Is this the thread about politics where everyone argues?

That movie was loosely based on the Stanford Prison Experiment. It is pretty messed up what people will do to each other in situations like that...

Gender specific cams. Discuss.

Or for women specific trekking poles for Mt. Si.

Didn't I see one of these in a Mountie thread? Is it really solar powered?

Could we get back to the seven essentials, please?

Anyone here have Dan make them a Zero SARC? What options/configuration did you go for? How is it working out for you? I've got an appointment to get myself some bling-bling next week.

Who is a punk now? You're so punk, you probably missed out on this opportunity to use your dividend, if you had one.

The "dividend" argument is pretty silly. I've never seen a more successful plan to get people to spend money that is already theirs! Oooh I have a $200 dividend! What will I spend it on? Idiots, that's money you have not spent yet! Take it back! Also, you don't get to apply purchases on the dividend to your future dividend. Yeah, there's some real savings. You obviously don't get the basic concept: The More You Spend, The More You Save. So, to break the cycle by not spending the dividend at REI, you end up costing yourself a lot of money. Now who is the idiot?

I could probably 80 lbs up....but sure as hell, not back down! Nice TR, BTW. The canal is operated under contract by COSCO now, I believe. (the Chinese govt shipping company) I'm sure they have no idea that it is, in any way, of strategic value. OK, you got me My knees are still killing me. Not a good idea, bringing that much weight up.

Up to the lake, not the summit, Mr. F. Reread the TR. And I have 3 other people that can prove it happened. And none of them are Dan -. I take you've been on that trail a time or two...fun stuff. Anyway, any true JB'er wants the Canal back!

Drivers from many nations are used to move supplies. I think the thing that most people are confused about is that we are not here to provide employment for every iraqi out of a job. In less than 60 days sovereign rule returns to the Iraqi people. We are not here to create a welfare state. We are here to stand them up so they can get on with governing themselves. Pull backs in Fallujah and many other places show a growing sense of position that the changeover is near and that these problems are an Iraqi problem. We will assist them, but they are going to have to take care of business and quit being the little Bitches that they are (and they fuckin are). They can drive trucks and in fact I would say that the average Iraqi driver is a much better driver than the average American. If you've ever driven in the middle east, say Jordan or somewhere, then you will know what I mean. It's the most accident free chaos you have ever experienced. So anyway, in our country with large unemployment and democrats screaming about shifting jobs overseas are you saying you advocate giving jobs to foreigners instead of honest Americans trying to make a living? Besides, no the majority of Iraqi's are not nutjobs and most of the time things are quite quiet and free from violence. The media has all of it all sexed up and senstationalized to give this place the appearance of anarchy. The news media is the enemy as far as I'm concerned. Twisted and biased. Nonetheless, NO I would not give an Iraqi trust over any military supplies or food stuffs destined for CPA, Mil or otherwise. At any rate in a few weeks this shithole will be turned back over to these punks, we can consolidate everyone, detach more security for our convoys and kill every Iraqi motherfucker that tries to bang heads with us. Glad to hear that we have everything sewed up over there and yall should be coming home soon. And they said there would never be peace in the Middle East!

Hey, what's your member #. I'm 3730905 ^10.

You're totally off topic here...

This is not possible! Every good global warming drone knows that record temperatures are only NOW being set... in the period that began January 2001. What is this 1913 nonsense? Please go back and re read your EarthJustice handbook and repeat the litany again, and again, and again. The sky is falling, the Earth is warming. Man is the cause! Man is the cause! (Repeat) By gosh, you took the words right out of my mouth! And when are we going to take back over the Panama Canal?

Before REI: After REI:

I can sum this one up for you: I was so punk and then Henry Rollins kicked me in the head. Also:

Man, I don't even go over there. Those SUV-driving westside yuppie scum wouldn't last a second over on the east side, where they take their pain out on each other, including their gear shopping! You wouldn't stand a chance on the east side! You make me sick! Don't start it with the East-side/West-side biz playa!

Ya, I'm a corporate tool too. My dividend last year was over $200. Stocking up on the seven essentials will cost ya, and you can't get that stuff at the small shops.

Ya, that one and The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers.

The Anna Kournikova of the climbing world.

Especially if you like to see people get naked for a free 60m rope.

Is this the top ten Mountie essentials list? Wait, that is only 7 items. That blender would be great for the basecamp wet bar. Now the kitchen sink...I prefer cast iron coated with enamel.
