I think Alex summed it up great for you, even though it sounds like you have it pretty well figured out and don't need much help! If you continue with this hobby for more than a couple years, you WILL end up with multilples of many things. So don't beat yourself up too much about gear decisions. Go with what is right for your current circumstance, with an eye for the future. Then make mental notes of what you end up disliking about said gear and remember that for the next time your make a purchase! While I agree with Griz that at some point, you'll want to pick up some glacier instruction/experience and experience with elevation, it doesn't seem like you need it right now for what you want to do over the next few years. Get your basic skill set down with a local school or group and practice practice practice. When you're comfortable with the camping/climbing thing and are ready to move on, then perhaps schedule a few weeks out west and get some glacier/altitude under your belt. Just another take on it. There are many! -kurt

Back-end support? New product line?

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo. As Dru nicely pointed out in a different post, the "language" was spawned by hackers. Better stick with those random letter/number/upper-lower case combos!

Also, try posting using all bold type. THIS is what truly pleases the gods of CC.com. Before harming the goat, get Oly to define for you "Sacrafice a goat." It may be different than you are thinking. Don't forget - bold type.

I don't see any deleted posts here...

Wow. Good point.

I wouldn't try that one folks. Last I checked, you can make it to Stampede Pass and listen to the power lines crackle, but you can't go any further west. Roads are closed through the watershed. Looks great on a map, but they don't show the gates. -kurt

Hi Dan!

Thanks for the edumacation. I now know that whenever I mispell something, I'm just being cool, or whatever you leetists call it!

t3h? Think you have secret coded typo there, dontcha?

Nah... he's just punching his head

Why don't you like it when I get things backwards? I thought you were into that sort of thing That's why she has that tatoo, isn't it?

Bipolar opposites. Nothing in common to discuss.

How about holdin' down the alt key and then keying in "0153". ™ For copyright, it's alt+0169 © The registered mark is alt+0174 ® Just plain ASCI codes. No fancy schmancy smackintosh computer required. -kurt

You didn't, by chance, piss off the barkeep before he poured you that beer, did you? Hmm...

After reading this, I just can not... can NOT... believe that you were a cheerleader. Impossible. Are you making fun of me??? I'm not sure...but I'm pretty sure you are....that is just not nice!! Hey... at least I'm not laughing AND pointing. Just laughing.

Damn. You got your whole fist in your mouth? Or you just have long fingers? Either way, very impressive. Impressive indeed.

If you still think your clit is near your uvula, I wouldn't throw up. Stomach acid, y'know. Might be painful. And not in a nice sort of way.

cuz you're wearing them dude! give'em back! Touche.

Entertainment. Exactly. So why you gettin' your panties in a twist?

Stefan, I think you're talking about a Berliner Weisse, no? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berliner_Weisse Primary difference between this and other wheat bears is the lactic cultures used along with the yeast - a lot like some of the Belgian ales and wine. Should have a real "tangy" aftertaste, low alcohol.

Must have something to do with advertising.

...and while pretty OK, you can definitely find better. If you're on the Eastside, try Orexi in downtown Bellevue. Yum. Another thumbs up for Spiro's in downtown Kent. It was started by the couple that used to own Spiro's in Des Moines... the little two-table shack in the QFC parking lot. Speaking of... that place is still pretty good too! OK... I'm hungry again. Damn.
