Thats how it was in Grenada ... their beer was cheaper than water... but TERRIBLE... it was called Carib. Some places you could get better beers, but mostly it was Carib for everyone

I'm hoping for a deep freeze here. I need some good ice climbing before heading to the land of perpetual good weather. I am hoping for some occasional bad weather... would like some snow in teh mountains College kid nextstore has been out boarding 5 time already. Headed to Mammoth for the weekend. I appreciate his dedication. Me, I'll be happy to get one weekend in Mammoth. I was supposed to be in Mammoth the week of new years... but 1. I can't board 2. everyone bailed HOPEFULLY I'll be cleared to board in time for a small trip later in the season... but no guarantee :( Depending on how my walking is going, I might go to san jacinto for some light snowshoeing... That won't be to hard on the kidney? nope... and I'm sure that brain aneurysm is healing nicely

no no, the beer is good here, it's just that there's a different effect for some reason. again, the same beer has a far different effect on me than that same beer does back home.
not sure if it is the altitude and the heat or what.

Probably the next best thing to climbing in short-shorts, which you will never see me do. ooo those sound awesome the prana warehouse sale was this weekend... now I look like a trendy prana spokesperson but at a fraction of the cost I'd be ashamed if they weren't so cheap...and comfy Yes Prana is trixy like that, always putting there stuff on sale. Veeeerrry trixy. They haven't gotten me yet! yeah but when the shirts are $5 and pants not much more, I throw dignity out the window for clothes. I got 7 things for under $100... actually their clothes fit me really well.and are super comfy... I just feel like the runners who aren't that great but head to toe decked in nike gear :P The silver lining is a lot of SD climbers know about the warehouse sale, so we all end up looking equally trendy... less taunting 
Yeah I've mostly gotten over the trendy vs. functional delema. Still embarassed to wear the North Face logo but I do it because fleece is fuzzy DAMN IT.

If you like that movie?
