School teacher should be the highest payed and most sought after profession. They have huge impacts on kids lives (I blame my climbing *and* my profession on my HS physics teacher), yet they get paid shit. WTF is a billion-dollar CEO doing to shape individual kids lives like that?

Count me in on this too. I've only done the trail once, but that was more than enough for me.

for the record, I liked the site... quite a bit of useful info

if you're looking to reduce resolution (thus reducing file size), check out http://www.irfanview.com/ batch resizing means you can resize all the images in a particular directory.

I picked up a RioRiot (20 GB mp3 player) for $135 a few months ago. It's USB 1.0 (so in other words, slow to transfer music), but once you get your mp3's on, it doesn't matter. The place I got mine from (http://www.compgeeks.com) doesn't have them anymore, but you might be able to find one elsewhere. It's no iPod though... Now that iTunes is available for windows, the iPod is the coolest thing EVER.

I have not developed a bolted route, so pardon me if this is a dumb suggestion. With regards to mattp's comments on tinkering, could you just place some non-permanent hangers (with some removeable glue or tape), then clip into them (with a trailing rope while still climbing on toprope) to see where the rope will go? This way there are no extra holes drilled into the rock if a bolt isn't in a good place.

oh yeah, ponderosa forest!

Matt definately does have a point here. It seems there are people here who will pounce on a TR, regardless of whether it's humble or a chestbeater, just for the sake of spraying on it.

Orbital also Underworld Same but different (ambient and relaxing, but certainly not techno): Michael Jones, David Lanz, Calvin Jones

I was in the Presidentials one winter and it was -30 F out. Then we climbed up to 50-60 mph winds in a whiteout (Mt. Madison), and I find it hard to believe it would have gotten much warmer up there. Good stuff.

j_b, I'm certainly not condoning any of Trask's remarks, but she chimed in before that. I was nominated for Cabin Boy, but you don't see me complaining. She came in as a downer before it turned sour.

would Beck be the "self-proclaimed King of Town"?

HR, but you said that his debating style was juvenile, when in fact yours is no better...

exactly, do you think these CEO's do 200 (or whatever the factor is) times the work of the average worker in their company?

umm, because living requires a certain minimum amount of money. food, shelter, clothes, etc. If someone is just barely making that, how can they survive if we take 10% (or more) off the top?

Holy crap! Necro has his first post that DOESN'T SUCK !

So why would you need an expensive pickup to begin with?

yes, but do they have superjubel (might be double jubel) at the pub yet?

hey princess, interested in cabin boys?
