    SUSHI

    I love Sushi. I'll keep eating it, but it probably isn't the best thing for the environment.
  2. I need to make some money, but I don't have clue 1 what WYSIWYG means. Is it something kinky? 8D
  3. A long time ago I wasn't aiding, but I was rope soloing the Green Spur in Eldorado Canyon. I got up early to beat the crowd and got to the route first. I led the first pitch then rapped to clean it. At the base I ran into a couple who had just got there looking to do the same climb. The dude seemed grumpy and wanted to pass. I told him that if they caught up with me I had no problem with them passing. I then jugged the rope and started on the second pitch. I never saw the dude again till I was rapping to clean the last pitch. He gave me a dirty look, and I laughed and headed to the top. I never saw the couple again. The point is I have no problem with faster groups passing, but I don't automatically assume that somebody is going to be faster. In the case at Index if I was in a group of 5 on the first short bit of a pitch and a smaller group showed to do the complete route I might not instantly let them pass, but I would let them pass. In the case in Eldo the whole thing just makes me laugh.
  4. 10 min at one time or 10 min over the course of a day. I might be able to keep up with the second choice.
  5. I'm watching you too beotch.
  6. Shit I'd come up if I had my driving permission back. I haven't been to Canada since our trip to Icemaker. On second thought maybe I did go to Squish once later on
  7. I've been drinking a lot of tea and stevia. The stevia is like a sweetener but it has 0 cals and it's natural (as far as I know). It sure as hell isn't nutrasweet or whatever. I'd love a beer or any alcohol drink, but the doctors told me not to drink any until I'm done with antiseizure meds. It makes me but it does help with loosing weight. Right now I'm down 7 lbs from my start date or down 3.5 from the contest start. There are some burley city stairs behind my place to do laps on.
  8. I agree with that. If we wanted Index to be back to it's natural state we would be out putting soil, moss, ferns, and other small trees and plants back in the cracks. You'd have to leave Western Washington to do any climbing on rocks that hadn't been scrubbed. Basically every thing that climbers have done has drastically altered the natural state of things.

    Mind Fuck

    Heat said: Since 06 eh. I think I've been a member since 00, but I'm not a long time member since there are folks who have been regular members for even longer. In my humble opinion it is possible that you are too much of a pussy to climb Liberty Ridge.
  10. Sherri I have an 81 International Truck with a 30,000lbs GVW. It's a gas engine and it has a knuckleboom mounted on the back with a dumping bed. You could load a small shack into the bed for camping, or you could load a scout vehicle. The downside is you need a CDL to drive it; but think how impressive you'll be. Maybe I'll put a picture of it in the yard sale forum.
  11. I'm in....my birthday is on the 29th
  12. U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The next time you try and cross you are so fucking busted.
  13. I'm not against siege tactics on routes as long as you know the folks who want to blast through a route have the priority over you even if you were there first.
  14. My grandmother used to call her Valiant, "Betsy." Betsy lasted a long time.
  15. I've always questioned what's in those sausage rolls they love to sell up in Canuckia.
  16. I've got you beat. My scale says 216.5 I'm already down 3.5 from May 1. I think I might get a special category since I was in the hospital for a long time and not really exercising for quite a while afterwards. I should be at 180, but that's a long ways off
  17. Memorial Day weekend is May 26 to the 28th.
  18. It looks like some fun skiing.

    Chem

    If you want to make bank I'd suggest getting into the crystal meth business All I know about PH is trees like acidic soils... but not too acidic.
  20. From time to time I think about moderating stuff. On the other hand sometimes a discussion of stuff like a woman's worth needs the interjection of an internet posters worth.
  21. I don't know Raindawg. Most folks are proud of FAs. Shouldn't other folks be proud of first debolting (FDB)
  22. Face to face insulting should be done in a timely manner. On the intardnet insulting is never too late.
  23. Someday folks will pay to go look at all the human trash up there, and if they slip the guide a few extra bucks they'll get to take some home to put on the wall.

  25. It was a long read, but that dive story was crazy.
