more proof that drugs are harmless and can be used recreationally. more proof that drug prohibition isn't solving the problem.

I have a feeling I'm taking a turn for the worse. Maybe I should take a few days off.

It is?

Ooh, too bad I already called in sick yesterday (and came in today with a tan!)

What's the story with this climb? Anybody done it? Kramer doesn't have a lot of info, and I can't seem to find any info on the interwebs. I'm assuming it doesn't get done much.

Those of you calling in sick, don't forget the sunscreen.

I call dibs on the Icicle. You can have Tumwater.

Yes, and DEFINITELY stay out of the icicle.

Reminds me of a funny joke: "How many people work in your office?" "Oh, about 50%"

Dude, no offense but that advice is a bunch of crap that will get somebody killed. Plently of people have OD'd on heroin while snorting it. It's bad stuff all around. Also, I would never recommend anybody use it "recreationally." Sure, maybe some people are able to use it for a week or two and then drop it without another thought, but for most people, the potential for serious long-term addiction is very real and quite debilitating. Why play with fire? Or why tell people that heroin is fine, just do it in moderation? Pretty poor advice, in my opinion. Which is weird cause you seem like a cool guy. Just my $.02 and all. I think all that shit should be legal anyway, so knock yourself out, it's no skin off my back. Have you ever gone through a heroin withdrawl or seen one?

I'm sorry, but heroin really has to be injected to fully appreciate it.

I quit my job once for two years and had a great time. Spent lots of time in the backcountry and lived in Australia for a while. Spent all my money. Came right back two years later to a better job with higher pay. Go figure.

Telling people you're ignoring them is aid

I just wanted to post in this thread to increase my post count. Thanks!

Is this because of the rock issues, or because the bolt was placed incorrectly?

Which is worse, in your opinion: A fatal fall of 1000 feet A fatal fall of 2000 feet A fatal fall of 3000 feet

There's a short 9 over by narrow arrow called Quarry Crack or something. Short, kinda wide. I had fun on it.

I'm interested in climbing at Arapiles. Anybody been there? What's the ideal season? I'm thinking Dec. but I've been in Australia in Dec and I remember it was quite warm. Any good guide book recommendations? Info on crowds? TIA!

My parents never beat me. They didn't have to; my older brother pretty much had that covered.

climate change deniers crack me up. Climate change? Nothing to see here, folks. Move it along.

Nice work guys. OMG! Is that a nalgene clipped to his harness??!!

Now, onto IB!
