The other five will have helmets polypro and beard too, and will most likely be female of one sort or another...

I was taking a crap while in Chelan last week and saw that you had scrawled your moniker on the stall in the bathroom of Campbells Resort, I thought, "Man, thats the shit."

giraffes hear cool too

did you notice their eyes follow you around the room?

It would be helpful to know the sorts of routes you were thinking of soloing. As was taught to me, I would recomment a hardpoint anchor at the bottom of the pitch, advancing a clove hitch up the rope to the next spot you think you can place gear, managing the rope in a bag so as not to have a complete cluster-fuck tangle. The rope soloing I have done has been on aid routes, and has also been some of the hardest work; what with climbing, rapping down cleaning, then jugging. Hard work, but fun in a masochistic way. On remote free routes, though, I would prefer to just flat out solo with the occasional use of a self belay when I felt necessary, with a skinny rope and the same system of advancing a clove hitch. My two cents. Btw, I like the pictures of the volleyball girls' butts. I mean, I really like em, a lot.

you are a dumbass

The Boardman Tasker Omnibus shortly after my first climbing trip

I'm not going to drink the kool-aid

In some areas, overuse of colloquialisms by native speakers is regarded as a sign of substandard ability with the language.

What game is that?

After reading all this, thinking that some folks are just in it for the grins, all I have to say is Greg_W dude, y'are fucked up.

I asked a bonafide chicken expert, yes, you may have saw her in her youth, on JP Patches with the prize chicken on her shoulder...she says it depends on how old the chicken is, and even a little tiny chicken can lay a jumbo egg...she doesn't buy into the ephedra story, and in fact says that ephedra eating birds lay eggs with shells too soft to be marketable, and they're really nervous...

if you need a tool to open a beer, you shouldnt be drinking

Drop over the backside of Mt. Lemmon to Rapell Rock, there are some nice routes there and some of the longest in the area, the Green Slabs are a nice place to get acclimated to the area, short 1/2-pitch sort of stuff, there is a route called Vista Cruiser up near the overlook which is really nice, its been a long time since I was there, lots of cool ccol stuff

Approach him like its not all about you, how does that sound for a mental jump?

Ya, you know, like...being a parent

God forbid you as the parent take any responsibility at all for his behavior! He is growing up to be a jerk? Hmmm...wonder what his folks are like?

Makes me want to whack it on the head like a harp seal

DON'T DRINK THE BLUE KOOL-AIDE!!!!!

a 3/8" inch by 1 1/2-inch lag has a 250lb withdrawl capacity if I remember right, and you dont have to pre-drill like you should with a 1/2-inch lag

The construction detail that you describe with a ceiling joist hanging down into the wall makes no sense from a construction standpoint. You are probably reading the top two plates of the wall, which should hold a truck if properly screwed to. It also doesn't make any sense that you have no studs next to a door opening. Under normal conditions, with no studs next to it and held only by drywall, the door would flop out. Stud finders don't measure the density of a wall, they find screws and nails that attach the sheetrock using a magnetic sensor, whoever built the room was probably lazy and didn't screw it off. Take a finish nail and tap it into the sheetrock at 1-inch intervals to find the studs.

Stay at the Canadian Alpine Club lodge there in Canmore. Inexpensive and chock full o' climbing folks. No cockroaches and a huge kitchen facility so you can cook your own food.

I can harvest my ass-fat? AND sell it? Suhweet!

"Such people tend to have an intensity of focus, and typically don't do so well in social settings." He sounds like a bunch of my climbing buddies...hmmm

I have a picture of a goat eating my shirt near Mt. Constance I would sell
