hey...check out my new couch surfing camo... what to wear when the wife is on a "honey-do" tear!

i would, dear, but then i'd have to get off the couch...

i only changed it so as not to trip up the dummies anymore...

hey, good job. I'm between 60 and 65. what kills me is people who think that going on a 10 mile hike, or biking to work is some gargantuan, strenuous, fitness-freak outing. "you bike from Bellevue... wow". actually, no, that's not much of a physical exertion - get off the couch and try to do something... i did get off my couch once, fell and hit my face on the foot stool...decided nope, not doing that again..."hey son, would you mind fetching the remote...that's a good boy!"

i wasn't talking to you! Plus, if one can't laugh at one's self, a person is doomed to a miserable life...foolish or not...

"BP 110/55, resting pulse 43: Cross Fit and I'm a LOT older than almost anyone on this board " i doubt that you are significantly older than a lot of folks on this board...

no self porn?? WTF!?!

ha...i'm 112/64...and that's in my tubby condition... so, we should bake some brownies up!!!

One route doesn't imply anything... Yah....gotta love tusarora quartzite sandstone... my point is that everything need not be turned into exit 38...

i think i'm gonna go home a bake up another tray of brownies...

no, he was implying that you can't have a lot of face climbing without significant bolting... and i'd like to see you jam those sideways letterboxes, MISS puget...you FACE climb them...

and all this time i thought some dry humping was going on!

no, ms. puget...try seneca or the gunks and count the bolts or stone mountain or moore's wall, or twall or sauertown, please be sure to report back qty's of bolts...and the meadows is hardly "rap bolted" although there are some... i've got a moonshine still under my desk...i am from west virginia you know...

sport cracks...hula hoops of the same size cam!!! what's not to love!!!!

by your argument, indian creek should have escalators up to the anchors.... don't you want some risk and adventure? At all?

what i say is that the general population is expected to be able to use road facilities with safety inherently built into them, and they also pay taxes for that right. This does NOT apply to climbing...if you think it does, well, we obviously climb for completely different reasons. When i was putting up routes, i never considered who was to follow...if you didn't like it, don't climb it. its your argument in reverse.

everybody's gotta pick on the fat kid...i'm gettin' sick of it!

Yeah….but why did they build the huge brand new concrete bridge and road to get to the boat ramp at Beacon? To make it safer. The pull out had a ridiculous blind spot…..so they moved the pull out down by a couple of hundred feet and added a bridge to access the same road. mmmm…..makes you think about why someone would add a bolt? Mmmmm…..maybe to make it safer? Just a thought. hey kevebone...not everyone thinks that every route needs to be sanitized...

Except I don't see bolting as an environmental attack like he does. Why doesn't he see the huge developement projects, LIKE the new rest area in Yos, or the new buildings there as real environmental destruction is beyond me. And frankly, I see the need for the new rest area, I draw the line at needless new bars, pizza restaurants, stores and hotels in that specific national park, but the NPS justs ignore my thoughts. ...i don't dwanus thinks those are "improvements" at all...he's just trying to keep climbing wild

not to aid the team douchebag-dwaynus... BUT, you are talking apples and oranges. That's like telling my son its ok to litter because there are landfills and its "just a speck"...

it'd take more than the two of you!!!

you don't get out much, do you? there's TONS of trad protected FACE climbing out there...and a lot of it isn't dangerous...

uhhh...that's not exactly true...check out east coast climbing, or tuolome, etc.

maybe they are trying to keep an idiot in suspense? I can see that its working...

thanks cliff...
