  1. if they're saying "November" and they're using contractors (of course), me thinks January is being optimistic...
  2. Like someone pointed out, the cyclists did do something about it. But it also seems that this station crossed the line, even for a shock jock. encouraging physical harm against cyclists should be punishible by spending time in a federal "pound me in the ass" prison...
  3. I don't know if it's changed, but a law went into effect when I was there. It didn't prohibit using a cell phone while driving, but it did require you to use a headset. In other words, you can no longer hold the phone up to your head. Not a solution but a step in the right direction.
  4. or perhaps a conspiracy theorist would claim this is planned obsolencence....
  5. I just added the time/place/contact info... thanx, I posted pre-coffee...
  6. cc.com porn stash? Timm@y, have you been holding out?!
  7. I've been pretty happy with my Salomons (I know they're owned by Adidas, but the stuff seems to be different enough.) They've lasted for well over a year, and I expect to get at least 1/2 year if not a full year more out of them.
  8. Come to the Mazamas Discovery Night at Bridgeport Brewing! There will be short presentations from our activity committees explaining what they do, and a slide show with pictures from all kinds of Mazama trips showing throughout the evening. Come talk with experienced leaders, sign up for events, learn about our classes, and see what the Mazamas are all about!* * Disclaimer: we do not all wear shorts over polypro and gaiters, and don’t always travel in packs of 12, contrary to popular belief. Wednesday, October 22nd, 7:00 pm Bridgeport Brew Pub, 7:00 pm 1313 NW Marshall, Portland Contact info: 503-227-2345 http://www.mazamas.org/
  9. A radio station in Boston had a contest to give away "A hundred grand" When they finally got the right caller, they said he'd won and he was ecstatic until they told him he'd won a candy bar. What I don't get is, where do these people think the money for these prizes comes from? Small fanfare for a big giveaway is *always* too good to be true. If these people would actually think for not even a second, they'd realize that there's some sort of catch. The entity giving away the prize will be looking for some sort of payback greater than the prize they are giving away. Giving away $100,000 dollars would be a really big deal, much larger than it was played up to be on that radio station.
  10. here's another vote against sprint. I drop calls all the time, even in the city. As soon as my contract is up, I'll switch. I was under the impression that AT&T had the best coverage, but that was just an impression not based on actual data. Sounds like Verizon is the ticket. (As for coverage outside of the PNW, Verizon seems to have the best coverage in the Northeast.)
  11. uh, no. they only mentioned they were mountaineers when the offered to let us go ahead of them, that's how we found out. Get some new stereotypes
  12. oops, that would be a Mondayism.... I think I need
  13. isn't anything sexual with a minor considered statuatory rape?
  14. I'd just like to get a big thanx to the mountaineer group on South Early Winter Spire a week ago. We showed up after them, and they not only let us go in front of them. They were extremely helpful in giving any beta that we asked for, and they let us go in front because they figured they'd be slower. Oh, and for the record (I know this will come as a HUGE surprise to many of you), they weren't wearing polypro over shorts, and they weren't wearing gaiters... Thanx guys!
  15. yeah, just because he sucks donkey balls doesn't mean he doesn't belong here!

    Actually, he's an idiot regardless of what party he's in. The only reason I say "vote democrat" in the next election is that's the only way we'll get him out of office. If he was a democrat, I'd vote republican (and I really hate this stupid two-party system, a vote for any other party winds up being worthless in terms of getting someone elected.)
  18. nice loop! That's a mad fast time! Congrats! If you wanted to climb crater the easy way, the trail from crater lake (which you prolly went down) ends at a 3rd class (maybe 4th in places) gulley that eventually leads to the summit ridge. Lots of fun, and a good consolation if you get jacked on Jack. (I agree that the SE approach is much better than the SW for Jack)
  19. What the hell were you doing crossing the street with a walk signal? Sheesh. That's definitely not in the Boston Driver's Manual. from the Boston Driver's Handbook : Pedestrian Point Values
  20. Sharma-fest? I would have laughed if Sharma has missed the jump onto the stage... That guy's a sick climber though. I liked the Katie Brown butt-shot of her topping out (the one where everyone cheered.) Anyone else go to the "kegger" afterward? (only one free beer, the rest you had to pay for )
