global sources Global sources has everything, it's basically a site that connects you to manufacturer in china and taiwan. Though it's more for production volumes, you can usually get samples if you don't mind waiting Try Pacific Iron down on 4th s., though I'm not sure what their fastener selection is like.

I never wash my hands.

don't get me started on vegemite smells like

I thought that was herpes?

why are red and yellow peppers som much more than green? I'm assuming it's like wine and taste is directly proportional to price.

"...expensive beer..." $6.75 for a pitcher of PBR at teddies? $4.00-$5.00 should be more like it. I don't remember anyone standing up, other than to use the head.

I think they are called the Iceflow. They a great so far. Not waterproof is correct, but toss a pair of OR mitts over them for the approach and yer set.

Regarding lounging snowboarders: Fuck em. It's their problem if they are sittin there and they get plowed into. And all the yahoos waitin at jumps? Just snake em. I hate that shit and I hate stoppin 50 times before I get to the bottom. These boarders are wankers and deserve a big roostertail of snow on them. PS I ride snowboards, in the past mostly at baker where this happens a lot. and people lounge around to go off some crap jump with a flat landing and shit. That's why I want to earn my turns this year.

Coffee crisp while in canadia

Toe jam, dinky doinks, hands off, the bong, boussonier (SP?), mikes books, gunsmoke. It was cold and f'n windy when I was there.

My favorite is snowboarding in crust where the board goes underneath and the crust plows yer shins.

Arent there houses and some sort of camp pretty far up? That may keep it somewhat clear.

I guess it's all a matter of perspective. Good/safe climbing coditions arent really the best for ski/boarding so icy/crusty can be good or bad. Crust over a bunch of soft snow could be problematic for a number of reasons, cause it might not be good for climbing or skiing. Did you get up on the route at all? Thanks for the info.

Icy huh? I was under the impression that was a good thing for alpine routes.

Boingy is good, less shock on the gear. It's just an observation about the different characteristics of half ropes as compared to singles.

You'll save a lot of money on tape. I'd never done the full on tape gloves, until I went to josh.

So what's y'alls opinion on these jewels? If someone pulled these out at the crag would you jeer or look on with jealous envy. I use tape when needed.

I was schrund climbing toproped with 1 icefloss and I fell and it stretched roughly 5 feet. Boingy.

5:00 I'm out. Time to drink.

You are quite the cunning linguist.

Is that a play on my wine rationale Mr Perkins? (or are they really twice as good). The way I see it is don't skimp on ropes.
