I cracked the front face of my cell phone, before I can get a new one at no additional charge (other then the monthly fee). It still works mind you, but it's cracked.

Booohooooo :)

Should I start with a Hoegaarden or a König pilsener?

I HATE BIG DECISIONS!

Norwegian, I grew up in US, and am as spoiled as any of the other people here. Point of this thread is to laugh at some REALLY SMALL THINGS that annoy us on occasion.


My first world problem of the week. Had 4 days off to climb. My partner was only available for 1. :`(

A lot of the sales people at the stores I go to are not very attractive. They really aren't.

My portable A/C unit (that I got free from a friend) isn't cooling enough.


Yes 80* and humid (for here) requires A/C in a SB upstairs apartment.

Guess a cold one will help.

The first world problem is that we are going to run out of oil.

I know miss point here but oh well kick me off your thread then. Im your first world problem now, buddy.

Sorry Mighty Hiker. I yanked my post after the one I was responding to got deleted because it didn't make sense out of context. Then your post didn't make sense either.

Honestly though they seem like a reasonable engineering solution for a first world problem, namely traffic congestion.

Behold the diverging diamond interchange:

OK, now where were we?

Maybe they should install some of those diamond interchanges at key locations in Yosemite Valley. Maybe on at the main intersection in front of each village. Imagine how educational it would be for everyone!

I was posting on this thread when suddenly I rolled over in bed and navigated to a different page.

The pool sprung a leak while we were vacationing at June Lake. Lost half the pool water. Had to get a friend to go by the house and stop the leak. Now the refilled pool temperature is only 75 degrees. Damn!!!! Have to put the solar blanket on - it has grass clippings stuck to it. How ever will we be able to entertain properly this weekend? We can't have guests in water cooler than 80 degrees!!

HUGE FWP!

I climbed my first big wall to the top (Lost Arrow Spire Direct) and day-hiked SE Face Direct (IV 5.9+) of Clyde Minaret, but I can't write trip reports about it because I am going for a 2 week vacation north. : (
