:lmao: I am so cheered up now. Thanks lI1|1!, that was fucking hilarious! Whew! :breathe normally again: So, the vid of the guy who crashed and burned... did he base jump off a dam or something? It looked sorta like Hoover or the one out of that James Bond flick with Pierce Brosnan, but I didn't see any water. Any clues?

Guy's in for some serious suffering.

Imagine seeing this while climbing the Matterhorn
sobo replied to gslater's topic in Climber's Board
While it was not the Matterhorn, a similar thing happened to me back in my early climbering days. I had just topped out on the Gendarme (5.4) of Seneca Rocks (before it fell over in late 1987) and gave the obligatory "standing yodel" down to the visitors/touron center before anchoring in to the summit bolts (it was considered poor form to yodel after tying in) to belay my partner up. Whilst belaying my partner, I looked down the valley and noticed a strange plume of smoke hanging in the air. I discounted it, and went back to chattering with my partner. A dull roar began to fill the air. I turned back around to witness what I believe to be a WV Air National Guard A-6(??) scream by below me so close that I could practically read the pilot's name on his helmet. He looked up at me, waved, peeled sharply away from the rock and shot up the valley, "gunning the engines" and splitting my eardrums as he departed. My partner was shitting his pants wondering WTF was going on up there, as the Gendarme was seriously trembling from the sound/shock wave. I was screaming unintelligible rantings about how cool it was what I just saw. The Gendarme fell down a few years later. A sad day that was, indeed. To acquaint readers with the Seneca Rocks custom of the Unanchored Standing Yodel particular to Gendarme ascents, refer to the photo below of Gaston Rebuffat in the Alps. The feeling of vertigo is mindnumbing... -
Rocky Mountain Oysters, the other white meat.

No, no, I wasn't dissing the canvas shorts. The reinforced butt is a nice touch of class. They were just a bit of a let-down after the "garter-harness" you sported in the "Nice Climbing guys" thread. Oh shit, now I've gone and done it. I've created a monster. Sherri = cyberstalker?? Of course, I'm playin' wicha, chil'

What is with you and this word? "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
-
WHAT!!!!1?? You don't like my first-issue Patagucci canvas climbering shorts, complete with the double reinforced ass? Clearly, you don't know haute couture when you see it. Pffft! Amateur.

My first year of ice climbering, ca 1985 or so. I couldn't wait for winter!

cindy666, You are trying too damn hard to post like the "original" cindy, but I gotta admire your attitude. Keep it up, though; it's fun having you around to mock the original.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! That's the funniest shit I've heard in a while. :coffee spraying out of my nose:

I suppose it was only a matter of time before we'd have a cindy66 wannabe contest. Cascadeclimbers.com... my, how far the mighty have fallen.

I've heard that brand of sarcasm before... cindy666 = archenemy?? edited to add emphasis on the third "6" to clearly distinguish my belief that cindy666 is NOT the same person as cindy66.

Nice climbing Arch: Ee-yup! In days of yore, before I started wearing a... helmet. ivan: That was the original intent, but my strategy was flawed. I was never so gripped on a 5.9 in my life before that day. I will say this, though: "I am happy to have claimed the FNA of Midnight Fright. I'm sure you catch the nuance. Dru: I know you're going to be along any time now to comment upon the camera tilt. I DIDN'T TAKE THE PICTURE!!!!1

Typically, we put the comma immediately after a word, then the space. And you only need three of the little "dots" to form what is commonly known as an ellipsis. You might be a redneck?

You guys believe everything you see on the interweb?? Check out my cool site for great cheap gear!

Name that move? The Binding Release. The juxtaposition is palpable.

I love his stuff. His rendition of the periodic table is priceless. 'course, there weren't 103 elements yet, back then.
