ALLCAPS Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 THIS SATURDAY, X, Y, Z, AND I WENT TO CLIMB ABC MOUNTAIN. I GOT UP AT 6:47 AND MET THE REST OF THE GANG AT THE PARK AND RIDE AT 7:36. THEN WE STOPPED AND GOT COFFEE. I GOT A DOUBLE TALL AMERICANO, WITH ROOM. I PUT IN ONE CREAM PACKET AND GAVE IT A TRY...BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH! SO, I WENT AHEAD AND ADDED ANOTHER CREAM PACKET....AND GAVE IT ANOTHER GO. WHEW! THIS TIME IT TASTED REALLY GOOD, SO I WAS GOOD TO GO. X SAW MY TROUBLES AND JUST ORDERED A LATTE, BUT Y DIDN'T SEE THE FIASCO. WE SHOUTED BETA TO HIM, BUT HE INSISTED ON THE DOUBLE TALL AMERICANO. WATCHING HIM GO THROUGH THE PROCESS OF ADDING NOT TWO, BUT THREE CREAM PACKETS WAS UNBEARABLE. LUCKILY, Z DOESN'T DRINK COFFEE, AND ORDERED A TEA. ALSO, WE DEFINITELY WERE GLAD TO HAVE THE PROVIDED CUP INSULATORS...THAT STUFF IS HOT! NEXT WE HAD TO STOP AND GET GAS, AS THE TANK WAS ONLY 1/2 FULL. Y LAUNCHED INTO A DIABTRIBE ABOUT HOW IT WAS ACTUALLY JUST 1/2 EMPTY, BUT WE KNOW Y TOO WELL...HE WAS JUST MESSING WITH US. IT WAS DECISION TIME...REGULAR? UNLEADED? SUPER-UNLEADED? WE HAD A COIN...BUT IT DIDN'T HAVE THREE SIDES! LUCKILY THE PERSON WAITING IN LINE BEHIND US KNEW EXACTLY WHICH GAS WE NEEDED...BUT HE DIDN'T NEED TO GET ALL HUFFY ABOUT IT! IN THE GAS STATION WE LOADED UP ON SOME SLIM JIMS AND BIG LEAGUE CHEW. X AND Z WENT TO THE BATHROOM AT THE SAME TIME, DON'T ASK...DON'T TELL! THE IT WAS Y'S TURN TO USE THE REST ROOM. WE ALL GOT INTO THE CAR AND DROVE OUT OF THE GAS STATION PARKING LOT...BUT NONE OF US KNEW HOW TO GET BACK ON THE FREEWAY! AFTER A FEW CARS HONKED AT US FOR DRIVING TO SLOW, AND WE PULLED OVER SO THAT Y COULD SWITCH DRIVING RESPOSIBLITY WITH THE QUICKER REACTING X, ONLY TO BE REPLACED AS DRIVER 5 MINUTES LATER WITH A VERY ANGRY Z, WE GOT ONTO THE FREEWAY HEADED THE WRONG DIRECTION. SEVERAL EXITS LATER WE WE HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, AFTER A STOP SO THAT I COULD USE THE RESTROOM AT ANOTHER GAS STATION, AND SO THAT I COULD BUY A FEW MORE SUPPLIES (A MAGAZINE, A TIRE PRESSURE GUAGE, AND SOME GUM). AFTER GETTING THE NECESSARY SUPPLIES, WE HEADED UP TO CLIMB ABC MOUNTAIN. WE GOT LOST ON THE APPROACH AND NEVER MADE IT TO THE ROUTE. BACK AT THE CAR WE ENJOYED HOSTESS DING DONGS AND RED BULLS. X GOT INTO A FIGHT WITH Z, BUT Y INTERVENED. I TOOK PICTURES OF THE FIGHT, BUT Z PULLED THE FILM OUT AND EXPOSED IT (AND SPIT ON ME) SO SADLY THERE ARE NO PICTURES OF OUR TRIP. GEAR NOTES: CUP INSULATORS BIG LEAGUE CHEW Quote
tomtom Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 If you prewarm your cup by filling it with hot water, your coffee will stay hotter, longer. Works with both lattes and americanos. Quote
ALLCAPS Posted February 27, 2006 Author Posted February 27, 2006 WTF??!! WHO MOVED MY TR TO SPRAY??? Quote
Dechristo Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 If you prewarm your cup by filling it with hot water, your coffee will stay hotter, longer. I tried that once, it didn't do jack for my coffee, but it kept my nuts warm. Quote
Dru Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Is ABC Mountain next to Liberty Mountain, Brokeback Mountain, Misty Mountain and so on? Quote
minx Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 i thought it was near the south central north cascades alpine lakes wilderness area Quote
ALLCAPS Posted February 27, 2006 Author Posted February 27, 2006 I'D TELL YOU WERE ABC MOUNTAIN IS BUT WE ARE TRYING FOR THE 7TH KNOWN ASCENT OF THIS MOUNTAIN. I WOULD TELL YOU WHO X,Y, AND Z ARE, BUT THE POST HERE AND DID NOT WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TR. Quote
ken4ord Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 Thanks ALLCAPS great TR, there is few CCer's that need this TR, but probably still don't get it. Get it, got it, good. Just in case you didn't get it, try again Quote
olyclimber Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 you wouldn't happen to be associated with the Big Balla, would you? Quote

billcoe Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 You suck, ALLCAPS Mos you're kidding? Someone showed up and displayed some origonality and genious. Seriously great stuff. Thanks all caps. BTW, I think that ABC Mountain might be code for the back area of the climbing gym: Nolse - you backing me on that? Quote
G-spotter Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 origonality and genious. Are these two planets from star Trekk?? Quote
Mos_Chillin Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 More importantly, why does Bill have Boulder Boy Wonder as his avatar pic? Quote
