Maybe I should have said "Art, you are just and fair, and we will call it 12b."?

As in
-I'm not reading all teh posts of on the pages since I left work Thursday till today.
-4wheeling in the 4Runner left it muddy with worn out breaks, but was hella fun. 45km of off-road trails will leave you with some wrench turning after a long weekend.
-went climbing in there too.
-Fireball is a Cinnamon Corn Whiskey
And WTF is with Americans and the word "huh" ?
Clear as mud?

Just a convenient happenstance really. The down side is that I don't want to waste my partners' time when they aren't climbing at that level, nor would be able to do anything at that location. So, I will more than likely be soloing there for a bit. You need to cultivate a subman. A subman would be eager to go and belay you on your projects there and climb the bottoms of them. And hope to someday be as good as you. I'm the ropegun of the local group. The EC5.7M?

Who am I kidding, I have no friggin clue... Its a link up. The first crux is right off the ground then you go into the crux of the 12b. You get some pretty good jugs between the two but it isn't the best rest and you can never really fully shake the pump. You go into the second crux way more pumped than if you do the normal start. It doesn't really matter to much. Its just another route to add into the rotation. Its just kinda nice to have a gage on my training.

The french rating system actually works better for sport climbing grades. humm, u r all rong.... cept the part about french grades more accurately discribing the the difficulty of sport routes. So, if you are a sprayer, you would have to call it 13a. Thats what jt512 would grade it. Cuz thats what he does to all of my routes. By the fact that you are hear talking about grades, leads me to believe.... spray!!!1 Personally, I've got to figure that the 12a and the 12b are both over rated by a grade to a grade and a half. So I would rate the link up 7a+ and let the posers whine. I'd have to send it to be sure, but it is likely a pretty gud guess. Nothing worse than having real guys walk your soft grades and down rating them...

You could probably get away with .12c, I'm guessing. That's good that you are in good shape right now, it's still so early. I haven't climbed much at all the last 2 weeks, hopefully I won't have lost too much. Looking forward to next weekend at Seneca to finish up my ticklist (hopefully). I really, really hope the weather is nice, it will be the last time I climb there for who knows how long. yore rong! Its not good that I'm in pretty good shape?

Cross posting from the other thread...
This, yes this is how my afternoon is going:
the_climber is having a hell of an afternoon! wrote: In other news I was at Canadian Tire at lunch time pricing out some stuff, and walking back to my truck... W T F ! Some punk was reafing on the back window to try and break in to steal my tool bag! Had my cell phone in my hand to call the cops, but fuck he was going at it and of all the people in the parking lot not a dam one of them was doing anything! Nothing! Not so much as a "hey buddy what gives?"! Ran up behind him and checked him into the tailgate. The fucker took a swing at me, so I knocked him the f*ck out! Out cold! One hit! Right the f*ck out! Gave my contact info to the security guy who said he'd handle everything with the cops... expecting a call tonight to give a statement. Security dude claims it happens more ofthen that you'd think in that parking lot. To say the least I'm still a little bit jacked right now. My hand is a wee bit sore right now. If I wasn't at work I'd be drinking right about now. |

Yet another reason not to live in Canadia.
In all seriousness, that's some crazy shit. Can't believe nobody did anything. That punk is lucky you didn't have the dog or axe on you...

If he turned around and tried to charge you with assault or laid a law suit on you for decking him. Aholes like that are stupid and think they can.
Too many witnesses for that. A few of them gave their contact info to security dude too. It's pretty clear cut. He was breaking in, I checked him he swung THEN I swung, shitty thing for him... he missed, I didn't. All eyes were on the acting right from the moment I checked him into the tailgate to pin him.
