  1. If I am feeling froggy I reply "I work too hard for my money to just give it away." Funniest thing I saw was a punk carrying a sign that said "Insult the street punk" with a pricelist. $1 for insults concerning his appearance; $5 for using profanity.
  2. I imagine it the snow cover might be getting pretty thin towards the top. Wear a helmet and get an early start. be especially careful on the descent as thats where most parties have trouble. A fall here is fatal.
  3. Here's to bible-thumping shit-talkers.
  4. If you get started up Prussik early you should have no problem doing Outerspace in the same day. I hope you are in decent shape though.
  5. Absolutely. What a horribly shallow premise. Now that bachelor show with the midgets--thats good entertainment.
  6. One more vote for pulling over and letting him pass. It eases the tension levels of all involved.
  7. Mr. Doolittle wrote: and he also wrote on 05/02/04: The more things change, the more they stay the same.

    twin ropes

    In my experience, twins offer less rope drag than a single strand of the same length. Also, not mentioned previously, is that the skinnier the rope, the more prone to tangling. Rope management becomes very important when climbing on twins.
  9. We'll be in La Paz at some point around that time but my return flight is on the 25th. Pub Club?
  10. That sucks Greg. Sorry to hear about it. I think if I was you I'd take up thelawgoddess on her offer of letting you play with her rack. If nothing else it will take your mind off things.

    Van Parasites!

    I bet that thing hauls ass over the passes. Good thing its not a pop-top huh E?
  12. Interestingly, the guy they were interviewing who was the "experienced leader" was pretty soft-spoken about how his team caused the accident by flossing the folks that died down the hogsback.
  13. I think you mean Massachussettes
  14. I'd love to get a copy of that guide.
  15. Do they promise a MILF with membership?
  16. SPED? Is this some new kind of slur?
  17. I came away with a similar interpretation as Will. Furthermore, I also got the feeling that the military was not as choosy as the above suggests.
  18. Another vote for Sabres. Do a search on here for LOTS of discussion re crampons on tele boots. I've been using sabretooths (teeth?) on my Terminators for years.
  19. I disagree Ivan. Those destinations often require a time committment that allows for greater flexibility. For example, you can summit Denali in less than two weeks if you are lucky with weather etc but most climbers budget a month or so. Same for Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia. Liberty Ridge, because of its proximity to a major metropolitan area, can be climbed in a long weekend if the weather cooperates. Which also explains why Hood and Fuji are climbed in such droves.

    Chalabi Raid

    The US provides him with support (financial and political) and then he turns around and dumps on us. What an opportunist.

    Chalabi Raid

    A raid was carried out on INC leader Chalabi's house under a warrant following the theft of state-owned vehicles. (Source)
  22. Neil Goldschmidt will be very pleased to hear this.
  23. Am I the only one who finds PP's writing style nearly incomprehensible?
