Something underhanded did go on. Many people believe that he left his brother to die so he could summit, when he could have turned around and helped his brother down the mountain to safety. That's all I know

No shit. To compare an insane dictator in a country with a long and battered history of people being screwed to a country founded by people trying make a more level playing field is a little skewed. Totally different aims. Communism(which by the way, was not what happened in the USSR, or anywhere else for that matter) and liberalism are not even in the same area code. Liberalism and Conservatism are both measured, appropriate responses to our prevailing system of government. Extremism, in any form, is not. If anything, the more fundamental disagreement is between libs and conservative types and libertarians.

you're so smart, Dru, you crazy Canuck! So it is fake!!

According to the source it is. Apparently they have to tow these things out of the shipping lanes off the coast of Newfoundland. Lookie here!

So is this pack ice or sea ice?

Liberal, conservatives, blind adherents to dogma, who fucking cares as long as they're not a threat to others, and can spell "Common" because I sure the fuck don't know what "commen sense" is.

That's a good rule of thumb, be it nautical questions on a climbing board, or sex from your woman.

Ooh, sorry, My scrollbar's broken. It only goes down halfway.

You asked that already.

My dog's a total spaz. I'm pretty sure he'll be good, I just wanted to get some words from peeps with taking the dogs in the deep. I don't think he'd tolerate those booty thingies on his paws either.

Spraying at the bar?! That would be like the most efficient waste of time ever!!

Wait, I thought Offwhite was the moderator? What happened? Well, it'll probably be good to have a female moderator. this board gets to be a sausage fest sometimes.

at the local bar does NOT mean I am in fact an idiot, only that I'm acting like one. Hey, when people come sit next to me at the bar and start getting snotty with ME, that's their problem. I mean they sat next to ME. I didn't ask them to. Sheesh, you ask somebody the same question three times and you're treated like a child molester. Why the fuck go down to the bar in the first place if YOU DON'T WANT TO BE AROUND DRUNK FUCKS?!! I mean honestly, if you want to hang out with sober people, go to the religious institution of your choice. You're SUPPOSED to get drunk at the bar, that's why they serve booze there. They don't serve booze at the library, right? People. Pffft!

That was from a Michael Moore show.

Thanks folks! Yeah, my dog drags me for a walk all the time. He's loved every condition he's been in, deep snow, rock slabs, wind blown crust, blah blah blah... the only things he seems to hate is when I brush him or bathe him. He's just never been in deep powder before. I imagine he'll just get behind me if he gets tired. Fucking dogs.

Wait a minute! He got popped for an open container (and not a duii, which is what would have happened in Eugene) and he actually has the stupidity to say that "I don't think Kern County needs that kind of leadership." I'm with you Trask, give me a MAJOR fucking break. What a tool.

Hmm, I didn't think of that..... Maybe I should send him to a Mounties class?

So I have a question for you dog owners out there. I've taken my dog with me plenty through snow, but almost always late season snow. I want to take him snowshoeing, but the snow will be waay too deep for the guy. So does anybody here take their mutt with them in deep snow? Paw protectors? He's pretty tough, but I don't want to hurt him.

That's awesome. The Joshua Tree

"Welcome to Starbucks can I take you order?" "Yeah, I'll have a double venti Caramel Eggnog Frappucino" "Nice Vest!" "Thank you! My daughter got it for me in Aspen!" "Will that be all?" "Yes" "The total comes to 5.90"

I agree, Ratboy, but I do get some comfort in knowing some Canucks are as bad as the average American in geographic knowledge.

I'm surprised Muffy hasn't jumped on this one. Oh wait, let me do it Muffy style: tahts pertyfuny Dcotrofd,

Thanks Jay B! I need an outer shell type thingy for snowshoeing, x-country etc. Their stuff looks awesome. I'm gonna get the Cloud Cap jacket.
