  1. I've had a very good experience with Qwest, both in Seattle and in Bellevue. I've used them for five years, a fair bit of that time running my own servers with static IPs I got from them. The only times I have been down has been when I've been without power due to a windstorm. Otherwise I don't believe there have been any interruptions in service. Their best package is currently 3Mbps down/768Kbps up, which isn't too bad and I actually get pretty close to that. There is an annual contract, but if you move to an area where Qwest does not provide service then you're to go with someone else. Of course you'll probably get a lot of hits if you search for Qwest sucks, but there ya go, that's my two cents. I used Speakeasy when I lived in California, and was also very happy with them. Very clueful.

  3. When you add them to your cart it actually says the price for each screw is $42.98 Called them and they said that I should call 20 minutes after placing the order and they will fix the price... we'll see.
  4. Do you hold your hands in your pockets when you do that? So that you can feel cocky all day?

  6. Any opinions on the CAMP Radion screws? They seem awful pricey at $75. Worth it for the fancy hanger?
  7. If you wind up doing something Wednesday night I'd love to grab a beer with you, probably latish.

  9. The Garmin Legend/Vista HCx models have a very good chipset that seems to do relatively well under our dense foliage. You should be able to find the Legend HCx for a little over $200 and the Vista HCX for about $250...
  10. Anyone else from the Seattle area heading out to Bozeman for the Ice Festival? I can't leave any earlier than the 4th in the afternoon/evening, and need to be back by the evening of the 9th. Happy to drive or ride with someone else. Game? PM me.
  11. The swell's big enough for Laird, but isnt the hair a bit dark? Not Laird... some fellow named Kerby Brown
  12. Speculation as to the reason why...
  13. Excellent
  14. There are several options. They have largely been discussed to death on this site. I'd refer you to this thread for starters: question for climbers There's plenty of vitriol, but there is a lot of good information there as well.
  15. You know, he did spell that out in the subject of his post...
  16. I'd be leaving from Bellevue.

    There's two kinds of divers... those that pee in their wet suits and those that lie about not doing it.
  18. He made it possible for us to elect a black man to the presidency. Had Bush been less of a polarizing figure, less of a disaster, I'm not sure that Obama's message of change and hope would have resonated so strongly. The one thing that wasn't mentioned yet that he deserves credit for is making an honest, legitimate attempt at trying to solve the illegal immigration issue. He didn't make much headway... Didn't get anywhere, but it wasn't for his lack of trying. in the bush
  19. Sounds like you're doing research for a term paper
  20. Ummm, that's not stool:
  21. Sounds like more fun than the medical imaging exam I was working on at the time...
  22. And then what? You jizzed in your beer and drank your "Hefeweizen"?
  23. Wow, OK, enough of the circle jerk, Jesus... I'm glad the guy won, but prognostications that Obama will be up there with the sacred trinity of Washington, FDR and Lincoln are just a tad premature. There's still plenty of time for him and his administration to fuck it up big, quite possibly for reasons outside of his control.
  24. Great TR and photos. I especially enjoyed this little gem of imagery.
  25. It's over a month away... start calling people! What day(s) are you guys looking to leave? I know 2 people headed over Wed the 3rd after work. Woohoo, found someone for the dogs. I can't leave until the evening of the 4th, however.
