We did......very hard to do being I love TV but we decided we did not the TV to become a pacifier. So the TV went into the garage…..we don’t have a microwave either.

Yes John.....I have been swooped by those falcons about three times in 11 years of climbing there. There are silent until they are on you..... One time we got swooped on the ledge......matter of fact it was on this day that the group got swooped. This was opening day about 9 or 10 years ago and the bird kept swooping the ledge. We tried to not give the bird any attention, because we love the beautiful birds. The Birds always come first.

First you must define "the route".....the crux does not come until the last 25 feet of the climb.

We had 25 draws with us. I led the first 7 pitches in one pitch.....I skiped about 25 bolts to do it.

Well at least in know you can climb a ladder!

Are you asking me? If so....I have no idea. I do know that Mark D did the FA on the chossy ramp to the left of Pipeline in 04 or 05.

Is how hard I climb these days......

What he/she said!

Very clever!

Talk about a wet blanket!

Yeah....what the Commander said!

The recap is: a) you once again understood nothing; b) you once again added nothing of substance. :lmao: You funny man

So on a recap....what did we decide on this thread?

So true.....we should all meet for beers sometime and laugh about this.

done Hee hee

Can someone rename this tread "Popes realization"?

Sakes alive! Where does one even begin? 1. I hope you never fell, hung, or aided, since it's a friggin' 10b! It would have been a bit more bold if you had chosen a grade that you actually might have trouble with! (since you're into hardman action figure worship etc.) 2. So you didn't use chalk? You know, on those overhangs, it rarely gets washed out completely in the rain. Plus I heard you squeezed one at the crux; if that isn't a mess, I don't know what is. 3. one could argue, but that would be silly, wouldn't it? As far as being "out of (my) league": I'm not bragging, nor am I much of a solo afficionado, but I've hopped on a few things before sans rope, including Orbit onsite (scary), St. Vitus Dance 15 years after doing it (11a or so, and no you don't want to fall, and it felt like an onsite), and various other climbs onsite to 11a. No rehearsal! So I'm probably not out of my league when entering into a conversation with Mr. Rehearsal about these things....(btw, this information is NOT meant to one-up you; soloing for me is kinda personal, but when you make these silly Mr. Football ego claims, it kinda gets to me....) What else? Oh "trivialized 5.13". Should 5.13 remain on your ancient pedestal to be worshipped for all of eternity? Are you sore that kids and grandmas climb the grade, yet you and dwayner never have? I don't get it.... Who's bragging? The only "bragging" I heard was your solo bragging (which I thought was originally kinda fun); plus, what is the term for the equation x=x? Reflexive something or another? We can argue if this can ever be true; I personally think that only nominally can it be true, and beyond signifier, it loses all meaning, but in this case, if one climbs a 5.13 (your mythic number) then by definition, that person now can climb 5.13! I don't know what sort of nonsense you are talking about above. Of course it doesn't mean they cn climb all 5.13's at that point in time (or ever), but they can climb "5.13" since they just did! Silly Mr. Rehearsal!

i'm sorry, where did Choada_Boy go??? I would respond to you but I am trying to ingore you.....

I have a couple times. I love hearing about other father stories and pictures of cute babies.

I dont know Ru.....now we can unleash the insults. You know Rain was holding back with the wise crack picture responses that are so entertaining.

Lets just say I work in the insurance world. You know....I gotta ya covered.

Nice.....he already commented to it on another thread.

We finally agree on something.

I never meant to make fun of your profession. Being Indiana Jones is cool as shit. Do you carry a whip?

Or did you pull out your "brass balls" and send onsight? Is this one of those activities that you have no right to comment on because you haven't done it yourself? No....this is NOT one of those activities! Oh, so you free soloed Brass Balls? That's neat, maybe we CAN have this conversation. What ever dude......its a simple question and by the tone of your writing I believe I know the answer.....
