, sweet day out at the big rock today many, many thanks to josephh for cleaning out flying circus - i'd like to say my own lead of the newly cleaned bit was a master-stroke of brillant free climbing but i'd be lying a lot - much respect for the crazy FA's doing it w/o cams - yowza! like most beacon climbs a buncha nuts will protect the majority of the climb, but the off-width at the top was titilating even w/ a #4 which was almost always on the verge of being tipped out - a new school #5 would have been most welcome as an extra-piece hung out w/ jim at the ledge for a long while - he had a scarey moment when it looked like he only had enough papers for 2 more cigarretes for his bivy i gave him crap for doing his faux-alpine bivy by rapping down to it! i doubt i'll be talking as much shit when i'm as old as tortoise-turds though...

bill, you should know that anyone w/ legs like coulior's can say anything they damn well please - your job is merely to drool and nod your head, no?

it's more like 5.9 but 90 non-stop feet of .9!

a black man fighting animals? sure was cool when this guy was doing it...

you mean these aren't just the by-products of advanced age?!?

morisson and marat both died in bath-tubs in paris - both were demagogues - both died young - both were assholes, albeit linguistically gifted ones

god i loved marat! so was jim morisson totally trying to copy-cat him or what? FREEDOM IS SLAVERY!

hobo spiders are asian i think also according to jim, the current meeting between the chief execs of n america will result within in a years time in all sorts of fucked up rules we can't even imagine now, but they will certainly include not being able wipe our asses w/o gov permission - there are currenlty hundreds of camps already built around the country to house those who won't Pay Heed - this will all be rigidly enforced by implanted id chips and tv's that watch us while we watch them, uh, and also from cia bases on the moon and mars i infinitely prefer climbing w/ jim to soloing!
