I was out smelling the insides of the van, as it has been sitting since we made it back to Seattle a couple of years ago (I seriously did not think it would make it back, and it stopped running after I did get back). It smell yummy...we've been using it as a storage bin, and all gets cooked up in the hot sun. I need to get that thing running...anyone have a rebuilt 2.0 motor for a 79 VW lying around?

I actually put a carbon fiber racing johnson rod and replaced all the bushings...it probably just needed a ring job, but it broke down just before moab at the start of the vaction and i didn't want to ruin it (my vacation) so I just filled i up with super engine glue and put in oil everytime I stopped for gas. in fact, i may be the reason there is now an oil shortage....its all over the road beween here and the moonflower camping area.

it has a bunch of that "seal up the car so you can drive 200 more miles stuff" in it

i'd rather not drive so far...if the weather is nice, we'll probably go up to Leavenworth again. but we'd be up for a 3 day trip to Smith sometime for sure. SKULL HOLLLLOOOOWWWW!!!

when you get done I have a VW bus that needs its engine rebuilt

what about when I fail the lead test in the climbing gym?

ya...not a big deal. the president of the united states gets roasted in person like that everyday.

"boxing a glacier" ...and the Scalia bit...

just watched the whole spot. damn. what a roast...."rearranging deck chairs on the Hindenburgh"

I haven't....but I was just reading about the east face route in Jim's Selected Volume II, cool picture...looked like it was a cool 5.9. Too bad or good thing its gone now...too bad you can't climb it, but I would have not wanted to ride those blocks down. Jim has no mention of it being loose. http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/s...true#Post223231

Holy shit http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2006-04-30-bush-dinner_x.htm http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenew...RESPONDENTS.xml WTF? liberal press? these guys don't even report it http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12555176/ there are quite a few outlets that are reporting it as: "Bush lampoons self at press corps event" "Bush skewers self at correspondents' dinner" "Bush, reporters share some laughs tonight" etc...

That is pretty damn funny....and even funnier if it is real. For some reason I can't get myself to believe that he really pulled that off.

its a bit late in the conversation for this quote, but here it is anyway: "I won't belong to any organization that would have me as a member. "

there was a Mountie cool sign at the eighmile campground...we cancelled the midnight raid because of general laziness.

I have an IQ of 75.

The Church of Scientology claims that the 9/11 hijackers were brainwashed by psychiatrists who were the real masterminds behind the attacks.

The Super Offical truth: Here are all the facts. its all true.
