I guess I wasn't hungry enough when I went to Tim Horton's.

There's an idea - have a Pub Club at Index. Designated drivers will be needed, of course....assuming that Index can handle it.

The rumors about me & sport climbing are all wrong. It was an indiscretion, a fling. I'm strictly trad, always have been. Narrow stance, that's me. A couple weeks ago I even got some small nuts.

Coming to Seattle to hit REI is like traveling to Canada to visit a Tim Horton's.

So in the current situation, who's gay, who's straight, and who's freaky? Is any one of you a sport climber? Those plum and pear trees: what variety?

What we need is legislation to control excess regulation.

Hummasexuals drink Tanqueray Real men drink Bombay Sapphire or Boodles - authentic DRY gins

Create a third group whose tanks are "fortified" with jenkem.

Yes, you missed the USS Ronald Reagan, CVN-76.

Given the interest level, they could make more money selling the draft online than waiting for the hard copy to be printed.

My quick summary: heck of a crowd, the wrong raffle numbers were drawn, interesting & revelatory competitions---people, you need to work on your pullups!---and patient, long-suffering gear reps. A nice display of Cilogear packs, too. And the wrong raffle numbers were drawn, but for a great cause, The NW Avalanche Center.

It slipped my mind this morning that Paul began as Saul the persecutor.

awright, finally let's get some genuine theology rolling here One of the worst problems with the fundies (not you, bug) is their sick over-emphasis on the Pauline letters and Paul's whip-cracking harshness. If the fundies had just a shred of the mercy shown in Matthew, America would not be nearly so riven with vitriol.

Better ask yourself if Jesus likes chicken.

(my post was too bitter & cynical so I changed it to this)

Goddamnit, I just knew some asshat would bring that up!

All I can think about is sex...

The webmatser seems to be particularly obsessed with fungus and with fermentation. Also see lileks.com's Museum of Regrettable Food.

Oh yeah, I can taste that pie.

She's gained some weight since the days she broke on The Scene as a 'feminist slut' but I'd still hit it.

Druids for Zeus.

Scott Babcock used to offer a weekend field seminar through the North Cascades Institute but it is no longer listed. They dropped a lot of their courses when they got the "learning center." The natural history staff at the Marblemount Ranger Station has Tabor's North Cascades rock collection. When you exit the ranger office after getting your climbing permit, look to your right. The back of the building you see is the research staff office and the big carts on the loading dock contain Tabor's collection. http://geomaps.wr.usgs.gov/pacnw/ptabor.html

If you already know something about geology, here are two suggestions: 1. Orr and Orr, Geology of the Pacific Northwest. McGraw-Hill, 1996. 2. Go to the library and look for 'Geological Survey Professional Papers." These include topics that you would see & experience on a climb. Example: the 1st on I grabbed at random from my shelf is "Intrusion and eruption of Late Cenozoic magmas in the Glacier Peak area."

9:00 this morning I was at Harvey Field waiting for the sky to clear so I could do airplane stuff. I was killing time by having breakfast at the airport restaurant. The bartender was late and an irate patron was receiving special handling by waitstaff until the barkeep could show and they could get some drugs down the guy's throat. That's pathetic, 9 on a Sunday morning and you got your back up over alcohol.
