Fairweather's got a point though; clearly the best way to make this state more successful is to cut spending on education so that people like Tim Eyeman and Kemper Freeman don't have to pay more in taxes. They're the job creators. Or- maybe that's what these people are paid because it's (get this) a competitive market for top level professionals in this profession. These are hardly union stiffs he's referring to. Education? Did you look at the list of top-paid state employees?

'Kinda makes you wonder why God told ol' Herman that He wanted him to run for president. Maybe it was a trap.

Cool. 'Can't be long before we start to weaponize the little devils. Big ol' June bug loaded with C4..... INCOMING!

Well, the video does have a point (along with lots of dead bodies,) and at least Ron Paul is willing to state the honest truth about the way our effed up foreign policy/ military adventures turned around to bit us in the hinders. Rick Santorum's head looked like it was about to explode and spread a frothy mix of brains etc. all over the place. However, being less crazy than Rick Santorum is hardly a ringing endorsement of one's qualifications for POTUS.

Cool. What is that, like 90 cm long?

I like how they use a stock shot of the Tetons for their background photo. 'Sounds pretty cool though!

9-9-9!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you serious? He has a 43% approval rating, we have 9% unemployment and most importantly, the election is still a year out. And the Republicans in Congress sure as shinola aren't going to do a damn thing to help make matters better before the next election. Not that they ever do........

I'm going to miss him; he was almost a wacky as Caribou Barbie.

Everyone knows you're supposed to spray from work. Duh.

How 'bout Jeb? Ya'know, since W did such a great job.

Wow, same day: Dru is called out for being wrong in one thread and JB agrees w/ j_b and Tvash in another.

BIG JOHNSON? 8D

I ain't worried, Ron paul is going to save us. I do like the Col. Sanders tie, though; definitely gives him an air of unquestionable authority. Oops, that was an ad hominem, sorry.

Whenever anyone starts spouting off about State's Rights, you can be pretty sure they're talking code words to the Sons of the Confederacy. Ya'know, about the nee-groes and all that.

Yup. They payed a little place called Tommy O's; I'm surprised you didn't hear about it.

Bonatti wasn't actually one of the climbers to make the FA of K2, though he did do yoeman's work for the team. Still, hard to top his achievments.

Where the hell in the Constitution does it say anything about food stamps?

Why? For posting it or believing it? Because just because I post does not mean I believe it. Some of it is funny though...... "I'm not actually an ignorant racist, I just like to repost ignorant racist hate-speech on internet forums. Because it's like, funny. Y'know?"

Kev, you've just sunk to a new low. Wow.

I did the same thing years ago. Late June as I recall. Permits NA for Boston Basin, but we were able to camp on Sahale arm and traverse over for the Sharkfin climb. I don't remember there being much difficulty; some snowfields to traverse, not too exposed, but no place to screw up either. Depending on current snow conditions there could be lots of talus walking. It's a fairly long way across Boston Basin to Sharkfin, but it doesn't seem we lost that much elevation once we got off Sahale arm.

Sehr Gut.

Looks like there's still a lot of snow in the basin. Did you find a dry spot to camp?
