  1. I also felt that the soundtrack was a perfect fit with that vid.
  2. That was very cool. Most definitely forward-worthy. :tup:
  3. Were the two CGI babes at 0:42 nekkid? Or was that just me wishing?
  4. Mr. Marceaux was very painful to watch. About as painful as that Miss Teen South Carolina map question a few years back... [video:youtube]
  5. Bummuh... too bad you couldn't catch some of the views.
  6. Saw that about the arrest, too, Gary, at this link. The reckless endangerment charge was because of BASE jumping, off the Deception Pass Bridge, as stated here. Were you in on this one, Gary?
  7. Saw this bumper sticker on a minivan full of rugrats last week: "Silence is golden, but duct tape is silver" Mebbe I should add this to the bumper stickers thread...
  8. 100 Yosemite/Tuolumne pitches in a week!! Holy shite, guys! Was there any time left at all for drinking beer?? That looks like that was a freak'n fantastic trip!

    whatever it is, do it quickly. it's all a downward slope from here on out Werd. RuMR sez you're in for a slow decomposing state... BTW, when is that milk carton gonna get to go pee?
  11. After reading Kurt's response, I couldn't help posting these little gems of Blake's creation... I want Tyvek and I want more Tyvek, dammit!
  12. Ah yes! Ben and Emily at Bob's Keg & Cork last Tuesday night. How could I have forgotten so quickly? Nice folks, both of them. It was me, Justin, and Matt, after the mountain rescue meeting. WTF were you, eh???
  13. Uhhhhhhhh, there was a movie on that site somewhere?? I never got past the little Russian hottie's tits...
  14. Yes, it is, Andy. Kevin, go drop some coin for the book. You're out of skewl now, ain'cha?
  15. YEE HAAAAAAAAAAWWWW!!!1 Another GE project falls thanks to JP and SR! Way to get on it, guys! And loved the TR with it's stylistic references to the DW oil spill fiasco. :tup:

    Putting animated GIFs in your signature is aid. Somebody had to say it... Good on ya, Philonius!
  17. "We aim to please, so you aim, too, please..." Clearly, someone needs to recalibrate their bombsite.

    Fun graphic

    I love The Rooster. WhoTF is he, anyway? He always seems to be right on top of any poultry-related thread. How does he do that? Good luck on your solo tomorrow. And don't go 'n git yerseff kilt, y'hear?

    Fun graphic

    It's how I roll. It avoids the unpleasantness so common elsewhere and I just find it humorous. Truthfully, no one gives a shit anyway - so I just post some banal-ass thing in spray. Once folks stop reading the thread and it's dead I go edit it with climbing info I would find interesting. It's put a few historical tidbits out there someone might search for or find interesting some day. Or not. Search on "Corn" for instance. Did you mean this, Bill?
  20. What I did with my kids that past weekend... Do I need to say that they enjoyed the ride immensely?

    Fun graphic

    Bill, Just curious... why are you posting what amounts to a TR (an amusing one at that, BTW) in this thread about fun graphics?? And why did you delete your earlier post about the oil spill barrel counter (which was cool, BTW) and replace it with your "Last post and testament" in this thread? Are you lost? Or are you still fuq'd up on that wine or what?

    Hey 'boner, Please don't tell me you sat and watched the whole bloody two fuq'n hours...
  23. If you like this sort of thing, and you enjoy the movie, then you should consider getting a copy of Eric Simonson's book, Ghosts of Everest. He's an IMG guide out of Rainier and he and some folks (Conrad Anker hooked up with Eric's team en route) repeated Mallory's route in 1999 in an attempt to prove his ascent (or not). They never found the camera. Eric gave his show for us (CWMR) in Yakima in 2003 as a fundraiser for our new truck. It was a great show, and he's a smashing guy. Give it a read!
  24. Consider this: Someone drops their belay device, and asks the question, "Do I need to buy a new one?" Typical response is, "Isn't your LIFE worth $25?" So most people consider the cost/benefit ratio and "buy the argument" and go buy a new one and retire the old one. So it never gets used again. Ever. So we never learn if it would have failed or not. Now, occasionally, someone will NOT replace the dropped device. Did it eventually fail? Or did he/she just get lucky all these years? We'll never know that either. I know it doesn't exactly answer your question, but I'd posit that that's the way it goes the majority of the time. YMMV.
