    To the fathers......

    for good times. Of course if you give a kid everything they want, and never say the word no, they won't throw any tantrums. Duh. My little girl is the sweetest thing ever if she gets exactly what she wants, when she wants it. I hope you guys have lots of money! Because he's going to start asking for lots of things, and if you can't say no, you better be willing to shell out! Good luck with that, though.
  2. I'm my own hero. Let's face it, is anything more self-aggrandizing than climbing? At least I'm honest.

    To the fathers......

    My daughter is in that same class. She's 5. Her mother was way too coddling, fulfilling every need, etc. Now, it's a nightmare. But, I'm in charge now, so that's been put to a stop. It's been rough, but she's getting the picture. Watch out, Kev, you're setting yourself up!
  4. hey, isn't isha yoga some kind of cult? You're not allowed to tell anyone about the contents of their programs and stuff, right? Am I thinking of the same thing? I hope you're not paying them lots of money.
  5. Good on you for practicing. My friends laugh at me, but I practice at Steven's Pass every year after the slopes close -- every position. The first time, I slipped on Shucksan traversing a semi-steep slope to get to the entrance of the fisher chimneys. I was in self-arrest almost as soon as I realized I had slipped. The runout wouldn't have killed me, but it would have ruined my day. The other time I fell was on an ice slope deproaching from Sherpa. I was tired and my crampon technique was lazy, and I took a bad step, mt right boot glanced off the ice and my feet came out from under me. Self-arrest was impossible (I tried) and I crashed into a bunch of boulders at the base. I've never made that mistake again. I've relied on self-belay FAR more than self-arrest.
  6. Shit, they must be paying a lot more these days than when I was playing out.
  7. I swear to god I've had an acid trip like this
  8. The french at least make good mustard
  9. The hills are NOT alive with the sound of music. However, if you must sing, please limit your musical stylings to bad 70's funk, poorly renditioned 80's pop songs, or lounge classics. Whistling the theme song from Indiana Jones, however, is perfectly acceptable, but only while on rappel.
  10. With the high price of gasoline, it will be more difficult to torch McMansions.

  12. I think his second piece caught him, didn't it? I think the real moral of this story is wear a helmet.
  13. Why did the friend break? Was it placed horizontaly?

  15. You have climbed at Broughtons? Icicle Canyon
  16. Classic Crack, blue camalot
  17. "Practice fall" on a bolt could have caused the same injury.... Very sad.

    Avatar Images

    With the change in Bug's avatar image from the toadstool to the anatomy class penis image, the post above no longer makes any sense. I dunno, the description still seems apt to me....

    KOA harms climbers

    KOA is planning on opening a new pay site next to Mount Rainier National Park. This action will threaten access to all of the wonderful camping opportunities in MRNP! We need to do something about this, or the NPS will close down the mountain!
