  1. Sounds like I'm the one doing the button pushing around here. Young blood, some day you will get some, send everyone a PM when that unwary lass finally does you (and us) a favor.
  2. mmmm....shrooms.
  3. Fellas, Give the ladies some credit. They put up with our stupid antics and still manage to nurse our tender egos. Ladies, We're stupid. We know you know...forgive us. Can we buy you something now?.....
  4. The final activity is...war. The dark side of every human is the desire to destroy. "Extreme sports" have taken the place of war in our bored society. Since nobody is tring to kill us, we now try to scare the life out of ourselves, and thus, can come home triumphant from our self-imposed battles. Thoughts?
  5. The amount of energy involved in cleaning cracks is often much greater than the eventual ascent. Just let those dudes warp out get real dirty.
  6. We found several gates around Index that were opened...using a torch.
  7. We all do! me next!me next!
  8. Why is it that I have to almost die in order for a climb to be considered to be "pure"?
  9. Some things are better left a mystery....
  10. After years of second hand searching, I am the proud owner of the "Half dome clean issue" ....now, if I can only find it in this mess...
  11. My dad and I drilled about 50 stone holds. I just selected rocks that had a flat side. Don't rock saws have built in vices to hold the piece?
  12. May I suggest the joy of home ownership... Never has the phrase "now or never" been so appropriate. Half of my friends have made 50-150K in equity in the last year alone. The other half got priced right out of the market...
  13. Christ, doesn'tt anybody ever burn skis anymore? You gotta pay to play...
  14. The Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner good for those river trips...
  15. Do pro- bolting threads count?
  16. Bring the lights down to forty percent Begin the series of tones... we have transmission interlock.
  17. I think this thread now has a better name.
  18. My old Ultimate Direction pack has served me well. The hip belt design carries the load without bouncing. Snugtop is right, carring nothing is the best, but the smaller pack offers a place to keep the ipod, keys and treats. We like to run out at Red Rocks, great trails and excellent all mountain training with incredible views!

    fyi

    Just a tip: As yummy as your pot brownies are, Easter is not the time to "test them".
  20. Stand back and look at the thing. They call it onsighting, but a good once over can tell a lot. Gear placements, route finding, rests...It's all there. Being really strong helps too.
  21. Did ya solo The Bone ?
  22. I want to be a Bigfoot
  23. We spent the weekend snorkeling at Lake Mead. Nice temps (101) and the water was a warm 76 degerees. You know,...climbing kinda sucks compared to lazing about, chasing fish and finding so many old beer cans.
  24. A super solid high steel rigging boot! Quite a few of the riggers here in Vegas wear NACC's You can safely hang from your ankles at high steel without fear of ankle slippage. The semi flat soles ensure that the errant bolt or conduit will not trip you up as you walk the low steel.
  25. The napkins! did they take the napkins?
