Hard time counting my pulse, but I'm pretty sure it's nicely below 60bpm.....which is a little surprising, but I have been doing running on my lunch breaks here at work. I do have a hard time calling myself an athlete though. Athletic? Sure, but athlete seems to imply something more serious. I agree, athlete implies something more serious to me, too. But I wasn't going to go into a semantics debate with a doctor in the post-surgery room. I am sure it would have elevated my pulse rate a bit though. I do love myself some lovely arguments. As a guy who has always been pretty average in terms of athletics and athletic talent, and who hangs around with a bunch of fairly fit rock climbers I also never really thought of myself as an athlete. As I get older that changes though. I mean, take a look around. I was telling a coworker about the MoleStar yesterday, and how I've gotten so soft on camping and never tent it. He laffed his ass off. You! Soft! He said. I think we are just out of touch with what really goes on.
Like how I still feel fat when I'm hanging around with a bunch of climbers?

Just checked my resting heartrate (with 4 cups of coffee, but still...), it's at 64 bpm. The internets say that this is "good" (not elite, not excellent). Higher than I would like it to be, and I've definitely been in better cardio shape. Shitty weather, too much work, have kept my road bike in the closet behind the guitar and the lawn darts. All my excercise time I've had had been weight training or bouldering.

Exactly. It's a skewed sample.

I'd expect your sample will be further skewed now that you're working a jorb. Ha!

The women's boot camp I go to on Wednesday nights makes me feel much thinner.
A couple of things that I have noticed though:
1) The runners are pretty darn thin. Keeps me motivated to keep getting on that threadmill on my lunch breaks.
2) Seems that fit women at the gym or at work are all runners. Sounds boring. I need to find some mtn bikers or something.

You, sir, are what is rong with climbing. while that's hard to argue with, I don't know that acquisition of a stick klip really changes the extent to which I am or am not whats rong with climbing. You might have gotten a deal on a very slightly used one from Thong. His closet must be pretty full. his stick klip is about 3 feet long, and non-extendable. It has limited functionality. It does have a bottle opener attached, though. It sound like the kind of stick clip you leave a camp? It sounds like the kind of stick clip I need to hang my jacket on the hook at work. I don't know who put that hook at 7 feet high. Other than that, maybe I could use that 3ft stick clip as a draw extender midclimb?
it tends to work for clipping a lot of the first bolts in socak, since they aren't really designed for a stick clip.

They kept getting confused, because they were like: your oxygen is at 100%, and your color looks good, and blood pressure is fine, you are not in distress, so why the heck is your heart rate so low? Eventually a doctor came running in, looked at me, looked at my chart, and said: Oh, you are an athlete of some kind, are you? Looks like your resting heart rate is really low in general, and with you lying down and not moving it goes down even more. Well, just keep wiggling your feet and moving around some, so the heart rate goes just a little bit up, and the monitor shuts up. That's pretty funny. Out of curiosity I just tried to figure out what my resting heart rate was (sitting at my desk). Hard time counting my pulse, but I'm pretty sure it's nicely below 60bpm.....which is a little surprising, but I have been doing running on my lunch breaks here at work. I do have a hard time calling myself an athlete though. Athletic? Sure, but athlete seems to imply something more serious. I agree, athlete implies something more serious to me, too. But I wasn't going to go into a semantics debate with a doctor in the post-surgery room. I am sure it would have elevated my pulse rate a bit though. I do love myself some lovely arguments. As a guy who has always been pretty average in terms of athletics and athletic talent, and who hangs around with a bunch of fairly fit rock climbers I also never really thought of myself as an athlete. As I get older that changes though. I mean, take a look around. I was telling a coworker about the MoleStar yesterday, and how I've gotten so soft on camping and never tent it. He laffed his ass off. You! Soft! He said. I think we are just out of touch with what really goes on.
ha! this CI working shit is probibly going to amuse me for the next year or so.

The women's boot camp I go to on Wednesday nights makes me feel much thinner. A couple of things that I have noticed though: 1) The runners are pretty darn thin. Keeps me motivated to keep getting on that threadmill on my lunch breaks. 2) Seems that fit women at the gym or at work are all runners. Sounds boring. I need to find some mtn bikers or something.
Yeah, although I initially assumed that I'd have a lot in common with runners, I've found that they're really pretty boring.

Sounds like you'll be able to clip the 2nd or 3rd bolts in SoCak, then.
The only advantage I could see to having a Blutarskisized pole would be that it could easily fit into the clowniest of clown cars.

I am sure that is true. I have a hard time not laughing when some of my co-workers talk about this annual "camping trip" they go on with some old college friends. The preparation takes weeks. The coolers have to be stocked, the lanterns and cooking utensils, and portable sinks, and inflatable beds, and sleeping bags have to be bought new, because they never bothered to dry them out last year, and now they are all covered with disgusting mold.
They all have these big campers, with beds and all, and they go camping once a year. In warm weather, of course-- can't go camping before Memorial Day, or after Labor day! And when they go, they sit around and drink beer all weekend long, and then gripe about the campground showers and how they managed to burn the pre-cooked sausage over the campfire, but still totally worth it!

yes, should be good for hanging drawz.
we could fit your stick clip into the klown kar, so that argument goes right out the window. I did opt for a slightly shorter pole than some of the other options so that it would actually fit in my trunk, though.

Yeah, it's attitudes like that which make me just tell people that I don't like camping. I like climbing in lots of places as easily as possible, and often that involves sleeping outside, but I still don't like camping.
On our recent camping outing to North Cackalackee, I started doing the math to figure out how much dribble's parents were paying per night to sleep in their new RV, based on its cost and how infrequently they will probably use it (though I think that father-in-law will be putting it to good use in Coloradiego this summer). Way more than an expensive hotel room, though.

Camping generally sucks. I'm not sure why people make an event out of it.

Yea, I mentioned that... he wern't impressed. Finally had to mention teh name ov teh private road, ******** ave that leads down to teh guy who hates climbing and then he found it.

Big Tong bout shitz his pants in rage, when he confirmed awl my ratings. heh... I told Big Tony, he just kneeds to get owt a little more. So between laps we talked about where he has climbed and when he mentioned.... I said I knew sum people that climb there. Asked him ifs he knew Sprayhed and his short haired jumping chinchilla dribble. He looked kinda comfused. So I said Dr Paul, he's famouse in Austin, Well famouse in his own mind. Kinda likes to talk alot and lives in Ohio. Friends with Masterson. He starts to chuckle.... sprayhed. We didn't really gets into it much cuz it wus tyme to climb again, but I guess he noes ewe gays... or at least ov ewe. So sprayhed, kin ewe guess who I'm talking about? Damn, that is a impressive display in the hole. Making Nino look weke? I couldn't believe it when he used all the bad holds on Euro Vacation... and casually brushed them on lead! sik.
yea, Nino is getting kinda old though.... he must be almost 30 nau.

So I invite him owt. Nice kid, really put together, kinda makes Ronnie and Nino seem a little weke. He got on half teh roots and onsighted without any trouble everything he tried.
