  1. Somehow I had you pegged as the "anti-klenke", but now I see I was wrong.
  2. I overheard some fellow at UW Rock telling a story about a bloke in France who took a sledge hammer to all the holds on some well known bouldering route or routes. I tried googling it up, but didn't find anything. Has anyone heard a similar story? For all I know, this could be ancient history.
  3. I heard they got an approvable letter from the FDA. Too bad Stefan.
  4. Someone told me you can tell when it's -40 when your spit freezes before it hits the ground. Probably applies to piss as well.
  5. Oh, are you referring to that pot dealer? The guy who got rich peddling dope. THAT guy?
  6. "A very common thickening agent Cabisil or Colloidal Silica, although pretty strong, is really not best for structural support. Use this when you need to fill for contouring. West Systems makes a Microlight Filler material that is designed for use as an easy-to-sand/shape filler. It makes a mixture that looks like a chocolate shake and when mixed really thick, can create a formable gel. Great for filets!" The microlight filler is also known as Microballoons. I believe Aerogel is another name for the lightest of colloidal silicas.
  7. The Beatles, although they didn't have the same longevity. No other band comes close, including Led Zepplin, though certainly a worthy band, no question.
  8. Dude, I can't see Hello Kitty and not think "Dru!". I guess it makes you a "hybrid" avatar?
  9. Lithuim_161, Neswstar, lowlght and others may or may not be misspelled intentionally? How about those forgotten avatars? MaideninherPeak, Lord_Albert_Winchester, Markus_Twighticus...
  10. Spray is where it's at today! Today shall be proclaimed National Spray Day!
  11. Seems to me that the default should be "Older than 1 Week". I can usually find stuff newer than a week by just browsing.
  12. Good Earth Tea. Can't be beat.
  13. Toast used to like that place. I've been there once or twice.
  14. Do you think there is a market for a special climbing helmet that shields the wearer from government mind control? I hear that foil works. Foil is light and can be incorporated into the lining of the helmet.
  15. In Search, a check box that specifies that you would like only the original post displayed and none of the replies.
  16. Nine pages on "Do you wear a helmet?" in a day.
  17. I shit you not. When I get back to civilization, I'm going to get me a hoagy THIS BIG. And I'm going to eat it in one sitting. And I ain't sharing!
  18. Damn! I knew it!
  19. Love that kicker. We don't know anyone who lives in Chilliwack do we?
  20. Certainly, things have been relatively quiet, politically, for the past couple of years. Glad to hear the place is cleaned up again.
  21. Well Barry, boards certainly have better edges than butts. Butts don't have much directional control at all.
  22. Dru, you posted that because you thought we'd enjoy that? What a kind soul.
  23. Seems like it's been a couple years since the last gumnut attack. cc.com's service has been remarkably reliable. I imagine that for a short time this afternoon productivity spiked upward in alarming fashion. It will drop down to it's former levels and below tomorrow as people "catch up" on all their important spray items.
  24. Mack Bates did it in a day back in the 1980's, while he was writing the Three Fingers book. He ran into a couple of old fellows wearing back packs. When he told them how far he had come and how far he was going, one of the men said, "We used to do 40 miles back in the day, but not THAT far". Mack instantly knew who he was talking to. It was non other than Harold Engles, retired former chief ranger for the Darrington district, about whom he was writing.
