  1. "The test of any man lies in action." Michael Moore has dedicated his life to criticising the actions of others. He even looks the part of a fat lazy fuck.
  2. trasky eats Assy?
  3. Iain, I miss the tinny, putt-putt sound of the VW Beetle engine. It's gone the way of the steam-whistle.
  4. I like Goat for his predicability. No salutations or joking around. No chit-chat...he just launches into the monotone of the debate. He's the Mike Tyson of the debating club.

    Music and Memory

    Here's a hump-day question for you: I've always thought that music is somehow an "adhesive" in your mind's memory bank. Music is inseparably interwoven with some of my strongest memories, particularly the good ones. Yesterday I figured out the first pop song that played over & over in my head when I was a kid. It was Billy Joe Royal singing "Down in the Boondocks" and I was playing on the beach near my house (I must have been 5 yo). So my question is, what's the first tune you remember playing in your head?
  6. uh-oh, I see mtngoat is making a reply...incoming!
  7. ...with the pain from red being infinitely worse. Too much white upsets the guts. But too much red is a form of torture.
  8. mattp, Also of note is the relativity of $150 immediately after you have had the first two glasses of a really good wine. Many a second, unaffordable bottle has been ordered in this manner. Also, it was Ovid way back in Rome, in Ars Amatoria (a "player's guide" written 2000 years ago), who wrote "beware of the low lights and wine" when trolling for the ladies. We know that today as the trask phenomenon, or coyote-ugly.
  9. There are a few animals out there that will leave some chocolate on yr stuff fuh ya.
  10. When I was in college, backpacking around Europe, the proprietor of a fondue hut in Switzerland refused to serve us our cheese fondue without wine (we asked for water because we were almost broke). After we told him we couldn't afford it, he disgustedly gave us wine for free, saying he wasn't going to let us ruin good fondue by having the water give us an upset stomach. Freeclimb's right, red wine is known to contribute to headaches (along with chocolate and other foods). But good red is mighty good.
  11. Can, but doesn't anymore. Gore, on the other hand, slides under the table after his two half-glasses of white zin.
  12. Fairweather, What's the real story on Gore? Were those "rim" photos really taken behind the hut? Inquiring minds want to know.
  13. Good one, DFA
  14. You guys got better taste than I thought! Some good cheap Chards are available from Austrailia also, although some are just too damn oaky. Penfolds Kanooga and Jacobs Creek both can be found for good prices.
  15. I had an engineering prof whose favorite epithet was "For cryin' outside!"
  16. Hey, there must be a whole series of these pics! They weren't taken at the same time...different outfits and the shadows are different. This is getting more intriguing...
  17. sc, I don't know how much the 1-man walrus weighs. I can attest that while my large walrus tent isn't the lightest in its field, the thing is tough and well-made.
  18. You got my 5 star appreciation vote Trask will give you the votes on all 26 of his avatars if you post more.
  19. Thanks ChrisT! It looks like your outdoor adventures are more fun than Iain's.
  20. and it's also obvious that you are plumb out of tent-yoga photos. damn.
  21. Why are you two posting this drivel on this thread? It's supposed to be about Walrus tents and yoga photos.
  22. Fixed it Iain. I figured since that was on a Deutscher record site, it must be the latest. I was gonna do that next time I'm in a German bar, and everybody's dancin' on the tabletops to Sex Bomb.
  23. What does this mean? shokka
  24. I thought it was a "hook 'em horns."
  25. ...and you never posted YOUR yoga pics for us!...
