We've met, assclown.
And barstools don't count as climbs.

No, dude, it's just that our opinions are divergent and it's useless to waste our precious energy beating each other over the head.
Anyway, Sims's proposal is pointless as he lost to that idiot Gregoire (how he did that I'll never know).

What's with some of these "moderators" anyway? I have recently experienced it myself when I brought up the quickdraws at Alpental and at least three moderators decided to make it a personal issue about me and heaped on the abuse.No, Merv, that's because you are a loud-mouth fucking dick who doesn't climb anymore and still has to feel that he's in touch with the climbing community. It's not the content of your message, it's how you communicate it. Besides, can you actually hump your fat ass up to Rap Wall?

It's not crap, it's your opinion; I have mine. Yippeee!! We don't agree and that's okay. Carry on.

Alpine climbing often involves climbing with a pack. Go to the gym and climb with a pack filled with a bunch of books or something (and make sure to hook an ice-axe on the outside). Make sure to be wearing your helmet too.
Post your plan to do this in the "Events Forum" please. I'd pay money to watch this gaperness.

You could probably rake in $14, $15 a week in pure profits! Once you build up a little capital, you could expand into snacks and eventually 1/8oz sacks of chronic...which would then cause an explosion in your snacks and cokes sales.Coke is a "gateway drug", I'm calling Nancy Reagan.

On a related note, one of the dudes at Feathered Friends told me that the new version of the Trango S (the red one) is going to have a WPB liner, hopefully solving the waterproof issues.
So if you're going that route, you might want to wait for the new models. He also mentioned that the red fabric was going to be slightly different in appearance, like shinier or something.
Will, are you saying that an ascent without the new Trangos would be unrecognized as an official "light-boot ascent"?

It's early for Christmas, Matt, but I'd like to extend a warm, steaming mug of SHUT THE FUCK UP to you. Just fucking shut up, you whiny fucking bitch. Holy Fuck!!! You sound like my first wife at that time of the month, I swear. Tuck the string back in and go on with your life, bitch.

Minx, people chose to vote for those initiatives. Don't blame Eyman. Sure, he brought it up, but in the end it was voter choice. I would say that if the band of idiots down in Olympia was more fiscally responsible, we wouldn't be discussing an income tax.
greg that's crap and you know it. plain and simple crap. time eyman knows that many voters doesn't have the foresight to realize the long term implications of that inititative. there shooting for short term wallet relief. it's one thing to discuss government waste and fiscal responsibility. it's another to take away a significant portion of the budget and then expect them to make it work.
It's not crap, it's a fact: each individual that voted for those initiatives CHOSE to do so. That is how it works in our government - take the good with the bad (however you see it). I give those who choose to vote a little more credit than you, but that's cool. (I won't piss you off until I get to sample the new ride
)I think those two are related. People saw the waste and bullshit surrounding the Transportation budget and chose to act on it. In my view it acheived the goal of checking what the Legislature was doing and made them look at smarter decisions to achieve transportation goals.

Lambone, I'm not going to blow sunshine up your ass like these other guys. I've just always thought you were an asshole. My analysis was confirmed after your little tantrum directed at chelle on another thread.

anyone who has been paying attention knows there are experts telling us the technology used to write the docs was well established in the early 70's. yet, the wingnuts categorically assert they are fakes. it just shows how much credibility they really have. to top it all they want us to swallow that whoever supposedly 'made-up' the memos didn't bother to spring 50bucks for a used early 70's typewriter but instead used MSwords
quite some hairbrained scheme there buddy.of course, they also forget to tell us that much of the info contained in the memos is consistent with that of numerous other sources and what we know about the case. yet, many appear ready to jump ship on this issue; it is maddening to hear liberals fall once more for the wingnut propaganda machine. grow a spine, people.
They change your meds again, j_b?

