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!

Of course, studies indicate that there is no link.... I don't see why people are freaked out about the autism link -- thimerisol has basically been removed from current vaccines intended for young children, anyway. Moot. I guess it's understandable, though. People want something to blame.

I know where yr mom is

man, I wish I could join you. I can't get a babysitter. It's killing me....

Mix myself a bupropion & lorazepam cocktail and stare out the window wishing I was doing any of the above.

not that there's anything wrong with that.

hey, great! thanks

Graham rocks. Even if I didn't like his packs, I would still buy from the guy. His customer service rocks. That said, I'm on my second cilogear pack (V3 60L) and I FUCKING LOVE IT.

No. Just curious.

cool, thanks for the pointers guys. I tried searching for a similar thread, but I couldn't find it. But, I never can find anything with the search engine on cc.com anyway, except for some thread about the nodder.

So...what's involved in removing bolts, anyway? My knowledge of bolts is very limited.... Assuming we're dealing with expansion bolts, can you just take it out the same way it went in? Or, do you have to pry it out with a crowbar? Is there a sleeve you have to get out? What about glue-ins? Do you have to saw them off? How does one fill the hole? Simple epoxy and a little dirt to hide it? What if the bolt shears while trying to remove it? Saw off the end? Dumb questions? I'm not into sport climbing, so I never really learned anything about bolts, or how to remove them. TIA!

Saw it from the road a week ago or so, it looked pretty drippy.

Clearly these men were resisting

Oregon TRs -- Hood, or Smith. WOW, such variance.

sick. How many cops does it take to detain 3 men? It will be interesting to see what the fallout is from this. BTW, were they black men? I didn't see that in the article. I wonder what the back story is?
