So, Al Gore DIDN'T invent the internet? Damn. Who knew?

ditto.

That's because he wasn't educated at Andover and Yale. Sure, he attended Andover and Yale, but it's pretty clear he wasn't educated there. He got about the same grades as Kerry at Yale.

Wallstein; That feeling is what many are looking for. I've noticed, for me recently, it's been harder to find. Being harder to find, it negatively impacts my motivation to chase it. It's a viscious circle. For the first time, I'm struggling with summoning the drive, the desire, the hunger, that used to propel me to push myself, seek the edge, and enter that zone that you describe. The mountains will always be there, the routes will stay on my list, I'll climb them when I'm ready. Until then, I'll keep looking, climbing routes I know and love, and remembering that feeling.

What a fucking idiot, you are. Yeah, tv is reality to young punks like you, isn't it? Shut the fuck up and go back to mowing lawns for slurpee money.

Ramuta Stone Gardens in Ballard has free drop-off/pick-up service.

My father gave me the advice his father gave him, on the eve of my wedding: "Don't lay a hand on that girl. She's small, but you've got to sleep sometime."

Kick the ass of the guy next to you. You'll feel better. Bwahahahaha!!!

You're a little high strung aren't you? Relax.

I have the Garmont Vetta, which is great. Climbed NE Couloir of Colchuck in 'em - step kicking and front pointing. They take a heel bail crampon. They hike great.

Great bit of humor.

No, it was the fact that their economy could not compete with ours in an arms race, given that their economy was so centralized on defense spending.

and forget that our tax dollars financed and trained 10,000's of fundamentalists during the eighties in pakistan and afghanistan. these people eventually went back home with their weapons and know how. who do you suspect forms the backbone of extremism in islamic countries nowadays? accountability is essential if you don't want to repeat the same "mistakes". Just because you educate someone doesn't make you responsible for how they use that education. To stop the spread of communism, it was deemed strategically significant to aid the Afghans against the Soviets.

Got one. Nevermind.

What jkrueger said. I do this as one set, usually 10-15 reps each exercise. Do 3-5 sets. On the "hip up" (presuming you have your legs at a right angle to the floor) squeeze a rolled up towel between your thighs; this works a whole different set of muscles. These have the added benefit of making your orgasms more intense. My female training partner swears by it, but it worked for me. FIYAAAAAA!!!!!

Easy, people. You're making too much out of it all.

you know, at least they are honest about the cash part That's a first; you chics never are.

How much snow was on the summit block?

I don't think we could do anything to "sway the rest of the arab world." In their tribalist society, we are the outsiders (and always will be).

Three pitches of 5.5 in a row is 5.15...I'm a badass.

Since its inception, the Brady Bill has required that records of gun purchasers under the instituted N.I.C.S. check system and 7-day wait period be destroyed by BATFE immediately after the check is complete. There is no extant "list" for the FBI to check. The Brady Bill requires that background checks be destroyed; this was put into law before Ashcroft took his position.
