I detected a smirk on his face. Probably minute to the smile his daddy's wearin'

A date in Fairbanks? I've heard that the odds are good, but the goods are odd.

I really wonder if that guy is still around.

I for one am damned glad that he is in custody. I did not and for the most part do support the war and occupation. I do however believe this guy needed to be removed from power. Is there a shadow of doubt that it really is Sadaam? I'll choose to believe it's him until proven otherwise. I second Will's comments about historically guys like this when captured do tend to go quietly. Kinda like they are big chicken shits one on one with no one backing them up. I hope that this brings and end or at least a huge slow down on the attacks on American troops in Iraq. Now let's get this thing over with, get our troops home and prosecute Halliburton, get Bush out of office and be done with it!

My experience is that several members of this board have opinions. Anyone got one (opinion) on BD Shrike Ice Tools? Thinking of buying a pair for general mountaineering and the occasional Water Ice route. They look like they'd bounce off of anything too hard, like Alaska Ice, but that isn't in my immediate future. Spray away.....

Know the difference between an alcoholic and an addict? The alcoholic will steal from you and run and hide. The addict will steal from you and then help you look for your shit

No doubt continuing the search for Weapons of Mass Destruction......

You can felch yourself with a turkey baster.

Exactly! You just never see a pee thread! Fecophiliacs? Better that than coprophiliacs. Overheard on a glacier after someone with diarrhea let loose on the snow: "wow, looks like a roarsach test!"

Didn't think that a) they were legible, or b) most would be sober enough to figure it out. Congratulations!!!!!! The name tags take some of the fun out of it...

Pepole keep chestbeating about their brushes with greatness. Where's the photographic proof? Most would be able to identify the Mt. Rainier legend on the right, how about the left?

I got a mortgage from Charlie.

Now that's saying alot!

I've been taking Glucosamine with chondroitin for aboujt 5 years now. I had my left knee scoped in 91 or 92 for a meniscus tear and the same procedure on the right knee in 98 following a partial MCL tear and torn meniscus. I started taking it right after the 98 surgery. I began running and hiking about 3 - 4 weeks after taking the supplements. I swear I could feel the difference in the left knee immediately. I currently take 1500 mg of a brand I buy at Csotco called "Triple Flex". This is the second brand I've used and there was nothing wrong with the other, it's just easier to get it at Costco with the rest of the crap we get there. I highly reccomend it for anyone with slightly arthritic knees or other joints. I understand that there is some anecdotal evidence that Glucosamine promotes new cartlidge growth. Anyone else hear of this?

Had my first drink of Mt. Bachelor this weekend. We spent T-Giving w/my sister in law, who lives in Bend and is on the Ski Patrol there. It was great until the rains came. . Great terrain, and close to a cool little town, I hope you gapers in Bend realize how good you have it!

What happened to all the stories about the "good" things happening in Iraq? You know, "what the media isn't reporting is all the Iraqi people welcoming the troops with open arms". Welcome? Bullshit. I done think GW has worn out his welcome, both here and in Iraq.

Hi, I'm Joe Simpson. Would you like to be my climbing partner? Hi, I'm Jim Wickwire. Would you like to go on an expedition with me? Honey, honest just this one last time.

Irishman with a broken leg walks into a bar, sits down and orders a glass of fine Irish Whiskey. He looks to the end of the bar, and lo an behold , Jesus is sitting there. He calls the bartender over and asks "is that Jesus?" Bartender says "it sure is, came in about an hour or so ago and just sat there". Irishman says "please, give him a glass of this whiskey, on me!". Bartender delivers the glass and Jesus nods in the Irishman's direction and smiles. Next, an Itaian with a broken back walks into a bar, sits down and orders a glass of fine wine. He looks to the end of the bar, and he too notices Jesus sitting there. He calls the bartender over and asks "is that Jesus?" Bartender says "it sure is, came in about an hour or so ago and just sat there". Italian says "please, give him a glass of this vino, on me!". Bartender delivers the glass and Jesus nods in the Italian's direction and smiles. Next, a redneck from Texas walks into a bar, sits down and orders a Longneck Budweiser. He looks to the end of the bar, and notices Jesus is sitting there. He calls the bartender over and asks "is that God's Boy?" Bartender says "it sure is, came in about an hour or so ago and just sat there". Redneck say "shit, give him a bottle of beer, on me!". Bartender delivers the glass and Jesus nods in the redneck's direction and smiles. After polishing off the beverages, Jesus gets up to leave. He walks up to the Irishman and says "thank you my son for your act of kindness. I will now heal you of what ails you." With that, Jesus lays his hand on the Irishman's forehead, and his broken leg his healed. The Irishman gets up and starts dancing around the bar. Next, Jesus walks up to the Italian and says "thank you my son for your act of kindness. I will now heal you of what ails you." With that, Jesus lays his hand on the Italian's forehead, and his broken back his healed. The Italian gets up and starts doing backflips around the bar. Next, Jesus walks up to the redneck and before he can say anything, the redneck says "that's close enough, buster. I'm makin' damned good money on this disability and intend to keep it that way!"

"Shit a guy could have a pretty good time in Vegas with all this" From what classic American Film?

What about Rush? Anyone think the Clinton's are out to run him? God only knows they probably turned him into an addict. My guess his back pain came from trying to go down on himself. Rush Limbaugh is such a fucking LOSER!!!!!!!!!

not a fuckin' chance. if putrid could speak, putrid would say that is fucking putrid.

Now I'm really confused. That description says that GW must be a left winger.

Nah, probably does it Salmon style. Waits till she pisses and swims upstream to spawn.

Rush Limbaugh & Michael Jackson sharing the same prison cell. Would that be some nasty or what? Jacko's new CD has a re-do of an old Elton John song.....Don't Let Your Son Go Down on Me.

With a cam that big I'm sure they are compensating for sub-standard equipment elsewhere!
