She used my little brother's ID to post. If she was a regular poster, she would probably end up getting banned like Trask.

Thanks for reminding me...

Ok, reposting this after I deleted it the first time. There are some movies of poor taste here, but I've never been a good judge of taste and I thought some of these were funny. Some are not for the faint of heart or for those who object to profanity...if this is you, skip it. *some movies are not work friendly* /end disclaimers Flash movie link

I wouldn't get to excited about this. Where is the data coming from that says the Palestinians are ready to ditch Hamas and do what ever Isreal tells them to do? The Middle East has demonstrated for thousands of years that people raised amid violence have no problems with continuing the cycle. And it only takes a couple of hardliners to perpetuate it.

I qouth myself yes it is...

So that song that goes "what time is it? 4:30. Is that late? " etc...that is about pot too?

[quote You're pretty fucking stupid if you think that one man could do all that you propose. Sheesh, you think the Government is ONE MAN? A man who doesn't even have the power to spend money or make laws? Go back to making an ass out of yourself on climbing topics, that's funny enough. You're just annoying here. You're right Greg. It is foolish to think that George Bush is actually running the country. That is being performed by Cheney and his oil industry buddies. It takes a bunch of those neocon freaks to run up the national debt and alienate us from the rest of the world.

I believe this is George Bush's speech writer.

If he was such a pro bike messenger kewl dude that he should have been in better control. If he cut you off, he was wrong according to my code of the street. I remember when I almost crashed into my older brother when I was about 10 and he was 14. (he was riding a motorcycle, and I was riding a bicycle). It was a similiar situation to what you describe, and I immediately said to him "You're lucky I'm such a good rider or we both could be hurt!" He got pissed and beat the crap out of me...

Yea, the trailhead is at the 8 mile post. The snow on the road all the way to the trailhead isn't going to melt out *really* soon as it is at least a couple feet deep of compressed snow/ice in parts. It will probably be clear all the way up in a month unless they plow it before that.

Mom, it was Oscar's fault. He was supposed to remind me.

Follow up story by the Seattle PI about this accident.

Ya, you should probably go with a real jammer...

I was in REI Seattle the other day, and one of the clerks there (some older guy) was trying to get me to sign up for another membership even though I already have one. You can get 20%, and for a bigger ticket item, that can be quite a bit... I just thought it was odd that he was pushing it. Do they get some sort of pay based on how many people the sign up (even if they're signing up people more than once)?

Just in posting (not including reading)...lets estimate 1 minute per post....that is 16 2/3 hours of your life that can't be recovered. And it is probably 10 times that at least in reading. Solid hours of your life, down the tube. Good work, here is to 1000 more!

Good god, you've pegged it! I was wondering what the hell was wrong with me when I was soloing the Mt. Si trail and was surrounded by people with trekking poles! I was puking in the bushes after some spandex wearing fellow with trekking poles brushed by me on the way to his Porsche Cayenne in the parking lot. I felt like I totally screwed up my gear selection in not purchasing a set of titanium trekking poles and a Sat phone so I can chat with Sandy Hill Pittman where ever. It is now common knowledge at those are required uniform for Mt. Si. I just need to work over my allergy to them.

Ya, that is weird. Usually when there is a conversation, it is two people talking. Must be something about cell phones. It must be a Luddite tendenancy in my subconscious.

[quote that would be John Belushi whoops, duh. yes, jim isn't near as funny as john was.

Cable Arch (in the middle of the night)

It is just surreal to be hiking along, and hear a loud conversation on the trail ahead...and it turns out to be some guy arguing with his girlfriend on his cell phone. I kind of makes you want to pull a Jim Belushi, like what he did with the guitar in Animal House.

I second this. Great jacket.
