  1. Dad was a Rush fan, too TRIPLE LULZ!
  2. When you got a Japanese and a Mexican Bro in Law, a gay brother, an Rfuck sister, a Christian mom, and a Catholic Sis in Law, you gotta be a bigot just to get a decent seat at the Thanksgiving table! It's eat or be eaten out there, beyotch! I've been lookin' for a black chick so we can collect the whole set! Know any?
  3. Double LULZ! Tip o' the iceberg, my man! Tip o' the iceberg!
  4. Pico Shulz and Illampu are technical climbs. Ancohuma, the highest in the area, is moderate; similar in difficulty to the standards in the Condoriri area. We hired a horse, horse driver, and his kid for the way in, and just a one porter for the way out, but we were in there for 12 days.
  5. Oh, the injustice of it all LULZ!
  6. It's kind of weird to go through several decades of frequent backcountry travel only to discover there's a large, common, and very ostentatious mammal that you never knew existed. My first reaction was "When were these things introduced?".
  7. Hey, it's a ringtail. I'd never heard of them until one ran over my feet in Yosemite last month.
  8. You can squeeze in a climb of Illampu or Ancohuma in a week. 3 days Sorata at 9 to base at 16.5, 1 day high camp, 1 day climb, 1+ days back to Sorata...you'll already be acclimated.
  9. Dood, yer fuckin up my bad advice strategy. Now he's (more) confused n shit.
  10. ...or painfully obvious failure to get laid.
  11. 1) Download iTunes. It will create your artist/album/song directory structure. 2) Download a converter to convert your unsupported file formats to iTunes supported ones. Don't worry about maintaining lossless formats; you're too fucking old to tell the difference anymore. 3) iTunes will organize that shit for you either automatically or in an assisted fashion. I only advise this very quick and relatively obvious solution because i know you'll do the opposite, which will take you days, and that will make the baby Jebus smile.
  12. Illampu, Ancohuma, and Pico Shulz. If you just have time for going into one area, go here.
  13. Boy, the whole tea bagger thing really is dragging the conservative movement down, at least if this site is any indication. Blatant racism is apparently in fashion now. Absolute stupidity is celebrated. We're all very impressed. Fortunately, neither of these conditions are success formulas for getting your political agenda enacted. Nice seeing these fuckers recede in the rear view mirror after the rest of us have left them on the roadside.
  14. The argument that one earns the right to become activist by being pure and perfect is a formula for zero change. Funny, it's the Right's most best love line of reasoning. Wonder why? Much of the reform comes from within the evil industry itself: greater efficiency, safety procedures, clean up procedures. Should the oil industry not institute any reform this because they 'don't have the moral right to'? Yeah...you get the idea.
  15. Wow, it's a bullshit storm in here. Look, the gulf accident highlights the grave risks of offshore drilling. It speaks volumes as to whether or not we should expand offshore drilling. Everybody drives and burns gas, so everybody's part of the problem. Thank you, Captain Obvious. That's not an argument for expanding offshore drilling. Those who aren't complete tools regarding the environment should a) reduce their fossil fuel consumption as much as possible and b) oppose expansion of offshore drilling. The fact that we exhale CO2 does not mean we shouldn't work for cleaner air...what complete fucktard came up with that line of reasoning? It seems like the Right absolutely can't get enough of it. Not hard.
  16. I posted a very cogent argument against the AZ law. Let's hear your attempt at a rebuttal, small fry.
  17. Been there twice. PM me if you need local info about the place.
  18. UM...no, it doesn't, not that anyone here bought that obviously bullshit statistic the first time round. You're only off by a factor of 37 this time, but that's nothing new, eh? Sustainable agriculture would return us to a 2+:1 ratio. linky "Ever since we ran out of arable land, food is oil. Every single calorie we eat is backed by at least a calorie of oil, more like ten. In 1940 the average farm in the United States produced 2.3 calories of food energy for every calorie of fossil energy it used. By 1974 (the last year in which anyone looked closely at this issue), that ratio was 1:1."
  19. look at the one who called for expanding offshore drilling blame the victims of his policies. So little malcontent bitches like you and Prole can keep eating cheap industrial organic and pumping cheap soot-laden diesel into your Volkswagen TDIs. You might try polling the women on this site to find out how much of a turn on (as you've claimed) your SUV is. You attempt to lampoon the kind of personal lifestyle changes that really do have a significant impact on reducing the overall problem to minimize the glaring fact that you're not doing jack shit yourself because you basically don't give a fuck. Yeah, we don't buy it, but I'm sure you get that a lot. It's amazing that you're defending Nitrox's racist photo post. What little respect I had for you is now gone. You're at best a troll, but you're certainly not a guy whose opinion should be taken seriously.
  20. Yeah, we hate it so much we want to secure the borders and encourage legal immigration. Maybe even reduce a little crime in the US caused by Illegal aliens in the process. Gosh, can you believe all the hate? Nah. It's not about wanting immigration reform or any of the other bullshit you're attempting to foist on us here. The 'hispanic cop killer's' photo speaks far louder about who you really are. Nobody else on this site would post anything even remotely like that. Look, if you hate hispanics or whatever, fine. Revel in your ignorance and personality disorder. Don't post that shit here. It doesn't wash. There are over a thousand white supremacy websites that'll cheer you on. Go for it. If I were you, I'd do some damage control pull that photo and issue a general apology to the hispanics here as well as the rest of us for it.
  21. Well, it's all about the response, isn't it. FEMA, the primary organization responsible for federal response to disasters, was gutted and downgraded in importance, and administratively churned when the DHS was formed. It's response was abysmal. That's when the president needs to kick in. Bush went in with too little too late. He did a shitty, shitty job. Yeah, we're all part of the oil problem, OK. Accidents happen, and this one, from an engineering standpoint, is an extremely difficult one to fix. I wouldn't attempt to put too much of a political flavor on it.
  22. Being in favor of immigration reform makes me a racist? Forget it, Off. He's too fucking stupid to get it.
  23. The other implication I love is 'immigrant worker as freeloader'. Yeah...spend a day trying to keep up with a crew of Mexicans and let's see how you do. Good luck, motherfucker! Apparently, our system of immigration, both legal and illegal, generally filters for people who work really, really hard. Just my anecdotal experience, of course.
