except the nitro! that WOULD have made the difference.

whatever tr it was that mike wrote from the perspective of his turd was sweet i wrote a tr for granny's asscrack on mt hood once - i enjoyed myself capitaly on that one as i've said on many occasions, good tr's are quite simple, they just require wit and copious profanity tr's are kinda like sex though - never truly bad, though frequently ugly, often purely mechanical, not uncommonly done in the spirit of doing something else (i mighta been climbing hood, but in my heart it was K2), and done right, absolutely sublime

heartbreak on da toof!

Love that movie. funny though - came out basically the same time as star wars and alien but looks waay hokeier by comparision

How rude....I was saying good by to you. but bundling it w/ a lame chiro-joke - you need better material perhaps?

not trying to be downer - i dig on his rwandan tr's too - i'm just saying that all i seem to know about that small nation stems from it's genocide of the last decade and that it creeps into anything i see from there nice ride

hmm - makes me wonder - da toofwand really doesn't seem to get that many tr's - what is the most tapped out climb then on our board? hood south side? serp arete?

How about a chip in our hands that never comes out. Then they will know where we are at all times. his name wasn't logan, perchance? renew! renew! renew!

pretty retarded for a troll that's a route really

but will he be bringing a tauntaun and mlu? weather kinda sucks - seems like if he's waited this long he could wait another night...

sure to be the first of many, many resurrections - the almighty mt hood agony-fuck thread! umm, with a park-title like that, have they thought something might have home-boy?

i love how my twisted brain never fails to insert machetes in their hands either! christ, worse nightmare shit than any zombie-flick...

maybe i'll be able to stop smoking again now don't let yer finely honed basalt-sickness-skillz go to waste up there in the warm granite-country of renton

"come all you bold sea-faring men and listen to my song if you come off of them long trips, i'd have you's not go wrong take my advice, drink no strong drink, don't go sleeping w/ no whores get married lads, and have all night in, and you'll go to sea no more!"

I like you...you are too funny! I just have to respond to this... First off I was not trolling to stir things up. I was responding to ML's post slamming my trs...again . If addressing her post with the truth is stirring the pot then so be it. BTW I did post images from my trips in the past 2 weeks. Can I see yours? I love mountain porn! Second. Not sure what you mean by "gets any" but the way I interpret it, is you are talking about getting sex..?? Wow I have been getting some? New to me! I must have been passed out. I don't need to get some/any (sleep around)to climb. Thats not what it is about for me...what about you? Now if it "Gets any" means climbing...??? OH yeah getting lots of that several times a week! You? Third. I have been around here for several years just never posted much. I don't plan on leaving just because I post on other sites. This is a great site with many good folks and some of the best beta and TRs. I am sticking around. fourth. I want my mommy too... First, you are dumb as fucking snot. posting over here where there is a long history of bad blood between your site and this one, to beat up on someone who has history HERE, well that is just LAME. you are not here. you do not have history here because you do not post here. so fuck off. second, i never post TR's and there are many reasons for this. I don't climb that hard, and i don't climb so that other people can know what i do. i climb because i love it. if i take a camera it almost never sees the light of day because i am way to busy living in the moment. The only ONLY reasons to post a trip report in my never to be humble opinion is because you did something note worthy. leading your first 5.7 at vantage is bull shit and only means any thing to YOU. how self centered can you possibly be? so no you can't see my mountain porn. I would be more than happy to direct you to the nakid picture of me on the internet though because i do enjoy actual porn. and for the record i was out climbing 5.7's today and now i am going to get fucked so am am getting all kinds. I don't climb much during the week, because i have a successful career, spend time with my kids most every day and have 50% custody of them. I have a functioning co-parenting relationship with my ex husband, i have many friends, a multitude of hobbies and interests and a wonderful boyfriend and extended family. marylou had every right to post her opinion of someting she thought was lame, I happen to hold the same opinion. if you can't handle the idea of someone not thinking you are the cats kitty every time you clip a bolt or summit some moderate peak, don't post about it on the internet. no one obligated to be nice to you. PWD? posting while drunk? not that there's anything wrong w/ that...

like clubing a baby seal...

the whole world's turned against smoking in bars - even fawking france and ireland - truly a sign of impending armagedeon! i really only smoke when hanging out w/ people and drinking, so not being able to smoke there pretty much cuts me out of smoking period (well, layton'll tell you different - i smoke all his cigs when climbing, but that's just to slow me down like, so he can keep up and what-not ) i can live w/ not smoking in bars, though didn't that law kill cigar bars too? i'm not down w/ the particulars of the law, so don't know, but it seems entirely wrong to ban a person starting a business completely for smokers. a law creaating a more meaningful smoking/no-smoking section would have been better imho opinion too - that is, requiring the smoking section to be contained by walls/doors/glass, w/ its own ventilation system.

why do you keep on bringing up "mass marketing campaigns and media saturation?" folks have said a dozen times already that legalization of possesion and consumption would still be accompanied by restrictions in marketing, just as w/ tobacco and alcohol now. people have already sued the holy-hell out of the tobacco companies and forced them to change their behaviors, this kind of pressure would clearly effect coke/pot/meth/etc companies as well. i'm sure uncle sam would require money made on drug sales to be reinvested at least in part in anti-drug adds, just like w/ tobacco today. speaking of tobacco, what worries me currently is the drift of arguments like yours is leading towards the outlawing of that drug too - the militant sheep of sam's flock would accept that too.

yeah, the big guy gonna put his TR up on here? made for some real fine reading...pictures would make it perfect.

i need to climb w/ this fool then - nothing chews up a long approach hike faster than a bard-fest, we could tag-team stanzas! - and no matter how much of that poem i burn into my brain, there alwasy seems to be a thousand more lines to learn...

glad i'm not the only mutant we both seem to dig on our kids plenty now that they're older too

"so, the spear-danes in days gone by, and the kings who ruled them, had courage and greatness...."

it's one of my very few talents shall i recite a few thousand lines of "beowulf" as an encore? well - 2:52 - it's quitting time!

you misunderstood - i knew what the volstead act said w/o consulting wikipedia - i asked if you thought consumption would have been less if the act had been written to deny possesion or consumption too the problem w/ the pendulum of course is there's a lot more than one pendulum swinging - in the end, i think it's probably for the good - that whole philosophy of "there's no good if there's no evil" - a brief period of prohibition makes the good times of today all the more pleasant - it will be a thousand times so when the long night of pot-prohibition goes the way of the dodo

i didn't say social pressures always work to prevent us from indulging in drug use - of course they can promote it to. the usa has shown a long and predictable series of social fluctuations, mostly revolving around the holy-rollers getting their jesus-on after periods of binging - the volstead act was a legal flowering of that social trend towards fundementalism in the 1920s that also gave us the scopes-monkey trial. as one part of society got religion-crazy, another part moved exactly away from it (and were probably pretty pissed that their booze couldn't come along for the ride)
