You mean the one he commits or the one he actually gets busted for?

On the subject of MD vs. PT, I had recurrring shoulder pain for quite some time, and even dislocated it once in Boston Basin. CT scan showed small tear, doc wanted to operate. I decided to wait until after a trip to the Tatras. Following Bob's advice of ice/heat/stretching & strengthening I have been over a year pain free now. No surgery. Fuck doctors.

Speaking of poles, isn't it time for Glassgowkiss to weigh in?

As do I--at least he's serving which is far less than most who complain the loudest.

See? The right is trying to censore us already.

Non-fat, not "skinny". How vulgar!

Green beret is a hat. Special Forces, an elite unit of the Army, uses a green beret as part of their uniform. No surprise to me that Scotty signed up to be an intelligence officer in the Army. REMF.

I dont agree with supplying lead ropes either as that pushes more liability back on Gary AND means people using the ropes aren't motivated to take care of them. You don't get two free day passes with an annual membership anymore?

I thought we were talking about Bush? Why do you infuse Clinton into this? He had nothing to do with Iraq.

Saying we invaded due to genocide is profoundly ridiculous. Are you now a spokesman for the administration?

Did you guys make a wrong turn at the Fish Grotto or what? Get a room!

What about offering more weight equipment and cardio equipment? They charge more than any other gym in Portland, they should offer more than any other gym in Portland.

Check out the Black Diamond trigger finger mitts I am selling in the yard sale. I'm in Portland these babies will serve you well. A lot cheaper than the OR gloves.

Thin Red Line has not seen a winter ascent?

At least you haven't rolled it on your way to the grasslands yet.

Nelson vol 1, Nelson vol 2

I was at a party where a married couple showed up with the male dressed as a pilot with a slit throat and his wife as a stewardess with a slit throat. This was Halloween 2001. They were asked to leave.

"teel biners" not actually accurate--its a steel quicklink. You can pick one up at Home Repo for pretty cheap.

Among other things.

I've climbed a route that goes directly up the ridge, although we got shut down by the final pitch which I imagine is the one A1 pitch vert refers to. It was pretty wet when we were on it. I hope to get back up there real soon. This peak is almost literally in TGs backyard.