Greg, I agree with a lot of the tenets of Old Conservatism, just not the "new" Conservatives. They blast ahead like Democrats, in my book a scary Conservative.
"Old Conservatism" is actually "classical Liberalism". Small-government, individualists were the radicals and "liberals" when they proposed such ideas in the face of the monarchistic past. I agree on the Neo-Con thing. They're spending like Ted Kennedy on a bender. Pretty soon we'll all be like Mary Jo, at the bottom of the lake.

A sales tax is a use tax, plain and simple. An income tax is subjective and arbitrary. It is your opinion that people who make more should pay more, not a universal economic truth.
Sims rammed Brightwater down the throats of the people of Bothell. Sims is holding onto Lightrail despite all the opinion against it and the lack of practicality/benefit. He's in love with money...other people's money. And he wants to spend as much of it as he can get his hands on. King County wasn't necessarily running like a well-oiled machine on his watch, if I recall. Weren't they shutting down parks and shit?
-
A sales tax is the only fair tax - it's based on consumption, or involvement in the marketplace. The B&O could be adjusted to be more fair, or simply abolished.
Ron Sims is scary.

Why is it OUR countries job to hand out money? If we're going to be altruistic (involuntary shudder), why not start at home?
i do, not money (can't give what i don't have) but i make pb&j's and give em to the homeless folks on the corners in town. and i've taught whole piles of people how to climb
but really our gov't is way bigger now than in the clinton years, explain that.
EXACTLY!! bDubya, this is just what I'm talking about: Individual choice. I try and help out homeless people if I have food in my truck, but forced charity isn't charity; it's extortion and redistribution.
I don't like what GWB has done to the government over the past four years; I blame Congress more than GWB. I don't think Kerry will reverse that trend, though. All the promises he's making need budgets that have to come from somewhere (or should I say "someone").

I think the general message is: "Die tree-hugger scum!!!" Bwahahahahaha!!!!

I'll hold on to my idealism, thank you. You keep your warped sense that you must have a large-scale governmental father-figure to take care of you. Personally, I want the government's hands off of my fucking money. Why should my taxes go to support some art fag who can't work a real fucking job because it gets in the way of his creativity? And don't get me started on government schools. What the fuck is the Federal Government doing for education other than skimming off the top and doling out to states? Bull-shit!

Many of the things I hear people bitching about (healthcare for everyone, handouts from the government, etc.) aren't a part of the original American governmental experiment. The original idea was to limit government, allow increased individual responsibility and freedom, etc. If you want a socialized government, seek one out; there are plenty of them around. Point your headlights North.

This story may be a fake but at least it didn't result in 1000 American GI's dying and countless thousands of Iraqis. Your President told a lie far worse than this little story. Democracy in this country has been corrupted and the only thing that could persuade me otherwise would be the impeachment of the liar and resultant jail term for him and the other orchestrators of this fraudulent war.
Well put. It seems if we can re-elect this idiot rather than jailing him, we are a country of shallow materialists who cannot look beyond our own car and mortgage payments. It would be a sad statement of our nation indeed.
America? Man, you are out of touch. I don't like either of these shmoes, but give me a break. There is a large portion of America who love this country and align themselves more with conservatism than the liberals.

Is this some kind of fuckin' therapy thread? Your shrink told you to atone for your errant ways by 'fessing up and reaping the near certain affirming thumbs up stories that validate your being?Clearly Mike's working through the 12 steps of Climbers Anonymous... he's making amends to those who've been hurt by his climbing.
Seriously, though -- keep the aggro TR's coming, and keep pulling on gear whenever you can.
Only three steps to go! Way to go, Michael.

John Kerry's Economic Policy

Posted
Kerry wants to cut all these taxes and shit, but he wants to subsidize all this healthcare shit. Where's that money coming from? He's cutting taxes, but rolling back Bush's tax cut? How's that working?
I heard this morning that the US economy has seen 11 quarters of growth and the unemployment rate is the same as it was in '96, when the Clinton folks said the economy was booming (from an economist at the Heritage Foundation). I'm a middle-class American and I haven't lost $1500, nor are my healthcare costs going up. I think he's using some funny math on his stats.
All his big pie-in-the-sky plans are nice, but when he goes to Congress it'll be a different tune.
