You gots to git that tirlit unplugged!

Ya, there's no way the Ham could compete. I mean, Abbotsford has an airshow! Here is an example of what Hamsters do for fun:

WTF are you thinking, it doesn't get named until it gets sent! I heard Sharma put up a problem on it, but he declined to rate it. He called it "Detour" or something like that.

Reminded me of the 1991 movie "Slacker".

In the future, please stop making fun of me!

Last time I went cragging with an American we spent some time looking for a climb as well. Must be some national disfunctionality. Jolly good work chaps! Pax, I have a bent shaft shrike set you can borrow next time if you haven't made the big purchase.

A couple of avie fatalities in Idaho. RIP

Hello! Looking for highly motivated partners interested in climbing 8000m peaks as well as some Cascade jewels. I have all gear, including a rope and harness. You be the same.

A pair of lightly used size 11 (US) 5.10 T-Rocks for sale. Check out the details here. Color: Red as in this picture: List price $138.00 Will sell for $60.00 Local Seattle sale only, so you can try them on. They are size 11 US/10 UK/44 1/2 UK, but they're too small for me. I normally wear size 10 1/2 to 11, but these things run small. I have another pair of 5.10s in the same size that fit me. What gives? I don't know. So...keep this in mind...you'll definitely want to try them on before you buy. They're great shoes if they fit!

Did you get it at Bellis Fair Mall?

Dear Byotch, Thanks for you letter of concern! Upon deliver of your precious message, I immediately devoured the contents. No, I didn't read it. I ate the letter. It was delicious. What ever your concern was, it does not impact me in the slightest. In fact, I don't even know you exist. I actually don't think that you do. At anyrate, I'm sending this message out to please my fancy, and demostrate what a witty cad I am. Sometime I dress up like Napoleon Bonaparte and go shopping at Safeway. Whimsical, eh? Anyway, I apologize for the problems you may have had. But, you see, I've been going to college here for 9 years now, and I've seen it all. It is always stupid ass petty problems, and never a single real issue. "What about me...blah, blah, blah." Get over yourself. Think about those people in Malaysia with the tsunamia! Do you think your petty little problem compares? .....any, that is a start. You could probably close by telling them to go get a refund for their college tuition or something. Good luck!

Thanks for bringing this up. So, did anybody watch the first football game today? Steelers vs. Jets? It wasn't too bad.

I believe, based on prior information from this website, that those cars are correctly called "Lesbarus". Could be wrong though....

Was this thread started by Caddis? My partner, the liar?

You pass. I'll climb with you. PM me if you've got something in mind.

I'd like to take a small bit of your time to advertise my patented partner selection process. It only takes minutes, and you'll be please with the results. I can't really reveal any of the details, but I do take PayPal.

Here are some more questions to ask: 1. What is the hardest climb you done? Why? Why? Why? 2. Demonstrate a munster hitch. (trick question) 3. Who is Fred Beckey? What mountain did he have a FA for (another trick question!) 4. What is "spooning"? Who is your favorite partner to perform this with? Why? Why? 5. Have you ever failed a personality test? 6. Do you like gladiator movies? 7. Half empty or half full? 8. Do you know who I am? Tell me about myself. 9. How many posts do you have at cc.com? 10. Have you ever Z-clipped in the gym?

I don't see how you can beat just going to local crag with someone and climbing something. There are general skills and then there is climbing ability, you can make an assessment just by observing in some semi-controlled conditions...and also just by their attitude. But determining whether you're going to climb with someone just by interrogating them doesn't seem to be great way to start off a friendship of the most funnest. I would think someone with allergies would know it and be concerned for thier own life and let you know?

I always give my partners a belay test before I'll climb with them. But if they have a belay card from somewhere else, I usually accept it.

Up in B'ham I worked with a guy who was given to violent fits of rage at no notice what so ever. He worked in the recieving department at the Homebase that used to be up there, and I remember him having one fit at a pallet of lightbulbs...which he proceed to wrap up and put up in top stock...I doubt there was a bulb intact in the whole pallet. You just stayed the hell out of his way until it was over.

so....swaterfall, was it one of these to guys that you're talking about?

Thats because he is popular with ladies.

Heading over to FF to get liners fit by the "Sultan of Skiing" tomorrow.

That would be Dolly and Kenny, you ski ballet punter.

You're preaching to the choir. But you swallow.
