  1. Andy's Diner!!! I loved that place when I was a kid; it doesn't get any better than eating on a train.
  2. Like Fairweather, I did the same job shortly after the Nisqually Quake. The degree of nastiness is entirely a function of whether one can sit up or not. Fortunately, I could in this case. You gotta crawl under my house; plus there a beams that you need to squeeze under. Don't worry F I've spent a lot of time under my house in the year I've owned it.
  3. Yes it does for the unimaginative If you want to learn something about the real world Fairweather you can come over and help me bolt my house to the foundation...I love my crawl space.
  4. Maybe you should read a little more before you post Brian. A day late and a dollar short
  5. That's amazing, you both have the same birthday. Happy Happy
  6. It's the deep feeling of calm that comes over you after you drink a fifth of Tanqueray. and before you start puking.
  7. Does NOLSe know about this new wind suit? I'm sure you could do some hyper alpinism with it.

    SUCK

    It sure doesn't look worth driving from Seattle.
  9. This thread has the convergence of two opposites. Pope hates all bolts Lucky has never seen a bolt, chipped hold, or other artificial feature that he doesn't love. Maybe the two of them will collide like matter and anti-matter and annihilate each other...one can only dream.
  10. That's ok. The climbing ruled yesterday, but it was snowing this morning.
  11. Mt Robson for me with 4 attempts. 1st: Kane face spent 1.5 days in a tent while 2.5' of freshiez accumulated. 2nd: N Face, got to the shrund at midnight and we were wallowing in crotch deep slush plus as soon as the sun hit the face it started avalanching. 3rd: Drove to the parking lot and didn't like it...no sir. 4th Wishbone arete, we bivied somewhere on the route and woke up to rain and a nice static hum as we rapped. 5th Climbed the Wishbone
  12. hmm. I bet she gets back aches. That's a little too much
  13. It looks like I don't have to thanks to Alpinfox. It's interesting to hear your views and then visit Ass.com where they about how this site is dominated by liberals
  14. Maybe we need a global crack down on Dru.
  15. Someday when you're rich and old with a dependable car you'll like Levenworth. Index does rule, but Trundle dome's cool too.
  16. Laton Kor and Derik Hersey for sure. I also notice they're giving the, "Planetary Defense," salute. classic Eldo
  17. I've seen this movie, and I thought it was wierd but worth seeing. Of course I also liked Rock and Roll Highschool; that is I liked the actress who played the principal and the rockometer.

    I think Fairweather is getting all misty eyed dusting off his old trophys and letter jacket and listening to Bruce....Glory Days.
  19. Yeah fuck the environment...we can reduce our dependence on forigen oil by 1% at best. 20 years from now.
  20. I've gotta work, but even with this recent rain and cool down Index is going to be way better than it usually is at this time of year. It's still super dry; there are no seeps anywhere at Index, and it's going to take a lot more than 1 storm to recarge the ground water. Go climb if you can!
  21. Not that they aren't without challenge, but anything on a volcano doesn't really fit my idea of a classic alpine face. NE face of Triumph is a good one, so is Furry, Bear, and Barring. The North Norwegian Buttress is pretty awsome too.
  22. press me
  23. Wrong. The first year it was both on City Park and over the drill hole.
  24. CrazyJZ can fill in the details, but I believe that Rat said as some evil anti pig climber removed the pig from City Park, "We don't fuck with your rap placed bolts why are you fucking with our lead placed pig."
  25. It won't be a real history unless you mention greasing and pig rigging.
