In 2 1/2 decades of climbing, i've seen a lot of stuff and tried a lot of stuff...I've soloed when i was younger, I've climbed R and X routes where falls would have been UGLY...I've projected/pounded routes to the point of completion and sometimes not...I've established bolted routes...I've established trad lines...I've gone and retroed my own stuff...I've been super fit...I've been (and am) grossly out of shape and still love climbing even though i suck at it...I've been utterly humiliated and I've been a super star (in my own mind). I've thrown wobblers you wouldn't believe where i didn't want to show my face later due to embarassment(do they still use that term, wobbler)? I've nearly wrecked the car driving into a canyon for the first time due to being utterly awestruck and dumbfounded at the beauty of a place...I've eurosportfagged it hard. I've ripped finger tendons. I've damaged shoulders. I've broken foots and ankles. I've climbed with old folks, young folks, been young & been getin' old. I've climbed shitpiles of choss, i've climbed pure white limestone over the mediterranean., i've climbed beautiful golden granite, fire red sandstone. I've had awesome partners, i've had shitty partners...I've been a great climbing buddy and well, honestly, i've been a shit too... You know what? I APPRECIATE every single chance i get to go climbing. I APPRECIATE every flavor of flavor of climbing, every chance i get and those chances are becoming fewer and further apart. The one thing in this life that really really bums me out is lack of time...if you think about it, even 10 decades is not enough time.

well...that would solve all sorts of problems, now wouldn't it??

chop

its all perspective, i guess...

there is no doubt that dude is a little "touched" in the head, as they say... very very impressive...

another word for REHEARSAL! OHHHHHH THE HORROR, THE NERVE...

Wow...that's the shit!! i can't imagine... ...how long until RainDork pisses on this one???

i see you found the stash of Joseph's STFU...why don't you take a swig of that and a nibble of NOOB cookie, bitch!

yep! I'm even shorter now...unfortunately the effect of that Sally pill, in addition to making me shorter, is making me retain water, so i'm bloated and bitchy too!

the effect hasn't worn off quite yet....

ps: Not by me of course...i accidentally swallowed a pill of SallyWankerIam...

or someone's gonna open a kegger of WhoopArse TM on him...

Joseph needs to chug a case of STFU!!!!!

oh stfu...

oh stfu up already....

minx and arch are pretty much hawt regardless of their attire...

computer brainz!

there's nothing inherently "human" or "natural" about responding in a particular way to a feat deemed "impressive"; it's a learned, calibrated response based on a shared sense of "values", a values of "appreciation". as such, it's an artifice of sorts, a tangential sublimation of of of.... loneliness? separation anxiety? in order to fit the established patterns of communality. having said that, i take back what i said about the creative, or non-creative, aspects of climb "rehearsal": once it ceases to be a "creative" act, it no longer carries with it the possibility of learning, so any "rehearsed" climb that leads to conventional success (or non-conventional) is inherently and neccessarily, by definition, "creative". dude...you need to lay off the peyote...

he's incredibly talented at acting the fool...
