Trask, Take meds soon. Sincerely, DFA

And then Bush is all "no child will be left behind", and then all the schools cut a few weeks off their school year and they laid off the teachers. Here's an idea: Bush is a fucking liar and a worthless excuse for a president. And he rigged the shit out of that fucking election, the idiot son of an asshole. HAMM'S!

Nice location, RobBob!

The aggro fucks up the flow. Can't focus on key stuff like staying calm and de-pumped and workin' the feet and all that when you're keen on smashing something. Dr. Flash Amazing advises smashing whatever you need to smash or bashing whomever you need to bash, having a beer or six and a good night's sleep, then hitting the crags. Otherwise your anger is just going to cause you to plummet off your proj, which will just make you more irate, causing you to throw your shoes in the river and curse your belayer, and then you'll just be more pissed, and it'll all be downhill from there.

Wait, weren't we talking about Self-Loathing Camping Devices? Like the new Malden Bi-Polar Fleece?

C'mon, rb-dub', you know as well as anyone that DFA doesn't need to drug anybody to bed them. Something about a stethoscope, scrubs, and that singular wit seems to be irresistible for most. You poor groupie. You're in denial, aren't you? Why don't you swing by the Amazing Clinic some time and we'll talk it over?

Hey, that's you chiming in, Mr. Sheep-in-the-Hood. Anyway, apparently when strong Frenchman Marc LeMenestrel visited Smith a few years back, he onsighted a bunch of routes up to .13c or so. The hardest of these onsights, he said, was our little friend Split Image. Just imagine! Must be a pretty ill rig.

What? Didn't you get the memo? If you ain't been sit startin' you ain't been getting the send. Back to the crags, slack-a-nadian!

Where are we meeting again? And, like, when? Should the Doctor pick up some Vicodin for everyone on the way over?

These are excellent cramming devices, and they're relatively inexpensive and suitable to a broad range of things and whatnot. Purchase immediately for most effective usages.

Confidential to Iain: No more power-snacking on Nerds and Big Gulps; they making you spazmo.

HWM - 'Fuel for the Hate Game' Tito Puente & His Orchestra - 'Dance Mania Vol. 1' (okay, so a few of the Spanish words make sense, but not enough of them)

Yeah, "Spily Image", that's it!

That looks like the inside corner adjacent to Made In the Shade and the infamous Split Image. According to Mr. Watts, it's ... Cling On! Now pay up, sucka!

It's worth noting that Dr. Flash Amazing, sports climbing know-nothing-knot-related non-bowline-tyer extroardinaire was able to successfully and satisfactorily learn to tie this knot into quite the trim and bomber tie-in mechanism. Maybe your alpine ass just needs to practice a little more, 'cause it's far from complicated, and if executed correctly, is a thing of beauty and top-notch function, and not the misshapen monstrosity you describe. Back to the 'Klutz Book of Knots', gaper!

Corporate bloodbath.

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=repellent See #2 in the first definition. And make a note to your smart self: Don't fuck with DFA unless you damn sure you know what you're talking about. Toodles!

Bowline = not the same as the uber-safe DBBB. Get your shit right.

What? Why would the Doctor want to hang out with a bunch of clowns who don't even go to the gym? Like, how fun could that be? Plus you'll be hard to spot since DFA doesn't know what you all look like. Will you have those foot spike thingies you wear on your mountain boots? Or should Dr. Flash Amazing simply stroll about the pub until his color-coordinated Prana outfit and spotless approach shoes spark riotous derisive laughter, indicating the correct table? Seriously, though, DFA can't make it, as Iain is coming over to play cribbage and have tea and scones.

Hey, hey, let's all be nice to one another and get along like kindergarten, shall we? No bogarting the crayons, etc.

Caveman, You're as repellent as ever. Dr. Flash Amazing wisely predicts a repeat banning performance within 40 days. Clock's ticking, you vile oaf.

Blasphemy! PERISH, INFIDEL!

That's the anecdote in question!

has anyone ever actually done this?!?! if you have...let me know, cause i dont wanna climb with you... You've seriously never heard of this happening? Shit, one of DFA's friends did it several years back. Luckily, it was on 5-Gallon Buckets, and DFA saw what was happening and hollered, so the knot only got about 25 feet up and we were able to just climb up to it. Just like most climbing mistakes or accidents, it only takes a momentary lapse in attention, and then you've created an obnoxious pain in the arse. *EDIT* And the set-off-climbing-with-an-unfinished-knot trick has been performed by both Dan Osman (who looked down and watched his rope slide out of his harness, and managed to down-solo to his last bolt and get clipped in) and Lynn Hill (who pitched off a route in France, fell into/through a tree, and cratered from 60 feet [?] up, fortunately escaping with only busted ankles).
