You know...I remember when climbers were tough, individualistic, hard men (& women).

Now it's, "Waaahh, Waahhhh, Waaahhh, My feelings are hurt. Someone make me feel better."

Well I come from Montana. The land where men are men and so are the women. We live hard. We play hard. If someone doesn't make it - Oh well. Too bad for him. Why, I don't even remember ever seeing an elephant in Montana; much less an elephant with a ribbon around its neck and a big red bow on its head. I've never seen such a big bunch of crybabies in my life.

LOOK AT YOURSELVES!

All weepy-eyed and bawling. Get ahold of yourselves! My God! You're climbers not ballerinas!!

Montana ???

"I think I'll move to Montana soon,
to grow my lowly dental floss.
Raisin' it up, and waxin' it down,
in little white boxes I can sell up town.
I wouldn't have no boss...
It'd just be me, and my dental floss."

That's right!!! See!?!

Adam's not bawling. He's.....ummmm....singing about dental floss. Hmmm.

Well...at least he's singing like a man. That's right. Only real men sing about floss.

I think.

Robert... It takes both of them, with rather large shovels, to dig you.
