ALOT OF DUDES.

i can totally relate after falling off coaches crack at uw rock and snapping my tib/fib. at least you fell off a non-artificial crag. still adjusting after 8 months or so of recovery to the metal in my leg. personally, i also have a different philosophy about free soloing easy stuff (as in my own choices, not what others choose to do). best wishes on the recovery.

ALPINFOX!! Or is it Kevbone, given the quiver of guitars????

tired, predictable negativity. congrats...it was funny the first time though!

you're either with us or against us

another sign of the decline of america....the king of beers: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121331609696270109.html?mod=googlenews_wsj

like the pearl ITS SO LIVABLE

true enough: they are either with us or against us

saw a video on the internets....well...nevermind.

you got yourself a keeper there honey biscuits

lol Lindows. remember lindows? the delorean of OSs.

as a town, i like Portland, but there are too many moderates there. i need extremes. tax and spend libtards or jack booted go it your own conservatives. seattle has a nice mix of libtards who shoot themselves in the foot over public transportation and strip clubs, and east side conservatives driving their lexus to bellevue square. if i could choose i would live in a cabin in the middle of a 1000 acres with a bunch of guns and ammo.

i'd probably spoon with tvash, if I could bag some summits this fucking shitty spring/june JESUS

and will, thanks to the fucking stand on their hands MODERATES

already saw it you fucking moderate.

moderates are pussies who can't make up their minds. its either black or white, so choose and get over yourself fucknuts.

more than this particular incident, i'm wondering why the "war on terror" has not shown up in pakistan to begin with. given their relationship with the arise of the taliban and the existing elements in pakistan....coupled with the rumor that bin laden is hidden in the border region makes it seem (from the arm chair) that more of the incidents SHOULD be happening in looking for osama. but then i'm not even sure where that is on the priority list these days.

my thought is you should go for it

About what I would expect from you. However, now that you brought them up, what is wrong with 'honor' and 'sacrifice'? You Lefties preach individual sacrifice for the good of the collective. How is a soldier's willingness to sacrifice any different? Further, how is 'honor' now a bad word? The problem with "honor" and "sacrifice" they're basically lofty-sounding abstractions designed for the parents of dead children and inscriptions on tombstones, to give the living some meaning for senseless waste. They have no meaning whatsoever in and of themselves: the same language is used by kamikazis, Prussians, Commies, Doughboys, Mongols, or Marines. The Nazi SS talked loads of this stuff, but through history's lens were they honorable and virtuous? Submission and sacrifice to the State is the essence of fascism but it's always dressed in the very same terms you unquestioningly swallow. Any "leftie" worth his salt would never accept your premise about "preaching individual sacrifice for the good of the collective". The ones I like tend to be a bit more historically literate and less prone to razzle-dazzle marketing campaigns dressed up as patriotism. Finally, "honor" is a bad word when it's used as first to charm impressionable boys and then as ideological cover to mask national chauvinism and belligerence. Denying the existence of honor is a long tradition of those lacking that trait. Honor is real and I have seen it personally. If less people would forget what honor was, this world might not be so bad. Things like Pride, Duty, Self Sacrifice and Honor should not be bad words. They are ideals that we MUST instill in our children; not try to erase. Perhaps the reason you are a nhilist is that you have nothing greater than yourself to believe in than a washed up philosophy that killed more people than the plague. My point is not that these things don't exist, it's that the relationships between the abstract ideas and what they're realistically in service to need to be examined. I think people can be honorable, exhibit virtuous qualities, etc. but that killing people in the service to and for the benefit of the State (much less invading and occupying Iraq) doesn't meet the criteria. Would you say this to a D-Day vet or a beach storming pacific theatre vet?? I think not... No, I'd have to yell it in their antique ear phone holes because they're so damn old! I say this not to disparage the hearing impaired, but to illustrate the fact that the last legitimate military action the US was engaged in was 60+ years ago! Everybody knows this and that's why the pundits and politicians have to fall all over each other evoking Hitler's ghost and Pearl Harbor and Nazis and everything else every time they want to start (or stay in) a goddamned war. Fricking infantile political culture in this country! Gahd. So, you opposed the actions in Bosnia, then? Did Germany attack us? I can't remember. How skinny can we make it? what?
