Erik! You are getting it on with your warm sexually inviting bed???? What does your girl think about that? Maybe you should get with Timmy and hump some trees. Seriously, will climb with anyone/anytime for beer and Scooby Snacks... Mike

Hey Bryan Rybolt that was a good topic you introduced into this thread. You should make another one and let it be debated. Mike

Pope, Ihr Gesicht riecht wie Fisch, weil Donna Oberstes Seil darauf gesessen hat.... Hängen Sie zehn in Östlichem Berlin

It's Ray Borbon's. I was just talking about that thing. Funny... http://alpinelite.com/Archive/avalanche.htm [This message has been edited by mikeadam (edited 06-22-2001).]

For the record here. I promise not to bear grudges against anyone in the spray category. I've already lost friends because of stupid misunderstandings created by postings on this site and it's not anything I wish to propagate further. No issues with specialed whatsoever. I would shoot bears in a heartbeat though! Gun toting- Meat eater

Bring it on TWINKY!

Good topic Specialed! [This message has been edited by mikeadam (edited 06-22-2001).]

Anyone have any rituals? Wear lucky underwear? Carry the same cam since 1973? Have a hail Mary stopper? -------------------------------------------- Mountain climbers try to end Red Sox curse BOSTON — The Boston Red Sox have tried high-priced free agents and late-season trades in their efforts to break the Curse of the Bambino and win their first World Series since 1918. Now lifelong Red Sox fan Paul Giorgio has taken things into his own hands — at the top of Mount Everest. On the advice of a Tibetan Buddhist holy man, Giorgio left a Red Sox cap on Mount Everest's summit last month, then burned a New York Yankees cap. He was hoping to break the infamous curse, said to have been set when the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees. So far Giorgio's plan seems to be working. The Red Sox are in first place in the American League East.

One D dude, ONE D! ONE! I think Tod passed beta about Mt Fury or Terror once so I'm down wid ToD....

NO,no no...Dwayner is Ed Viesturs.

Gee, you guys all sound SOOOOO politically correct. The last I checked Colin Powell was back in office somewhere. Let's all sing the bleeding heart theme song 3 times and then head off to Sacramento for sensitivity training.

Donna is Lynn Hill. Wiley wench... [This message has been edited by mikeadam (edited 06-21-2001).]

Hippy ganja smokin bretheren? No dude, we are the former Reagen Youth Stormtroopers... Hang Ten in East Berlin....

FROZEN BRAKES: EV, if you drive back and forth a few times while applying brake pressure before actually shutting down and stopping the vehicle you shouldn't have that problem again. Mike

Or women...

Actually democrat women are the best. They do all the bad stuff and act all stuck up about it like it never really happened. Or make up excuses about it even if they really liked it. Kind of gets me riled in the loins... Does anyone have the feeling Donna Top Step is actually Lynn Hill?

Kashmir, I didn't realize my tax dollars were getting sent to your HIGH opinion court so you could tell "hikers" (as if hiking should be referred to in some derogatory manner) just how much you OWN/MANAGE/POLICE the wilderness down there. I don't see many stipulations other than space available being placed on the amount of people flooding the various paved areas on "Magic Mountain". Something like 90% of all people visiting a national park will never travel further than 100 yards from a paved confluence anyway. Are those the 'good guys' in the white hats? As far as NPS. It's my opinion that Dan Osman is dead because of the NPS in Yosemite's fine efforts to manage wilderness and those that choose to use it. Seems pretty exploited to me, it just depends on who's pocketbook you ask. BOO! Mike Adamson P.S. RIGHT ON DANE!

Yes, I lived and loved in the waning days of the cold war. I watched Red Dawn, Rambo and all that "POW revival kick Vietnam's ass" propaganda. I ate it up, I loved it, I wanted to go to foreign countries meet interesting people experience foreign cultures and then kill them. I mean hey, wasn't that what the 80's and early 90's were all about? The new imperialism manifest destiny? Rebranding our mark on the world? As a founding member of the Reagan Youth Brigade I just want to say this about Democrats and Hippies in general. And I quote... "If I could fly high above the world. Would I see a bunch of living dots spell the word stupidity?" ~BR Oh yeah and I climb sometimes and don't place bolts so this is not entirely unrelated to climbing????? http://alpinelite.com [This message has been edited by mikeadam (edited 06-21-2001).] [This message has been edited by mikeadam (edited 06-21-2001).]

You can all buy your "Ted Nugent -How to kill Bears with your bow and arrow video here" http://sportsvideooutlet.com/cgi-bin/shopzone30.cgi/st_main.html?p_catid=165&sid=AMrABO0Gc0Yl8uG-35101562710.71

Is there going to be a hunting season on those then? That way I won't have to drive to Alaska or BC to shoot me some vittles....

Caveman and I did a blister festival from Stevens to Stehekin a few years ago. It was something like 110 miles down the PCT. We did it (I think) in late July. The bugs at that time we're horrendous. That sucked. The trail had not been maintained in years and we spent alot of time thrutching through the woods to avoid huge deadfalls. That sucked. We had some green trails maps, but I remember wandering around in the woods a bit on some obscure trail when we missed the real one due to fatigue clouding our judgement. That sucked. I had blisters before we started from wearing new boots in Toulumne/Yosemite the weeks prior to coming up to Washington. That really sucked. I think one of those hiker books has the full scoop. Maybe the glacier area one. When we got out we went straight to the Seattle Hempfest to purge our minds of the nightmare bugs we encountered. That's where we met Gretchen from Berkley, but that's another story... Have fun slogging....can't you get like a backcountry campng permit for Rainier? Or is it a matter of caches?
