Hey, I'm all for it. It didn't register with me as recruiting. All I noticed was the hunky guy in the pic who looked like the guard in classic film The Handmaid's Tale.

Too bad they're not hallucinogenic.

My butt doesn't hurt, and I didn't get a PM.

Who says people who climb, or do x, y, or z, can't goof off, kill time at work, discuss politics, and have a good time? Sheesh. Some people need to l-i-g-h-t-e-n UP! Thank the gods y'all aren't all like him.

I can drive to Mailbox Peak really fast.

"stupid Republican" -- isn't that redundant?

Wanna trade?

The young guy must have thought she was a cougar.

I just got back from the grocery store with pesto, fettacini, cashews, and I thought that I would grill a bit of chicken with garlic and lemon juice. I think a butter lettuce and cherry tomato salad, with strawberries and almond slices and a light vinegrette will taste fine with it. I have a bottle of chardonnay on ice and a bottle of Captain Morgans in case I feel like howling later on. 8D

Happy first Pagetop! sickie Now, get started on my dinner.

The gun thread has been shot all to hell. Welcome to the Food Channel.

Y-y-y-yum.

OK, peace, love, and a damn fine meal.

Guns are for pansies. Real men make peace.

You'd think after 2,000 years that Jesus guy would get tired of carrying that thing around and set it down already.

Male or female? Hmmmm? Or ??

Those clazy, clazy beeshes. Don't dey know pot is bad for deir health?

It looks nice, but I need a magnifying glass to read the type Yes. It's way small. Very hard to read. Can we increase the font size a couple of points?

The Mountaineers climbing program centers on teaching. Most people who climb with the Mounties take the courses, then teach and lead climbs to support the courses. Those who don't teach and lead after graduating typically don't continue to climb with the club, i.e., on official club climbs. However, graduates of the courses, whether they continue to help run the program/classes or not, often meet people to climb with--fellow students, climb leaders, mentors. "Unofficial Mountaineers climbs"--climbs in which all the participants are members but the climb isn't registered as a club climb, and so it's actually a private climb--are common. But my sense, being a member since the early 90s, when I joined to take the Basic Climbing Course and work on the fire lookouts, is that very few climbers stay active *in* the club if they choose not to, or tire from, teaching and leading. There's been a couple of generations of climbers and leaders since I took the course, and the only ones that I know of that go on club climbs are the few who still teach and lead climbs to support the courses. It's also hard to get equivalency status (permission to participate in club climbs without going through the courses)--another reason that non-course-related climbing is not a big activity in the club. The club has been looking at keeping and building membership the last few years--maybe they should consider this.

My black lab peed on a little terrier once.

Ask them to send you a copy of your complete insurance policy. Surely it is spelled out somewhere. I like to go to the source whenever possible.

Some days, anything beats CC.com.

Sweet. Are you keeping all four?

Nice legs.

Ohhh, babies!
