  1. The next Pub Club? Wouldn't that be like wearing a band T-shirt to their own concert? Wear it tonight at Feathered Friends for the Lowell Skoog show.
  2. That Chuck Norris endorsement goes pretty far...
  3. Ok, I have a simmilar deal as spider girl, pulled finger tendon while pulling on plastic. Does the "don't climb on an injury" thing apply to weight lifting as well?
  4. This is going to resurect a "spray sucks this week" thread
  5. I go to the mountains to break away from compulsivly lurking on Cascadeclimbers.com
  6. Getting back to the topic on hand. Does Washington count for anything today? Being unfamiliar with this process, do I have to attend a caucus tonight or just drop off my absentee ballot?
  7. the x350a is supposed to be "x" for mixed, 350 grams and "a" for adjustable. In reading a blog on this harness, my attention was caught by this other model for mixed climbing with ice clipper slots. This model is not out yet. I am just curious to see what all the hype is about so it's worth walking a block over from Vivace.
  8. Mountain Gear has this model up for $150, but don't expect to ship until 2/22

    Facebook Sucks

    What does Hilary have to do with facebook? If any politian is in favor of us putting personal information online, it's one who supports wire tapping and tracking down "terrorists".
  10. I heard they are redesigning the blizzard for next season. They have been hard to find lately.
  11. I was expecting to see commuter footage from Monday's snow.

    With Edwards dropping out, I am speculating that Hilary and Obama will try to get him as their running mate.
  14. Pod climber has a free podcast by Eric Horst (author of how to Climb 5.12) where he discusses common injuries such as Climber's elbow, A2 Pulley finger injury and ACL tears.

    Right, I forgot that it is a given considering the results of our last election. Kerry rhymes with Fairy and we all love Bush.

    and you know there are ignorant voters out there who will factor that into their decision.
  17. They seemed to have disappeared quickly. They were founded in Jan-04 and don't pop up on any web search. This was the best lead I could find. http://www.zoominfo.com/Search/PersonDetail.aspx?PersonID=63988006 Maybe they were bought out / sold out to a larger company and completely integrated.
  18. Feathered Friends carries Kayland Super Ice and might be able to order the M11+
  19. Try this angle, http://www.rockandice.com/kayland.php
  20. "Most impressive"- Colin was slated to speak at the AAC dinner a couple weeks ago, but stayed down there for another attempt, I am glad it worked out (understatement). I think he is on the hook to give a show for us in April.
  21. http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/31212934/c/147.html Looks like they cover your shipping both ways if the size doesn't work. I have never used Zappos, but they might be your only bet.
  22. Was up there last weekend also. Thanks 5.12dreamer for the heads up on BoeAlps, saw you guys head to Rambles left on 1/19. Congrads Terry on Rambles Centre. We saw 2-3 teams there and went over to Rambles right. As we roped up for the First Step WI2, a couple Vancover locals soloed it, beating up to the cirque, no worries though. There was plenty to keep us busy so I hope you guys got over there. I was 3/4 up the dihedral pitch when the pin that held my crampons together popped off. The strap kept them from dropping. I down climbed 10 ft to my last screw and set an anchor for my partner to finish. Managed to get into town before the hardware store closed and bought the necessary bolt to replace it. Day 2 (1/20), we were the first to Icy BC. Best route i did on the trip. The 3rd tier looked deceptivly easy on the central column. Upon closer examination, we saw a bail screw on THIN ice, below a chandeliered portion. After rapping the second tier, we saw the locals who left the screw from the other day, just finish a joint after the first tier. If it calms you down, I guess, tougher guys than me. Day 3, honeyman falls was affected by the warmer temps and needed this cold weather. It was still flowing on the left. We got a pitch up the same time as a Portland couple. The pro was hard to find (thank you grivel 360). At one point I pulled a 16 cm screw while testing it. Found a good patch and set up an anchor for my partner to take over. He wasn't feeling the funk and neither was the Portland party so we called it good in anticipation of the drive home. Thanks to the bad ass Portland chick who cleaned my anchor and rapped off a pillar.
  23. Prior to Bush's tax break, the highest rate was 38.6% now it is 35%
