Well spoken sir!

yeah. it appears that we just got goatse'd by the nature channel.

I hardly think that it is scintillating advice to give to a young man who isn't even of legal drinking age!!!!!!11

well i think the important thing here is not to panic. it was just one giant squid. It wasn't an huge army of giant squid riding laser equipped dolphins. We can handle this.

i use arcaterix goretex breadbags. these are available only to select sponsored climbers. it is interesting that there are a lot of people who have advice to give. and/or make fun of advice givers. or make a tangential observation.

above this, no slug backs, i'm rubber you're glue.

no, its the guys above this

Well I don't know about you Bug, but I'm inclined to spew advice, similar to the "Technicle" thread. I'm got a huge reservoir of sage advice that I can call on, and I mean that in the most modest and humble way possible. My suggestion is that the guy in the picture is clearly taking way too big of risks. 1. SAR will have to be called up if he slips. Alot of these SAR folks are volunteer. Do you think they have money coming out of their ears to pay for the gas money to come scrape his body off the rocks below? 2. What about possible climbers below? He is clearly endangering them. 3. What sort of example is being set here? Next thing you know, every 12-year old in the county is going to be going up there and trying to free solo this (without a rope!!!!) and getting themselves hurt or even worse.....killed. And all because this dufus had to go showing off. 4. That route could use a few more bolts, and it would be alot safer for the rest of the climbers who can't just fly up a 5.10.

My average crew went sport climbing on Gorilla My Dreams last night. Good stuff! Gorilla My Dreams

[video:youtube]RGkIfcyyNFQ Vermont is in my posse

were short-shorts more 80s or 70s? i can't remember.

Jake's Response: Thanks for the invite. But do you really climb, or do you just run your mouth on cc.com all day? I see you don't have any trip reports and come to think of it, I've never seen your name associated with one. Anyway, if you do wanna hook up....for climbing or maybe just to play some computer games, compare RAM and video cards and such.....that would be swell. But let's keep it private, OK? I'm pretty sure that if Pope catches us out at Index, he'll invite us to climb routes where we won't always have three bolts within reach at all times, and the stuff he climbs even today will probably make us cry. My average crew went sport climbing on Gorilla My Dreams last night. Good stuff!

well imagine yourselves, but then X that by at least 10 and you start to get an idea of how humble and low key me and my crew are. we like to have fun too, and we don't need bolts to do it. we don't even need a rope, except perhap to mix things up now and again. our accomplishments are even more meaningless and even less of a deal than yours. we also occupy dead center position on the bell curve, so you aren't going to out average us. we're definitely the most average guys, i assure you, way more average than your crew.

HAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA ur trying to hard

TURD LICKERS NEVER CALLED ME

WHEN AN ANGRY GORILLA CRIES

I only wish UW Rock had a nice gully I could sully up with my gaitors on

I like driving the vehicles that allow me to pay the most at the pump. 60-70s muscle cars. 8 barrel carb.

Gary, the mosquitoes were fucking horrible at Index this evening. I would recommend climbing in the fall when they are dead.

OH HAI! I'M JUST BACK FROM YOSEMITE! WHAT A SHIT HOLE THAT PLACE IS. TOTAL PILE OF SHIT. I CAN'T WAIT TO GO ON MY NEXT TRIP! MAYBE I CAN HAVE A WORSE TIME AND BITCH ABOUT THINGS ON TEH INTERWEB? OH AND ENJOY A PICTURE OF MY FRIEND: I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT, BECAUSE I INTEND TO POST IT APPROXIMATELY 992,345 MORE TIMES , ESP. EVERY TIME I GET IN A COCK MEASURING FEST ON THE CLIMBING BOARDS.

I'm going to ship my cat to New York.

I'm reminded of this skit:

I believe he may be his mother via #2

W. D. Snodgrass offered a Freudian interpretation of the story in The Hudson Review in 1958. His interpretation hinged on the resemblance of "luck" to "lucre", and the vaguer resemblance of both to "love." Snodgrass argued that Paul's desire "to be lucky" represents an oedipal desire to replace his father in his mother's life.
