Dr_Trad_Ablazing Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Battecage? Nonsense! The Doctor has nothing but admiration for his colleague, DFA. In fact, the Doctor feels quite strongly that DFA has managed to almost singlehandedly slow the (he's afraid) inevitable devolution of cascadeclimbers.com to cascadesprayers.com (it has been some time, don’t you agree, since this board has really been about climbing?). And just as DFA has at least briefly tasted both the fruits and fears of placing one’s own protection, so has this Doctor (certainly a gear specialist at heart) enjoyed the freedom of concentrating solely on the hardships of upward progress while knowing that his safety is assured by the in situ shiny bolt hanger that awaits his eager quickdraw. The Doctor would, if truth be told, be delighted to someday team up with his esteemed colleague for a day of mixed trad and sport endeavors. DFA could teach the Doctor the finer points of “scumming” with one’s foot, and the Doctor could perhaps demonstrate to DFA some of the finer points of placing nuts in opposition. Whoa! Now that the Doctor has actually said that, he surmises that some observers might describe such a pairing, should it ever grace the crags, as “nuts in opposition.” Hahahahaha! HaHa! Ha! Dr. Trad “I come in Peace” Ablazing Quote
icegirl Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 yeah, gotta change your writing style if you're gonna have avatars Quote
icegirl Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 hey there! Got your X-mas shopping done yet? Quote
allthumbs Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Yep, I just left Love Seasons...you were the last on my list. Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 yeah, gotta change your writing style if you're gonna have avatars No, I think not. I do believe this DTA to be a wonderful knock-off, replete with mannerisms here-to-fore only noted in the presence of the good doctor himself. Bravo, DTA, Sexual Chocolate salutes you! Quote
iain Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 does everyone here often set up their first piece this way out of principle? Just wondering. I often find myself not bothering and just giving it a good outward yank to check. If my belayer is way the hell out there I'll do it. Quote
snoboy Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 Not neccesarily in opposition, but I sure like to know it's good for an outward pull. A nice cam, or a perfect nut is all I ask. Quote
iain Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 HAHAAA! Brought a thread that belonged in Spray back from spray and into its rightful place, the main board. Gimme a medal guys. Quote
iain Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 I'll take anything I can get at this point. Quote
Cairns Posted December 12, 2002 Posted December 12, 2002 the Doctor feels quite strongly that DFA has managed to almost singlehandedly slow the (he's afraid) inevitable devolution of cascadeclimbers.com to cascadesprayers.com (it has been some time, don't you agree, since this board has really been about climbing?) "Devolution is an imperfect process." Welcome. Or were you left behind with us by your smarter better-behaved peers? Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted December 12, 2002 Posted December 12, 2002 This, friends, colleagues, and hangers-on, is a sham, a chamois, a chemise. A shell game, a charade, charlatanery, at the very least shady. For shame! Quote
iain Posted December 12, 2002 Posted December 12, 2002 so is that guy limited to perfectly-straight roads or what? Quote
Skisports Posted December 12, 2002 Posted December 12, 2002 looks like he has a handle bar so he can turn... I imagine Quote
Roger Posted December 12, 2002 Posted December 12, 2002 This, friends, colleagues, and hangers-on, is a sham, a chamois, a chemise. A shell game, a charade, charlatanery, at the very least shady. For shame! You forgot chicanery... Relax, doc... I believe it is said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Quote
iain Posted December 12, 2002 Posted December 12, 2002 yeah but don't you have to have something to turn against? would a handle bar let you turn a unicycle I don't think so. Quote
