  1. Frankly, all of you As-the-World-Turns gawkers need to go somewhere else - we don't need a half-dozen people transcribing the same CNN broadcast. From a guy with 10 posts, lol! I'm not saying that I'm more than a gawker, but yeesh!

    There are different varieties of wild turkey. I have been drinking "Wild Turkey rare breed" and it's ok. There is a rye that is among my favorites, called "Tangle Ridge." Don't know if you get it down there, but it is very good at a reasonable price in Canada.
  5. Has anyone tried these? They are super cheap at sport junkies. In fact, so cheap that I am suspicious of quality...

  7. Congrats!! I am reading this at 5 am because I have a 6 week old. And I wouldn't have it any other way! While it is true that a many sleepless nights and alot of human waste are in your future, do not stress about it. Your perception of these things will change. A poopy diaper will become cause for celebration, and even after your darling has gone to sleep, you may find yourself lingering well into the dawn, gazing in wonder at the amazing being in your arms. Good luck to you, I am sure you will be a wonderful father.
  8. He left his ropes behind because his GF was whining to go home!?!!?
  9. I don't believe you!! Nice try at a cover-up though.
  10. No, I didn't go any farther than the falls. I never hoot and holler, I hate that! There was a pretty jolly looking fellow that came out as I went in around 2pm. And I think you just gave away your "secret alpine objective" LOL!
  11. Out for a walk today, I saw a perfectly climbable 60 meter WI2+/3 about an hour and a half up evans creek trail. I didn't have a camera, d'oh! Anyone local want to drag some tools in there tomorrow morning, while it is still cold?
  12. I recalled something about this guy from my time in thunderbay. My friend in Tbay had this to say about Shaun Parent:

  16. Some folks have turned their xboxes into browsers by installing an OS The new Nintendo is called the Revolution I thought this thread was going to be more interesting....
  17. Hey Oleg, sorry to hear that you are having trouble. Tell me, what does he do in his room? Internet connection in there? PS2? When I got my kids back, they were 6 and 7, and playing a lot of nintendo by themselves in the basement. I just sat down with them and played along. Watched the same things they do, played the same games. I still do 10 years later. I don't know if that would work for you guys at this stage. One thing, from my experience and also the recurring theme in the responses here, is that the patterns established pre-puberty reassert themselves in adulthood, despite the rough transition that some folks face. That is to say, the wonderful child he was will resurface. Reconcile yourselves to the fact that he is having a rough time, and be there for him in whatever capacity he can handle. Perhaps you are feeling guilty, wondering what you did wrong. Even if you did something "wrong," you must let go of your expectations and self-doubt, and simply try to make him feel comfortable around you. (requires alot of the inner "ommmm" LOL) Why don't you bring him up here for a day or 2. Leave him with my kids and we'll go climb something (have to be easy though, I'm in bad shape...)
  18. Many years ago, I was swearing my way up some shit climb in Skaha. Later, coiling my rope in rejected disgrace, a father and 2 young boys walked by. I heard one of the boys say "Is that the man who was yelling, Daddy?" I don't do that anymore.
  19. Of the millions of fantastic ice climbing photos out there, why this lame WI3 TR? I like the ring though, so I guess the ad is effective.
  20. Who the hell sells all their gear cuz they move? Ask the guy a few questions Oly, the stuff is probably hot.
  21. Testicular elephantiasis
  22. Evolution of complex systems is a fascinating topic. If any one is interested, here is an article on The Santa Fe Institute as well as the website of the institute itself. I spent a lot of time reading papers from here when I was a student, and you used to be able to download a copy of "Swarm," a neat program for modeling complex systems based on very simple sets of rules. In particular I was fascinated by the crossover work between biological evolution and macroeconomics - mathematical models of complexity theory that seem to apply to both fields.
  23. Courthouse in here in PoCo, half an hour ago. Maybe they are more catholic?? Mourning the passing of affordable gasoline?
