Sheer numbers make up the difference. Gotta say, the snow is better, though.

Its not like the water really gets much colder

SAT NIGHT W WIND 10 KT. WIND WAVES 1 FT. W SWELL 18 FT. SUN SW WIND 10 TO 15 KT RISING TO 15 TO 25 KT IN THE AFTERNOON...THEN BECOMING S 10 TO 20 KT IN THE EVENING. WIND WAVES 1 OR 2 FT BUILDING TO 3 OR 4 FT. W SWELL 20 FT. Looks like it'll be firing in the straights this weekend. Prolly better stick around and surf.

Well. Id also take boulder over Seattle any day. Its a great town overall with some of the best planning Ive seen. I wouldnt pass it up right now, I just couldnt afford to buy there, nor would I want to stay for the duration. My gf is there right now working for the nature conservancy and she loves it. She's only supposed to be there for a couple months, but I can already tell that Im going to have to either drag her back, or move out there myself.

...and you may as well add boulders brown cloud problem to the list. Nasty. Bend has the cleanest air my sensitive alveoli have ever witnessed.

Yeah, but you add encroaching Denver and the yuppie factor (which is way more of a presence than in bend), you negate about half or more of your boulder list. I agree, bend is getting out of hand as far as sprawl and price, but ill take it over bouder any day- you dont have to fight the denver-ites for all of those lovely rec areas in bend...for now.

Woodenville. Thats it! Burnside is fine if you're coming from portland, but isnt it quicker to take 84 out if your coming from the north?

Yeah, you just take the wood-something, or something-wood exit. I just look for wood. Hope this helps!

...and I was just about to apologize, Knotzen, for wrecking your thread. However, I see that it's back in full force, so, spray on

Thanks E. Dont know how I missed that back in August, but thats some pretty creative shit. Is this Becks signature piece, or does he have better? It'd be a damn shame if this is all it takes to get a fella banned.

Easy there selkirk. Learn from others mistakes

It sounds as if this one would be well worth reviving. At least it would be a nice change from the nodder or fat housecats. Do share. I know you've got the link written down somewhere

My condolences to the family and friends of Carl. I, unfortunately, did not know him.

Wait til you get about 27737 more posts under belt. You'll be drivilling nonsense like a severely decompensated alzheimers patient, and then it will all make sense.....to you.

Im 30. I just have never really watched much tv, much less canadian programming.

Who's teddy ruxpin, some canadian national hero? Enlighten me on some cannuck history, please dru.

Frightningly familiar, eh Archie?

Ok, you're right. This is anything but inane.

Surely you jest. Im noticing that your response times have only gotten quicker.

May I suggest something with a significantly higher sedative potential?

Um. Fuck off. Well, enema, I wasnt talking to you. I know its only 2 in the afternoon, but perhaps you should have a drink and try to relax a bit. As a token of my sincerity, in the future, Ill preface anything that I have to say to you directly with a . Deal?

Hmmm... I have no idea what you just said , but Im willing to bet it doesnt apply to me, so, as you were.

inane

....and the frozen dead guy. Was that Nederland? All those little hippy communes start to look the same.

An amazing yarn indeed. I think I read it in one sitting- a hard book to put down.
