I would guess that if you talked less smack you'd receive fewer bloody noses. Just a thought.

2 RBI's for Glen. Scott'didas would be the winner hands-down.

Maybe. I'll check.

Are we gonna loot REI? I think this thing should be held down in Olympia at the Capital or out in the mountains someplace like Snow Ck Trailhead.

We exisit to gratify ourselves in every way. Thing of Americans as being the gluttonous (SP?) people of the world. We consume more resources than any other country in the world. We pollute more than any other country in the world. This probably means that we are mostly thinking of ourself. We are destroying the world as we do so but no one seems to be trying to stop it. This is why I do all of these great outdoor sports. It is too easy to just live a normal life and it seems like climbing, skiing, fishing and music is what challenges me the most. I can also take it to a level that few people are capable of bringing it to. I am not an elitist, just passionate. Beautiful man, and all this from a guy who bolts cracks.

Sometimes, things get a bit scary, and I wonder "why the fuck do I do this?" And then I remember "oh yeah, this is why!" I would even go so far as to say that climbing is better than sex! Climb safe! It's gonna be quiet at the dinner table tonight....

quote: Originally posted by crazypolishbob: hey veggieboy, you are boring- sums it up. did you read or you need to go bacck to school again? the point of this whole thing was that people now have this notion that they can get rescued. look at the baker last week. the same thing. shit can happen and will happen. the problem is whaen it's easly preventable and causes more torment then necesary. and the fall out of the whole situation is that we'll have more regulation. after all the public doesn't want to cover costs of rescues like that. so the next thing we will have a $100 fee for climbing on rainier or hood or any other peak in washinton. so when you complain about it to you parner forking off another check payed to usfs or nps think about some stupid idiot who strated the whole thing. Not sure where you decided the point was no longer lives lost, but impending regulations on us because of this tragedgy, but I'll go with it. People who aren't climbers will ALWAYS have an issue with funding with climbing accidents. The accidents most will have a problem with won't require negligence or recklessness, but simply the fact that these accidents occur in a setting where 90% of the general society never will tread will create the problem. That makes our defense that much tougher. Our fight is not amongst climbers who decide one is more eligible for rescue than another, rather our fight is with general society who does not value our passion like like we do.

CPB, You sweet talkin' me? Dude, your tired, hard ass, Darwinism, B.S., I'm tough and everyone who dies isn't, survival of the fittest, I'm so cool, I can climb stuff and those guys couldn't, those guys shoulda, those guys shouldn'a, I call and ask other climber guys cause they know stuff, I post tuff stuff and nobody knows me, you guys are all gapers and I'm not, I'm blabbitty blabbitty, blabbitty, blabbbbbbby is only serving to end my Sunday on a

Seems kinda funny to hear him call it "our" fee demo program, but I guess it is....
