  1. In case anyone doesn't feel like clicking on the link let me summarize:

     

    Whoa, climbing is like, hard. And now, with more people, more training and more knowledge, like, the number grades are totally going up. Sort of like skateboarding, Wolfgang Gullich is totally like Tony Hawk, both are gnar. In the future people will climb V20 and 5.16, it'll be rad. But you know what, grades are kinda subjective, like somebody tall might find something easier than somebody who is short, weird huh? But everybody is different and that's cool and we should all like, just go climbing and love it.

     

    :sick:

  2. no disrespect to the females! there are plenty of examples of ugly male leaders.

     

    this guy was rad though:

    Whoa he looks a little intense. Might want to loosen that thing around his neck a bit. I don't think I could even look him in the eye if I was having a conversation, I might get hypnotized.

  3. The great thing about this thread is it has introduced me to that 'epic fail' website, haha that shit's hilarious :D

     

    I can now thank cc.com for showing me that and also 'i can has cheezburger', surely two of the greatest gifts of the internet age.

  4. Visible from space...with a satellite. Meh, call me jaded but if the CIA can read the name on my underpants from space then some giant beaver dam shouldn't be a problem.

  5. I've got all of July off this year as I'm moving towns, I'd like to take some time in there to do some climbing. Also I find it works better for me if I book things way in advance so I can schedule around it.

     

    I'd be interested in linking up Alpha/Serratus in the Tantalus

     

    trooping off into the middle of Garibaldi Park to climb stuff like Davidson, the Sphinx etc.

     

    Maybe Redoubt or Shuksan, out towards Bella Coola in the Niut Range...

     

    I lean towards more stuff like ridges, traverses, lots of 3rd/4th class. Could meet up in Squamish for a weekend before hand as well

  6. What's all this talk about work ethics & shit... I've met lots of successful people who work hard but don't feel the need to bust their ass, both corporate & entrepreneurs. Just because you have a sensible work/life balance doesn't mean you're a slacker. I was more thinking about people who have to tell everyone how indispensable & important they are by the time they put in. It probably just means you're working inefficiently.

  7. I was going to go see it but then checked the running time, 2 hours & 40 minutes!! I'm guessing lots of CGI battle scenes & big explosions yawn :sleep:

  8. I think the Seahawks have been in a "rebuilding period" for all but a couple of years of their existence. They've had some bad luck the past couple of years though.

     

    Cowboys are gonna beat up on Favre & he's gonna throw 4 INTs.
