  1. hey didn't my post specifically mention not crossing over the spring ski in???
  2. yay!!! great idea that time of year i think smith is the best bet for planning around the weather. what about the w/e of 4/17??? that would work alright in my schedule or 4/3 if the spring ski-in isn't that w/e?
  3. any of the other cc.com wankers going to be there?
  4. bug- you fortunately it was mostly rock gear. i think i'm still good for lib ridge still finding what's missing but i don't think anything to significant for rainier is gone. i think i'm going to head into second ascent sometime this week, myself. after all, i do need a few things i do just want to say again, as bas this sucks, the sting has really been taken out by how helpful everyone has been. thanks to the help from some folks on this site i'm going to be able to climb this w/e. to the folks here at cc.com. all of you have offered help in various ways have beer waiting for you.
  5. this is probably the lamest reason not to lower of chains... i hate to do it b/c i always worry if i've tied back in properly!
  6. b/c i am paranoid of rappelling, i have taken to adding one probably unnecessary step to the procedure but it makes me feel better. at the anchors, i will use one sling or daisy chain clipped to the anchor that isn't bearing my weight while i'm cleaning. i clean the anchors, set up my rap, weight the anchor and rope with the longer sling still attached to the anchor. once i've weighted the system, then i'll remove this last piece of personal protection and rap. this isn't always possible, or even necessary. but if i'm feeling at all worried about my rappell i've started doing this.

    This is total bullshit. Noone makes you feel anything; you choose to feel that way. And badvoodoo, she worked hard to create her wealth. How is that being a bored, rich, waspy housewife? She has tons of energy and drive. Unfortunately, she chose to break the law and has to pay the piper. I think CBS is right; it's pure jealousy. greg-stfu. don't try and add a bunch of psychoanalysis into that comment. blug

    i don't like martha b/c she makes it seem like doing all that stuff is simple, easy and takes no time at all. she makes me feel inadequate b/c my table doesn't have a centerpiece, i haven't made some nifty placemats, prepared a 3 course meal each night and my home doesn't have a "decor". she makes it seem like being a domestic goddess is a piece of cake and we should all be doing it...not trouble.
  9. it was stolen from snoq. pass. so the greater seattle area. i'm a total gear whore so i too watch for good used buys. if someone gets a bargain deal on my gear, i'll reimburse them if they return it to me. i would like to add a positive note to this: i've received some very nice and helpful PMs from folks. i really appreciate the help guys! cc.com is a good community and it's nice to be reminded that there are so many nice people out there! southernmtnguide s
  10. fortunately it appears that the shoes and harnesses will be replaces this week or else suicide might be on this weeks "to do" list. the thief was kind enough to leave me a chalk bag. thanks buddy! we've located 6 draws and a couple of reversos in the gear room. i still have few slings and biners so i don't think i'll need to be talked off the ledge but it was close for a couple hours

    My tale of woe

    could you add my rack to your insurance claim?
  12. i am so sorry for the friends and family of the victim. i sincerely hope that those of you were there and helped are dealing with this ok.
  13. i will definitely keep an eye on ebay!!! good reminder. i would just like to thank anyone who happens across this creep, locates my gear and then takes the largest cam from my rack thwacks him upside the head with it!
  14. ALL OF OF MY CLIMBING GEAR WAS STOLEN LAST NIGHT. A COMPLETE RACK OF CAMS 3 HARNESSES AND 3 SETS OF SHOES. IF ANYONE SEES ANY OF THESE ITEMS FOR SALE ANYWHERE PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THEY ARE MARKED WITH BLUE AND ORANGE NAIL POLISH. THERE ARE DOUBLE BD CAMALOTS FROM .75 - 3. TCUS IN THE SMALLER SIZES. THIS IS JUST ABOUT EVERY PIECE OF GEAR WE HAVE. AT THIS POINT I CAN'T EVEN CLIP FRIGGIN BOLTS.

  16. i would just like to point out that on occasion, i have received helpful PMs and posts from the guys on this site on female related things. Shockingly, a lot of the guys who post here have wives and/or g/f who climb. it may be second hand info but it's been useful. i'd hate to exclude this sort of input from a women's forum.
  17. i don't know if she deserves 20yrs in jail for this but it is sign that kharma is real!
  18. Last time this topic came up, it was troll. i didn't realize it and posted that i think it's a bad idea. i still do. we've fractured cc.com into enough different forums based on climbing specific reasons. lets not make gender a climbing issue. except that i hate that most of you guys are taller than me and can reach that hold "right there"
  19. ...and lederhosen. Don't forget the lederhosen. i really really wish i could forget the lederhosen. that image is burned into my brain and the nightmares won't stop.
  20. i didn't know you had one left
  21. greg already is ugly....
  22. frankly, i can bought. distel i'll hand over my password to you in exchange for babysitting.
  23. should've gone for the prenup. no way you're getting those back now
  24. rob- the thing to remember here is that these are guidelines...not rules. just some thoughts from the mods as a group. i would've been perfectly happy to leave it at "what goes around comes around" most of this verbage comes from other mods. i thought a spray mod should be the one to post it. we're not going to start banning and deleting and refering to a violation of "line 5 of the guidelines post" we're just trying to throw some stuff out there for people who don't seem to understand why their posts have been deleted. like you said, we're all just avatars here...don't take this so seriously. it's just some ideas.
  25. you'll shoot your eye out.
