Vertical World allows ring on finger while climbing???
snoboy replied to erden's topic in Climber's Board
I have friends with a unique solution He was on the Czech national climbing team when there was such a thing. They all had sterling hexes to wear as necklaces. When they married, a new one was made for him, and his went to her. Cool huh? No rings, no worries... -
It's got something to do with ICQ or some chat thingy. And it only shows up when you are online. I think I see them most on alison and ??? We've managed to drift cavey's thread from a rant about getting posts snipped to a discussion of daisys and wether jon wears women's underthings...

I feel for you too. You might live in a valley, but you broke free today, therefore you are not a valley dweller of the pure sort. It is them that I am truley sorry for.

Friend did similar on Robson last year. He wasn't roped though, and took a good bit of snow in with him. Luckily he was wearing a transceiver. Barely made it out, thanks to some hardcore digging by his friends. Moral of the stories: always wear helmet, transceiver, rope, avalung, prussiks handy, and no jewellery!

Cool - It's like that a lot hear too. Up on the peaks above the Kootenay Sea. Makes it so much easier to live through winter. I feel for the valley dwellers.

I don't know what the general concensus is, but I certainly have an opinion... I have learnt over the years to not say anything to people, unless I see a life threatening thing about to go down. This lesson has been drilled into me by thankless climbers who treat me like turd when I have tried to make suggestions. Often I will just leave a crag rather than be around. Example: I was climbing next to a pair, one who was obviously more experienced than the belayer, although not neccesarily smarter. She was about to head up the climb, when I saw that the belayer had put the rope through the belay device, but not through the biner. I politely pointed it out, and got back a very non grateful thank you. In fact, if I hadn't been listening, it might have been a F#$% you! Chances are that nothing would have happened, as I'm sure the rope would have popped out pretty quick as soon as belayer tried to pull in slack, but who knows? People just don't like losing face when they are doing dangerous things. -
If your posts get yanked, do they come off your total posts? Cpt - You don't care what others think about you, maybe they don't care what you think of them either.[/end Cpt] There's lots of trash talk on this board. I guess the mods can do whatever they like with it. I personally find very little of it offensive, except for focused personal attacks. Most of it shines through as what it is: Trash Talk. Maybe timm@y should apply for a new domain, crascadeclimbers.com heh heh

Today at Red Mountain.....cold and sunny, with above average coverage, a perfect mid winter day, couldn't have skied in a t-......, yup it's the middle of January. F!@#$% Eh! It seems to be snowing again... I'd forgotten how dead it can be at a small hill on the weekend. Wouldn't that be a good thing, you know settle out some evil depth hoar and the like... Oh! I get it, you've got so little snow that you're worried it will all go away! "Just because I sleep with you don't mean I'll ski with you."

Where you at AlpineK? OR? I heard it was raining down there and one of the Hood hills had to close! We've been skiing freshiez lots up here!

Cobbler, gear store...

Hey, if y'all like him so much, why does he still have 3 ?
-
but not how to spell check, eh?

You obviously ski somewhere to busy. Best find a better place. I hasn't snowed here for three days, and I was skiing fresh lines all by my lonesome today! I love skiing with tunes. I find it screws me up in the trees though, not the right beat usually.
-
Yeah, Tami has that effect on me too, although sometimes it's that I'm laughing so hard that I couldn't say anything if I wanted to. Having worked retail, I especcially like "Scenario 3"

OK, so it's a little out of season, but I think it needs to come... to the top!

And he calls himself "king of spray"...

"Top 10 Posters," on the entrance page. Don't worry iain, you are #6, it'll probably take her a couple of weeks to bump you! Funny how much traffic this thread got once it was changed to "Girl Talk."

And I see you are gettin close to bumping sk off the top ten! Hope she doesn't take offense.

So??? If I wanted to hide that I was checking I could just got to "The Entrance" anyway. I notice there is a lot lower ratio of lurkers to reg'eds tonight!
