You're complaining because people think you look like Ewan McGregor? Surely you jest!

I'm still looking for answers about changing my mood. I've tried taking pills and whatnot, but no change thus far.

This one's pretty good: N. Cascades Geology And so is this one: Routes and Rocks, Crowder and Tabor The second one is high XC routes in the N Cascades and geography. Neither is specific to climbers, but I think you'll find them pretty close to what you are asking for. Pretty tough to find a copy of that second book. You'll pay real money for it.

It's okay, no one is asking for help here.

They are ultra-dinky though. I shared the three person version with another adult human one night last year and it was just about right.

I'd have to go with Archy on that one. The late model, better-looking E McG. The earlier versions of E McG were too scruffy, IMO.

My condolences, but I'm glad to hear you've adjusted well to your mastectomy. The Girls will have their revenge on you for insulting them.

Wow, that one guy looks like the infamous Mr. Layton.

It's not enough just to dream. One must also be q-u-a-l-i-f-i-e-d. There's no doubt in my mind that if I had gone east to go to the college of my choice, it would not have been out of my reach. I chose a different course, and therefore live a different life than that. I did regret that at points in my life, but don't any longer.

Being assigned to work in the middle of a war zone where the military can't protect you from danger is not the same thing as being assigned to The Congo though.

What if your boss told you you were being transferred to Baghdad?

I think Sobo needs a hug. :kisss:

Yer jealous!

ITA Crux. I see it as a moral imperative. It's a completely illegal occupation, and history will not be kind to this country for it.

I'm all PMSsy. Wanna trade?

My childhood dream was to be in the Foreign Service, so it's with some interest that I'm watching this story. Condoleeza Rice has said that if enough volunteers can't be rounded up, there will be mandatory tours into Iraq for some FS employees. They will either have to go or quit the FS, which I assume would cause them to forfeit generous benefits. FS workers are comparing a tour to Iraq with "being given a death sentence" and say normally embassies are closed down in war zones (which is true). The Green Zone is regularly breached, and we've seen people like diplomatic staff and journalists given no immunity from the horrors of the war. Personally I think it is wrong to force FS employees to work in a war zone, and if it were me, I'd probably resign before I'd go. What do you think? Should they have to go? Would you?

How do I change my mood? My internet mood, not my real mood. How come I got a dam title in the upgrade? I have been titleless for years and prefer it that way.

It's running right now (5pm) on All Things Considered. I imagine it will run again before 6:30, and may be on the NPR webstersite.

It looks like a bunch of the hotlinks at the top of the page are broken. I'd PM Porter directly, but the hotlink to my mailbox is broked too.

Hey, now, let's not be getting all judgemental and throwing around terms like "gay sex". That guy said he wasn't gay, so that man-on-man tryst-gone-awry was not "gay sex". What is it with these dudes having sex with other guys and then saying they are not gay? I don't think they're fooling anyone except possibly themselves.

I have a little bit of a hangover today. I ran into a friend who is a career NPS employee and he had to rant about getting nothing accomplished because of the politics and beauracracy of the NPS, so I'd like to think I was doing a public service by overconsuming. I got the stitches taken out of my ankle today so I thought I'd go for a walk to clean the alcohol debris out of my system, and I made it about a quarter of a block before it started talking to me. I guess the doc wasn't kidding when she said "be easy on it for a while".

I don't get the fish burp, I just have a hard time gagging down those giant capsules.

Thank you Olympia Climber. The 24 hours search view is now almost as good as it was before it was improved.

I have a couple of shelters that are floorless, but generally I end up using a traditional tent for that very reason. * *I'm not usually camped on snow.

HOW'S DA WEDDER?
