  1. why? from all I've gather none of the people caught yet participated in online circle jerks. Asking people here what should be done about reaching people in the following communities (hikers/snowshoers, snowmobilers, bc snowboarders) is like the priest asking the choir how to convert people - you are talking to the wrong people
  2. they already do
  3. Maybe you can't and they die. You can't summarize avalanche procedures onto a flier - sorry America - it takes time and effort.
  4. It was obscured by the fat fucks in your building :moon:
  5. you are the worlds only see through turd
  6. I stood outside your office and starred longingly into the windows trying to find you today
  7. I've got one - get the fuck out of a cubicle.
  8. http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/info/chamonix/chamonix-info.html information is slightly old (i.e. the Belvedere is now closed). Shouldn't be a problem finding English speakers. Would be harder to find french speakers. buy guidebooks in Chamonix no free camping. Compared to other places in the alps fewer budget options. Look on other message boards (or on the message board at internet cafe in the main square) for a room let - have seen them for 300-400 euro a month. Geneva + 20 euro transfer bus. Free wifi at McDonalds. Fat drunk brits have invaded and driven up prices.
  9. Long term a FF lens is probably a better investment I've ended up preferring wider 12-24f4 or longer 80-200f2.8 for skiing over the 17-50 on a 1.5x crop camera (I have a D70). I do like the 17-50 range for walking around travel photography. Part of the reason I sold the 18-70 was I had lots of problems with dust getting sucked inside the lens travelling in the 3rd world.
  10. I sold the Nikon 18-70f3.5-f4.6 and bought the Tamron 17-50. Optically the Tamron is better (but neither are bad), and build quality is better and it just feels more "solid". The constant aperture is nice as well. If you'd like to borrow it send me a pm. I wouldn't spend the money for the 17-55f2.8DX unless one is making a living. I'm tempted to sell the 17-50f2.8 and buy the Nikon 18-200 for skiing/travelling lens. Dragging along the 12-24, 18-70 and 80-200 was a pain.
  11. Please explain the role of random chance in wealth generation. Many wealthy, including Bill Gates, acknowledge it's role in their wealth. Nobody is saying Bill G was lazy.... just that Bill G didn't necessarily work 40,000 times harder than the millionaire. Or for that matter 40,000 time smarter than the millionaire.
  12. lack of freedom also begets inequality. deal with it?
  13. how about a fat fuck who milked the capitalist system he spits on to make his fortune so he can sit at home "doing whatever the fuck he wants" - sipping martinis, climbing, and skiing, living like a king, and brags about it? how's that for income inequality, tittie boy? still bitter? I'll make sure the Maybach driver pelts you with cold rain on your bike ride home tonight. Or if it helps I'll remind you the free marketers creedo "if you are wealthier you are obviously smarter and just down right better - poor people suck"
  14. Ummm, Walmart CEO got nothing on Steven Schwarzman. And for income inequality, try one Mukesh Amabani's new pied a tierre. I wonder if its high enough to escape the stink of dead bodies in the Mumbai slums?
  15. 17+5i
  16. I think it may have been vigorous.
  17. you are just a voyeuristic perv waiting for them to make love fervently
  18. Hugh Conway

    amazing...

    what you got against hippy poontang willis?
  19. Silly me, I thought we one it because we didn't annihilate each other. Well that and our leader wasn't deposed because of losing it.
  20. You can teach 'em to type, you can't teach 'em to grow tits.
  21. I can't, I'm kosher.
  22. If you would care to pick up a book on twentieth century history .... you would realize forced labor, starvation and execution was a Nazi methodism. oh, never mind.
  23. I'm more familiar with the back view and "Exit Only" tattoo
  24. and now a quote from Lily Langtree: prince: "I've spent enough money on you to buy a battleship" Lily: "you've spent enough in me to float a battleship"
  25. As such all communist references by the tighty-whitey-righty bunch are declared null and void.
