We're still good, though.

If one wishes to stop n view the trees and the Art Hop exhibit, the set-up will remain til the week after Christmas, I think.

Museum hours are Tuesday-Sunday, 1 pm to 4 pm. Free, but the cookies are all gone!

The Carol of The Bellz

https://youtu.be/CYkj52dvxrk

for what it's worth
a song that is
is a song with wings to help us reach up
to where we hope the Angels 'live'

TO dwell,*, ('*', is any expletive you care to choose;eF'd-up, works gud)
to continue on, when *
when it is all*
And has become,*
and won't stop becoming*
even though in the end it is most unbecoming *

in time living
Living on isn't so bad considering the alternative


As the pains swirl 'round from knee to brow,

from there to there?

oh, come on, Now!

I never even knew I had a there there

& what is that?

What do you call what I feel?

Is it a cramp??

what is that?

hot? tingles?

pins & needles?

on a scale of 1 - 10?
hows a 19 sound

I have, as many know, a gift that is a curse.


then I removed:

a SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS AROUND THE TACO,

WHEN WE, THE SURVIVORS, ALL START TO LAMENT,
ASKING IF ITS THE THORNES IN THE LAURELS THAT
ARE LEAVING UNWELCOME WELTS



We are the unlucky ones,
to have to go on
Re-live what went wrong,
And tortured too
by the never really knowing.
Just that at the end of a fall
A Life Stopped

What can one say to anyone anyway?

Only the good die young?
the good that died at 40?
They?
Were they the angels I took with me instead of a rope,
As I'd hoped

that they;
got kilt
lost the race
found grace
Ate dirt

called in their chits,
yaked out,
got the chop,

failed to return

depressing isn't it,
a thousand ways to say that "they died doing what they loved"

hate that 1


Loved to death? is that really any way to go?
Yes, it is an easy way out
This age, this aging thing
This aging thing always only getting older
sucks

but I have spent hours and hours going over & over,
and over the bells the bells
do they ring for me?
Do they ring for you?

I have a gift that is a curse.
it is too much,
too much
Too visceral
nearing obscenity when
When its in verse


What can one say to anyone anyway?

We are the unlucky ones?
What if it is the:
Father of...
Or
if it is the Mother of...
A brother, A sister, A lover?
there is no way to take their pain away
What can you say?

Only the good die young?
the good that died at 40?

They - those young men & women
Whos so un-timely passing froze them,
the memory of them, as children I will always wonder after
What If?
established forever astoundingly in the firmament

I had hoped that they all were
the angels I took with me instead of a rope.


A sad day a past now with no future
that they;
got kilt
lost the race
found grace
Ate dirt

called in their chits,
yaked out,
got the chop,

failed to return

depressing isn't it,
a thousand ways to say that "they died doing what they loved"

I'm sure many tried, but the world would be better if more walked with the Ninas, no matter when the faults in their voice.

If you were down, she certainly seemed to be there if you needed it.

Joined the Berkeley climbing gym today with my fellow geezer Mike. Things have changed. First of all, everyone looked at my blue Robbins boots like they were something unusual. I had to use a thing called a "harness" like I"m a horse or something. My swami belt must be too complicated for all the young kids running the place. Also, the ropes. They looked like snakes. All smooth and colorful. They even rated some of their climbs 5.11, Right. Llike anything is that hard or even possible.

Will report back.

Throwpie, I am in your camp, please if it is for real, go at it very slowly, Indoor plastic pulling is a hated thing for the high number of climbing-career wrecking injuries it has caused
Like the second coming of an all killing Ice age that wipes out all us dinosaurs, and leads to a spring of imps whose choice of jumping up for pinches, slopers and the like is quite a sight to behold.


It is done, No?

"hard or even possible"

"chaotic is a technical term, meaning that the math in the model is very 'twitchy...'"


I'm matching zBrown in "links you'd really read if you had the time," at least so far on this page.

Keep us posted, Throwpie. You oughta think on upgrading to stickies, dushe.

Trust me Gnome, I ain’t lunging for sheet. Certainly not slopers. This is truly geriatric stuff. 30 plus years of constant windsurfing have given me pretty good upper body preservation though...

Hey climbers! I'm a student at UVU doing a research project on rock climbers. This survey if for my project, I'm trying to get as many climbers as I can to take it, it would really help me out if you could hit it up really fast, thank you!

prove, in 4 ways that what you say is true, please

or


get DA phook out - you slimy insurance mudderrucker


to all the tribe,
provide no data,
fake or real

it is some thing?
what it is & is not is not clear

but do not answer a call that you did not ask after,
& that came here with no proof of anything at all.

I have flagged this post, too.

We're the most studied group ever in history. The surveyors must be coming to one mind blowing conclusion after another to be doing it over and over again.

Calm down Gnome, it is just a noob

to the OP - did anyone help you with your survey, it seems defective.

Q2. seems like a big leap from intermediate to semi-pro (whatever in the hell that is?) and isn't an intermediate also an amateur.

Q4 shouldn't there be a "never" choice

Q6 none as a choice?

Q7 see Q4

Q8 see Q6

Q9 see Q4

Q10 hey, never showed up!

You should delete your spam on the other threads or risk getting the whole thing shut down.

Thanks for the feedback, I had no idea some of it wasn't working. I'll take a look at it and update it. I just needed to get it out and as many people as I could to take it so I could get some results for my study.

Basically I've done a bit of climbing at ogden's Irock, and here at UVU at the Project Climbing Wall. I am definitely a beginner but am working towards climbing a lot more often.
