yeah I know... they are both really great "men" LOL Although Curt can act Travis's age sometimes! :P But seriously I've learned almost everything I know from Travis!

This is very bad. I have to assume then that you know almost nothing, becasue Travis knows mostly nothing LOL. HELL the kid thinks an egyptian is a knee drop for pete's sake. I mean really now.

As far as me acting Travis' age, I take umbrage at that remark. I try very hard to model my behavior after Calvin, as in Calvin & Hobbes. The least you could do is notice.

The schitzophrenia causes him to have these little typing 'ticks' sometimes.

Like turhs, and thart.

Heh.

And damnit curt. I can't believe you...the decripid trad climber who has never even USED a drop knee is gonna use THAT as ammo.

Your perception of my climbing knowledge is without a doubt correct however. How do you get the rope up there anyway? Hahaha!

Youth and Intelligence triumph over Age and Senility any day of the week. Or as my good friend once said, "Damn, you've got enough spunk to fill 3 banny roosters!"

COCK-a-doodle DOOOOooooo!!!!

Crawler, no question T-Wall tops Chossed Wall. Also no question that the best of Chossed Wall would still rank among the best of T-Wall if moved. And there are still some mean projects at LW that have never even been attempted.

Well you almost got it darlin'.

What I should have said was, IF you are in a nutshell, THEN umbrage means resentment. Any logical folk out there will realize that this statement does not prevent umbrage meaning resentment when out of a nutshell.

YOU young puppy, I'll show you a drop kick if you're not careful!

As for me being decrepit and old, I'd thrash you soundly if I could remember what it was about.

That line about how do you get the rope up there, I think that is either a rockland myth, or a true story that has happened more than once when non climbers stumbled upon some climbers.

But since you obviously don't know Travis, I'll tell you. It's a secret.

No dobt! I know of two roofs and an arete that I know have not been done, that would be three star for sure and hard! There are lots of great routes there and as I have said come spring I'll be there trying to send some of them. I think the fact that there is only one route listed in the guide harder than 12a speaks volumes for the FA potential there!

A secret huh? I always figured it was magic...

In other news, I give it 90% I'll be there on Saturday. Friday is still up in the air. You want me to bring any booze if I come down Friday? I got whiskey and whiskey. Take your pick. If we bring enough, we won't even have to build a fire.

Strangely I'm kind of motivated upon hearing of unclimbed roofs at down at Chossville. I'll bring the FA stuff. (Yes, suprisingly I DO have FA stuff, who'd a thunk it?) hahaha.

Well, one that should be at least an 11 is going this sunday, as long as JC will show up. I'm pulling the briars off friday or saturday Jim, get your no wussing undies on.

Zac we put Arno on a line that has a move that is harder than B-52's from the look of it, if the thing can be done without aid.

I have a feeling that someone will finish this thing before long though, probably Arno, probably not me LOL, unless I get very very lucky. It's a hell of a line though. At least two very difficult sections, Arno got through one already. It's left of whistling past the boneyard, if that tells you anything.

Um, I'm not too sure about myself, but crawler and JCclimbs are the part of the real deal in southern climbing.


Seriously Melissa, wanna come to lost wall and help clean routes? It's really fun! And there really are some good learner climbs there.

I'll teach you what travis can't-- like how to use things like hexes and tricams adn ball nutx oh my! There's mroe to trad than cams and nuts my dear.

Now close your eyes, click your heels together and say three times, "There's no piece like a passive piece.".
