I think leading .10d trad is harder than bouldering v4 but what the hell do I know? If you are talking about placing the gear and the possability of death and the height of the climb okay, maybe. But if you take the gear out of the deal, then what I understand is a V4 is something like a 5.12ish move as far as strength and sheeer power. but what the hell do I know, I can't even pull on a Vb

I don't know anything about orthapedics. Was he being realy mean or just wanting you to face hard truths? FINDING A DOC IS SOOOOOOOOOO HARD!

do you mean he was unatractive? or that he was an ass???? cause if he was an ass keep looking! My surgen(not orthapedic though) was one of the BEST did a great job is handsome has a great sense of humor and all around a great guy. You can barely even see my scar.

at least you came back I was starting to worry I had to GO OUT SIDE (gasp)

NO SHIT!!!! that was painful I did take my kids to the park though

good topic! most stoked: 1) first sport lead (5.6 and 5.7) 2) first trad lead (5.7ish) 3)climbed Hard Lieback on top rope 4) climbed Limp Dick on top rope and finaly broke threw my 5.9 cealing 5)met a TON of fun people and had lots of good times most pissed: that I can't seem to overcome my fear of death enough to lead gingersnap (fucking peice of shit!) and that I did not lead as much as I set out to at the beginning of the saeson. it seems like I didn't get to climb enough, but then is there such a thing as enough? winter sucks, but I am looking for a reason not to hate it [ 11-19-2002, 03:54 PM: Message edited by: yaya ]

LUCKY YOU ALLL BTW I like jules too but living in a small town trying to get gear SUCKS!

yeah, someone sort of agrees with me

what do you mean??? that they were trying to sell their goods to rich people??? well sure. But (okay I could be talking myself into a corner here, but bare with me any way ) the meat of the clients of the companies I have worked for have been the middle class. i.e. Clothing store, we MIGHT get one extreamly wealthy customer that comes in and drops a grand twice a month. what keeps food on the table and me paid was the middle class people that came in every day. not the SAME PERSON mind you< but the many middle class people

that was not realy what I was getting at, although I do agree. I still stand by what I was trying to say. (even if I am wrong) the richest (most $) people I have ever met did not SPEND alot. they were/are very frugle there for they remain wealthy.

Trickle down ecanomics DOES NOT WORK. GOOD GOD! Are you serious? Who builds their nice houses? Their boats? Their Audis? And when they "invest" do you suppose that generates capital that corporations (and government! ie: bonds) can use to buy physical improvements? Jobs?? Jobs?? Has a person w/o money ever given you a job or hired you to do contract work? Most of the people I have worked for have been small buseness owners who are MIDDLE CLASS My point is that if you gave me a million dollars and I spent it I would no longer be rich now would I? most jobs are gereated by people who work ( the middle class) so few people are truely wealthy I doubt most people have worked for a person who is truely wealthy either. I am not talking about corprate wealth, but personal wealth.

I guess it could be, I was more refering to the fact that the closest I have ever been to an ice axe is seeing it in someones living room and thinking to myself "that must be an ice axe" I didn't pick it up though

NOW YOU ARE TALKIN' BRONCO!!!!! free beer free climbing and free travel sk

seems like that would be a fun way for the tool deprived ( ummm me) to learn to swing an axe looks like fun too

DOOOD! you are unstopable
