    Check out this other project by Dan the Automator:

     

    Lovage: Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By

     

    It keeps me happy.

     

    I'm also grooving on Micheal Franti & Spearhead (Everybody deserves music).

     

    For those unfamiliar, it's the legitimate child of Barry White and Billy Bragg

  2. desperate to leave the city during weekdays.

     

    Aid, ice, alpine, crag, bc ski, hike up Si with a Mountie strapped to my back- I don't care.

     

    pm me with loving offers.

     

    The only catch is that I turn into a pumpkin at 3pm.

  3. I thought I heard something about one modle beinf recalled or something cantfocus.gif don't listen to me my memory sucks

    yelrotflmao.gifyelrotflmao.gif Yeah, when the modle beinf, you know it's time to get a new belay device!

     

    I do hear a lot of people trash the Jaws, which baffles me. It's exactly the same as the ATC, unless you use the teeth, in which case it's similar to the ATC-XP.

    Whatever.

    If anyone else wants to unload those lousy Jaws, drop me a line; I use 'em for teaching newbie friends how to belay.

  4. My day-dreams have been filled with images of climbing clean rock in the sunshine lately. It's time for me to lay the groundwork for a cool vacation to someplace sunny, mellow, and relaxing.

    Lots of friends have gone to Krabi etal, and that sounds nice, but I was also curious about southern Europe.

    Anyone here have any experience or advice regarding climbing in Spain, Italy, or Greece? Specifically I was looking at Sardinia, Mallorca, Kalymnos, etc. It would be ideal to mix some longer routes (Dolomites) with some relaxing cragging on the beach.

    Anyone got stories to share?

  5. The SBG is a piece of shit. Don't waste your time.

     

    The stem on the SBG is too short, causing way too much friction on the rope.

     

    However, I wouldn't sleep well if I didn't put in a plug for my favorite device,the Trango Jaws.

    Just like the ATC, with the option of additional friction if you're using skinny ropes.
