WHy do you think it's called a cockpit?

I read recently that his wife left him and took the kids. "...too much time spent training, not enough with the fam..." or something to that effect. Rough biz, being the best. But ya gotta follow your dreams.

bad karma, dood.

Ask TG what he thinks of Enterprise or Joseph. Now there's a nice view of some moun-taaanes. And there's good beer to be had there, too!

Thus endeth the lesson. Class dismissed.

World travelling

Hey, what about Yakivegas, the Palm Springs of Washington? Spraysuit on? - check! the blood is in the water...

Sorry to say it, kitten, but that was just plain idiotic. While I don't normally subscribe to paternalistic law enforcement objectives (like speed limits and no parking zones), it's a proven fact that wearing a seat belt reduces injuries/fatalities in auto accidents. Add an $86 hit for not wearing one, and it's just plain stupid not to. Do the math!

What would a game of Wheel of Fortune be like with Graybeard, Redbeard and Bluebeard the Pirates as contestants? Pat: Graybeard, would you like to buy a vowel? GB: RRRRRRRRRRR! Pat: No, sorry, "r" is not a vowel. Try again. GB: RRRRRRRRRRRRR! ad naseum...

I find that is also the case with me. Coincidence? I think not. I think I work better under pressure, so I wait for shit to get way behind before I can really focus on anything.

The view from my desk? Four walls plastered with MS Project schedules that all say the same thing... You're waaaay f%#$ing behind! Quit spraying!

classic! love that old skewl form of humor.

RuMR, I was going to ask if you had "muscle spams" again, but I see you deftly deleted the double post...

erik's into wool, not down.

That was exactly what I was thinking. Thanks for the pic, Kiwi. Now I just have to grow the nutz to actually use it!

How'd you pull that one off???

Work Release Program-violating

OK, just so I'm clear (having not had the choads to actually use the EDK yet) on how to tie this thingie. It's a simple single overhand knot that starts with both ends lying next to each other with ends matched up equally (not pointing at each other as in a grapevine/fisherman's) and no back-up? It is NOT a "granny" knot nor a square knot. Do I have this right, kidz?

That's texplorer's auto sig. Auto sig quotes, no matter how profound, must be considered inadmissable. Case closed.

Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, Canada, Mexico, England, Vietnam, Taiwan, and every state in the USA except Hawaii. Spent 5 years in Italy as a grade schooler/junior high kid, and then returned as a HS student. Best time of my life! Traveled all over W Europe by train on weekends and school breaks. Got room and board at monasteries and churches in exchange for alter boy services at Mass on Sunday morning before heading back home. My folks were really cool about it, altho my mom freaked out every weekend when I left.

My parents, after many years, have finally gotten used to the fact that I will continue to climb, young family or no. They still live in VA, so we don't talk about it much anymore. However, when winter rolls around, they still get all stressed out over my ice climbing. Rightly so, I guess...

Where's the line start??

Barney's Wall is vaguely familiar. Falls? Refresh me memory, SVP.
