You'll know you have it from the smell. Horrible greasy burps and gas. Metronidazole is the treatment. It's a drug developed long ago for gram negative infections like gangrene and other anaerobic infections. Since it is prescribed so infrequently, the bugs still haven't developed a resistence to it.

It's about time.

That looks like Richard Keel!

The example you cited above doesn't seem to be one that approaches your hypothetical cutoff point. Muscular Dystrophy is a fatal disease. When it comes to genetic treatments, the determining factor will be whether money is available for clinical trials. It's just as simple as that.

Do you know for a fact that neither the Lockspot or Sloop have cider?

How about the Sloop? or the Lockspot?

Do you miss your birds? Let's Dance

Little Johnny Jones he was a US pilot And no shrinking violet was he. He was mighty proud when World War III was declared. He wasn't scared, no siree! And this is what he said on His way to Armageddon! So long mom, I'm off to drop the bomb, So don't wait up for me. But while you swealter Down there in your shelter, You can see me, On your TV. While we're attacking frontally, watch brinkley and Huntley, Describing contrapuntally The cities we have lost. No need for you to miss a minute of the agonizing holocaust. So long Mom, I'm off to drop the bomb, So don't wait up for me. Although I may roam, I'll come back to my home Although it may be A pile of debris. Remember Mommy, I'm off to kill a commie, So send me a salami and try to smile somehow. I'll look for you when the war is over, An hour and a half from now.

I think I should be able to make it, considering I'll be in Ballard that day. So it was proposed, so it shall be done. I think it was Yul Brenner we're parodying here, isn't it?

hell, i had that very issue w/ a pretty big-name climber on this board, after driving 3 hours north too - w/o a damn word either - luckily i had brought stuff for a solo outing. you only get to do that kinda shit once. I can top that. I got stood up by someone on this board after travelling all the way to Joshua Tree. Fortunately for me, I had other friends from this board with whom to climb. Best advice I can offer is not to rely solely on PM's as the day of the climb approaches. Make sure you give each other a phone number in case you have to cancel. Lastly, if you do have to cancel, if you can find someone who can go in your stead, it could make a huge difference. I've done this before.

There is a cam or something with a green sling buried deep in the crack below the roof. I didn't get a good look at it. It's probably there for good.

Lord knows why the piton is there. There is a perfect Yellow Camalot placement three feet below it. Maybe it's a really old piton.

And I'm sure that plate of brownies is working its magic too.

I might be able to get insurance to pay for it. PM me with you office number.

Damn, that's a fierce kitty. What species of wildcat is it? I wonder if Archy would approve?

I've been dealing with low back pain myself. It's always stiff and sore in the morning when I get up. After an hour or so of movement, it loosens up and seems fine. It started after I'd spent a lot of time standing on a ladder installing windows and painting. This has been going on for about a month. I've been doing a lot of hard labor every day and I think maybe I just will have to take a week off for it to get better. What do you think, Mike? I have no history of herniation. The last x-ray and MRI was about five years ago and didn't show anything abnormal for someone my age. That was the last time I had a bad strain from a fall.

Hail, hail, the gang's all here, Never mind the weather, here we are together; Hail, hail, the gang's all here, Sure we're glad that you're here, too! Hail, hail, the gang's all here, We're a bunch of live ones, not a single dead one; Hail, hail, the gang's all here, Sure I'm glad that I'm here, too!

In climbing Cocaine Crack I noticed that there was a sewn shoulder length sling girth hitched to a piton under the roof. I got to wondering why someone would do that. It could be they bailed from that sling, but that seems unlikely as that would be foolhardy. Do you think they used it to aid the move around the roof? Maybe they girth hitched it because they figured the second would also need it to aid and couldn't clean it?

I think you made a Freudian slip. Your pants would say, WATCH your ass". Your tent mate would be the one to say, "WASH your ass".

I assure you, the early warning anti-aircraft system that we sold you is much, much better than the one we sold to Syria!

Are you talking about that decomposing Swauk sandstone slab? If that's the one you are referring to, it doesn't pique my curiosity one bit.

It would have been a good investment for the country as a whole but not for certain of our business interests who pull the strings.

When I saw Yoder in July, he said it would be out in September. Now that fall is here I hope it comes out soon.
