thats the only indicator I've ever had that I could lead. my gym never gave me a pink card, but I just show up with a harness loaded with cams and they don't question my abilities! I think its a bit more expensive than one of the certifications though.

you never got the pink card!

A loaded harness trumps a pink name tag.

On a few privileged occasions, I've seen people in the gym with gear hanging from their harnesses. At first, I was puzzled...until I realized that only the very best climbers could swap their draws with the gym draws, clip, and send that Red Route.

Could someone tell me which end of the rope to tie into. I wouldn't want to use the wrong end.
Crazy
one end is sharp, the other end bitter. Taste them if you must, but tie into the sharp end, and use care that you don't cut yerself in the process.

Lazlo, your headed for the BET at an alarming rate! Suffice to say your getting warmer.

I'd reach for it to show you again, but alas it is too far away at the moment.

Oh and when you get it, throw in an MF so those ignant climbers hear you.

Ugh! I think I just lost my 'kudos'!
I didn't understand 'BET', what you would 'reach for', or 'MF'

Is there hope for me still?

I think someone should PM me...because WHEN I figure it out; I'm gonna have to blab it all over RC.com and the game will be up. What then? The climbing hierarchy of RC.com will be in ruins. Ruins I tell you! Chaos will reign.

I don't want it any more than you do. Think long and hard about it. The future of RC.com post-whoreing is on the line...

I started leading because my friends like to climb with the protection of a rope.

It's only functional pieces are that it is difficult to decipher
making it suitable as an inside joke and that it refers to page turns.
