What's the safety word?

I hope you've got a hose running out the window.

I think Trask is between jobs..

yes.

I got a lump of coal This changes everything. I'm going to be nice from now on. You're still fuckers.

why are you spraying? You're s'posed to be climbing in Kalifornia.

Everybody starts somewhere, E-rock.

Are tazers on the 50 essentials?

Now we're talking! Keep the photo's coming, Kubek!

Whatever. He wasn't nominating it for Alpinist 10 - he's just showing that he put that Mountie training to use. As much as they are fun to tease about stunts like dirt-rappeling, they deserve credit for giving him the training to get up Liberty Crack.

Don't make the mistake of building a home gym. You will not find any prana tops in there.

this is a beautiful shot

I hadn't noticed until now that the woman in blue was aiding "Pipeline & No Parking." That line has gone free since '82.

I really wanna know where this pic was taken The ugly industrial beige walls look vaguely familiar, but I just can't place it. Anyone?

as long as he has cc.com, Dru will never be lonely..

Arc'Teryx is the new North Face. It has the cachet that MEC lacks. Everyone wants to drag their 3ply 'Teryx around campus, in their SUV, to the soccer game. Soon, it will be in the back of the closet, with their Adidas shoes, parachute pants, and Vuarnet sunglasses.

Depending on name variant 1. Colonel Furryface 2. Major Bushkisser 3. King Out Of My Tree

That's badass- I'll be waiting for those pics.

My universe is an enantiomer of yours.

I'm trying to visualize this (stopping a whipper with a grigri tethered to a screamer), and the only image I get is the grigri taking out my remaining teeth. ..and as Cracked points out, I can't imagine what situation would generate those kind of forces on the belay device (factor 2 falls only?) but then again, I'm a pessimist.

Don't forget your gaiters, boys!

The piano has been drinking My necktie is asleep And the combo went back to new york The jukebox has to take a leak And the carpet needs a haircut And the spotlight looks like a prison break Cause the telephone's out of cigarettes And the balcony's on the make And the piano has been drinking The piano has been drinking... And the menus are all freezing And the lightman's blind in one eye And he can't see out of the other And the piano-tuner's got a hearing aid And he showed up with his mother And the piano has been drinking The piano has been drinking Cause the bouncer is a sumo wrestler Cream puff casper milk toast And the owner is a mental midget With the i.q. of a fencepost Cause the piano has been drinking The piano has been drinking... And you can't find your waitress With a geiger counter And she hates you and your friends And you just can't get served Without her And the box-office is drooling And the bar stools are on fire And the newspapers were fooling And the ash-trays have retired The piano has been drinking The piano has been drinking The piano has been drinking Not me, not me, not me, not me, not me
