  1. I'm getting back in the gym after 2 years away from climbing and am looking for a regular partner that also has access to the UW/IMA indoor wall (could also do some outdoor wall stuff there from time to time). I used to use VW, but since I'm on staff at the UW, and am next to campus 5 days a week, VW makes less sense for me, so looking for somebody else in a similar situation. I'm looking for a pretty serious workout... I have a few extra pounds to burn off after doing nothing but playing ultimate frisbee for the last 2 years. My ideal is 2 or 3 visits a week, with 1.5 hour sessions so that we each get a good number of routes. I'm not a hotshot. I'll probably be doing stuff in the 5.8-5.10c range, but I can belay at all ranges ;-) and I'm a very safe belayer. I don't really care what range you climb as long as you are motivated and are safe on belay. Not really interested in outdoor climbing at the moment, mainly just looking for a good workout and doing a lot of reps on the wall. Hit me up if you are interested : glenn dot pittenger at gmail dot com
  2. Nice vid and editing. I actually liked the iginition sequence in that it was a funny lead into the bike scene. What dig still camera did you use? The vid optics were good for a youtube video.
  3. Looking for a good residential plumber in the N.Seattle area to do some work in the kitchen. I'd try doing it myself, but much of the stuff is tucked way back into these narrow areas that require special plumbers wrenches... Anyway, seems lots of my friends know good electricians, nobody seems to know a good plumber. Anybody?
  4. I think that is legal, at least I'd be willing to find out. Had my car broken into on the Mountain Loop Highway a few years ago. They only got some CDs, I think the car alarm scared them away before they could get more. This crap pisses me off. Somebody should start a trail head taxi service.
  5. I hope he posts a video of his trip on youtube. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2003781771_weblawnchair09.html
  6. Fucking awesome. BTW - Octavius, you need to get a job. You clearly have too much time on your hands. A job? Hell no, I'm experiencing what it is like to be a member of the leisure class... I recommend it to everybody. Besides, it only took a couple of minutes. I'm certain somebody spent much more time on this... S5XNS2VmI7A
  7. Maybe if you dress him up in outdoorsey clothes and teach him how to aid climb...
  8. Tim Roth as Archibald Cunningham in Rob Roy. Classic lines such as: I will tell you something, to take with you. Your wife was far sweeter forced than many are willing. And truth put to it, I think not all of her objected... Or It is years, Your Grace, since I buggered a boy... And in my own defense, I must add, I thought him a girl at the moment of entry.
  9. Speaking of Iommi and Sabath, you guys heard the new Cake cover of War Pigs? xyJMufGx7fo
  10. Word. Cool enough for these homies, cool enough for Fairweather. I'm sure plenty of dorky photos of wedgies can be found too. I used to ride the Burke between my place and work in Redmond (regular bike), and I saw some guys on low profile trikes going hella fast... faster than any wedgie was capable of moving. These guys were not couch potatos. Check out the Windcheetah. I was considering getting one, but decided that 4K could be better used elsewhere. I agree, get more people on bikes, of any kind.
  11. Just remember your safe word, and everything will be ok.
  12. I'm not a huge fan of Bellevue either, too many Dead heads spawned from there. They do have Marmot though, which is about my favorite gear store. Nothing is perfect.
  13. Relaxing at Leavenworth both days, Bebop Rock Sat and Bathtub Dome Sun. No early starts, no long days. Just getting in another handful of trad leads. Led both pitches of New Fixtures, partner did same. Drank beer by the river. Hit Gustavs. Camped. Note to self, need to find a new place in town for dinner, Gustavs is getting old.
  14. I don't think you should cut that tree. It looks like something that somebody might want to rappel off of... Just say'in.
