    Finger Injuries

    in Fitness and Nutrition Forum

    ... my 47 year old fingers shouldn't be messing with that route...

     

    DING DING DING! That's the right answer.

     

    Just think, if you tear a tendon and can't climb for six months, you'll miss out on outdoor climbing in the spring and early summer (happened to me!). Is some indoor route worth that to you?

     

    You otter leave the tiny crimpers alone.

     

    Go ice climbing, skiing, hiking, weight lifting, running, kayaking, biking, fishmongering, shopping, reading, bowling.... instead.

     

    That's what you otter do.

    Racist Speech Illegal in England?

    in Spray

    Posted

    Unsavory speech and ideas are becoming outlawed around the globe:

     

    "a French parliamentary vote would make it a crime to deny that Armenians suffered "genocide" at the hands of the Turks."LINK

     

    Is the US far behind?

    It's all bullshit of course. You otter rebel.

    Experience w/ Metolius Offset Ultralights?

    in The Gear Critic

    They're great!

     

    We are really getting somewhere here.

     

    I think I otter go spit into the wind.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    To elevate the conversation, here are a few questions:

     

    1) Does the lack of vertical-placement-floppiness of the stem make these offsets less useful than aliens?

     

    2) I would guess the new, smaller brazing connection between the cable+axle makes the cam fit better into smaller pod cracks. Especially in the small cam sizes. True?

     

    3) The regular (non-offset) ultralights that I have used have a stiffer trigger pull than the older Metolius cams. Is that the case with these?

     

    4) Is the middle lobe the same size as the outer or inner lobe?

    Is that "Senate's #1 spender" label accurate?

     

    Since the war (at 9 BILLION dollars per month, $300 million/day, $12.5 million/hr, $208,000/sec) is by leaps and bounds the largest expenditure of the guvmint and Cantwell doesn't support duh war, I'd call BS on that label.

     

    You otter use yer noggin.
