Best album A Saucerful of Pink. It a double CD Goth tribute album, it rocks. Definitely though The Wall is the album to have from the band. There is no way I can pick a single song from them, they have so many good ones. So what is this Pro and Cons you speek of?

I went and saw some of the Breakdancing, that shit is wild, really cool. Also saw some Macy Gray, Hasan, Space harp thang, Kinski, Kinky, and stopped in to listen to Kid Hops and DJ Riz spin some toonz. By far the Kinky show was the best.

Yeah count me in as well, I would like to check that out sometime. I just got done reading a little about it on the CandS site. Vague info at best, but enough to pick my interest.

Lil' baby Jesus appears and all this time you thought fer sure there was never going to be a second coming.

I pretty much agree with catbirdseat summary. It was an awesome day out on some great slab climbing, damn it been way too long since I had done some slab climbing and there was definitely some spots where I wasn't sure if I was going to vibrate off, also being sore and tired from climbing Eldo the day before didn't help. I thought we going to be cragging hence our alpine start, but we still had a great time up there. Now I need to get back and get on to the real route and finish it. We ended up on Safe Sex and didn't realize what we were missing out on until we rapped the route. Can't wait to get back and do others up in that area.

Sex is like an alpine approach, you work your ass off to reach a most heavenly place.

no, I realy like to talk out my ass So Muffy when you talk out your ass is it Jim Carey style where you grab your cheeks or Pink Flamingo talking ass style?

Lil' Baby Jesus wasn't blonde and blue eyed. It is a phenomenon known as the Systematic Bleaching of Christ, to make him more marketable to us Anglo folk. I always thought that would be a cool name for a band, SBC.

do you like to ski? Not really the only time you can see me skiing is when I am skinning on my split board.

Sphinx is right I am getting a little bored of this.I think being unemployed has something to do with it too. I am ready for the cold, ice, and swing my Cobras. I just keep hearing from people that there isn't any ice around during the winter time in these parts, I hope it is a lie.

I was planning on going up on Slesse, what is the deal with that area? Does it fall in any of the closed area? What is the smoke like over there? Anyone know?

YO, I'll be going down to Smith during that time without any definite partners, yet.

Oh yeah someone mentioned olives. Not the piemento stuffed olive, blah. Use Niciose, them things is like butter, tasty not over powering. If you must use a cheap olive then go with the garlic stuff ones for a little spice. Also, someone else mentioned TEN. Yeah, that is good stuff, though because of the stronger citrus flavor I would go with a lemon twist with that or caper berries is also good with that as well in a martini format. I actually like TEN for the new and improve T&T.

For a real dry martini, what I do is chill glass and gin in freezer. Use a spritzer and spray the inside of glass with Vermouth or pour in Vermouth and swirl in glass and pour it out. If you keep your Gin in freezer you can pour directly into glass and add olives, olive juice (for dirty) or lemon twist and then sprits surface. For a slightly less drier martini stir gin with ice for aprox. a minute. Do not shake for a dry martini, in my opinion it just waters down your gin. Some people say it bruises the gin, yeah it looks cool when you shake a martini, but it ruins the gin flavor. Cheers

Two reasons. I loved being in the mountains and climbing them by any route. Originally I started with staying on the main hiking trails, but then got into bushwhacking up them. Then scrambles, but scrambling scared the hell out of me, which leads me to the second reason. I was afraid of heights and I wanted to get over it. Some friends were just getting into climbing so I would go out with them and TR at the local quarry. The first couple of years I could only deal with getting about 10 feet off the deck before I would freeze. Eventually a friend who was a guide took me and another newbie friend up Sliding Board (5.7) on Whitehorse in North Conway. It was awesome. It was my first time going higher than 10 feet and 7 pitches later I was 800 feet off the deck and top out on my first route and I didn't freeze up. Ever since then all I have wanted to do is climb.

I think Marylou and Beck need to geet a room an either or oh hell or both

nice style. We had cut ours down to 6 or 7 pitches to the summit.

I went the same way you guys went (green line) and I don't remember it being that scary, it was definitely a solid 9 and quite exciting, but the gear was there the whole time. I wouldn't think anybody would give it two skull or R rating. It must be another crack that Kearny talks about in his book.

YO Bobbyperu are we still down for M,T,W? Might be into heading up early and doing some of dat alpine craggin' Sun too. Oh yeah what da hell happen to you on Monday night?

Hey MisterE I might be into carpooling down with you. I am gonna see if there is some Seattle folks that want to head down. For all of you in Seattle folk I am into carpooling down in my car or yours I can fit 2 very comfortably or 3 a little tighter. PM me if any of you are interested.

I have been beer training all summer long, go ahead and wreck us all.

The New in WV rocks there are thousands of routes there and ton of bouldering. Check out Summerville Lake over there is it an amazing place, good swimming, short approach, beautiful waterfall, and great routes. Also the Red River Gorge in KY awesome sandstone pocket pulling, there is a variety climbing their as well. Both areas are mainly sport. Looking Glass in North Carolina if you want granite. It is mainly trad area, never been there. Can't help you with partners. I think there is a website similar to this for Southeast climbers, from what I remember though it is not used by as many.

I would agree those are reliably drinkable and and chances are you will not find estate tequilla stateside. You got to go down to Tequilla and visit the independent producers before Cuervo's and Sauza's get a hold of it and start blending it for their lines.

I tripped on a stick on the trail to Mt. Slesse and smashed my face, then I saw a HUGE salamander on the trail. I didn't know they grew so big, like about 8" just the body ! Then I balanced rocks on a moraine ridge in the fog and drizzle. Then I ate pie at the Chilliwack airport. Then I climbed the dirty chossy scary North North Arete in Squamish. It was fun. The end Sounds like a rockin' weekend for both of you, except for the face smashing part. I have only heard good things about North Shore area for climbing. I wish my weekend was like yours. Oh well got this week. I was thinking about doing North North Arete sometime. So was NN Arete dirtier than Angel's Crest?

Just happy that me, trask and WJC are all in the same boat! Hurry someone, anyone sink the damn boat. The only reason Ronald Reagan could articulate the Republican agenda was cause he was an actor. I guess you'll have to wait until Arnold is ready to run for president. I still can't get over the fact that a puppet was elected president.
