no recess.

This lead me to believe you had wrote this for publication. I didn't know this part was fiction Anyway, if you intend on getting published in anything other than an internet website, you're most likely going to need to improve your writing skillz. Otherwise, the editor is going to need to edit the story to such a point that it won't be yours anymore.

There is definitely some editing you should do. There are whole sentences that don't add to the story that you could cut out. Also, keep track of the tense you are using, and be consistent (or at least keep tense the same within each narrative). The best supporting pictures to your stories are: #1, #2, #3, (#3 or #4, but pick just one), the article, #7, #8, #9, #10 (this one is good), and maybe the next to last picture of your foot. Maybe choose those, and don't submit all of them? I'm not sure if you where looking for criticism or not, but here it is. Nice start, interesting to read your story. Good luck on getting it published.

The fun doesn't stop there. Check out the answer to the question posted on his auction:

Because it's there.

I was getting ready to give up on this site till I came across this thread. Then I remember what brings me back, time and time again. The quality trip reports. The elegant prose. The insightful debate on windshirts. The good times having a chuckle with the boys (and gals). You guys are swell! Keep it coming!

Exactly. This photo was taken on a planet other than earth. I'm not going to ruin the secret "proj" a buddy of mine is working on by giving it up though.

You're younger looking than I thought you would be.

Here's the deal. I'm a big baller. In the gym, I have TWO (2) cards on my harness. I think that more the establishes my rank. First of all, windshirts are for pansies. WTF do you need a windshirt for? You might as well wrap yourself up in tissue paper. I only wear Filson oilskin jackets. Not only do they look good in the gym, but they can take a beating. "Might as well have the best"

Bump. These shoes should fit someone who normally wears 9.5-10. I just had someone who says they normally wear 10.5-11 try them on and they were too small. They're made of synthetic leather, so they're not going to stretch. Cash or trade.

I would love to go, but gotta work What a nice day we're having here.

I think you're all neglecting the fashion angle. I find that Patagonia clothing accessorizes better and is cut for the man of the mountains. Their spring lines tend to be fresh, colorful, and organic. They are versitile, usable for trail running, mountain biking, nordic skiing, hiking, or backbacking....all in one garmet. Wild Things seems to tend toward unimaginative colors names. They say "function" to the fashion oriented mind. Patagonia has colors such as "Bonfire Orange" or "Solar Green". In the end, I've got to say you should buy them both, because one is never enough, and you'll have options.

REI to carry moonboots!

Case in point: This little spastic ski dancer wannabe.

That was you? And I thought you'd never piss your way out of a wet paper bag ski dancer boy.

Shite, that thing is gonna be going down the river pretty soon!

Kill the pig! Kill the pig!

Don't worry, Alberto Gonzales will be on the case soon. Look for him to torture who ever broke these stories.
