Don't tell me your still under the impression that research is supposed to work, and do things like give you reasonable data , and makes sense are you? I know a pour sould who's in the fifth year of masters degree because he keeps hoping to get "good" data. Poor guy. I finally just ignored the 3/5's of my data that I didn't like, and now it all makes perfect sense

lmao, how can that be! I still thinkgood morning is an oxymormon.

Sleep well? Or recovering from the red wine?

Now your just raising more proelbems. We don' need more problems we need solutions!

Now were right back to the discussion about holes

a little verbose, eh? doesn't the word 'liberal' cover all that? Says the self righteous, holier than thou, gun stroking, inferiority complex rideen, neo-con. Or am I being redundant again?

Someone got some good coffee, that's what it is.

Is that the best you can do? My god your a vapid whiny little liberal. I won't even dignify it with a the thought it takes to respond.

D. All of the above? Come on minxy, time for a TR.

Monitoring holes doesn't sound like too bad job. Of course it might depend on the kind of hole you have to watch.

mmmmmm, venison, mmmmmmmm

Hunt. So what's the limit, do you need tags, do you eat what you bag or is it just for sport?

That explains soo much. So... got any cheap gear your willing to give away since you don't climb?

I think someone is trying to brown nose they're way onto the next Mox Peak expedition

Are you in need of some good hocky action? And for those of you casting dispersions on my weather forcasting skillz... Vantage: Sat 65 and 10% pop Sun 66 and 20% pop (Leavenworth 2 degrees cooler both days) It's gonna be sunny somewhere else at least

Ok, where do you live? We'll transplant it to your place!

Time to go to Vantage or Tieton over the weekend! Well that and drink heavily and have lots of sex.

I've been eyeing the Beal Rando (8mm 30m, for $60) and wondering if I can get away with that, or if it'll be too short? Specs look good, it's just the length that concerns me.

I know, you just don't like chrome domes! That's what it is!

I believe the correct term is "Blows Goats" Though we should probably have one of the resident sheep-shaggers way in to be sure.

Son of a Bush just barely got elected twice in a row, with the country so split it was incredible. Depending on who Clinton is up against, but the best I think she can hope for is %50 of the popular and electoral votes, give or take just enough that it might be a toss up. If it's Condi, McCain, or Powell, she's sunk though. If they do something stupid like Frist, or Cheney, or one of the harder line Rep. she'd have a chance though. The Rep.'s would really have an awfully bad candidate for her to be assured a win. P.S. I'd vote for and think she'd probably do a great job. I just don't think she's electable unluckily. Primarly because I don't think most people really vote on issues or platforms, but on feelings and impressions.

3 people mostly, possibly 2 on occasion. On the off chance there's 4 it shouldn't be an issue to spread out the weight of the 50x9.8mm.

It's not that she's not human, it's just the vibe she sends out. Look at the last few presidents.... GW, Clinton, Reagan, Carter all had that relatively "homey" you'd invite them to your house for a BBQ feel to them. Then the ones who were eloquent and thoughfull to boot cleaned up the elections (Reagan, and Clinton). I honestly believe that perception of someone you can relate to is necessary for a portion of the population to vote for a candidate. While look at the recent candidate that lost Mondale, Kerry, Gore, Dole, Dukakis. A different portion of the middle seems to need a candidate who is thoughtful, and well spoken and willing to consider issues from other veiwpoints (and these people end up leaning towards Dem.) The only anomaly was Bush Senior, but he was running against Dukakis, and was the VP as well. They both lacked that "homey" feel and GW's met was thoughtfull and well spoken enough to pull part of the middle that usually leans democratic. Then he got his ass handed to him by Clinton who was incredibly eloquent but still had the right feel to pull the republican leaning middle. The bases vote part line, but it's the middle right now that swing the election and 1/2 seem to need that "homey" feel, and 1/2 need the assurance that the candidate will look at problems from their perspective and can eloquently express their positions to explain any apparent discontinuties.

Ok, I'm sure this has been hashed over before, but I can never seem to find a damn thing with searchs so.... I'm looking at picking up a dedicated glacier rope (if I do any ice climbing i'll start on the single ropes I have, but don't expect to do much in the next few years). It will be primarily used on local volcanoes and low angle glacier stuff (Dog routes or only slightly more challenging on Baker, Shuksan, Rainer, Dome, etc) so i'm more interested in trimming wait while remaining safe but i've only ever used a 50m 9.8 on glaciers and this seems overkill. so.. length... 30m, 40m, 50m? and why.... Diameter(probably a Twin rope?) 7.6mm, 8mm, 8.5mm? Thanks in advance everyone!

No, thursdays are the ones that really suck ass. I fuckin hate thursdays!
