  1. and you thought you were actually climbing last weekend? does smith rock actually exist? is DFA's chain beta merely a failed algorithm in an endless loop?
  2. used to see that stuff out in front of the frats down in Corvallis when it used to snow. Cops had to drive around knocking them down presumably because some old codger called it in
  3. damn I was hoping to salvage some replacement window rollers and stock radio for my jet ranger on blocks in my driveway
  4. almost as ubiquitous as the whales in space artwork really.
  5. I've got one of those and love it too. It was a little slick at first but a few days of smith took care of that
  6. I'm surprised chepe hasn't had something to say about this
  7. another day another avatar. he'll be back unless they ban him via ip address or something
  8. cletus I hear you and I still like to let it rip on my r:ex/freerides but I learned how much fun it is to try something new when I started skiing on plastic mtnring boots and light skis. It felt really cool to be able to cruise around the mountain with these things and feeling the snow under your feet rather than the dead feeling alpine gear brings (which is a good thing in crud). I also do a lot of survival skiing on searches in canyons and stuff where I'm making a lot of kick turns and skiing rolling terrain where AT gear can be a bit of a pain sometimes. Just something new to try. Thanks everyone for the great advice, maybe when I get some cash I'll get some atomic superlights, until then, I can borrow from some friends.
  9. they can't roar because they all have to wear those little earpieces and the translation would be a pain in the ass.
  10. I thought Bill Nye lived up in Seattle what's your take on the vinegar volcano?
  11. Perhaps the UN should put you in charge. Clearly you have a better understanding of the situation than these weapons inspectors based on your first-hand observations and evidence in the middle east. Do you work for the Bush administration? You put up this pretense that you weigh facts rationally, yet you essentially are behaving like Ari Fleischer on this board, defending to the end everything Bush does, probably even if you believe deep down he may have made a mistake here or there. I don't care one way or the other, but that's how you come off on this board.
  12. yeah I figured the spring snow is so boring at times that it is time to try something new. thanks for the advice!
  13. that was some funny stuff I came across while looking for the turd eating dog thread. just had to bump it.
  14. .
  15. see? works like a charm. here's another: CENTCOM in Doha, Qatar A10 tank killer
  16. just because you got a low score and shouldn't be a citizen is no reason to be grumpy
  17. what you want people to sit around like a bunch of pansies and talk out their problems? (actually I just wanted to respond to the 8 most recent topics)
  18. the tv media is hilarious, how they have small chunks of words they rearrange all day to make the news. these words can never be broken apart, but can be rearranged to make new sentences as new news is needed: "ruling baath party" "kurdish-controlled northern iraq" "special republican guard" "moab"
  19. ah this thread has the makings of a superclassic. she's got to believe that everyone here is totally insane.
  20. his dashing good looks and charming personality?
  21. what do you call an amish guy with his hand up a horse's ass? a mechanic
  22. I just accept that bivy gear is taken always (at least enough to survive a really miserable night, which might just be a bivy sack and a puffy jacket) and if there is a planned camp a megamid might be brought. just don't climb with clouds in the forecast!
  23. See now if this is true and was presented beforehand there just might be more support for this whole shebang. Hope they figure it out before we are labeled as the global chumps
