I figured I'd leave the mark of limecat off. I did, however, send a threating not to the religious nazi right threating a beat down at the paws of limecat.

Figured a few might find this interesting. I just sent this note to Americans United for Seperation of Church and State:

Here is the national aviation weather site: http://aviationweather.gov/ Below is a link to the SFO (west coast) area forecast. Judge for yourself, but they aren't all that readable to me I remember for the brief time I took flight lessons with my dads just kind of staring at these blindly as my instructor looked over them: http://aviationweather.gov/products/fa/dynamic/sanfrancisco_fa.shtml

I've found it's generally this order... mostly cloudy partly sunny partly cloudy mostly sunnny sunny Why they can't just use cloud cover %s like they do in aviation forecasts is beyond me. I think they get more room for wild ass guessing with this system.

Running around is different than hanging from a broken tree over concrete.

As Paul said I was just being helpful. If you had been on this site for more than 10 days you would know that people generally appreciate articles, etc. from other pages pasted in the article. I also posted just the ones that Paul mentioned specifically. Yes, the are vauge. It's pretty hard to lay out guidlines such as "Shot 4 enemies, decapitated as least 1, and wounded at least 5" Given the description of those 2 medals, I'm still interested in how you get critisizng Kerry for his service yet backing up GW's time in the rich kid flying club? The National Guard is the rich kid flying club? Which branch were you in? It is well known that his unit was one that hosted quite a few high profile "connected" kids. I was not referring to the NG as a whole. Just answer the question, how do you critisize carry's recognition. You seem so willing to claim he wasn't brave, but last time I checked you were never there.

More evidence of the extreme retardation of the religious right. Fuck them. The funniest shit ever is when somebody driving a X car has a logo of calvin pissing on X. I see this a lot of Hondas. WTF? Are you too dumb to realize that pissing o your car is a BAD THING!?

Bellevue (and Remond, And Issaquah...) just suck in general. They are a black hole of culture.

Kids should be encouraged to run around and shit. I am sure glad I was.

Silver Star: "b. The Silver Star is awarded to a person who, while serving in any capacity with the U.S. Army, is cited for gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing foreign force, or while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which the United States is not a belligerent party. The required gallantry, while of a lesser degree than that required for the Distinguished Service Cross, must nevertheless have been performed with marked distinction." Bronze Star: ". The Bronze Star Medal was established by Executive Order 9419, 4 February 1944 (superseded by Executive Order 11046, 24 August 1962). b. The Bronze Star Medal is awarded to any person who, while serving in any capacity in or with the Army of the United States after 6 December 1941, distinguished himself or herself by heroic or meritorious achievement or service, not involving participation in aerial flight, in connection with military operations against an armed enemy; or while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing armed force in which the United States is not a belligerent party. c. Awards may be made for acts of heroism, performed under circumstances described above, which are of lesser degree than required for the award of the Silver Star. d. The Bronze Star Medal may be awarded for meritorious achievement or meritorious service according to the following: (1) Awards may be made to recognize single acts of merit or meritorious service. The lesser degree than that required for the award of the Legion of Merit must nevertheless have been meritorious and accomplished with distinction."

Yup. I have a pair of the exreme Ss and just the regular Ss. The Extreme S is a better glacier mountaineering boot. The regular S rocks for approaches, alpine rock, etc. I'm really happy with it.

No, ff, I wasn't saying that to you directly. I was simply stating that anybody that participates in that kind of shit and writes it off as a hamrless prank needs to have a little self-exploration time. Maybe johnny likes boys and not girls??
-
I keep hearing the "college fraternity prank" comparison. I'm sorry, but if that is the kind of shit you consider hazing you really better have a lot of self exploration about your own homosexuality.

1. Nixon wasn't actually impeached since he saw the very obvious writing on the wall and resigned before it could happen. Clinton is the one. Unlike Nixon he stood his ground because he knew he didn't do shit wrong that negatively impacted this country. Like he expected, the senate didn't convict him. Why do you guys give a shit so much about Clinton getting his dick sucked? Lying about reasons to go to war, torture, etc. is a lot worse than lying about getting sucked off by the office intern. Ironically his favorable rating went even higher after the incident!

The gear sages at R&I are quite stupid then. You could certainly do it, but I think any sane person would want a little more of a waterproof and warm boot. They are basically a very stiff light hiker. Not what I would persnoally want for 12k on rainer.

We are certainly the most logical output for their anger. They see us as another ressurection of the "christian crusaders" It's easy to see how they came to this conclusion; christianity has done it's best to conquer and destroy other societies ever since it became large. I (and it seems a lot of other people here) dont like it all that much, so I can certainly see how they would hate it. We need to cut our ties to that government. You don't need enemies when you've got friends like them.

Where there is a will, there is a way... THE NFS is going to be pretty careful about telling people it's crossable since they dont want inexperienced people getting themselves swept down the river or something. I'm 99% sure you can find a crossing either up or down the river if you try.

You can be a loose canoon off the cuff nut and still be completely unable to form your own policy decisions. It's pretty easy to yell that you want to invade iraq then leave it up to your co-conspirators to take care of the matters. Why are you completely unwilling to entertain the idea that isn't the greatest leader and he has some serious faults? I highly doubt you know any more about this than any of us do, and I'm sure I buy that the sources all are made up.

Nope, neither time...mostly due to perot running both times. wasn't perot's 17% or whatever in the 1992 election a record for an independent? A major difference between the elder shrub and clinton is that clinton was enormously popular, bush wasn't Bush Sr. is so completely better than his son tho. I dont honestly know all that much about Sr. as a pres, but I dont think he is a genuinely fucked up individual like jr. is. Last time I checked sr. never had some illusion he was mandated by god either, unlike his whacko son.

If you'd read carefully you'd see a *lot* of these people (myself included) are asking about very specific snow conditions for the sake of skiing, etc. The cascades aren't one big homogenous range. Go compare the snowpack at 6k east of wa pass with the snowpack at 6k around cascade pass. Whether it's a good snow year or bad, the snowpack from region to region can vary significantly. There is nothing wrong with trying to solicit information about a specific area if people have been there.

I'm pretty sure that glover cleaveland that shows up twice. He is the only prez to serve two non-consecutive terms. Taft came immediately after roosevelt, which is where his picture is.

what does that have to do with sandwhiches? cool rock tho!

My only beef with skis is it does take some amount of skill to climb steep technical terrain without hitting the fucking tips on the slope above. It's scary to move up to another placement and get bounced back by the skis.

Yeah, I have said this from the beginning. "God's will" is the same argument the terrorists use. He's an evangelical nut.
