    Based on what appears to be the results of a fair election, the majority of the country would not agree. Disrespecting the results of a peaceful democratic election because the outcome is unfavorable is not appropriate. Other countries should be so lucky to have the process we enjoy. If change is desired, voter opinion needs to be changed, and that's not going to happen by ignoring the election results.
  2. good stuff
  3. Silence, snow killer!
  4. he's going to re-engineer clock radios to have a 15 minute snooze button rather than a 10 minute one. The loss in productivity is mind-boggling.
  5. Yes I'm sorry, I stand corrected.

    The Dead Vote

    intimidation, polls. A choice adjective before Republican party might give this phrase a bit more kick. JUST KIDDING!

    The Dead Vote

    ad hominem would replace this entire paragraph. It's harpell's favorite mis(used/spelled) phrase!
  8. 1) So the other bolts on the route are not anchors? Anyway, it wasn't clear to me. 2) On a toprope sport anchor the whole discussion of same side or opposing biners on lead is moot. Since leading above draws is what the topic was about, I assumed this was in reference to leading above draws. 3) Seriously, you don't expect me to read that much text thoroughly...
  9. Well at the top of a sport climb I'll usually throw on a couple lockers and slings (though I think opposed draws are just fine at the top, they're always weighted), but the above post reads like someone taught the poster above to put locking biners on draws and use those on the pitch, and even use multiple draws on a bolt hanger, opposed. If true, this is insanity, in my humble opinion.
  10. At the risk of being the receiving end of a phenomenal troll, are you serious? Consider the millions of climbs done every day out there on quickdraws...
  11. "but if you're having fun, well, you're a damn good climber."
  12. The timberline cam is about the most depressing thing I've seen in awhile.
  13. You stfu. Did you not see my skirt of quicklinks? All your base, bitch. PS: Be sure to carry a depleted uranium umbrella on all sport climbs. Never know when that meteorite might have your name!
  14. This is why everyone should climb with chains of locking steel links instead of draws.

    It's a Lock!

    You know who kids would vote for if they could vote? I'm surprised the kids' soundbites did not include "me talk like Bush, me like" as a reason for the endorsement (which I believe a poster here has indicated as a positive thing )

  21. Bah, you shouldn't need to say that "I'm still learnin'" stuff here. Congrats! Everyone's "still learnin'".
  22. It might keep eggnog on the store shelves longer too! And that can only be a good thing.

  25. Relax dude, it's just a website. Now, which of my friends is a d'n'd world champ, and why do you know this? Were you trolling ebay for good deals on 20 sided dice? Yours are a little worn eh? P.S. I sufficiently loosened the last bolt on heresy with a coupla whips just for you this weekend see you out there
