Cooper! Give that money back, you fuckin' scoundrel!

It wasn't a master key; they had figured out some way to use the keyless entry system. It was a master keyless ... thingy.

Greg, The rock hardness is part of the issue. In the case of the tuff at Smith, it's soft enough that bolts that get dogged on a whole lot (i.e. the 2nd bolt on Chain, or all the bolts on Churning) do eventually loosen up. Most of the time, it's not an issue, but there are some places, like those listed, where it is. Thus, glue-ins are a nice replacement alternative, especially if the bolt has been moved a couple times already, as was the case on Churning, apparently, which now sports the most bomber glue-in job ever created. Truly amazing bomberization job.

Ehhh, the board's buggering up again.

Given their usual condition, the Doctor would have to guess "loose." Although some potential good Samaritan was going to replace the second bolt, which is usually the loosest. Hopefully they used a nice 1/2" x 4" glue-in.

So, who would care to discuss something nonpolitical without being mean to anyone else?

Dear God, Please make half of the crag out of stellar granite with splitter, gear-eating hand and finger cracks of varying difficulties, so the traddies can get some too. Thank you, Dr. Flash Amazing

Dru's a burdensome illegal immigrant to our prosperous American bulletin board. The only solution here is to kill Dru.

Greg, If they came here legally, they'd still be dirt-poor and sending their kids to school, plus using all the social services you mention. And they ARE doing a lot of the work in this country that no one else wants to do.

I could have free health care from my parents but I use the health care from my work, instead. I don't have to pay for this except for deductables and stuff but it isn't free because i work for it. It is free; you're not paying for it. You may have to work for it, but you're not paying out of pocket, aside from your deductibles.

Allison, Start raising hell with your company. Get all your co-workers to chip in with their stories of shitty health care experiences because of the HMO, and keep bugging management to switch. You know, union-style.

Come on, freeclimb. You'd change your tune if you had seen their new soft shells and alpine packs for '03!

"... force people to have health care ..." Greg, Dr. Flash Amazing will buy you a damn beer next time he's in the Seattle area if you can find him one person who honestly wouldn't take effective free health care if it was given to them.

bobinc, that raises an interesting question. Do you suppose Republicans would be for or against abortions for pregnant terrorists' wives?

It's two TVs and a car, brah. Two cars and a TV must be what the poor in Canada have. Oh, and health care.

quote: Originally posted by RobBob: quote:How is it that our poor are so fucking lazy, and yet they have two TV's and a car, holmes? It's called Welfare, DFA. So, Greg is pointing out that on the one hand, the poor are too lazy and don't deserve any help. He is also pointing out that we have the richest poor in the world, a condition which Greg finds to be indicative of a sound America, and, it seems, stems from them getting welfare, a benefit which he does not condone. Removing welfare and assuming that the poor are still lazy, that would give America a huge number of very poor poor people, right? Would America still be such a fine nation?

Isn't it an old-school marshmallow-containing sweet junk food product?

How is it that our poor are so fucking lazy, and yet they have two TV's and a car, holmes?

Now you're fuckin' talking. DFA will use that as a key plank in his platform for the 2004 Oval Office bid!

You'll need to kick in global warming to a frenzy to get a new inland sea deep enough for a subtropical reef system to flourish. Then cut back on the CFC's let the ice form again in the polars, let the reef bury itself and let karst take care of the rest! No ice climbing, unfortunately, for the next several million years though. I'm afraid pioneer place would be a shambles too. Nonsense. God can just plunk the thing down in Pioneer Place, leaving room, of course, for the Starbucks. [ 11-06-2002, 01:41 PM: Message edited by: Dr Flash Amazing ]
