  1. thats because cows have bacteria in their gut that can break cellulose down. which we do not have. A interesting experiment would be to clean out the lower GI tract of a human with antibiotics, get a stool sample from a cow, create a slurry of cowshit, and insert it into the colon. If it repopulated enough and somehow didn't kill the person when a virulent strain of e coli popped up that person could theoretically process cardboard. Or we could just stop putting cardboard in our foods.
  2. and what's wrong with cardboard? well, number one, it's cardboard. there isn't any nutritional value in it. It just passes right through you and isn't digested in the slightest. If you were a fungus you might be able to chew it up a bit, but then you would be a fungus.
  3. good for her. A diet high in lysine and omega-3's would have made her even more "ripped". "wonder foods" like this are usually full of hot air. Try it, but I wouldn't put all my faith in just eating these mystery noodles.
  4. probably made of celluose/cardboard. won't make you fat, but also will give you zero nutrition. tried to find info on "Glucomannan" but it's all rave reviews from supplement websites, as in they can write anything they want to. I'm taking a biotech class and we've been working on making gluten free bread that isn't just straight celluose and actually has some nutrition. I'll ask my prof about trying to do the same thing with noodles. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go eat some deep fried shitty college food. nom nom nom.

  6. and no marital plans in the near future. Maybe I can pick up a girlfriend if I get in that kinda mood. I'd rather be with a woman than a bunch of dudes with paddles, or fat strippers.
  7. Ivan, could you use the term "getting fratty"? Thats actually kinda fun to do every once and a while. Get a 5th of something halfway decent and hit on girls in the douchiest way possible with "some bro's!", all the while swinging the 5th around so people know how hard you party and cool you are. Key words here are once in a while. don't know if thats how your frat(ernity) was, but that's the stereotype.
  8. thanks guys. My wrist has seemingly healed up in the last week. climbed hard all weekend and never a peep out of it. Don't know what it was but I guess it fixed itself. sprinkler is still going strong.
  9. annnnnd that is why I have serious misgivings about frats. Who the fuck hangs out with a group of people who spanks you in the ass with a paddle? a kid I know on the lax team had to go to the strip club and get slapped repeatedly in the stomach by fat strippers for his hazing. If someone told me that I had to do that to hang out with them I would tell them to go fuck themselves and avoid them every time we shared the same general area. what is it with people?
  10. This article, while good, is not the law. ultimately it comes down to what you are comfortable with. If just turning the old slings isn't good enough for you, replace them and rap off that. Simple. BTW I almost think there should be a bolted descent off prussik, there is more tat on those raps than anywhere I've been and a handful of 2 bolt rappel anchors would be much less impact.
  11. wow, lame. I can see shooting TVs in a gravel pit somewhere that is already a toxic waste dump, but this is something else. See any signs of a couchburning? yeeee haaaw!
  12. I know most people here are from the pac NW, but has anyone taken avy courses both in the rockies and the cascades? I feel like the cascades are usually fairly easy to tell when the avy danger is really high, like it snows 4 feet of heavy wet snow, things are going to be sliding. Out here the snow is very light, and it can snow a foot or so with minimal avalanche danger. Are the classes different based on the different kinds of snow? If you go somewhere new would it be worth it to retake a class to familiarize yourself with the snow conditions that are more likely to be encountered?
  13. dragontail is not in MRNP, might want to fix that. You'll probably have to hike/ski in the road. extra 4 miles I believe.
  14. I'm tall, caucasian, have no piercings, and rock the skinhead buzzcut year round! Maybe I should try and get a guiding job.
  15. thanks for all the info though! I'm stoked that I won't have to borrow other peoples shit next year and for a couple weekends this year. The main fork of hyalite is a zoo weekends, although I'm glad no one came up to cleos yesterday, my flailing on the 2nd pitch would have been embarrassing with a peanut gallery below.
  16. bought reg sized 404's, if they don't fit (measured the soles of my boots and they are exactly 13 3/8ths long) I have a buddy out here in MT who needs a size reg and he has a large he'll trade me for. Not too worried about breaking them, not gong to be doing much downhill, just flat snowed in road approaches. I suck at skiing (used to ski way back in the day but stupidly started snowboarding because it's "cooler", 10 year old dumbass...) and I really suck with mountaineering boots. Might try the strap coming off the front of the ski. Like I said, I have baturas, and am not going to buy a new pair of boots. They don't even make spantiks in my size, and the baturas are so much better than the old heavy plastics I used to use. my foot size limits me on the used market. BTW I've been trying to sell a pair of garmont boots for the last 2 years in size 49, posted them many times on both this and other websites. If anyone wants them I'm selling them super cheap, figure it's worth another try here. message me for more info.
  17. shoulda googled it first. sounds like silveretta 404s or 500s. I'll keep an eye open on ebay, alternatively I'll ask here. anyone have a set of these not in use?
  18. I've got a pair of old tele skis and skins that I want to be able to use to approach ice in. I have size 48 (huge) baturas. Someone point me in the right direction as to what I should be looking at. Don't really care about downhill performance just something that'll allow me to get up to flanders/east fork quickly after mid december. slowshoeing takes forever.
  19. feck of course you're right, it was with a hint of sarcasm that I wrote that. After moving to MT my political leanings have shifted to the right. Like for example I don't have that big of a problem with the wolf hunts, and I think that gun control laws don't need any more restrictions. As for this crop of republican candidates... I'm starting to worry about the GOP, that's seriously the best they could come up with?
  20. I feel the same way about Obama. Yeah but you're just the token repub on this site, no one really cares what you have to say in terms of politics, yer just wrong. greeners are the exact opposite of what paul stands for, but they need someone to latch on to who isn't obama. I'm not really that excited for his second term. I wish there was a viable republican candidate who wasn't bat shit insane, I'd love to vote for someone new, but obama is the lesser of two evils.
  21. so sad that a sportcrag could have been damaged. maybe wait a little longer before worrying about such trivial things as screaming your way up clip ups when compared to human lives?
  22. awww fuckit they never will, I'm just going to go climbing. if ron somehow gets elected I'm moving to canada. jesus, it is depressing to listen to all the greeners falling under his spell. idiotic.
  23. aaron is spitting the truth, now if everyone could see the light...
  24. I have yet to set the sex swing up in my room, but if it'll make me a legend I might have to put it up. A LEGEND
  25. I know that sprinkler pullups are idiotic, but I myself am an idiot. don't know about the wrist. looking for info on that.
