repost and even more relevant. all the words you've used you have already used. why don't you stop posting lest you repeat yourself?

no shortage of cops were i live... and i don't really think someone is trying to keep me down. never had any use for cops/rangers/administrators etc. cops have a use for you sucker. its called a qouta filler, and you're a prime candidate.

here is the latest TR we have: http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/894313/TR_Mt_Slesse_Northeast_Buttres#Post894313

Great pics Blake! Congrats! 2nd that comment on the topos.

well thats what is needed to keep you down, maaaan. of course, just reading my local neighborhood blog, a dude threatening a woman at home alone, calls 911...cops never show up. i suppose you know if thats because there are not enough cops, they were all busy eating donuts, or if they're too busy tasering grandmas.

yesterday was a bummer having the site down all day. it was pretty much out of our control. i'm going to talk to Jon when he gets back from vacation and we'll see what we can do in order to have better availability. stay cool like highschool

you seem fixated on the word "cool". if you ask me, i think both lance and contador are grandstanding beyotches. it will be interesting to see what sort of team contador can put together, because you know lance is going to have a good one. but i hope andy schleck doesn't sign with him, because then andy could be in the same place that contador was in this year (trying to figure out who is the leader of the team).

[video:youtube]eDJrQBwJpqk know the law, know your rights. and don't provoke the POLICE MAN. some of them love a chance to use their billy club/taser, and you never know when you've got one of those.

the server, which is under my desk, caught on fire. i poured a bunch of coffee on it, and mildly electrocuted my self. as i lay twitching and convulsing on the floor, i could see the drive containing the precious spray database of CC.com burst into flames. luckily my cat came down to investigate, and i was able to use her to smother the flames. i then created a clean room and manually extracted sector by sector all of your precious posts. then i had to find a place to put them. i was able to attach a 4 terrabyte drive to a timex sinclair clustered with a trs-80. things seem to be ok now, and these new systems fit nicely under my desk with the coffee pot brewing on top.

LONG LIVE TRASK!

such is the life of a visionary. meanwhile, the turds such as yourself fertilize and hopefully will a positive impact. but this is unlikely. well, back to being awesome. later!

i'm going for speed

i'm going the distance

I would say you'd be able to follow big wall routes (i've seen a number of "disabled" climber documented who jug the big rocks. that would get you out there! i would think that just going on an extended hike with that thing in the North Cascades would be awesome (over passes, etc). What sort of range do you think you have for the peak you want to do for the fundraiser? (as in miles or nights on the trip)

I just donated some money and the reciept indicates that the money is going to "Washington Climbers Coalition" and "Reference: Index Fund". As I said, the WCC is a 501c3, so this receipt will be deductible for taxes. From the WCC site: "Donations are Tax Deductible. The Washington Climbers Coalition is a non-profit public charity, qualified as a 501©(3) organization with the Internal Revenue Service. Our EIN is 42-1644686. Talk to your tax preparer for more information on this."

Hi John, good questions! The WCC is a non-profit (501c3) and you WILL be able to write off your donation to the fund. We filled out the necessary paperwork with PayPal so we're getting a discount on their rate,but I'm not sure that your receipt will indicate it or not. The money is going to the WCC, but is earmarked for use only with the IndexFund purchase and costs associated with that land purchase.

pretty cool. that looks a little like the classic view of prusik, eh?

SUPER FUN! [video:youtube]wepAxJ6BN30

THIS SANDWICH TASTES GREAT!

I won't speak for him, but I don't think Blake necessarily was being negative. He was just pointing out that by one definition (whether that is a generally accepted definition or not is another story) the route still hasn't been freed. That said, hats off to the sender! And good on you for cleaning it! Its way above my sub-moderate ability, but for those those that can climb at that level should go give it a go! Lets hear some informed opinions, is it all of that?
