inconceivable! "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

Actually, I think it was "LOOK OUT BELOW!!!1" And it was indeed rather tricky. There was a concern that I might shit upon the rope, which is never good. So I pulled up a bunch of it and draped it over the tops of my ankles to keep it out of the impact zone.

Really had to take a crap badly on the rap down from NF of N Peak of Index a few years back. Was desparately trying to keep the beast contained until we could get off the raps and into the scrub at the base of the route. I was first on one of the very last raps, the beast was about to escape into my trowzerz, and I just couldn't wait any longer, so I rigged an autoblock and dropped trow while still in mid-rap and in harness. Now you know the reason why the Alpine Bod harness was invented. I have yet to find another harness as light as the AB and where one can remain tied in and drop pants to shit.

I live by this as well. Another one: "The key to a happy life in the mountains is to be well ventilated." Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrttttt!!!1

You're right, it's probably more genetic than anything. Polish father, German mother... I'm doomed to life of alcohol dependency...

You know, sobo, there's research out there that drinking coffee strongly reduces the risk of getting cirrhosis. Perhaps instead of abstinence you should drink (more?) coffee. I drink a pot of freedom-pressed java every morning. Perhaps this explains my functional alcoholism...

Is "apple" a shape?

Not tonight, 5K. Gotta give the ol' liver a reprieve sometime, ya know...

And you didn't too well in grammergrammar/spelling/punctuation- it's "geography" (no caps). And you didn't do too well at spelling, either.

yeah, spraying all over everything without so much as a thought for others...

you certain of that? did you see him do it? or you just thought you did?

Given CM's history and past antics, I'd be willing to opine that there's more to this incident than either the paper or the CM's lawyer is letting on. I'm just sayin'...

you think so? I'm not so certain. neither is this guy...

We'll get right on it!

So I'm thinking on Think Before You Post Thursday about Plan Ahead Friday, or Abuse the Balless Dwarf Friday, or whatever, and I have an alternate theme to go along with that. How about Plan Ahead to Fuck with the Balless Dwarf Friday!!!1 Here's a primer on how to get started. Whaddaya think? Rvv2D5d7Z9o
