Well, yes, but maybe not that much better. I would say this - I can still "hold my own" like younger men.

Well, I'm glad this little known "fact" has finally surfaced. Chiquitas of all ages you may begin lining up at my doorstep...at least the ones of you who haven't been already. Sounds like the NY Times knows who their readers are. They probably also publish ads for ephedra.

...unless you are recruiting for someone like your sister, in which I case I could be interested, as long as she doesn't look anything like you or your chiropractor.

yup, sounds like you are ready for another visit to your chiropractor. must have been more fun than you let on.

the north rib is easy to descend with rappels and downclimbing. I dont think that you would want to descend any other way.

= --> too much total BS in a "Fitness Forum" ?

ephedra is bad for you.

yeah, but I thought it just came back on the market. did solid-gate biners just come back or have they been continually available? (see archenemy, this post was a good idea)

it must be allowed on the market for a reason. (why do I sense an attentive moderator lurking?)

whether it's bad for anyone depends on whether it overall helps or doesn't help the particular individual. it must be on the market for a reason. other than that, this thread is DOOMED.

The Shoestring glacier was once an unknown classic, pre-eruption days. I climbed it once, I am reluctant to admit. Anyone else ?

I once worked in Portland while my main residence was in Bothell which involved 3 1/2 hrs drive each way at least once a week (on Monday mornings & Friday nights plus). This was so suck that after a year I had to argue with my boss that I be layed off which, unbelievably, took awhile to happen. It sort of took the pressure of the job off though and I recommend it, but wait until Spring.

Think: balance bar = maple bar veggie patty = big mac whole wheat = sugar beer = beer It's all in your mind and you're on your way. Unreality is very user-friendly.

I must be slipping. This may be the first thing that I ever put on cc.com that unintentionally ended up making sense.

Seattle Times today

partner found

belay - climbing partner needed. days/times somewhat flexible.

How about: "time for breakfast? where's da next McDonald's exit?" "time for lunch? where's da next McDonald's exit?" "time for dinner? where's da next McDonald's exit?"

but I'm glad I do this on company time.

how about 4 X 300+ = 1200++ and do an extra 200++ calories worth of reps at the gym to bring it down to an even 1000 ? or is that 1200+++ ?

how about 3 X 300+ ?

Mountaineering: Freedom of the Hills, 2nd ed, p. 91 - "Climbers with desirable personal characteristics shall be duly noted and extra credit shall usually be assigned them; however, this ability is generally irrelevant in most climbing situations. In fact, it can be downright distracting !"

you might look at sites like www.rei.com that have equipment comparisons and there must be other sites like that (?). then maybe repost with specific questions if no one feels like trying to tackle all your questions at once (?).

I'm sure that you can find people you like to climb with on this site.
