Increased risk for what exactly?

there are treadmills at the gym?

Heck, I can't believe how boring baseball is...

Last month there was a sign up at skulls hollow about it possibly becoming a pay area. I don't know if that sign is always up as an encouragement to keep the place clean or if that is actually a possibility. I just thought I'd mention it in case someone plans on camping for free and ends up with a surprise.

And, I would think that the demands of bearing a child need to be weighed by any woman. And then, she gets to make that choice, not social standards.

Actually, the genetic goofs in a man's sperm rise in number as he ages.

very. My dad was forty when he had me--his first. That was a big deal back then, but I don't remember anyone asking him to defend his choice. And everybody knows that sixty is the new forty

ouch

Didn't say that. 1. I don't like rogers corner, the width of some of the moves feels strange to me 2. I don't like ows.

Beautiful!

Well, ok. But it is the only Scramble book I've ever had. I'm trying here...

That is a valid concern. The year I lived in WYS and made that drive back to my family in BZ on a fairly regular basis I passed the time counting the white crosses on the side of the road. There were 92 that year.

There is a great book called 75 Scrambles in Washington.

Immigration only works when the immigrants adopt the rules and the language of their new country. thats kinda what i was thinking, but then does that make me a racist? or a countryist? I was also thinking that i don't really give a shit what religion or culture they are talking about, but when people start violating other peoples human rights in a country where that is already on the law books as against the law... something is seriously messed up. yet If i do indeed voluntarily partake in alternative love practices... well thats my business. Agreed. My mother immigrated from Europe to this country when she was 18. She learned the language, follows the laws, picked up the customs, got an education, developed a career, you know, became american. It seems like if one doesn't want to do some of these basic things, then one wouldn't want to come here in the first place. Call me a simpleton, but I wouldn't want to move to an Islamic country that said I had to wear a burqa and was not allowed out of the house. I would want to move somewhere that already exhibits the values that I would like to have in my life. I don't think that makes you racist. I think people want to make it an issue of racism or intolerance b/c those are easy arguments to make and don't deal with the issue of integration/assimilation.

Gee, thanks! As if our take on a route wouldn't be subjective as well.

Hmmm, I just remember jugs and laybacks. Sometimes the approach one takes makes all the difference in the world. I try not to dislike a climb just because I lack a peculiar skill needed for it. Sometimes though we just don't have the right body type for a given climb. Hands too big, hands too small, too tall, too short, etc. Some climbs are just plain ugly though. Considering the subject of climbs with no holds... I find that climbs that in the past had no holds suddenly sprout jugs when I climb them again with better skills. It's miraculous, really. Well, I have only been climbing for eleven years, so maybe I just haven't learned to take the right approach yet.

especially this part: NOw, I am not saying that it would be ok for your neighbor to cut anyone's balls off, but if she honestly, truly believed this, then she would need to lobby to have this passed as a law, or talk her male friends into getting a testiclectomy. Otherwise, she is just saying that this is how things ought to be without doing a fucking thing about it. And that is lame.

please reread my post.

Oh sorry. Because it sucks. The wierd width of that climb right in the spots where there is the tiniest bit of overhang makes it uncomfortable for someone who doesn't like ow's to start with--moi.

The discussion is not based on clarification between different factions of the religion. And as billcoe very clearly stated, the intracacies within the Islamic religion are just as convoluted as those within Christianity. I think at this stage most folks have a grasp of that--even if their vehemence doesn't give them time to back up and state that. About the right to believe as one will--sure, its hard to disagree with that. The problem is that ones beliefs are generally the basis for their actions (or at least I would hope so). If you are acting differently than what your belief system dictates, then you are actually coming very close to living up to that word most people misuse--a hypocrite. NOw, I am not saying that it would be ok for your neighbor to cut anyone's balls off, but if she honestly, truly believed this, then she would need to lobby to have this passed as a law, or talk her male friends into getting a testiclectomy.

Not an option in MT during winter. If you get desperate and are panicked, I can get you a room in WYS. But, you will have to commute thru the Gallitan canyon when you want to get to BZ. The room will be cheap, but the gas won't be. Fortunately, there are other people who commute, so you may be in luck there. My cousin lives right outside BZ and knows a bunch of folks. If you can't do the WYS thing and you get down to the wire, let me know and I'll call up my cuz and ask him if he knows anyone with a room.
