  1. Pure racist hate at a rally in PA http://www.youtube.com/morrillmajority
  2. Maybe I am insane, but I assume customer service is a crucial part of any business. The three times I've stopped by the Seattle store, the punks behind the counter simply couldn't be bothered to stop yacking about getting wasted and/or "sick park sessions" to acknowledge the fact that a customer was actually in the shop and wanting help. I will happily steer people elsewhere.
  3. Pro Ski in N Bend is still run by Martin Volken and is highly recommended (the ski tech, Caley, knows his sh*t). The Seattle location isn't, and it shows (shopkeeps are too busy "bro-brahing" to interact with lowly customers). Second Ascent also does a great job mounting D'fits. Marmot charges double what they should.
  4. I heard the news when you did, second hand. It's even more staggering to get it straight from the horse's mouth.
  5. She cannot name a single publication she reads, not even "People" or "Reader's Digest?" http://pl.youtube.com/watch?v=xRkWebP2Q0Y
  6. A 20 year old college student who supports the GOP? Yeah, right. Obviously, the story is fake.
  7. 479 Euros? Sweet jesus, do they push you uphill, or give you a "happy finish?" thanks for the links.
  8. I wonder how long they've known? 25 is a nice, round number, and to profile El Cap- saving the best for last?? And the last paragraph on the last page ends with a "dirt nap." Funny, eh?
  9. Why is Arcteryx the only company making serious ski bibs? Patagucci, THF, others used to make sweet ski bibs, now it is all just pants...am I now just another angry old guy like McCain? Second Ascent has piles of superb used almost new bibs- in women's, and men's small. Arghhhhh!
  10. Oh crap. I knew it was too damn good, too damn glossy, and too expensive to survive forever.
  11. Prole- I thought the same thing. The subtext there is straight out of a KKK rally. McCain is either staggeringly clueless, or trying to stir up really bad sh*t to help out his numbers....
  12. Didtcha mean "STFU NOOBIE GAPER JONG?"
  13. Pretty positive the laffs from Ms Cariboo Barbie will be FAR funnier. and sadder, too.
  14. Biggest issues are the 900+ inches of snow (even with skis, trying to move uphill in nipple deep drifts? you'll be puking after 10 minutes), serious avalanche dangers, etc etc. And in a serious blizzard whiteout (not just fog) your GPS and wands are not going to help. Snowcave for 4 days? That's your option.
  15. The fact that there are plenty of real hardmen and women in the area, and very very few winter TRs should tell you something! Just getting to Muir in the winter can be nearly impossible. Not to say you shouldn't try, but it is a whole other type of endeavor than a summer stroll.
  16. Yeah, saw those a few weeks ago at the Issy store. Dumb as tits on a boar.
  17. And the rock sucks. Unless, of course, you have a thing for razor sharp dinner plates.
  18. Hi! My name is Sarah! I'm from Alaska and like to kill things like moose, wolves and criminals, but never, ever an immature fetus! I've never actually traveled anywhere, except for a military base where I was surrounded by other people just like me the entire time. Jesus is my lord a personal savior, and I want to make sure he's yours too! My journalism degree is super useful when I need to talk to those reporters and things! You should vote for me, 'cause I am the prettiest girl in the 11th Grade, oops, I mean, toughest woman running for office!
  19. Also good for alpine funk, when you can set 'em real tight in icy cracks with a few good whacks. Bugaboos are even better for that however, and rack much more cleanly....

    So, it's just a private family matter, eh? Then why the hell is the front page of the Seattle Times now showing a slick photo-op with McCain meeting the lucky lad? Asshat hypocrites! "well, since it's out there, how can we manipulate it to favor our platform?"

    Favorite RNC Quotes

    sweet jesus, that is priceless.
  22. The fact that anyone thinks she might be an excellent, viable candidate for the job makes me realizes that our great country, our great democracy, is so royally screwed we might as well just throw it in. End of empire; the idiots have won, let's just shut off the light and devolve back to primordial soup. Sanity, reason, and intellect have lost; it's over.

    palin pregnancy

    Agreed- wiki says she got her first passport in 2007, to visit US airbases in Kuwait. Hard to have opinions about "foreignurs" when you've never left the country!!!

    McCain's VP

    wiki says, "Palin obtained her first passport in 2007 and visited members of the Alaska National Guard stationed in Kuwait.[42]" So, she had never left the country until ONE YEAR AGO??? And she wants to be VP? Are they freakin' joking???
