Well, on this page I was messing with Bryan then arranged to go climbing with Squishy while I was in Sacramento. Unfortunately we never hooked up and now I'm back in Scotland. Why are you posting here? Just to try to make a point? Are my conversational pots detracting from your e-climbing experience? Magnus is like the Animal House / Frat greeter. If the person mentions climbing - he asks them about climbing. If they are aguementative he takes them by the hand to the Soap Box and introduces them to Adam, dungus, PTC, curt, reno, and Toast. "Oh, you've already met. Great, then you'll have lots to talk about."

If you wanna start it... I'll end it. Porridge 4 LYFE!!!!! +1 for oatmeal. You can't keep grits in a sporran, they are nutritionally inferior, and less versatile. I do love me some grillard and grits, Polenta, or even whole hominy and I am not the biggest fan of oatmeal; but objectively oatmeal is superior.

Name: David Lee Age: 32 Location: Portland, Oregon I've only been climbing for a few months indoor. Trad: No. Sport: I've clipped a few. Aid: No. Favorite Food: Steak and Potatoes. Level: 5.7 Toprope and V3 Bouldering. Gear: Metolius Safe-Tech Harness, 5.10 Anasazi Shoes (Velcro) and a couple of biners and ATC's. Fav Website: www.Toolnavy.com Random Comment: The beatings will continue, until moral improves. Did I do that right? Hey everyone. I've been reading threads here for awhile, a lot of useful information and even more entertainment. I've taken an intro class and spent some noob time belaying. I'm taking a beginners technique class next week at my local gym. I climb about 3-4 days a week for 1-2 hours depending on how I feel. I'm trying to avoid injury while I let my body develop and adapt to climbing. Personally I was in the Army for a stretch and currently am an EMT in Oregon. Other miscellaneous debauchery I'm into include Jujutsu, Jeepin', drinking good beer and whiskey and hiking with the little lady. I look forward to meeting people as I grow into my climbing skin. *raises glass of Inversion IPA* Cheers!

My name is Mike, I'm 30 and have always been fascinated by climbing. I begain climbing when I was 12 or so w/ family friends, but stopped after a couple years of that. I recently began to dive into it again after my girlfriend and I took a class in Joshua Tree, CA. We live just over an hour away from the climbing there and are very excited to continue our climbing experiences. I enjoy climbing outdoors primarily, but have a couple indoor gyms within 20 minutes or so. I am primarily interested in traditional climbing, but not too interested in extremely high wall climbing. At this point, I am looking primarily at nothing more than a 4 or 5 pitch climb. Of course things change and so could my outlook, but like stated above, I'm a rookie and have little to no idea what I'm talking about yet....
