A recent dispatch: "Dear Slovenians, It's nice to hear you're writting to me and my friends from base camp keep forwarding those messages to me - many of you would like to help, to donate money. I'm thankful for every warm thought, and fist clenching. Yesterday, they read me an e-mail sent by a little girl, who is praying for my safe retun from the mountain. And I had an idea, as we are all united here as brothers and not foes, therefore I hearby address this appeal to you, to finally remove this sin from our chests and build the paediatric clinic. My friends will open a transparent account, where all transactions will be traced and visible, so we can see how much money we will be able to raise, for our children's better future. Let's build the clinic, let's open our hearts and hands, I'm glad we're are all as one again - united. Thank you again for being with me with heart and soul, it gives me confidence and the idea of being united keeps me warm. Another night awaits me. I'll be freezing, and I haven't eaten in days ... But let's do this and make it happen - I'm already grateful for our children's better tomorrow. Thank you. by Tomaž Humar, mountaineer"

I just read it for the articles, I don't look pictures.

And you said you'd call me afterwards!!!

and explains why I keep copies of the National Geographic under my mattress.

without violence, this really isn't doing it for me.

what the hell got into you?

I just deleted the library of congress.

debauchery. so, amazingly enough, we're on topic.

Clearly a UPS worker.

My inanometer just went to eleven! Impressive!

wow. nice job. crazy looking pitch.

please. and post pics.

I'm pretty sure it is the practice of letting the little bastards free to run wild...sort of a zen thing. you've seen lord of the flies, right? They establish their own order.

ya...personality is more important, right?

was she a furry blonde?

the troop leaders make the troop. become scout master or a troop leader and take the little criminals on some expeditions.

You must be Jamaican, because Jamaican me crazy.

Do you work for UPS? I could have sworn I saw you checking out my package.

This is getting pretty good. We need to have a pubclub soon so we can work out this thing, even if it ends violently.

Also nice to have an extremely angry and armed pack of adults chasing you around in the middle of the night through a camp ground. good times.

I learned ninja skills from the midnight attacks on other troops campsites as the camporees. i learned how to stay up all night and still be functional the next day. I learned how truly violent capture the flag could be, especially when played in the middle of the night in an already dark forest. I learned that there are no limits to cruelty when it comes for a pack of little renegades. In short, I grew up with pack of criminals that rivaled those in Lord of the Flies.

Its actually a show down at High Noon. What you don't see across the street is a monkey and a clown, both also wearing cowboy hats and packing heat. Be glad you got out of there before the bullets started flying.

Thanks for the pictures. I'm going to have to get up that climb one of these days.
