    Ebay hotties

    Check out this ebay auction...I'm trying to figure out what is being sold.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1299&item=3671100138&rd=1
  2. I was looking at the list of people online the other day and saw about 5 different Google bots chowing down the cc.com data. We're probably all in a NSA database now. Time to put on my tin foil hat.
  3. Has anyone been up Road 39 since this TR? I'm wonder if a non-four wheel drive can making it up to the trailhead, and what the trail conditions are. Thanks...
  4. Ahhh...this reminds me of my scouting days. One time, near the end of an 80 miler we made by hooking up various trails in the Olympics, we made up this concoction we dubbed 'Rocky Mountain Spotted Frog' that was basically Top Ramen mixed with a packets of all the spices,seasonings, and stuff we had left over. I'm not sure what went wrong, but within 10 minutes of eating it about 9/10s of the group was spouting out of both ends.
  5. The first picture looks like a screen capture of some video game.
  6. Is Rainier considered high altitude mountaineering? Not slaggin' on ya, just curious. Fair question, and while it might be directed at the person who mentioned Mt. Rainier, perhaps I should clarify or change my question to: What you can keep down either at high altitude or when going through gain of altitude that has an effect on your ablility to keep things down? Altitude is a relative thing. Some people get sick on Rainier, other only yack above 18,000. After all, it is not the elevation you get sick at, but whether you're having the most fun doing so, that determines if you're the best climber.
  7. What do you take to eat on a high altitude mountaineering trip? This is probably a personal thing, but what you find you can keep down when exerting yourself at high altitude?
  8. Ausgezeichnet Reise Berichts pzack. Ich lache meinen Esel ab!
  9. "The best climber is the one having the most fun hitting on everyone else's girlfriend."
  10. Here is an excerpt: "The mountaineering tribe is a comforting place for the partner of a climber. Its protective circle shuts out the questioning eyes of the outside world." Basically, it is a cult. Time for some more koolaid.
  11. There is one at WWU.
  12. That's why the rack was so expensive...they have to produce twice of everything to get it right....
  13. Well, there is a bright side. You can now safely bite the rope without fear of having your teeth ripped out. That must really hurt. Sorry to hear about the insurance and your cancelled Europe plans.
  14. Dude, I totally shredded some 5.8 today. Do you want to fuck with DeJesus?
  15. Only once a year? Buy yourself a guide. Either that, or skip navigation and just go for it. Nature will run its course. The new Mountain Gear catalogue has these panic button devices in case you have fallen and you can't get up. Only $700 or so.
  16. Well, enjoy yourself. Whose nose are your going to do?
  17. There are some mines that are worth exploring. I haven't heard of any caves...
  18. Don't presume to know, dude. I disagree. Greg, sorry to hear about the ball crushing accident you had a few years ago that will prevent you from ever having children, and rendering you into a complete and utter shithead. But don't worry...even though you're less a few nuts, you're still a man, sorta. The world is very pleased that you will never be having children.
  19. Don't forget getting water at Matrimony Springs for your ride. Has anyone else been to Cable Arch? Last time I was there we camped in Moonflower canyon and some local got drunk and set fire to the entrance to the canyon by shooting off fireworks at about 2 in the morning. It jumped up to the rim and luckily went out before spreading too far(it was late May, and everything was super dry). The sheriff showed up, and you could smell the alchohol on his breath a mile away. That place might not be special for some people, but I have had some good times there. Thanks for the pics.
  20. Western just built a climbing gym on campus, but unless you're majoring in climbing that isn't going to help you. My best advice would be to work what ever job you can get and climb if that is what you want to do. Or you might want to consider a college based on it's education merits for the major you are pursueing. that or just go drink. enjoy

    MAd Cow

    What tastes tastier to a cow than the meat of a cow infected with MCD? Nuttin? Well, it sounds like our US meat producers have their feed situation take care of! What? They already feed 'downers' to the rest of the cows? There goes another business idea down the drain....
  22. Boeing Alps Society People recommended this to me over the Moutaineers, but I haven't tried them yet. I wouldn't be asking the people on this board to teach you....they're all nuts.
  23. Super Dairy Boy
  24. For starters, the 'warm period' that lasted through the 1500's and was ended by 'the little ice age'. And this.... http://search.netscape.com/ns/boomframe.jsp?query=mars+global+warming&page=1&offset=0&result_url=redir%3Fsrc%3Dwebsearch%26amp%3BrequestId%3Dc2a4e25f47667eb3%26amp%3BclickedItemRank%3D1%26amp%3BuserQuery%3Dmars%2Bglobal%2Bwarming%26amp%3BclickedItemURN%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fabcnews.go.com%252Fsections%252Fscitech%252FDailyNews%252Fmars011207.html%26amp%3BinvocationType%3D-%26amp%3BfromPage%3DNSCPTop&remove_url=http%3A%2F%2Fabcnews.go.com%2Fsections%2Fscitech%2FDailyNews%2Fmars011207.html Do you propose that humans are responsible for Mars global warming too? Could solar activity/cycles be at work in both cases? Throw yet another liter o'jet fuel on the fire my young 'Russian Hardman in Training'. WOW! That was a long link! Too bad it is a deadlink asswipe. Just like you.
  25. What about dem Bad Livers? Their (Danny Barnes) singer now live out be my ole homestead in Quilcene (actually, he lives in Chimacum). Yeehaa!!!
