WMD, it is up to you to tell us everything, since biner is probably lost on some backroad that her GPS thinks will take her to I-70 or something. Nothing really to tell. They aren't done yet, apparently. Although, he's supposed to move to Seattle or something. I'll let biner give you the full presentation. Ah, to be young and confused again... Curt
Not that I'm any less confused, just less young...
dammit.

They'll realize they took a wrong turn when they drive into Lake Erie. hahaha Probably not too far off the truth. Reference to The Office?
I don't really watch TV.

So a good climbing buddy of mine got hitched this weekend.
We've been buddies since college and have done mostly ice and moutaineering stuff together.
He was also the architect behind this masterpiece:
True to form, he and his bride dragged 50 guests up a 1.5 mile hike close to the summit of Bald Mountain in Maine.
After scouting out a spot, they each changed into full wedding attire while the guests stayed in thermals.
Not a bad view!
They did it!
After the ceremony, and getting itchy for food and drink, Andy didn't bother changing back into hiking gear, the hardcore young man that he is.
We descended to a great party and homemade food (he's a farmer). Of course, we made sure to wreck his car.
Congrats buddy!!

I think that I'll have to close the cutains and pretend that we're not home. There are never many kids that come to the door anyway, and I never bothered getting pumpkins or candy. I also don't really have time to get stuff set up either, I'm busy trying to lay a bunch of pavers in the backyard. I would make Nathan do it except that he's gone climbing. That's right, he has a million unfinished projects and I'm the one staying at home working today.  Too bad, I can see him having a blast chasing kids around with his ice tools like Mike Myers. We don't get many kids coming by. Our neighbourhood is a lot of young familys and a ton of retired people, so we only get a few young kids being brought out by their parents. Last year her picked up some beer for the parents, but I think only one guy took one. BTW - Nathan still isn't home. I told him that I really needed his help with cutting the pavers and I was hoping that he could help me out today. With daylight saving time tonight I'm fucked for getting his help on the path next week too. That's right, next week is DLS. Wake up = dark Get home = dark It's getting colder, rock season is ending. Goddammit, I hate this time of year. What? Rock season is just beginning?  Curt Want to switch coasts? Let me think a second. I was out climbing today in 70 degrees without a cloud in the sky--I think not. Curt

In addition to often giving bad-beta, they really encourage you not to pay attention to outside surroundings, so you don't remember routes when you do them again. Just one more fucking square screen that we're spending our lives staring at. This past weekend, on the way to the NRG, the GPS told me to take a right turn at a middle-of-nowhere intersection, which I did not remember, and I thought I was supposed to go straight. I wound up doing a rolling stop through the intersection and getting a fucking ticket. While clausti will be quick to point out that this was my own fault and not the GPS's, I am going to say that I would have not mad a right turn, and thus would have made a complete stop, if I had not been staring at the fucking thing. DAMN YOU GPS! In funner news, BINER! Come to Columbus, we will wine you, dine you, and then thrown you down into the catpee basement! We haven't even changed the sheets since caughtinside stayed! WOO! That sucks about the ticket! Wining/dining Biner will also mean wining/winding her mom and the luberjack.
That BITCH!!!
Seriously,
I'll admit, I really didn't have much respect for Biner. She hasn't really done much to try and earn any. but this just makes her slink to a gnu low.
The Lumberjack?
Seriously?
That girl has serious issues dude. Be happy with the bit you got and be happy you got away.

Either get with the program or get the fuk out of my sight!
So you think I should bolt it even though I can barely do only two of the moves and can't even come close to the others?

I think that I'll have to close the cutains and pretend that we're not home. There are never many kids that come to the door anyway, and I never bothered getting pumpkins or candy. I also don't really have time to get stuff set up either, I'm busy trying to lay a bunch of pavers in the backyard. I would make Nathan do it except that he's gone climbing. That's right, he has a million unfinished projects and I'm the one staying at home working today. Too bad, I can see him having a blast chasing kids around with his ice tools like Mike Myers. We don't get many kids coming by. Our neighbourhood is a lot of young familys and a ton of retired people, so we only get a few young kids being brought out by their parents. Last year her picked up some beer for the parents, but I think only one guy took one. BTW - Nathan still isn't home. I told him that I really needed his help with cutting the pavers and I was hoping that he could help me out today. With daylight saving time tonight I'm fucked for getting his help on the path next week too. That's right, next week is DLS. Wake up = dark Get home = dark It's getting colder, rock season is ending. Goddammit, I hate this time of year. What? Rock season is just beginning? Curt Want to switch coasts? Let me think a second. I was out climbing today in 70 degrees without a cloud in the sky--I think not. Curt That must be a nice change from the 110 you have had the last 6 months
No shit.

