Crimpie,
I'm lucky to recognize my own house when I get home at night!
It does look familiar though. I know I've been on granite before. Looks like somebody has been chipping holds big time!

City of Rocks - Carol Kotchek. Route name I've forgotten.
Regardless, it has some excellent lycra. :)
Edit: NICE one COT!

As I said we didn't have a guide so we didn't know nuttin'. If it looked gud we gave it a whirl. Coulda been doing' FA's for all we knew. Who cared?

Philo, is that really you in those pics? Where da heck were those taken?
Somewhere I have some similar pics of Bob Dickerson when he was in his Modern Dance phase. What's next, Dancing with the Stars?
p.s. I don't know Curt above, but that one stands out as one of the swishiest photo's I've seen (not that there's anything wrong with that:-)

Yep MossMan that's me. Marilyn re-created Carmina Burana with full choral and percussion ensembles at Fort Lewis College. Huge production, lots of bodies, Tiny amount of stage space left to dance with exuberance upon. Fortunately there was a lot of rope dancing above the floor. It was wacky but we had to re-stage everything a week before the opening because heavy snowfall collapsed the roof of our original theatre. Talk about a desperate scramble. Rush, rush, rush... It's Show Time!

Now be truthful Phil, "rope dancing" is the true skill that you used to attract your beautiful spouse. I know that you've got those stirrup things above your bed, and now I also know the truth behind your ongoing knee problems...ha! :-)

Philo, too cool! I remember you mentioned in the Merce Cunningham thread that you spent some time in the fantastic world of dance, me too. Some of the sequences on stage constitute the most challenging redpoints I have ever experienced. If I lived in the city I would still take class, IMO by far the best urban workout one can get in 1.5 hours.

An old friend an former dancer sent me this video as it is reminiscent of my choreography from BITD. It is very cool and if it doesn't make you appreciate lycra then nothing will. Enjoy.

And Maysho, you are so correct, Dancing is HARD! The art of dance is to make the brutally difficult seem effortless.

i thought they were just the ticket for northwest bushwaking. when every shrup dumps it's leaf cups of cold water on you, and your pants are stowed to be put on dry, you've still got some abrasion resistance, ankle seals for ticks, and a moderated skin temp that takes the chill shock off the next bushload of douse.
didn't lawrence of arabia stick 'em on his head, tie the legs behind, take a wrap beneath the chin and toss the rest over his shoulder?

"Did chicks wear this stuff, how did they conceal there camel toe?"
If they did, I doubt it would have been a problem. You can't have toe unless you've got a "brazilian" job going on. Very few girls in the lycra error were that into such extreme landscaping.
