Still time for martial law to be declared before the congress is sworn in :-)

Thats what I was thinking, a few more trees I would say you were on the Far Side :-D

Summer: 6:30 a.m. to dusk. Winter: Closed Oct. 9, reopens March 16, depending on trail conditions. From : http://www.parks.wa.gov/parkpage.asp?selectedpark=Peshastin%20Pinnacles&pageno=1

Depending on your wonk level, the council of foreign relations has a fair number of podcasts on foreign affairs, economics, etc... http://cfr.org/

Agreed, given the precedent of Exit 38/Deception Crags being a State Park and you have an unattended bathroom/parking lot with climbing...

"Alright listen up! In future, when rapelling down a steep trail, try not to look like such a dork! Mountie High Command, signing out!" Why rappel , when you can ride the train!

AP - http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/C/C...-09-28-19-09-50 WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate on Thursday endorsed President Bush's plans to prosecute and interrogate terror suspects, all but sealing congressional approval for legislation that Republicans intend to use on the campaign trail to assert their toughness on terrorism. The 65-34 vote means the bill could reach the president's desk by week's end. The House passed nearly identical legislation on Wednesday and was expected to approve the Senate bill on Friday, sending it on to the White House.

meanwhile the country is gripped by the news of another dead white girl

65-34

does that give you the right to "hog" a finite resource while delaying, and thereby endangering, other climbers? When the heck did a climbing route become lumped in with stuff like coal, breathable air, and clean water? Finite resource? there is a lot of rock around. Sounds more like too many folks with too little imagination for climbing destinations...

why didn't we impose a draft and expect similar national sacrafice such as a tax to pay for all this? why do a draft when you can backdoor it with the guard/reserves. As for a tax, I think the repubs are going to be talking about medicaid/medicare cuts in the future as we should all "need to make sacrifices"...

It is very odd...

You park in the back of the walmart lot and head east

My favorite movie scene about business cards

Rainier Shuttle 360-569-2331 May through October. Mount Rainier National Park and Ashford.

It helps when he "uncoils"

Dude, that describes any Wal-mart

Actually we'll just start calling him "the Chief". Now go read your Sinclair Lewis

$2 million, for his bumbling interviews? I like his show for his humor and more for his recurring guest ( Oliphant in paticular), but $2 million? Now Mike Malloy, before he was fired, he was enterntainment. Listened to him when I walked the dog at night, guy sounded like he was going to strangle people on the air

Actually, its ALL family in Darrington. Going to climb Glacier Peak several years ago, a guy flagged us down who looked like he was in accident, we pulled over let him get in the truck. He was completely scratched up from head to toe like he had just bushwhacked through a mile of blackberries. Asked if we could drop him off at a pharmacy so he could get some ointment... That weekend every car at the trailhead was also broken into .
