Like a werewolf?

What the hell is with all these "nice" posts by Trask today? His dangerous combinations of Johnny Walker and Paxil must have finally pushed him over the edge of insanity...Or someone has kidnapped him and assumed his identity. It's weirdin' me out, man!! Makes me think I might be next

Actually, I believe that Old Ben said that those who desire security over liberty DESERVE neither. Either way, well said. It is a fine line, but we lose the essence of American Freedom if we get so scared that we lock down our society. Be personally aware and address security on a personal level - don't depend on the government (i.e., police, sheriff, etc.) for your personal security because that is not entirely their job. Just as the Col. and TLG. Many of you decry us "gun nuts", but we are people who have decided to be responsible for our own safety/security and that of our families. Greg W

In order for man to live something must die. Besides, wild game is by far the best. 100% natural & low in fat. Hunting is also the purest form of freedom there is. Right on bro.

Lighten up Dan; a bit of jesting is de rigeur here at cc.com, you should know that. Why don't you go back to mainlining Diamox at sea level and bite off. Greg W

Looks like it's finally time to climb the North Norwegian Buttress on Mt. Index in "pure" style. That A4 shit is for pussies.

The lattice was probably on clearance at the lumber yard on the edge of town. Gotta do what they can to church it up. [ 10-30-2002, 02:11 PM: Message edited by: Greg W ]

I must disagree with Tex slightly (despite the fact that this will probably lead to a bullshit political move by Tex to get me disbarred from the Snafflehound Freedom Foundation). Reading all the posts about skiing, and gleaning what technical information I can, has given me a desire to get out and do some backcountry skiing this year. Snowshoes can only take one so far and I see some potential to see some cool shit in the winter time. Now if someone would just decide they HAVE to move to Hawaii or Jamaica and sell me their gear cheap . Greg W

I had a buttermilk thingy the other day that was quite tasty. I think it's had the same ownership for the past year (at least). Now they're just doing a bit more to get more business. Haven't eaten any meals there, so I can't comment on food quality.

I always like Winchell's when I was a kid. Sultan Bakery is sweet as you head out to climb.

Can a few people pool some money together so we can helo in and set up a top-rope up on the Tooth? I want to climb it in the purest style.

Iain, with the round pastry grip the sides with one hand, squeeze together (making a football type shape) and shove in mouth, grab another one.

And, ScottP, your problem is??? Let me guess, you can't spot sarcasm or friendly joshing? Or you're just uptight? Greg W

ScottP - I know you think you're being funny but I'll have you know that the Dale Carnegie School has contacted me to head up their new personal interaction classes: "How to berate someone like a knuckledragging redneck, get your point across, win friends and influence people." I'm sure you've heard of it. I'll be leaving soon to present this topic to the latest crop of MBA candidates at The Wharton Business School. Thank you very fucking much, Greg W

Fence Sitter - I have been on the same side as you in previous arguments, but in this one you sound like a whiny little bitch. Erik is 100% right; you have no "right" to violate the property rights of BC Rail. From the access battles that I have followed, you stand a chance of striking a black mark against climbers in the eyes of BC Rail if you are caught (or even spotted, not necessarily arrested). Bide your time and put your pent up energy towards the access battle ('cause you're obviously not getting laid at that bible college ). Join the fight, don't bitch from the sidelines. Greg W

I took a long look at MEC's higher level 3-ply Gore-Tex jackets when I was in the market. They seem well-made and built with the climber in mind. I ended up buying a Mtn Hardware 'cause I got a deal, but would take a second look at the MEC next time. Price is nice when you convert to US$

Oh, you little vixen; the way you tease!!! Combine the best of both and use your body as the plate!!!

quote: Originally posted by Fence Sitter: coffee with amaretto... Girl

Strong coffee, scramble some eggs w/some Tabasco and cheddar cheese, insert eggs in homemade tortillas with some cheese and slip back in the skillet to warm it all up and melt the cheese. This is my favorite breakfast when I am home on the weekends; stop on by if you're heading out to Index (bring your own eggs if there are more than 2 in your car). Oh, yeah; liberal dose of Pace Picante on top. Greg W [ 10-30-2002, 09:25 AM: Message edited by: Greg W ]
