  1. Those are Sir Reardon's words, though he was referring to the opportunity to exhibit his backside to movies viewers across the world. And as if anyone of us would reject such an opportunity! And what about the leaving of the panties? All his climbing is a jackass stunt, thats why we all admire him...even you haters...you wish you could sport that hair, climb like that, and talk that smack.
  2. I'm my own grandpa.

    Amen!

    Peter, what has gotten into you? the actual data, not a link? I'm so proud. And "Amen" to Mr. Armeys statement! Except for instead of "tax and spend a " its "don't tax and spend anyway"...a incredible new breed of irresponsiblity.
  4. We all know the story about Clark Gable not wearing an undershirt and the next day the undershirt factories of America had to shut down. The thing nobody seems to remember is what everybody wore in America long before that, and long after. And what happened to this country when they stopped wearing that one thing. I remember. What they wore was this cap. Authors and inventors and fliers and steel magnates and journalists and suffragettes and ambulance drivers and private detectives and nightclub bouncers and newsboys and movie directors and handsome thugs wore it. Your grandfather wore it. Gable himself wore it. Immigrants wore it. It was what America wore. What happened? The trouble started. That’s what happened. Do your part. It’s time. Wear one. (It makes anyone who wears one look tall; if you’re already tall, too bad. You’re going to look even taller. It also makes you look young and snappy as well. So get ready for that, too.) The Handsome Thug Cap (No. 1265). Classic 6 panels, covered button on top. Bill snaps to top of cap. Handwoven Irish wool, soft and tweedy. Colors: Brown herringbone or Charcoal donegal, enriched with flecks of red, ocher, and cream. Men’s sizes: S, M, L, XL. Price: $88.
  5. Especially if its your cousin.
  6. The Sammy Hagar haircut will be back. Reardon is just ahead of his times. Check out the adrenaline soaked world of free soloing in Return2Sender: “It’s like being in a giant, eightfoot egg shell,” Reardon said. “It’s a way to zone out the rest of the world. If you worry about what’s outside that egg, though, that’s when you’re in trouble.” So its eggs, not balls, that allow him to do this. Pretty amazing...and Romantic Warrior looks like a beautiful climb.
  7. Ya, but I think they are from OR, not WA...so not off the hook yet.
  8. thats what happens when you make out before you're married.
  9. FYI, they're going to stop making vanilla coke at the end of the year. but you'll still be able the buy the Safeway vanilla coke, if you can live with that.

See this post for other details and information about the Bellingham show.

  20. MOUNTAINEERING HISTORIAN TO PRESENT “WAYS TO THE SKY” Author, climber and photographer Andy Selters will be presenting a multi-media digital show on the history of climbing mountains in North America. The show stems from his 2004 book, Ways to the Sky, which won top honors at the Banff Mountain Book Festival and the National Outdoor Book Awards. With images of historical climbs from every decade and from peaks from all over the continent, Selters' hour-long presentation charts the progression of mountaineering and its basis in our culture. Music from each period adds to the sense of historical progression. He will also be available to sign copies of his book. Andy has been a climbing guide, author and photographer for over 20 years, and he has pioneered new routes in the Karakoram, Himalaya and Andes. His diverse adventures have also included crossing Tibet by mountain bike, and leading cultural/fund raising treks in Ladakh. His previous books include The Mt. Shasta Book, and Glacier Travel and Crevasse Rescue. For more information you can contact Andy at info@andyselters.com Andy will also be giving this show at Western Washington University, Bellingham at 7pm on December 1st. Contact Chris Trepanier, trepanc@cc.wwu.edu, or 360-650-7533 for more information.
