I did not like the idea of either war (Afghanistan or Iraq), but I felt that at least for Afghanistan, we had a "better reason" for going in, because that is where we knew Al Quaida was churning out recruits and that was where OBL was hiding. And the Taliban were not "down home boys" either. Truth be known, if we wantd a fight, we should have started a fracas with N Korea, cuz that muthafuckka is fucking crazy, he has nukes, he has control of them and his military, and he's just plumb crazy enough to push the button. There, I said it.

Since you invoke Nuremburg and "waging aggressive war", I think you probably should read up on the definition of war of aggression. Where is our "territorial aggrandizement and conquest"? We have no intention (at least I hope to Dog we don't) of colonizing Iraq and/or Afghanistan (ergo, no territorial aggrandizement), and we ain't getting oil any cheaper (ergo, no conquest), so I think your argument falls a little shy of the mark.

no, but I can be easily convinced...

I'm hot

I find that they should be anything but mutually exclusive. Dip a chip in guac, then dip in salsa, eat. It's not double-dipping, I swear!

Wow, the increased content in that post is ginormous.

Mine are too, and with the surviving wife and the deceased's friend. RE: beta... As of 3.5 hours ago, MRNP has suspended the descent/rescue operation because the window of opportunity has closed. The weather is improving, but not so much as they will risk a helo evac. The forecast for tomorrow looks better, and they have two choppers on standby. A CH-47 (Chinook) from the 101st Airborne out of Camp Lewis, and a lighter, privately-operated, A-Star from WorldWind Helicopters (Renton). The name of the deceased is still not being released because the NPS is having difficulty in locating the deceased's family. His wife is one of the survivors at Camp Muir, if I didn't make that clear at the beginning of this post.

so what kind of tomatoes were they?

linking this thread back to an earlier thread in the Climbers Board, because it was posted about 4 hours earlier over there. Let's move the discussion to the Climbers Board thread. OKTHNXBAI

OK, mebbe I'm just a prudish old shitster, but I find that article kind of funny, in a weird sorta way. BTW, if Doc Bitchslinger's right, then my two kids are gonna be the healthiest breeders on the whole fucking planet!

and remember the responses you received from your first thread on this topic. Your ability to navigate in a whiteout cannot be overemphasized. See the news item linked in CascadesHiker's post immediately above. That happened just today. This is not an uncommon occurrence on this snowfield. Download the GYB sheet and know how to use a map and compass or a GPS. Now go out there and have some fun!!!1

they're in the category of "colossal", which is more epicer than "substantial" BTW bill, it's "ginormous"

absofuckinglutely! Go hot or go home!

Although I have no experience with Depends (yet... ), I suspect they wouldn't appear to have big butts until *after* the deployment of The Weapon. So they'll have at least a few moments of airtime in their svelte state, before they fill their trowzerz.

Sad indeed. My condolences.

O_W- Believe it or not, the stuff on GE is indeed andesite. And thanks for providing Joe's web addy. I left it out in my first reply above. flashclimber- Justin is no stranger to bolting, although his preferred medium is granite and granodiorite.

So why doesn't Re-create 68 just go to Costco and buy a gross of Depends and suit up?

look at the funny man!! Thank you! Thank You! Thank you! Remember to tip your waitresses! Hey, you guys have been great! I'll be here all week!

Justin, Where ya headed? And MattStan's right, the Tieton is predominantly andesite, depending upon your elevation. And Andy Fitz is probably the best resource on Tieton bolting that regularly peruses this board. Joe Puryear, too.

Now that's funny, Oly, even though the only thing I can read on The Blue Screen of Death is "WARNING"!

"An' if ya are, then let 'er rip!"

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!1

WOW! I bet that'll wake your ass up!

mutually exclusive I was hoping we could share. For you, Sherri, the probability is high. Statistically speaking, of course.

Oh dear me, no. Not fabrications at all. Perchance a little subterfuge and obfuscation, tho...
