Yes, but are they women, you actually want to see topless?

I'm unclear on why you think this. Is it that you find the phrase offensive? Is it the notion that someone who feels this way would be a McCain supporter? Is it my implication that xenophobic racism is present on our side as well as in the radical elements promoting jihad? How many people have you actually heard say this? Kill the towelheads, that is? Or is it something you just "suspect" you political adversaries to actually think?

Well said: however I highly suspect that once all of his other ideas and plans finally see the light of day, even the unwashed masses who voted him in will be unsatisfied like you cannot imagine. Some of you here will be looking back fondly on the Bush years, despite your yowls otherwise about it now. I think Bush's legacy will be a mixed bag. He's not a good president, nor is he a terrible one, but somewhere in the middle. Obama, like all politicians, is saying one thing to appeal to the people to get elected. Once in office (if he makes it), there is a good chance that 16 month plan will evaporate. Nixon ran on getting us out of Vietnam. 4 years later we were still there, and our involvement had actually increased. He still won reelection in '72!

You play right? So you can understand the fascination and obsession with playing right? I play/practice everyday. My son loves to hear the guitar.....sitting around the pool drinking foo foo drinks with umbrellas while playing flamenco is in my future..... umm, yeah, but I can live without my guitar for a family vacation.

Thanks for the info.....I do not want to go to Mexico for 10 days and not be able to play my guitar.... You can't live w/o your guitar for 10 days?

Tittie rings don't kill people!!!

He's not too picky. And with the decapitations, he's got an extra orifice.

I'm sure the Rooster would love to join that hot tub party.

I see you're suffering from HACE as a part of your recent high-altitude expedition.

Where will it all end!!! linky

The only traitor is Baghdad McDillhole.

SS didn't just come back from an epic multiday climb, where he could weather out storms reading damning reports on global warming junk science by headlamp.

SEAHAWKS PLEASE TURN ON YOUR OVEN AND STICK YOUR HEAD IN IT.

We are no longer at war with Eurasia, people!!!

Hey, Seahawks is back! Must have been an epic climb, dude - it's been so long. Post a TR!!!!!

Goddamnit! I posted an objective response that established that one of the premises (Taliban leaders visited Texas) is true, the other not true (Bush hosted them...although a conservative blog I searched indicated he "gave approval for the visit"); I passed no judgment otherwise! The fact that is was in 1998--pre 9/11 and pre GWB as prez--is also relevant, don't you think? What, were the Taliban our friends until 9/11? The mujahedin were

There's oil in Canada? Invade!

Cool! Now we can buy even larger Hummers!

As I said, WE don't put fatwas on people for writing offensive cartoons. I'm not gonna start shitting all over what Americans do, when those nuts over there are so far worse in their (over)reactions than we are.

As if cartoonists - or cc.com posters - don't do exactly the respect w/r/t to Jesus and Christianity.

My 6 year old is going skiing with me tomorrow. Screw baseball!

When I bought my boots back in '04 REI (flagship) had like 15 pairs of different $400 technical ice climbing boots, and only about 3-4 types of mountaineering boots. A total WTF... Now I think they've just got a very small selection of climbing boots. Cascade Crags used to be a cool place to check out to (in Everett). They don't sell all the climbing stuff that they used to now that they were bought by VW.

It's snowing in downtown Seattle right now. Freshiez!

The flagship store is better than the other stores, that is for sure. I never take a chance anymore going to Redmond or Issaquah if I am going to buy some climbing gear. I go to Seattle. More recently I have bought biking and skiing stuff at REI, not climbing gear, and I order for in-store delivery. I got my kids' skiing boots cheap in off-season sales. And you are right the selection in general sucks and is limited. Before a big purchase, I always check out Marmot and FF because they care different brands and models of stuff. I also search for sales online, but don't order stuff I have to try on.
