I can confirm that it's still there. Saw it this morning coming back from Seattle. Quite murky up there. [ 04-27-2002, 01:31 PM: Message edited by: sobo ]

Try calling the horsey outfit just short of the parking lot. Can't remember the name, but a phone book still works... ...sobo

Paul, Go here: http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=10;t=000471 $200, and I 'll pay the postage to NYC. Can't lose. ...sobo [ 04-25-2002, 05:48 PM: Message edited by: sobo ]

Fine. Buy them from REI if you want to, and you'll pay $15 more than what I want for them, PLUS you'll be paying 8% sales tax, shipping, blah blah blah. So, if you buy them from the Death Star, you'll be into it for about $250. Or you can give me the $200 bones and i'll send them to you for free. DO THE MATH! ...sobo

Ok, i'm either really fuckin' drunk after work, or that was really funny.

Better yet, deflate his thermarest by using it to fill up your butt with air. Then not only will the valve taste like your ass, but you'll have no trouble farting at him all night long! ...sobo

Ya know, Dru, that reply sets itself up well to a whole host of nasty thoughts and visions that this group could feed upon "ad nauseum"... But i won't go there. Ladies and gentlemen, dinner is served. ...sobo

In men's gymnastics, particularly the rings, the Iron Cross is a move in which the gymnast suspends himself from the rings with his arms at 90 degrees to his sides, with both legs together and pointing to the floor. Picture yourself being crucified. Looks the same, probably feels the same, too. ...sobo

I'm with erik, Greg W, and Bug on this one. And just when I thought I was getting rich (as specialed), I went and got married. Now I'm doomed to a life of tied slingage forever. Oh, the horror!

We will mostly be on climbs below 5.6 so it shouldn't interfere with any climbers from this board. It sounds like you can climb 5.7 and above after all the chest pounding I have read Now you've done it! Gone and spilled a whole bucket of chum in the water...

quote: Originally posted by klenke: I'd like to add a Farside I remember from a while back:Two loggers are sitting on a tree they've just felled eating their lunches. Behind them stretching into the distance are lots of other recently felled trees (just their trunks) and their stumps.One logger says to the other (paraphrased), "Yeah, I know what you mean Vern, the outdoors just calls to me." There was another Far Side where a man and his young son had just cut down a large tree and were inspecting the plane of the cut. The father says to his son, "See here, son? Right there is where this big feller survived a forest fire." Where's the Irony Police?

I, too, have had a bad experience with the Bellevue Marmot store over trying to return a pair of gore-tex pants a while back. I have them for sale now. Nothing wrong with them. Go here for story: http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=10&t=000471

ok, ok, at the risk of being highly embarrassed, incurring massive flamage, being guilty of generally intervening where I don't belong, and adding yet another reply to this thread, i just got to know... Who is Dan Larson, and why do you guys rag on him about how he sucks so much?

Should get an Honorable Mention at the Darwin Award Ceremony. Armageddon!!!

Let's all get together and form a club that only has members that wouldn't be members of a club that would have us as members.

Stash several brewskis in your partner's pack. When you stop for the night and he pulls them out and says, "Heeyyyyyy, what's up with this?" respond by saying, "At least it's "light" beer." If he still gives you shit, tell him that you drew the line at him hauling up the ice. credit goes to George Kenndey, in Eiger Sanction [ 04-09-2002: Message edited by: sobo ]

Norm: "Yeah, sure Woody. I'm gonna need something to do between the first and the third." How many climbers can relate to that, eh?
