I wouldn't say many, certainly not most. There are only a couple who have not had real world interaction with folk around here. "I'm not a woman, but I play one on the internet"

Is there anyone else on this site who could become such a legend in under 19 posts?

Roboboy, I loved that classic Trigger Finger shot, so I couldn't help myself, I had to clean it up a little for you.

Here's one for Bouldering: and an entry for Humor: choking the chicken

No Kev, neither of those people is me, I'm the photographer. My friend Bob and Robin, my girlfriend of the time, are the subjects. A ways back, that's me on Coonyard and sitting on a bivy ledge.

Here's the climbing area in my front yard, circa 1915. Uhhh, not my picture.

Bouldering in San Diego, about 1978. I used to love to take out a 4x5 view camera and screw around with mis-aligning the shutter and focal planes.

Steve, have you not been paying attention? If you want to go out on the town with Kevin, it's got to be a run to the QuickieMart for some Huggies. Still, there is opportunity for adventure... Pink, sorry to hear it, but it's really best to get it right before you get married. Still, tough process to go through.

Awww man, you didn't have to go and do that, we'd have given you a free pass on the pushup contest without it. No wonder things have been slow. Get better chum, we need you to emcee the big sausagehoedown.

Yep, base jump off a dam, he came out okay in the end. There's a longer version out there where he sits up, pulls the helmet with cam off, and you can see him sitting there. Still, the moans and groans with the blurry bloody hands is pretty grim.

You mean like this? PEVesqA_3Po

Peter, did I misread the article? In this case I believe the 9th is kowtowing to a previous decision by the Supremes, not making a decision that will be overturned. The decision certainly sucks though, I agree with Arch's assessment. War on Drugs paranoia has tainted the whole pain relief debate, coupled with bizarre puritan notions of suffering being good for the soul.

I've got some vintage slides of that wall somewhere in the archives...

See, who says Americans don't want these jobs?

You know, that wasn't such a big deal in 1974.

My sense is that the image should be under your creative control, so if you directed that would be fine, sort of like a self portrait, but if your buddy made the decisions about the image, that would be fudging.

bump What's the Latte update Carolyn?

No Sobo, I think she's remembering another photo of you and considers shorts to be overdressed.

Bivy ledge on The Happy Hooker, Trono Blanco 1978

Hey MisterE, looks like that feller needs to pay better attention to where his rope runs!

You see, here's the problem Cindy. You did post this from your own house. You have a static ip address, which means you have a high speed connection at your own house and it always has the same ip address. I do too. If you were posting on your laptop from some other location, the ip address would be different. This is what pissed Minx off. Normally, mods don't get involved in untangling trolls and false identities: it's the internet, we're all adults, and one does well to be wary. Usually there's some entertainment to be had in the game too. This one just smells weird, and trolls that elicit heartfelt responses from regular folk, known quantities here, are just poor taste. So, show up at a pub club, come to the sausagefest, go climbing with someone known here, and you can establish your bonafides if you care too. As it stands now, I fear you've been tagged as a dodgy and suspicious character.

I'm not planning to narrate, it's a bunch of old stuff from California, so I'll just do some minimal captions and you can look at the pictures. Anyone desperate for beta is welcome to chat me up after, but I don't think me gabbing about the old days will enhance the experience. I hear Oly will be showing slides of his beanie baby collection, including the rare large sized Princess Diana commemorative piece.

Yeah, you can see where the writer's hyperbole kicks in, no big deal, it's a decent article, and a rare chance for you to make clarifications to the small audience who will notice the funny bits. Pity about your lost fortune, though I think most here would agree you're most fortunate indeed. I think you should have named that route on Moffit "Almond Roca" so you would have Brown & Haley's Almond Roca as the full reference to the route. I hope you'll be around on April 1st for the Sausagefest and able to share a few pics. Have fun in Alaska.

It's a sign from god. You should quit skiing.
