I'm 100% positive you've met one greaser; possibly 2. Greaser doesn't= Pig Rigger

FS: It's kind of like calling yourself a climber cause you've toproped 10 times. Ya know repetition is an excellent tactic to get you worked up FS.

Back a while ago you told us you were in the military. You did do that. But you were definately not in the military like Caveman or Mike Adamson.

Actually for the true NW greeting to Todd you need grease from the train tracks.

FS please heed Greg W's comments to you.

bull shit! fuck you i was in the army... i was just gonna do airborne when i got a track scholarship... so suck ballz! Well in any case you claim military service without being an active member, much less being shot at.

for president

taht is precisely my point as well numb nuts... Fence, shut the fuck up or debate intelligently. Sheeeeit, you're giving conservatives a bad name here.

Yes the busses piss me off. They could easily get rid of 1/2 the marked bus stops; I don't worry about killing the bus though. There are some points on N 40th where you need to be on the street, however you don't have to be on it all the way across town. I don't ride all the time, but when I do I use side streets next to arterials when I can. Plus I know a bunch of people who ride a lot who criticize bikers on narrow arterials.

He wasn't actually in the military. He droped out of ROTC

Tree huggers piss me off

I'll give you this example. N 40th heading up the hill to Wallingford Ave. N. This is a narrow arterial. A number of times I've been driving the chip truck up the street with oncoming traffic and a biker going up the hill. The biker could have easily gone one block north or south and had the a street to themselves, and not lost any time commuting or whatever. I've also seen bikers riding up N 65th to Phinney, which is quite narrow. Riding a few blocks north would give the biker a much less burly hill and virtually no car traffic.

What happens when they coincide, Kurt? They don't. The hidden agenda for righties is to create a ruling class. I hear lots of talk about free markets and ending government regulations from the right, but then I see nepotism like Cheyney's company Haliburton getting an uncontested contract to rebuild Iraq. That doesn't sound very free market. Bill Gates Sr. (no liberal) is against dropping the inheritance tax. He's worried about long term concentration of wealth creating a ruling class. If you righty guys have your way we'll have an emperor not a president.

What's that? Are you AC/DC or something?

I get annoyed at bikers when I see them riding on a narrow arterial when they could be riding on sidestreets 1 block away. However in general Thinker has a seriously crappy attitude about bikers.

No he's just quoting some jackass named Cooper

Whatever, 13,700'. Sorry to get your panties all twisted up. I never said you couldn't climb it. However if you have a limited time the N ridge isn't a good choice this time of year. I've hiked to the base of the route on a hot day only to find the rock at the base coated in ice.

Believe what you want, but the weather in June in the Tetons is just as unsettled as it is here and the N ridge holds ice for a while. The weather in the valley can be great while it isn't the case at 14,000' If you get a good spell the soutside routes might be alright.

In June the routes up high are likely to be out of shape. Definately the N Ridge will be covered in rime ice. There's lots of good stuff on lower peaks and in the canyons as mentioned above.

I've climbed both the N face and the Hourglass in August. Both routes were in good shape, but with the way summers seem to go recently August may be too hot and September would be better.

If you're a big enough business in WA you can set set up your own empolyee workplace insurance and you don't have to pay into Labor and Industries. Wallmart has their own workplace insurance, and they fuck their employees who get hurt on the job. Who pays for this? You do in the long run; cause Wallmart employees eventually end up in the emergency room of your local hospital without any money or insurance to pay for their job related injury. You get what you pay for In my business, if you go for the lowest bid, chances are you're hiring some jackass who doesn't have legal employees and does shitty work. Prices in the middle of the range are truly the best deal
