read the news. And sorry, but I can't take anyone seriously with the name "blurpy".

Sorry, but your simplistic analysis is not playing out.

And you are saying a 20:1 kill ratio is losing?

Russia is pissed off because of NATO expansion. They are not emboldened by us - they are acting out of fear. Hezbollah, the PLO, and other palestinian terroristts have been doing the same shit since long before Bush came into office.

And we can pick off Al Qaeda. No need to go to them, they come to us. You are arguing FOR an occupation of Iraq. Al Qaeda can and does recruit new members, however, they have been decimated in their fight against us in Iraq. Most of their leaders are dead, and now violence is down. Hmm...

well, duh, it was vandalized and stripped of all it's valuable parts. who the hell wants to move into that kind of neighborhood?

EXACTLY. They are acting not out of a feeling of "boldness" but out of fear that they are next, a position of inferiority not security. This situation may not be desirable, but it doesn't change the fact that saying our enemies are "emboldened" is bullshit.

That's complete and total bullshit. We have not emboldened any of our enemies - we've scared the shit out of them.

Typical liberal mentality: 1) We "can't" - mindset of failure, 2) "we need a dialogue" = replace any action with endless "talk" about doing something.

Lame. Clearly we SHOULD be concerned about whether our government's actions are making us safer or not, and we SHOULD NOT rely upon the "intelligence community" to tell us the answers. Has there been a terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11?

rhymes with with kinky And "Pinky". Perhaps I was too hasty in my identification of the perpetrator...

And to boot - often, the cairns are off-route. I think I'd rather not have cairns at all, since so many are wrong, and can lead one astray.

linky

I'd like to hear folks comment on what routes maybe should not be in the list... and what should in their place. I've heard some folks talk up the merits of the E ridge of Forbidden as opposed to the W, for example.

does a pass have to lead to a climbing area to qualify? i can't come up with any passes that really really suck and lead to climbing areas.

Minx doesn't climb. Do you really have that much reading comprehension difficulties?

No it dont. the CC is a walk up..... yeah, ok, but she could look over the edge at climbers topping out.

yep, I saw the notice yesterday. Looks like a few of us just slipped in to the area in the nick of time.

don't listen to her, Scott, she's just playing hard to get

Yes, the Cascadian Couloir. Aasgard is a joyful walk in the park by comparison. cc don't lead to no pass though, so don't really count eh? what's a climbing conversation doing in spray?!? this is not climbing conversation. minx doesn't climb

it gets you to where people climb (w/o climbing)... I dunno, maybe there is a pass up there that you could tag to make it "official" for your purposes. I'd have to look at a map

Gregoire looks like one of those lizard people from "V".

she likes her dirty sanchez

or standing to close to a Whisperlight an hour or two after consuming a 2-person Mountain House Chili Mac...
