I read it with teh cheestittery. And yes, we have all gone soft, simply reliving our former gloriez as surely as largo strutting his fat ass around the crag.
On the drive home the other night, a Fugazi song came up on the ipod. "You can't be what you were. So you better start living as what you are." I guess we'd all better just be content in the shame that we are rolling around in right now.
But still, if we're only as good as our last climb... I'm pretty psyched right now.

Gonna be cold around here next week. You need a place to crash and drink beerz? I'll be working, but you are welcome to crash the pad. I think somebody from out here is renting a haus for teh weke end. though depending on when I get in saturday night, I might just throw down at the oak creek trailhead off the rode, since we're gonna try to do Eagle Dance on satyrday. no brit to get sick and bail this thyme. How long are you here?
get in late friday night, leave sunday afternoon. some other folks are getting in thursday afternoon.

Worthless without pics!
Seriously, I'm trying to see how you suddenly got a wrist.

Grr. So last week I sold one of Brian's Mammut ski jackets on gear trade for a mere $95 (it's a $450 gore jacket he wore for a season - he got it at cost, but whatever). I've never had a problem with gear trade before, but I just got an email saying that the buyer says the zipper is broken and wants a full refund (which means I eat the $12 shipping).
Well, considering I ZIPPED THE JACKET UP TO SEND IT I have to disagree with ya, but all I can do is accept the return. I'm curious if the guy got the jacket, it didn't fit him, and now he's all 'Oh, it's broken, it's a misrepresentation' since on GT it's final sale.

New tool. Much longer than my old but is a carbon shaft which is nice.
The wrist.
The wrist in full mid swing extension.
The flick at the end of the swing.
Tool in 'ice'. Way heavier and will require way more force so I went out and grabbed one of those exercise bands to work out my tricep and try to strengthen whatever there is to make stronger in my elbow, because this says tennis elbow all over it.
Hope to get out to use it soon.

That's nice of you and all, but I wouldn't think you'd have any obligation to take the return. Plus if the zipper is broken (because he broke it) you're going to have a hard time selling it again.
Can't you tell him to bugger off?

I think I have to. GT contacted me (there's no direct contact btw seller and buyer) and they said we're sure you didn't mean to misrepresent it, honest mistake, we can either have him send it to you or you can see if he'd be willing to pay less for it? Basically I haven't gotten paid for it yet, the funds are still in escrow.
I'm like, fuck, a new zipper is $20 he should just do that. In fact, that's what I'LL do if it is in fact broken, which it isn't, so send that sucker back. I think if he broke it intentionally I'll be able to see and then I'll raise hell with GT, maybe get some money off of some bindings.

That looks pretty sweet. The wrist flick will be nice as well.

The Gunks are pretty rad, though. Some of the best trad cragging evar. MF is the quintessential 9+. Jersey weeding. I stayed on with Cornelius to do some climbing. Just stopped raining and now we wait for the crag to dry oft. kamhed's GU has always been a bit weke. there are probibly a few areas that are already dry ... pretty sure gunks.com has a list of rowts that stay dry somewhere. the gunks kick ass. Yeah we were able to get in a few pitches. Did Bunny to get a rope up then tronsighted recompense and nose dive. Nice routes! A tad wet though. Then did Jackie and top roped Classic. Only saw two people up there all day. Tomorrow should be cold but dry. Hopefully well get on da goods. I assume you mean retribution? Isn't recompense what donny meatdecked on at cathedral?
Retribution-- woo! my glory zend
