Bronco, The brutal reality of this place is hard to adapt to. There's like...comfort...and warmth everywhere! I can lay around and do nothing mainly because there is nothing to do. The sun shines...no ice...no snow...everyone appears sober and cleancut...nobody can relate to the need to be on first chair...they wear suits and shit. No one seems to know or care who Gordy Peifer is...They all think Dale Earnhardt is the bomb...CNN execs reign supreme here...I never have to go into four wheel drive... there are more restaraunts within a mile of me now then there were within 50 miles of me previously....it never rains..."Jingus" does not exist in any venacular used here...high altitude is a word these people read in a book once...Lord help me.... It IS truly hell here bro. Clive Barker should write about this place. I haven't actually left this house for 3 days. All this flatness has me kind of gripped. I'm like a 5.2 flatlander....which ironically coincides with my climbing skills.... I'm planning my escape now! 1.35 seems kind of low for such a divine avatar as foofoo...dollar fiDDy and she's yours!

Alex! Damn good point! I wanna be "Groundfall Potential"

Phew! Man am I ever glad I slept in on this one before replying. You know I get myself all wound up sometimes for nothing! I need to go to Pope's confessional...chat room spray should remain inviolate. Peace! ~Mike

We need fewer attorneys in this country and more avalanche forecasters! [ 01-10-2002: Message edited by: mikeadam ]

Mine is kill -9 -1 but only when I'm hacking and I don't mean Hackin' in the Erik Snyder sense either! Ghostbusters was on TV today bro.

Yes that has been skied several times including last spring. Pretty soon the Cascades will be like the alps. Your henious climb is merely someones early morning descent.

And you got to pay for it. Good job!

Ok, Ok, I see I will have to divulge another chapter in the long and sordid history of spray. Gather round....A short history of spray PT2.... ************************************************ The first place I ever saw the word 'avatar' was the old old (like 1998 which in internet terms was like the stoneage practically )South Park website. You could log on then choose a South Park character (avatar) to travel through all the various rooms and lands of the world of South Park. You collected things as you went through the site such as you could steal someones bong off their couch as long as you had a tote bag to carry it. Ya know, the important stuff that any self respecting societal drop out would cherish. I forget all the exact particulars, but it was pretty zen like to travel through the South Park cactus desert and find some prop of an avatar sitting on a dungy couch complete wid [YO-YO] skull tiki lamps for mood lighting. Then you could sit down and rap with the dood. Little cartoon bubbles would come out of your characters mouth with the words you typed. It was pretty dope. I imagined it was a bit like Mike Myers shooting the breeze with Jim Morrison. The coolest things were these 'avatars' that looked like hot japanimation chicks and a snowboard terrain park (WORD!) to cruise in. By the way Smoky Mcpot was on loan and delusional for the "snowboarding rules" post. You know who you are who posted that! We all know the tip grab and Glen Plake rule over all that snowrider nonsense! So here is the beta on the whole avatar thing as it came to me in a flash of inspired spray tap- tap-tapping away on the keyboard one day. Hence Whillans was born and Caveman became the immediate prodigy. SPRAY ON BROTHERS $ SISTERS, but remember to talk about climbing every once and a great while and practice your ebonics using the dialecticizer www.shortbus.net : http://members.rotfl.com/spavatars/ I am not sure where that old site is, but you can download the avatars and use them on any EVIL EMPIRE (MS) chat server. UNIX RULES! Ok, ok....I'm getting old and tired and gotta move on to bigger and better things, but please buy my avatars and peace to the cc.com valley. Going climbing at the Tennessee wall today and then off to go skiing in North Carolina after that. So there, I talked about climbing AND skiing. Pope, keep your pecker hard (not around me though please) and you powder dry (after all it needs to get in your nose somehow)! Dwayner, Can't think of anything profound to say. Oh yeah...DRINK BEER! Smoky! "If in life you don't succeed be like me and smoke some weed". Good luck destroying the exit 38 bandit. Death to Osama Bin Laden! Mike [ 01-08-2002: Message edited by: mikeadam ]

No sillyvillian can teach a good ex-soldier how to drink and puke...make me laugh....unless rat is an Aussie then that might be a different story...

Sorry can't help you out on that one. Just trying to offload the ones I got.

Borbon, they are yours. I'll email you the passwords. Adamson

We skied/boarded it the next day and thought it sucked. Groomers and lift rides rule. Stick to Alpental chair 1 & don't waste your time in the backcountry...

Hmmm...Bubu-Twight versus unknown...unhearalded Canadian, American, Slovenian, Japanese,Gypsy climbing bums living in their trucks freezing all winter and totally against self promotion.

I've been floundering around that area for a few days including a tour at 4am this morning. All the new snow is formless and very deep. Doesn't matter if you are skis or snowshoes. It's deep enough that unless the pitch of the slopes are pretty steep you can't even ski down something less than 25 degrees. It took me an hour and a half to cover 1200 ft of vertical. Chair Peak will not be in shape for awhile unless you like swimming through bottomless vertical oatmeal. Mike

Quit spraying on my topic poozer!

Certainly NOT the best post ever made Jens. That honor goes to ZDFG. The main reason spray lives!

Sexual Chocolate-So you've found some alternatives to violence in your life have you? Well ain't that sweet! Just make sure you bend down and kiss Mountain Rangers feet for his current service so that you can lean smugly back from your computer and proclaim yourself a pacifist. When Osama comes looking for you, Mountain Ranger and the others will have to be sure to step aside so you and OBL can have a dialog on how peace, pot, and microdot are going to alter the course of our countries collective realities. It is his and others service that have ENTITLED you to your bubble of complacent pacificism. But hey, it's your right because of the freedom umbrella they are providing you. It's your Consciounsce you have to live with. Hairy one. Many of the people you see posting on this thread are veterans of more recent combat experiences from Panama to Desert Storm/Shield to Somalia and others. Did you forget that right down the road is an SF group, a Ranger Battalion and several contingents of active duty infantry regiments? Quite a few persons get out and hang around the neighborhood. Much like your Vietnam era friends. I can't imagine that your friends were any less gung ho when they were 19. Because someone has a youthful and ignorant idea of what fighting in combat is all about and then goes and see firsthand, does the fact that someone 30 years ago faced the same trevails invalidate the younger generations own committment? Let sleeping dogs lie. There was not one person I served with that did not regularly make mention of the fact they were there because they felt some kind of debt to the men and women who served previously and wanted to earn Freedom on their own terms whether that was as an airman, a sailor or a grunt. We take nothing from the Vietnam era veterans and offer only our own meager contributions to the country. Warriors come in many shapes, sizes, and temperments.
