6 days for me. 
Though I did pull out the tools and file and sharpen things up just a bit. Also adjusted the new crampons and switched them from dual front point to mono front point. Those things are L-I-G-H-T!
My meager ice screw rack is ready to go, too.
In reply to: pay attention to the important stuff.
Sir, yes sir!
I hadn't. Must have been up to get a beer at the time. All I can say is "Damn!"
And by the way, you bringing an IU jersey to Ouray? Two games while we're there.

When Redpointron, Sharpie, and I did Treasure Falls, it was just beyond that last one. And, lest you forget, good sir: I am from Phoenix now. I've gotten soft, and my blood is much thinner. Heck, it got up to 60 today, and I was wearing a sweatshirt, long pants, and a touqe while climbing. In the gym. 
I remember that...You guys were dancing around like little girls in ballet class—I had to remind Reno not to cry because the tears would freeze to his face.

As I recall things, you didn't actually CLIMB, but instead walked around the gentle slope to the left, set up a top rope, and spent the day as our belay bitch.

As usual, your memory of events is inaccurate.

Well, when he's not trying to make his own version of "charcoal filtered" tequila, that is.

That'd be the one.
I probably won't be there as long as I'd expected, the cash flow isn't flowing. I'll be there till wednesday or something though.
We could use this thread as an indicator for recession, couldn't we?

Is that shirt required for admittance? I've got one. MaSheep gave it to me a few years ago, I thought it was a t-shirt. Is there a story?

Well, if you don't wear yours, we'll make you singe "The Girl is Mine" (Jackson/McCartney) on karaoke while dressed in drag.
Your call.
I Don't Understand The Way You Think
Saying That She's Yours Not Mine
Sending Roses And Your Silly Dreams
Really Just A Waste Of Time
[Chorus]
Because She's Mine
The Doggone Girl Is Mine
Don't Waste Your Time
Because The Doggone Girl Is Mine
Everybody sing.....
She's Mine, She's Mine
No, No, No, She's Mine
The Girl Is Mine, The Girl Is Mine
The Girl Is Mine, The Girl Is Mine
