I've had some decent Canadian micro-type beer in a can. Cans are cool they pack easier, and they never have a snobish feel.

Well la de da...I'll just go play my grand piano.. I love trash fiction I've got a copy I'm fixin to read. If I ever learn how that is.

Now there's an idea!

CrazyJZ suffers from a number of psycological problems; fortunately most of them are harmless.

It means that you're too much of a wimp to straight line it on a hill so you stick a pole between your legs and use it as a brake...and hope the tip doesn't hit a rock. Actually I have no idea, but it sounds good to me...feel free to use it if you can't come up with something better.

Yes May None of your beeswax No

I wish you would have taken my advice and moved to Australia for the winter...you would have done us all a favor. I know that climate change isn't proved or disproved by one season's weather, but it's hard for most people to relate to the real evidence; which makes bickering about it a lot easier. The closest I can get to thinking about climate change is remembering the winters of the early 70's. There were plenty of days when it would be raining at Snoqualmie Pass, but there was always a ton of snow. I believe the last big snow year 98-99 would have been about average in the 70s. Maybe if we sacrifice Rudy it'll stop climate change.

I can't believe you're not outside taking advantage of this warm weather.

So where are you climbing at right now Rudy. You must be loving this warm weather.

Man...and I thought it was great when we got our hands on some blue window pane in high school.

Well solved for another 20 years until global warming really gets going.

I knew there was a reactionary conservative inside you Dave. My ex boss had a number of quirks. Most of them are pretty funny, but you would have had to been there. One thing that does stick out is the time the company went out to a breakfast meeting. My boss ordered his meal from the waitress and then yelled at her, "...,and bring it to me on one plate. I don't like this two plate crap."

How much climbing are you doing right now Rudy???? None...I thought so.

Yes but at least Bob gets to go to a city with a bit of entertainment not a bible thumping hellhole.

They look cool! I'd do them if I didn't have this phobia about doing grade 5 off the couch.

I saw that guy and his buddy waiting for the last Star Wars movie. I think it was in December and the movie opened in May. After a couple weeks I drove by Cinerama again and he was gone.

I skied past a bunch of good looking grade 5ish stuff just outside Baker ski area yesterday. I'm sorry I don't know the names of things around there but the climbs I saw are above a small lake past the saddle inbetween Herman and Table mountain. Somebody should go climb them!!! At least 2 of the dihedrals are fully in.

No matter how you spin it nalo you've come across as greedy and grasping. I mean you put in a couple hours of work and then you get a party afterwords. That sounds good to a lot of people, but you want people to buy beer and do all the organizing for a party just so you can show up and have a good time without doing anything. I kind of think the there isn't a need or a good place for a cc party at a crag in the spring. Leavenworth area has a lot of classes and I believe the VW has some kind of overhyped event there in the spring. Smith has the Spring Thing which I don't think we should try and compete with. The Spring Ski In is the next cc event and despite the name there's plenty of opportunity for alpine rock and lower elevation cragging. The way this winter is going there may be a lot more cragging in the spring. There will be plenty of chances for unsanctioned, unplanned partying at Smith this spring.

Happy birthday. Now try reading the thread...try looking at Bugs post.

Instead of sticking more pins in my voodoo doll that looks a lot like Rudy I went bc skiing around Baker today. 1' of powder...yes it ruled.

BC K2 X14's with fritchi bindings K2 Shuksans with dynafit bindings Area Skiing Elan MBX 16 (207 cm)with Marker rotamat bindings. I would just like to add that I hate the word quiver as applied to skiing.

I've never skied in the Sierras, but it's starting to look like a really good idea this winter.

Hey man I'm going to see the Hawks next weekend, and I'm not paying a dime...except for the 7 dollar beers. They'll probably lose; but just the same....Go Hawks.
