  2. sounds like a rocket scientist could have helped him out actually
  3. Look at the big boggle brain on Blake. Or should I say "corpus callosum"? Would that be a triple word score? Or is that in chutes and ladders?
  4. uhh MC = Master of Ceremonies MC^2 = Master of Ceremonies x 1 more ceremony uh, E = , er... QED this mofos
  5. you're damn right e=mc^2
  6. It would only be a catbirdseat response if it involved some bitching about apple pie filling not behaving as a true plasma, etc, etc. and then some random chemical formula used to triple word score in last night's boggle match.
  7. I think they would have a pretty sturdy case. It's like a tokamak inside those pies.

    etiquette question

    nah standard TNF down jacket. perhaps a little uv faded (but with brand new looking material in the front in the shape of a gri-gri)
  9. Heh, another sucker duped into buying Scheoller rather than Schoeller products. Hope you enjoy your Magnetbox and Sorny stereo...while it lasts sucker....mwhahaha
  10. come to think of it? Who the f- do they think they are calling that thing an apple pie?
  11. you have to lose that unhealthy bun. and if you buy the apple pie, you have to carefully extract the filling and only eat the deep-fried crust.

    etiquette question

    it's not like anyone has to apologize or rationalize wearing things, I was just flipping harpell some crap about being young or something. However there was a staggering amount of folks wearing TNF down the other weekend. I mean, 10 out of 12 in the heinous cling area

    etiquette question

    didn't you see? he no longer posts to this board.
  15. I started telemarking this year with Asolo Extreme Pros (leather) and Volkl Prestos with Voile 3 pin cables. Let me tell you your standard black diamond ski run is quite exciting again with this setup. I had to really check my ego delicately turning down runs I would normally straightline. It is fun with the right mindset. You can't go fast, but really getting rewarded for edging that back ski and focusing on not using your poles for any balance allowed rapid progression. I could see it getting really old after awhile though. The snow was good on Sunday, so I switched back to alpine. I found the focus required in leather tele boots on the inside ski REALLY improved my lazy turns on alpine gear. Noticeable improved powder skiing, where I would normally just be lazy with my weighting on monster AT boots. My tele gear was free. If I were to spend money, I would definitely get a beefy plastic boot. Despite what they say on TTips.com, I consider the T2 or Veloce really burly, heavy boots. If you can get leather boots and a light pair of skis to goof around for really cheap, it is a fun experience. But as an advanced alpine skier, I would see you find them limiting quickly. Inbounds, I use them when the snow is tracked out but the groomers are still good. I didn't realize how much of a benefit they can be to my alpine skiing.
