  1. You ever taken a winger like that and walked, crawled or hobbled away? No, I am not joking. Anyone can fall off....getting out by yourself after something like that is admirable. Few have the stones required to pull it off. Dane, I admire those guys for crawling out. You're self rightious attitude though I have some first hand experience on the subject from long ago. Yes it is a very tough thing to do, but you don't get any kind of reward for doing that. Trust me.
  2. Yeah, Sales at convenience stores will go up. Getting stoners out of jail will save tax money too. It really should be treated as a medical problem. Teenage kids should be told, "yeah you can do that, but this is what can happen... Just the same way you get told yes you can drink, but if you like to drive... I believe the recent study involving the link between THC and testicle cancer might be a good article to give kids. Link Of course that might cut down on State revenue after lots of guys read it.
  3. What about that picture of Rat I added How can that not be classic Cascade stuff.
  4. Damn. That's a long distance to crawl.
  5. I took a job for a few months back in the 80s at this plastic part production plant. They had these crazy huge stamp machines that would spit out some crazy part. I remember working on a machine that spit out kayak helmets. I'd have to take a knife to each one and trim off bits of excess plastic from each helmet. They had these Terminator like plastic sunglasses too, and all kinds of other crap. Everybody working at the factory refered to the place as the Plastic Fucktory.
  6. Well I don't recall seeing it before. I'm not in Spray 24/7 thank god.
  7. That's hilarious Ivan.
  8. Pete's on a direct flight to spring training with no Internet service.
  9. I named a sewage plant after one of my non CC friends on Facebook. There are some cool things about that site. I'd lost contact with a buddy of mine from my stay in Colorado in the early 90s. Now I know what he's been doing over the last few years. I believe a Tacoma Pub Club needs a local advocate. In the past Eric and Raindawg would stand up for the City of Destiny. In these times even Seattle Pub Clubs are almost nonexistent. I think they relied on the backing of Schuldtzy for their dominance.
  10. Trip: Chair Peak - North slopes down to Snow Lake Date: 2/15/2009 Trip Report: I've skied the east side of Chair Peak down to Source Lake many times. Somehow I never bothered to ski the north side though. I figured I should make up for that. Cman and I had a fun ski down to Snow Lake. View down to the lake Here's the view up the slope There is some nice powder to ski. Some is wind packed though, and given the current winter you're skiing on a frozen spring layer. It wasn't perfect pow, but it was a pretty fun trip. Gear Notes: Snow sliding equipment is advised Approach Notes: Go to Alpental then head towards Chair Peak.
  11. Yep they got buried. They did take the time to try and educate themselves. Knowledge only helps some. No matter how much knowledge and tools you have you can still misjudge conditions. Nice that they made it out.
  12. The only war I'm interested in is the pig war. We should battle over pigs and potatoes till we get bored and or somebody brings some eggs then have a nice bacon and egg breakfast to settle the issue. [img:center]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/13/PigWar-boundaries.png[/img]

    Julio!

    I'm a bare-chested 47 year old who can't even grow a mustache. Aren't Neanderthals all hairy 'n shit? Without the hair you must be a devolved Neanderthal. I'm sure a real Neanderthal would be embarrassed by your lack of hair.
  14. Yes it is the obvious slide path on Mt Snoqualmie just north of the lifts at Alpental. As of a couple weeks ago the tricky bit is going through the waterfall area down low. zig zag up through the trees on the left side. The current snow pack has made this bit a little more tricky than usual, but it isn't bad. Once through the waterfall area cut back right to the slide path. At the top of the open trees angle up to the left. You'll get to an open area with the summit above. A notch further left is the easy way to and back from the north side. If I may say wouldn't you rather have skis than slowshoes.
  15. No kidding.
  16. Don't force me to link for you. [img:center]http://mlb.mlb.com/images/2009/02/12/8Suochqa.jpg[/img] Ken Griffey-Mariners
  17. Not in North America, but at some huts it's already there.
  18. Maybe kevbone and akhalteke need their own private forum.
  19. I'll just tell the office manager I know you and you'd be upset if I didn't get all the printing done I needed. I'm working on a very important project.
  20. Your company needs a branch office in Seattle/Tacoma. That would make things more convenient for me.
  21. It sure is hard to pick up stuff without hands.
  22. Especially when you ask first and offer to share.
  23. Oh that's a good way in the right place, but not for day skiing with any easy human powered approach.
  24. Not a bad post for true spray, but the Cafe' not so much.
