You Might Be A Mountain Climber If --

[allthumbs]

You have ever frozen your lips to an ice screw while blowing an ice plug at your partner.

"just say no to crack " means setting a bolt instead of using a cam.

You have ever clipped a 3 ounce set of keys to your belt with a 25 kn. carabiner.

You own a $75 dress suit and a $1000 dollar Goretex suit.

Your wife has AMS instead of PMS.

You have ever used an ice axe to chop weeds in the garden.

Your favorite shoes look like Nike ballet slippers.

A Mexican bus driver has ever had to open his window because of the way you smelled.

You have more summit pictures than wedding pictures.

You've ever had icicles hanging from any part of your face.

You've pee'd more than 3 liters in one night.

You can pronounce Popocatepetl correctly more than once in a row.

You say your girlfriend has a great rack and your not referring to her bust size.

You've ever fallen so far that you've run out of adrenaline before you ran out of rope.

You say "Namaste" instead of "Hello".

You like the smell of burning yak dung.

You hear the name "Hillary" and think of Everest instead of Mrs. Clinton and White House scandals.
