I was climbing at Joshua tree a while ago, and sme Frenchies were going on and on about the cafe scene in Paris and how they sit around on the sidewalk and drink coffee all day. Some people from Seattle were there and I overheard them say: "We are from Seattle, it's a coffee town too!" One Frenchman looked at the woman who spoke and said: "Seattle? Zis is ze town where everyone drinks ze lattes, no? Eeet is not a coffee town, eet is a milk town!

discuss.

I'm beggin' here - how about some stars

Holy Shit! That is out there! Wow!

Please tell, Wyne. We know you are just dying to tell us about the "fence" - I saw the shirt you made for your own climb. Real subtle

Necro's a fucking homo. He climbed on his momma last night. Try and catch me now, sprayer

That was a weather report, fool

...fucking sucks! They go all these books on TAPE , but the CD selection blows. Why isn't there a device that is cd to tape adaptor? They can do it the other way - lesser tech to newer tech. So why isn't there reciprocation Fucking isolationist tech

Piss off, it's going to piss, so it's off...

Yep! There's a brand new one out there - developed by our very own Bill Simpkins! Should have my hot little hands on one or two of those sweet babies in the next couple of months How about it Bill? You promised at the last B'ham Pub Club! I can hardly not spill the beans,but mum's the word This thing is so different you could hardly guess, but go ahead...

Necro climbs?

Stallone soloing, shooting in bolts with his "bolt gun" and then not clipping them . Oh, and he had a rope, rack and harness on .

He sure has mellowed his scene since these days:

Hey, Distel! I'll give you a California spot. Youknow, that's where I stand and watch you crater, and say: "Doood! That looked like it hurts, Dood! Rad!"

I'm just trying to get to 1400 before I go to 11worth

I lost a large purple Metolius 4cam in the lower gorge on sunday at the TuffFest, near Cruel Sister - anyone find it? I'll pay for shipping.

See! O2!

True, Dat!

Oh, grow up!

My essence has been addled for a while now

The next stage is obviously elder wisdom Maturity doesn't necessarily mean constancy, does it? They would like us to believe everything is fine as we are - with adolescence comes dependency on material things to show value. Once the culture reaches maturity, that dependancy lessens significantly, and we become more reliant upon emotional and intellectual values over rampant materialism

All this tearing down is tearing me down, it's only by sheer will I am able to post this

"Entropy is the strongest force in the universe" was what I read on the wall of the workplace. I laughed at that, a believer in the other, equally strong force. Later, when I saw the author, I said: "I had a laugh at you writing." He looked up at me with an air of scientific detatchment that said, without words, his was a static universe. At that moment I knew that my belief - that will is as strong of a force as entropy - was wrong to him. But, I thought, I feel a joyous kind of wrong, a celebration of wrong, a reminder of the fetters of ceaseless rightness. I laughed again, this time at the miracle of the dance of will and entropy, here in the dynamic universe.

Well, so much for the "unscathed" portion of this thread
