"A Life" by Edward Abbey, is really good, too. (as is anything he wrote, pretty much.)

and not so straight, he's much squigglier.

Ha ha ha haaaa ha Ha ha ha haaaa ha I know this much is true.

Really bad ingrown hairs?

Wow. I had to sleep that one off!

Always carry an extra wired.

nippilation!

That's a great book. A new perspective on baseball!

In a litiginous society, it seems this is inevitable. Unfortunately, peoples emotional response supercedes the impact of their actions. What ever happened to personal responsibility?

An excerpt for Dru (from Bryson's book): "For animals that need never surface, obscurity may be even more tantalizing. Consider the fabled giant squid. Though nthing on the scale of the blue whale, it is a decidedly substantial animal, with eyes the size of soccer balls and trailing tentacles that can reach lengths of sixty feet. It weighs nearly a ton and is earth's largest invertebrate. I f you dump one in a normal household swimming pool, there wouldn't be much room for anything else. Yet no scientist-no person as far as we know-has ever seen a giant squid alive. Zoologists have devoted careers to trying to capture, or just glimpse living giant squid and have always failed. They are mostly known from being washed up on beaches-particularly, for unknown reasons, the beaches of the south island of New Zealand. They must exist in large numbers because they form a central part of the sperm whales diet, and sperm whales take a lot of feeding.* *The indigestible parts of giant squid, in particular their beaks, accumulate in sperm whales' stomach into the substance known as ambergris, which is used as a fixative in perfumes. The next time you spray on Chanel #5 (assuming you do), you may wish to reflect that you are dousing yourself in distillate of unseen sea monster."

Let's hear 'em. We're talking top 5. I'm about 2/3 of the way through "A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson. Amazing book! Others: "The Immortal Class: Bike Messengers and the Cult of Human Power" Travis Hugh Culley "The Four Agreements" Don Miguel Ruiz The Tao of Health, Sex and Longevity" Daniel P. Reid

That's awesome.

Very Cool stuff.

Done that one several times. If you are camping on the sun-deck: 1. bring duct tape to tape your tent down 2. bring a luggage lock for your tent flaps, stuff does get stolen out of tents 3.Although they say you cannot cook on the sundeck, many people do so inside their vestibules on the sly, saving major $$. 4. Bring games, books, booze (if you drink), the bar can get expensive.

Awright you gapers, I finally fixed my work truck and am off to Index. Looking for a partner for tomorrow, I'll be in the blue Honda CR-V with the bitchen rims See y'all out there! tonight!

Not as hard as Lummox intolerance.

You're a sick puppy, Snuggy! How come you're not out climbing?

Sorry to hear it, Man I have spent some rough times on the Skykomish River at Index to clear the spirit. Works well, and camping is free. Good luck.

Pretty sure Badvoodoo has that covered.
