Wanna bet that if they find the missing plane crash files they'll also find all the guns that they seem to have lost?

It's time to get on the wire.

While waiting fore [sic] the intermission to end, please enjoy some fine music by Mr. Duane Eddy and the orchestra:

What good thread is a thread ( just what is a good thread ) without some entertaining music and video?

I'm sure there is at least one reader who can expound on this. A song a day, keeps the pundits at bay, or least off the Bay Bridge.

Don't want to sound like a broken record, particularly since most of y'all have probably scrapped your turntables, but The Coronado Company, in it's illustrious career, never lost a penny's worth of dope to a plane crash.

Where are all the pics of this fandango? Gotta be some and who cares anymore. Anyone who was there back in '77 is like 60 now.

If you are too disinterested to read 7 years of pointless meandering posts that have to date revealed nothing, what's wrong with you?

Seriously, without at least a quick perusal of the entries made by key figures in the saga, you will either miss the humor here, or else be led down a dark and winding path by Mr. Licky, the OP who promised great literary and journalistic revelations, only to wind up spewing rants and conspiracy theories ad nauseum.

As JL himself noted, noone from that era has ever offered anything new or noteworthy, having either died or stopped giving a crap about another tiny footnote in the drug-smuggling history of the '70s.
Whatever you do, don't engage L; you'll only wake him up and encourage him to keep phishin'.

So you need to rub it in????

And this story might just be a minor story in the whole 70's pot smuggling deal, but darn, it was the beginning of the modern outdoor gear/clothing industry that we know today.

So dude are you ever going to finish this book????????????

As it is now - it will be listed under "Ancient History"

"Lickety Splickety", from the movie 8 mile, sums this thread up IMO, still makes me smile:>)

Hope you get the book done. Sounds like an interesting story. A bunch of dirtbag climbers hitting a pot of gold, albeit columbian. Hard to believe anyone would smoke pot soaked in airplane fuel... but it does explain the weird posts of some people on this forum.
Hot and sticky today, but off to wrestle a few pebbles anyway....
Keep plugging away Licky

cuvvy.... the fuel got into the lake water.... the pot- well some of it- got into the lake.... the ones that didn't - were killer. The ones that got wet did have a "taste".....

have fun with the pebbles.

Was up at the lake last week, part of a longer trip 'round the Clark Range, over Red Peak Pass, then following the Merced downstream for 25 miles. I was hoping to catch a good sunset here, but it didn't happen. Crossed contrails looked kinda cool, though.

enjoy,

Just your sanity or maturity, apparently. It would really be nice if people - especially you, Sidmo - would just let this thread die. Is your life so bereft that you need to keep doing this, or do you have some kind of a compulsive disorder?

Of course, now I am guilty of bumping it as well. Catch 22.

Yeah big daddy vegas climber – you’re like the pot calling the kettle black, an old southern racist expression that fits your rant perfectly – I go off-thread for months at a time, do you really think I need a life? Or does it boost your ego to trash me? Either way, I never can figger you haters out – it rains here sometimes so I go online – sorrrry – why don’t you go climb a casino?
