What do you think the ratio of single men or women (pick your poison) to real climbers is in any given city?
1/40,000, 1/50,000, more...?
You do the math on the odds of finding a compatable partner in the respective pools.

Not the best quality routes (especially at Rattlesnake!), but I have over a thousand to choose from. Niagra sounds nice; I've always wanted to visit there anyway. What's the weather like in late Oct early Nov? Wear a sweater. And a TOQUE but...but...what you said above ^^ What is a toque? Is it something you do with a wrench? Yes, you use the wrench to screw yourself tighten your nuts, and it's called a toque |

I almost climbed the choss today...then I went hiking instead. Probably a good call. It certainly was a close one. A near miss, if you will I saw you life flash before my eyes. Wait, no. That was mine. I think it was called living. The only thing flashing before my eyes right now is visions of me still sleeping.
Wait, no. I was on lunch shift too. Fucked.

Impenetrable shrubberies halted progress 200 yards from the top. Bushwhack harder! heh heh heh... This reminds me of a few weeks ago when I tricked the new guys in to doing some bushwhacking to climb the SPLITTER cracks at Old Rag. It was nonstop bitching the whole way down and back up. Which totally made my day of course. I was laughing so hard I completely forgot to suffer. And the best part is, after listening to me talk the climbs up all day, they were so psyched to try them that by the time we reached the approach they thought the whole thing was their idea. Bryan, you are my kind of asshole. Woo! And the climbing truly is SPLITTER so I feel justified this time around. At least partially, I suppose we could have waited until late fall like most folks...

Yes, we'll stick Bryan on you. And once Bryan is stuck on you you're fucked. Though judging from your profile and post in the virtual boyfriend thread that may not be far from you aims.
Wow Sungam... are you stalking me?

Nice.
I was actually still asleep at 10. Pretty stoked about that fact.
