  1. I wear orthotics due to fallen arches. Superfeet didn't work for me at all. I also tried some thermo-moldable inserts, to no avail. I have several custom pairs for each of my boots. I don't need them in my everyday shoe, just in my hikers/climbers/runners. I still wear keens, so maybe there is hope for you.

  12. You have to name your bus. There's a law. Besides, it helps to have a name to curse while banging your solenoid with a hammer.

  17. that's a V6, right? wow, $14,000 seems like an awful lot for the year and milage! That's a spicy meatball, be careful You should get a mechanic to take a look and give you an opinion, or at least get a compression check on the engine before spending that kind of cash on a car with >200,000 miles on a gasoline engine.

  20. I'm assuming you're talking about placing gear while leading a single pitch, belaying off the ground? Because on a belay off the deck (on a multi-pitch) I would definitely place gear right after leaving the belay, to prevent a FF 2 from bombing my anchor if the route wanders away from the belay or the belay is off to the side because of rockfall or something (i.e. vantage), I like to place an omnidirectional piece right off the deck. This prevents a backwards zipper if I fall higher up. fall factors are much higher at the start of the pitch, I tend to place a lot more gear near the bottom and once I get higher off the deck, I relax more my two cents
  21. nasty

    What was that movie?

    With kevin bacon as some kind of wilderness guide who takes a bunch of kids out on a multi-day, and they end up throwing a mutiny and they hit him on the head with a rock and then have to save him? I can't remeber the name and it's killing me