Perhaps you should let him drink and get him some pussy so he will see what he would be missing out on? He has already been there, done that. I think he is just looking for something dangerous to prove himself. you know any firefighters he could hang out with? the tech center attached to my high school had a firefighter in training program, and i took the first year of it. we learned about the chemistry and physics of structure fires, strategies, getting into firefighter gear (under a minute or you fail the course), and crawling around blindfolded in a hot building on our hands and knees to rescue whoever the instructor tapped and said "your'e dead." oh and sprayed stuff with firehoses. wuz a good time. l
Don't know any firefighters. I have asked him about becoming a fireman though. I think it would be a great choise. He didn't seem to interested, I am going to revisit this choise though. I'll have to check out his school and see if there is some program.

Looks like a pretty crappy area. You still seem to be climbing pretty well for working so much. I am falling in that pic. I didn't RP the root. I did onsight from the ground to the first bolt, from the last bolt to the anchors, and also the big ghey rest in the middle. Yeah but you're still working .13b for kirssake, and you're sending .13a on the weekend. Says who? Sides, the ghey rest is supposed to cut the grade a letter and then I figured out a better way to do the hardest move, so its probably only 12+ I have spies everywhere. Ah, this is the route with the ghey rest. If it was only 12+, why didn't you send?  A lot of things go it to sending a difficult route.... Sometimes you sess, sometimes you get sessed. #6. Now lets talk about any of your big sends? oh that's rite, you haven't actually sent anything. I've sent lots of things. Why you has to liez. Why? I never lie! I've sent tons of things. They are just mostly 5.11 and under. I'm sorry to have to be the won to break the news to ewe... '5.11 and under' aren't really sends. sorry. I hate being a has-ben. I'm comfortable in my "never-was" status. Well of the two... I personaly prefer to be a washed up has been. Speaking of which, I know I forgot to mention it, the route I went to and then went back to, cuz I thought I could get it.... I didn't get. It's probibly because I'm allwashedup, but I prefer to think, the route was really fuking difficult. I'm pretty fuking driven though, I'll be back in the spring. This time save the chips until after you tag the route.
Try to pay attention.... CI failz cuz of teh gressy chips. I fell off cuz my skirt blew up in front of my face just as I was tossing to the hold.

Out joyriding while the oldman was pretending to be throwing down. *shakes head sadly* That buy is bound for the big house. Little Jack is doing better. School werk is gud, has been staying out of trouble and doing his chores without a problem. Thing is... now he thinks he wants to become a Army Ranger. I don't think he actually knows, that guys get killed in wars. Wish he would just head off to college and then decide what he wants to do. Bad choice that is. Look how well it worked out for mr. tillman. I know. Trick is, how do you convince a 16 year old that war is not really as easy or safe as the video games he plays. But the commercials make it look so inviting!  heh... it'z tru. When I was Jack's age, all we saw on tv was the bodies comming home from Viet Nam, didn't 'look so inviting' when I was growing up. I also don't remember recruters walking the hall in my high school like Jack has in his school and I grew up in a military town. That would have been teh suck! It's a pity they don't do the same thing these days. They need to show the sacrifice that's made every single day, even if that's the pre-deployment farewell tears or the flag-draped containers. Those recruiters are like car salesmen... slimey and full of themselves... but I'm sure a tricky job to recruit. I wonder how many youngin's volunteer vs being recruited? 2:1? 4:1?
Milatary recruters are the scum of the earth, way worse than slimey car salesmen.

Or his whole enlistment. I mentioned that. Oh no, there is a Donny in here!!!! Jack, one thing the recruiters will not tell him is that even though he may only sign up for a 4 year enlistment he HAS to serve 8 years. He will serve his 4 "active" and then his other 4 "inactive" which means he doesn't have to do anything but they can call him back anytime. I have 6 buddies right now that had been out for 2 years and are now back in Iraq. Might be something to bring up.
I thought it was 4 years actice and 2 years inactive. thanks for the info. I mentioned it to him, not to sure he knew it, kinda seemed like news to him.
