Yeah. It's the credit card company's fault... not the toolshed with the Audi, fancy new rack, ArcTeryx gear and $30K in CC debt. That was kind of my point.... And it's only 25% of their debt..... this sounds so much like the welfare debate - assume that all persons in XYZ situation are there solely from poor personal decisions based on (possibly) extreme examples.

The right to piss in your post toasties.

Chickens are only good for one thing.

There's no fucking way a tent pole would make a good avalanche probe - borrow a good probe and test it in the snow. Compare and contrast design vs. tent pole On the other hand, I've turned an old CF probe into a decent pair of light tent poles for my betamid

Thanks Norm.

What does your qualify you for? honorary baby boomer?

absurd ad hominem attack - I nominate you for the "KK Postalike" award Going to start posting in a foreign language next?

Well, that is the mantra for your generation - and your posts so far on this thread. As the failure line moves closer to the mean, the number below the mean increases. In this case the "failure line" is debt and not making forward fiscal progress. You can sit smugly and pontificate, or realize the danger to the US economy that massive consumer debt and a negative savings rate pose. Hey, it'll be what funds the economy during your retirement. Of course, maybe they should have just learned from your shining example

If it walks, talks, and quacks like a duck.... perhaps it's a wildabeast? Your generation has increasingly pawned off the burdens of society to younger generations - decreasing their disposable income - and increased your own by reducing your tax burden. You then are mad when others wish to enjoy things in the same manner you did.

blah, blah, blah. My only point was an air of smug superiority from a generation whose cut taxes in part from selfishness, then passed on the higher cost of education, health care, transportation and living to a younger generation, then bitchs about how that generation isn't as financially well off as themselves is nauseating. It was alot easier for you guys to "waste" money with fewer consequences.

yah, I know people whose must haves are car repairs and medical expenses. What does your smug superiority qualify you for? The JayB/KK internet republican club?

well, part of it is difficulties managing funds. Part of it is housing costs, medical care, and other necessities in major metropolitan areas have increased substantially in the past 30 years as a % of real income. Yeah, it is harder to get ahead when things cost more.

Well, it sounds like your sexlife hasn't improved if screwing is your predilection

Nice. There are a bunch of his prints for sale at Patagucci Ventura. Samivel had some nice work as well:

1) bollocks 2) I believe Killion climbs(ed) or at least ski mountaineers

It wasn't something by Chiura obata? or Tom Killion?

Aww - look at all that fiber for the veal to eat to keep them nice and tender!
