Sounds like it's a double-standard for both sides of the fence, though, wouldn't you say?

Styrofoam, if anyone's still wondering.

Yeah, or Kay Too, or, or, uh, Ever ... Est.

Well, if people aren't going to bug the mags, and keep bugging the mags (unless they already are -- correct DFA if he's wrong), then there's no reason that PNW climbers are going to end up in there. Obviously, if there is indeed some sort of CO/UT bias (although aren't a lot of the hardcores in the mags from CA or back East?), it's going to be a fight to get them to recognize the PNW. If they don't even know that anything's happening over here, though, it'll stay that way. [ 10-15-2002, 11:47 AM: Message edited by: Dr Flash Amazing ]

Sorry to deflate your hopes there, boys, but this photo is clearly a sham. Note the sign in the background which reads "Totally Naked Toronto." Everyone knows the Doctor is from Portland, and is not chubby, bald, or a recreational nudist. Better luck next time, chaps!

It seems like if people either alerted the mags that they were climbing stuff in this neck o' the woods, it would get in there. Either that or if someone wrote an article about climbers or climbing or climbs in the PNW. The mags are full of Dean Potters and Dave Grahams because those folks have a name for themselves, and news travels quick about them (or, in the case of Graham, there seems to be some sort of press corps assigned to him). And of course a lot of these climbers are sponsored, so they are going to make sure their names keep showing up in the mags in order to collect the $$$ and the free gear (like the self-portrait photo of Dean Potter atop Cerro Torre(?) recently where he's holding up his [name brand] ice axe off to the side of his head -- product placement, baby!).

You sure you boys don't want to switch to the Leftist protester camp? Something tells the Doctor that you'd love to get behind the "NO WAR" cause ...

My twisted hippie mind yearns for bleeding heart liberalism. I can't really climb anything but I claim to. I wish I could be a mountain climber but I am too much of a wussy to try it. Please do the world a favor and shoot me between the eyes. Now you are coming to Flash Actually, Caveman, with the exception of the hippie crap (never) and the death wish, you've pretty much got it there. To bleeding heart sport weenyism!

don't forget to wipe, dude!

"I will not wash my hands from this day to eternity." Well, that's sound medical advice in any case. Also, the Doctor may be at Smith this coming weekend, in case you'd like a photo and autograph for your scrapbook. Autographed Dr. Flash Amazing Inspirational Calendars (wall size, desk size, and day planner available) will also be for sale, as well as advance copies of DFA's new book 'How to Become a Hard Rollin', Pimp Strollin', Bad-Ass Sports Climbing Machine with Way-Ripped Abs in Just 12 Weeks'. Should be quite an event; just watch for the flash bulbs going off.

Iain, it's called Dr. Flash Amazing Commemorative Route #73. The other 72 are scattered around Smith and other well-known climbing areas around the country.

Injuries are bunk! Get better, punk!

What the hell's a "sooner?" Obviously it's some school's mascot, but what the hell is it?

Caveman, you're hardly the arbiter of cool-headed reasonability, and hardly innocent of brashly interjecting your opinion, either, so you're welcome to step down from your tall pony. This is an internet message board, and usually when people see something that they agree with, disagree with, want to make fun of, are stoked about, or whatever, they say something. If it's way too much for you to have someone respond negatively to something you post here, you're taking it way too seriously. All the Doctor did in the first place was point out that climbing mags do in fact run a good bit of alpine and trad stuff, and not just sport climbing fluff (which is what you seemed peeved about). This was followed up by a little good-natured ribbing about reading the mags yourself. This site would be drier than a mouthful of chalk without the little jabs that get traded back and forth all the time. Why turn that into such serious anger? It doesn't mean shit. As far as Dr. Flash Amazing changing his persona; fat chance. If a couple people can't see through the ridiculously overblown ego and realize it's just theatrics and want to take DFA so seriously as to flip their shit, well, that's their deal. Makes it kind of tough to just relax and talk shit on the internet, but so it goes. [ 10-14-2002, 03:58 PM: Message edited by: Dr Flash Amazing ]

Was this a case of rope-on-webbing friction causing the rap anchor to break, perhaps? Ugh, how awful; you never imagine something like this happening on such a short, innocuous little rappel like that. Blasted bad luck and misfortunes!

This just in from www.algoreweb.net/news.html/greg_w "Greg, I just want to thank you for being such a leader in the effort for bi-partisan get-alongness and in general an ambassador of good will from the right wing republican gun-enthusiast faction. I was going to tell you in person, but I couldn't get ahold of your address, so I stopped by your mom's place and gave her a big ol' democratic hug instead! Here's to you, tiger!"

Huh? Hold on, DFA is still puking from those gawd-awful images.

No, but DFA noticed that his new Sube is sporting a "Team Crafted in [forgot what city], Indiana" sticker in the driver's side rear window. Fuck who owns it and who put it together, the key is who designed it.

Hear hear for being bored at work w/sunshine outside. DFA could be doing productive and fun work with the homestead instead of this computerized crap. Columbus was a murderous imperialist tool. Down with Columbus! Is today in celebration of his death, at least?

Trask, you are one sick puppy, that's all there is to it.
