Thank you for your wonderful contribution. To quote yourself: Doesn't look like you're helping much...and where do you fit in here? Now when you're done polishing your quick-draws and scrubbing the goo off your crash-pad, you'd better get going: your carpool to Exit 38 is waiting and your li'l buddies are getting impatient.

With so many bolts to chop, he must not have much time for spray. Sit down, little men.

Here's some real art for you....and you can use them over and over again, without making holes in the rock: Projects? Too bad. If it's on public property, first come first serve. That's the chance you take.

Not my first choice for a movie role, but I found the comments of one of the responders on the link you posted quite sensible: "So has anyone here seen American History X? Or Schindler's List? Both fine films, both featuring characters that are clearly anti-semitic, and in the case of American History X, one of those characters is played by Edward Norton, one of the finest actors in the last 50 years. Is he, (or the film) racist or anti-semitic for portraying those themes in a film? Of course not, because we are talking about art, and art is not always pretty. Not every movie can be the Sound Of Music. Sometimes you need an Apocalypse Now." Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes are both stellar actors yet played Nazis in Schindler's List. They are anti-semites as a result? Gary Busey is an actor, and a brain-damaged one at that, but incredibly articulate and insightful at times, perhaps as a result. By the way....you probably rolled on the floor laughing as you enjoyed watching Hogan's Heroes probably growing up about the same time I did....Here's some enlightenment courtesy of Wikipedia: "Some of the actors, including Werner Klemperer (Klink), John Banner (Schultz), Robert Clary (LeBeau), and Leon Askin (Burkhalter), were Jews who had fled the Nazis during World War II." Get it???? They're actors!

Busey don't bolt.

"Hey Buds", you ask? How can you just sit there when we bombed Saddam's own BABY MILK FACTORY!!! Can't you read the sign? It says so right there!

Another photo of the two baked prom-dates, this time getting on the bus with their lovely (embarrassed) dates: And posin' 4 y'all!

Open the door...to your.... Mystery Prom Date! Surprise! A pair of Oompa-Loompas. (And they think they look good to you.)

And we can't wait to meet you in person to finally see the li'l man with the BIG mouth.

Great video....but the "soundtrack" made me want to jump out a window. Yo, yo....homeys! How about remixing it to something the whole family could enjoy without requiring a bleep every 5 seconds and an urban dictionary. Glad you survived the ordeal.

I believe he was mentioned once already (by myself) but has anyone yet mentioned BIG LOU? King 'o Mt. Rainier? Here he is with one of his royal buddies:

These FISH ones are cool ("The Double Whammy"), if you can find one: Fish Big Wall Gear As the promotional literature says: "The main bed features offset "Dual Dorsal" fins...guaranteed to keep your fruity buddies off ya." Ain't that right, pope?

You want go snorkling? Get your stuff from Snorkel Bob. He fix you up good! (At least 4 locations on Maui.) Snorkel Bob

Is that Goldline in the picture? No, it isn't. It's Raindawg on a muddy rope with a yellow and black sheath.

Nice guy, but brought American climbing into a Dark Age in which it still wallows. Climbing was going through a clean/green revolution further enhanced by new technology (including cams) and a ground-up ethic still prevailed. Here comes rap-bolting Watts to Smith Rocks (and I was around there before, during and afterwards), bringing seductive, cheap and dirty Euro-tactics which continue to pollute climbing over 20 years later. I wonder if he had any idea how it would turn out....

Raindawg's been to Maui for the purpose of climbing. He went to climb this: It's called the Iao Needle and it was VERY dangerous. The rock was horrible, the protection practically non-existent and the weather ever changing. On the other hand, it sure is pretty up there! Raindawg rappin' off the Needle into the jungle of the Iao Valley. Better to go snorkeling, ride a mountain bike down Haleakala Crater after viewing the sunrise, or take the spooky two-lane cliff-hugging road to Hana and swim in the pools and waterfalls. There are some "climbing" or bouldering areas on some of the other islands (particularly Oahu) but don't expect high quality rock on the remnants of aging volcanoes or on the freshly made crags (ala "The Big Island") either. Loads of other kinds of first-class adventure, though, can be found nearly everywhere. I "soloed" a nice route up the prow of Diamond Head near Waikiki on Oahu once (the skyline ridge on the right) but the upper section was pretty rotten and fairly terrifying. You walk off via old military observation bunkers and then down stairs into the crater.

Clip 'n Go!!! Exit 38, anyone? I'll bring the 'draws!!! Luv'ya! C-U at the Gym!

Dwayner 'n pope. followed by: Gaston Rebuffat- poet of the mountain spirit and role-model guide. Walter Bonatti - pushing the limits. Sir Edmund Hillary - a genuine explorer and humanitarian. Rheinhold Messner - going where no man had gone before. (By the way, his concept of "murdering the impossible" includes his attitude about bolting.) BIG LOU - Rainier Royalty Sorry, ain't got no sport-clippin', rap-boltin', flavors of the week on my list.

From the Index Town Walls, I've seen MASSIVE avalanches come off the North Side of Mt. Index, especially down the chute between the North and Middle Peaks. It looked like Niagra Falls. Also, I've seen giants come off of Eagle Peak in Mt. Rainier National Park across the road from Cougar Rock Campground (near where you do the log crossing of the Nisqually. The blast can knock your hat off.

Big deal! I bet she can't simultaneously scream, lift-weights AND pee her pants like this sports-babe: PbRh2DzOt8M

What the hell's the matter with you, dude????

Grow up dude...don't they teach you all that in High School? Why do you even ask these questions??? Are you trying to narrow or expand your list of choices? Pot will likely make you lazy and unambitious (and I don't care about the exceptions like Carl Sagan). You seem to be on the internet all day... Heroin, Crack and Cocaine are for junkies. They, along with pot, are all still illegal whether you like it or not so when you buy it or sell it, you're part of the web-of-death involved in its production and distribution. Nicotine will give you cancer. Alcohol is legal and relatively harmless in small doses. If you abuse it and it turns you into an idiot, stay away. Caffeine? Unless you got certain health issues, it's relatively harmless in small doses. Didn't you learn all that in high school????? You're a father now. Stay away from all the illegal ones and don't abuse the one's that aren't.
