  1. Or we could both be right...
  2. What a predicament!
  3. Why? We've just hit 5 pages! Only 5 more and we can start talking about global warming... Oh, and Here goes - Don't plan on buying anymore crampons. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2017190166_apwashrinkingglaciers.html You have to wait another 5 pages before you can do that, obwan...
  4. Probably, but it would be totally shot after one fall. Then what, smart guy? I think you missed the joke, E-rock. I think you did, Sobo. I think we both can play that game, E-rock.

    I'm sorry for your loss, d00d, but I can't stop laughing about that...
  10. Stealing that for my next autosig, after I tire of the current one...

  13. Reminds me of a story back when I used to skydive... I was still a n00b at it, but not a total n00b. Another guy, n00bier than me, went out the door before me, and his chute malfunctioned. The jumpmaster had the pilot go into a steep bank so he could watch the guy, and most of us in the plane got a good look at the n00b rocketing his way to terra firma. Finally, the n00b cut away his shit chute and his reserve popped open, and he was fine under a fully deployed canopy. We all breathed a sigh of relief for the guy, especially the other n00bs in the plane that were supposed to go before me. Since I was headed to a higher altitude for my jump, I sat back and relaxed, thinking the other n00bs in the stick were going ahead of me. To my shock and surprise, the jumpmaster turns around, looks me straight in the eye and says, "Get in the door. You're next." "But..." "Get in the fucking door, sobo. You're going next!" So out I went... He came over to me after he landed and told me that he wanted someone with more experience, no matter how little much more that might be, to go ahead of the other n00bs to inspire some confidence. Other than the jumpmaster and the pilot, the only guy that fit the bill on that jump was me. So I said thanks, and asked him, "What if my chute had malfunctioned, too? Then what?" He clapped me on the back and bellowed, "One problem at a time, sobo. One problem at a time..."
  14. Bushwhackers Club??? Say "hi" to DoxManDude from sobo, will ya? OKTHXBAI!
  15. Now that's good advice. +1
  16. Save this one for submission to this year's Photo Contest in the Humor category. Looks like it was a fun trip.
  17. Hey, John, you should link this TR into the 2011/12 Washington Ice Conditions thread (in the Ice Climbing forum) so more folks can get a peak at what you and Kyle got on. Just a suggestion. I'd do it for ya, but it ain't my TR...
  18. STD, the gift that keeps on giving...
  19. This kind of party balloon...?? I ain't touchin' that shit...
  20. No judgment. Just vigilant observation...
  21. While I agree with this assessment as a great vehicle to learning, I think at his current level of (in)experience, the more seasoned folks here might not want to take him along on volcano climbs in the dead of winter. I expect, though, that come spring/early summer, after the weather starts to moderate a bit more, he'll have his hands full with willing partners. Keep the stoke alive, Chris. Your time's comin'...
  22. I see remedial math and a counting skilz review are in order for you...
  23. And you are not immune to my gaze, either, Tyson. Just so you know, I'm watching you, too... watching... always watching...
  24. Just a hint... if you're really new to mountaineering, you'll probably not find a lot of the more experienced folks here willing to take you up the volcanoes right now (winter season). It's a whole 'nother ball game up there in winter. I suspect that you'll find a whole lot of partners willing to rope up with you, take you out on a few glaciers, and teach you some things when late May and June rolls around, though. Keep up the stoke, Chris. Your time's coming...
  25. Ohhhhh, don't be so sure... We're just waiting for your next post... Waiting... always waiting... and watching... always watching...
