I second that You got Flash all figured out Trask.

That is about right, typical liberal...If you don't agree with me you must be an asshole, I will call you some names, run around screaming, and maybe even torch something. Oh, nice touch trying to discredit the new guy too. Otherwise, no come back or argument...par for the course from a liberal. Seriously though, don't you have a clue Flash? Are you one of those guys that thinks that you have the right to yell "fire" in a crowded movie theater when there is not one? Do you not at least think that it is in bad taste to criticize the troops and the President in a war time situation? Like I said, protest all you want...right up until the fighting starts, then it is time to stand united as one! Oh and by the way genius, it is the 1st amendment of the Bill of Rights. Do you also think it was about oil? If it were about oil, we would own Saudi Arabia. Most of the 9/11 hijackers came from there you know. It was about violations of the 1991 cease fire, continued research and production of banned weapons, Saddam rewarding the 9/11 hijackers families and suicide bombers families, and yeah it was a little personal for G.W.. Fuck the Dixie Chix! Fuck that director that won at the Oscar's, I bet he never wins anything again. Fuck all of the unemployed liberals that have nothing else better to do than criticize our country. Get educated and get a job.

OH, you got me there RBW, HAHAHAHA....there was nothing subtle there about Craig, but you must have missed that too.

Craig has never heard of photo shop.

Cheers...God it sucks getting old...believe me, I know.

Ok, yeah I am new around these boards, but Fuck that...Flash you are out of line. If you don't like our military, President, or government, then move your ass the hell out of this great country. Prove they lied....show me some evidence. They went in with the best knowledge they had. The UN guys were not allowed in for over 2 years (maybe longer) until just months before the war. The guy was hiding something. He had shit before and used it and he had shit in January. Their top scientist from the deck of most wanted said so. Anyway, I think they should have waited longer and given the UN more time, but I understand that it was going to endanger more lives if we did so. As far as the right to free speech, hell yeah...you got it, I got it, and everybody in this country has it. I have that right to go to some assholes funeral and yell, "Hey you fucking prick I am glad you are dead." But I don't and most sane people would not. Why? Cause we have some class and etiquette, even if it is low. So, you people speak your mind all you want, but when the fighting starts and the war is on, then it is time to get behind your boys. I am sure everybody knows someone in the military that could use some support. I for one sleep better every night knowing that Saddam is dead or hiding in some hole. That threat has been neutralized. It does scare me a little when I realize how fine of a line it is between a liberal and an extremist. Thanks Trask, maybe I will avoid the movies too.

I will look and see if I see a bunch of people camped out on my way down and let you know. I just got my slot number today in the mail from the FS. Now all I need is good weather.

Spray this! Said the flattlander who went up a hill and came down exhausted.

I don't know about conditions, but I am headed up solo next Monday 6/2 if you are interested in hooking up. If you go sooner, I would appreciate an update on conditions. Thanks.

Yeah, that is amazing. I just saw it on the local news here in Chicago. Everestnews.com confirms the record as reported to the ministry. He headed straight back to BC and made the round trip in 17:20. Figure 20 minutes on the summit. Then that is 7 hours for the trip down. He must have helium in his pack and kevlar pants for glissading down the Lhotse face. That is one crazy and fit Mo.

Dude, if you don't have claw marks on your fence, then I doubt it is a bear. I would not think they are smart enough to open the gate. I think you might be barking up the wrong tree.

I go with porcupines. Those little rat bastard rodents.

One thing I learned about the Koflach plastic boots is that the half sizes are the same boot as the next bigger boot. For instance, a 11.5 is a size 12 boot. The only thing is that the inner boot is smaller. So, if you buy a 11.5 U.S. then you will have a size 12 boot with a 11.5 inner boot. That might be the problem. I wear a 12 and they were just a little tight. So, I got a 12.5, which is really a 13, and they are pretty big in the toe box. Sock liners and Smartwool socks help a little.

I agree with Trask's last. The world is a much better place and there is no doubt the shit was there. Just maybe not as much as we thought. Man, Luna and a few others here could be part of the Dixie Chix with these piss poor atitudes. Conspiracy theory, Huh? At least Bush is trying to do something, even if it is not exactly right all the time. All Clinton did was let his wife run the country and get a blow job under his desk. He even screwed that up and spooged on Monica's dress. Either get it in her mouth or her eye.

Gang banger going to the big house.

It is all F#%& Up. Thanks to Bill Gates no doubt.

WOW, thanks for the post and scaring the shit out of me. I bought mine about 2 months ago and they are still in the box. However, big trip to Hood and St. Helens next weekend. They are going to get there first test. Lucky for me mine are not in either of the 3 lots that are being recalled.

Who's been up the southside lately? Any condition reports on the Hogsback or the WCR? I am preparing for a first time ascent of Hood next Saturday. I hope the warm temps don't screw it up.
