  1. Kinky bathroom sports for money? You go girl.
  2. Where did you get it and for how much?
  3. just stay connected.
  4. Pictures?
  5. Doug-- you upload the attachment, make your post then after submitting it click on the "attachment" button, copy the URL for the pic then edit your post to add the image. Thats a sweet looking climg. What did it go at? How long?
  6. giving him some reach-around too?
  7. The 'slide show' was opened by the daughter of David Brower (sorry, I don't recall her name) who is a scholar on Yaks and gave a rather interesting presentation on Sherpa history and the environmental impact of yaks following the increase of tourism to Everest base camp. After a short break Thomas Hornbein gave his presentation. While light on the slides and long on the direct readings I found it interesting--what I could hear. He wasn't talking into the mic and mumbled a bit from time to time making it extremely difficult for old guys like myself who've blasted their hearing from gunfire and loud music. I particularly found it touching when he talked about the loss of his teamates over the years. The food was real good. The beer in the conference room was ridiculously expensive ($5.75 for a 12oz bottle of mirror pond) but Shredder quickly turned me onto the fact that you could walk down to the bar and get a pint of Terminal Gravity IPA for $4.50. A good time for a good cause. Two thumbs up from me.
  8. Smells like fish. . .but tastes like chicken!
  9. At least he's not checking out a guys eyebrows
  10. I don't think it froze enough to climb the entire falls this time either. However, I know its been climbed before.
  11. Another obvious cut and paste job. I refuse to believe Trask has the attention span required to write such a lenghty piece without masturbating. Several times.
  12. In Portland, the show is a fundraiser. I don't mind supporting a worthy cause and listening to a guy spray about his impressive accomplishments. Its tax-deductible.
  13. He's doing a slideshow tonight in Portland. I'll post a review tomorrow.
  14. I have a friend who made 600 bones a month while in college doing the hand jive for OHSU.
  15. I bought mine brand new from Sierratradingpost.com for $135. I know of at least two others on here who did as well. Great tools for the alpine. Someone should snap these bad boys up--great deal with the leashes.

    New Secret Objective

    Feeble attempt at humor Dru?
  17. Someones got a foot fetish
  18. Sounds like you got some too.
  19. Werd. If cops cruised this board looking for law breakers we'd all be in jail.
  20. No, its not. The substance left in cracked's gloves after he blew the seam--THATS a sample.
  21. That fine piece of german engineering gets 46mpg in the city.
  22. Thank God the cops are keeping our highways safe!
  23. It was certainly a blast. Kudos to shred for leading the super scary second 'pitch' on Crown Jewel leading into the gulley. The mushrooms were uber hollow and I kept waiting for my fat ass to punch through to the torrent raging below. Instead I topped out only to be nearly swept off by the damn wind. The moss and choss gully scramble was icing on the cake. I'm still high from such a spectaular day!
  24. I don't boulder but if you havent checked it out this site has some info re carver:http://home.earthlink.net/~mrmrsabbott/OregonBouldering.html
  25. An easier way to create more friction whilst using skinny ropes is to just add another biner to the atc. If thats still not enough friction add a biner to your leg loop and re-direct the brake end of the rope through that biner too. I've never encountered a need for more friction than that and I've rapped off 6mm cord.
