I went out to get this baby some more milk.
I ran into the ghost of MLK in the market.
He was sittin' on the shelf next to the cottage cheese.
He was mumblin' "I have some Cream. Some day all men will be Equal. Then we'll sit down over coffee and find common grounds between men of different colors."
I got a half-gallon of regular milk and got the heck out of there.
I've had half a cup of de-calf and am ready to tackle the assignment.

Here are some threads you may have missed, neebee.
An awesome free online climbing magazine (8 whole posts, WOW, AWESOME! DMac's newsletter gets more responses!)
http://www.supertopo.com/climbing/thread.php?topic_id=2671304&msg=2671304#msg2671304
The Supertopo Newsletter came today in the email and is better than this rag (The Daily R-T) simply because it has been around longer and has some experience and therefore some cred.
There was a thread started by NWO2 (some think he's Crowley returned from the dead) in which he called for banning Apogee and Crankster, and it was pretty fun--we converted it into a thread about fly fishing--but NWO2 deleted it, who knows why.

Daphne had a birthday, which you may know.
There was monster tornado somewhere but it was just after beer-thirty, so lots missed it, being inside of bars drinking beer.
I've run out of ideas. I don't think you missed very much. The political "Ready for" threads are still running, but the "Ready for" copycat threads have died away for the most part.
Oh, and the Mobil Mart and other fine dining venues are discussed at length in a thread you might enjoy.
Mono Mkt. vs Mobil Mart

I hope this gets easier. How does CMac do it? He's a genuine winderkund in my estimation.
So, how does your garden grow?
[Click to View YouTube Video]Moooo! Loooow!

Ready for dinner? We'll be having Hot Tuna sandwiches. And more yogurt.
You never outgrow your need for Cream.

Sometimes it takes two miles, or even more in extreme cases.
I would not advise a person to climb in another's stinky old climbing shoes, however.
Berndt Arnold might agree.

4:20, up to make some 'smuchies' small four bite onion roll sandwiches, of Whatever we have on hand, with a salad of lettuce some sndwhch peppers, a drop of green hot sauce. Then if it's fresh bird or deli cold meat, no cheese.
To the sugar hollow, where a happy trio of faces in stone make up the overhanging 5.11 zone
To hard for tubby gnomes but perfect for a gym jersey boy with studded tongue. And muscle, with no grace or foot work Though.
I love the place, someone else has found it to but will not sign in. I have coffee can summit registers, at the base of at least six climbs.
Well time to make some Joe.

Gnome and the Gym Rat.
Before you go, look at the new thread I've just posted.
I was gonna post it here, but decided it might provide some more exciting chatter here on the ST as a thread on its own.
I'll go with Minya Konka here instead.
The two authors climbed this 24,000' peak on the then-border of Tibet and Sinkiang.
Accompanying them were Arthur B. Emmons III, an engineer, and Jack T. Young, and American-born Chinese.
Calling their venture the Sinkiang Expedition, they were inspired by a 1930 NG article of october, 1930,
titled "The Glories of the Minya Konka," by Joseph F. Rock.
This expedition took place in 1932, before the outbreak of WWII.
During the war the peak served as a landmark on the long air route from India to Chunking.
The purpose of the Sinkiang Expedition was partly to fix an exact altitude for the peak.
They also wanted an FA. (Sound familiar?)
They lastly were there to make small collections of plant and animal life in the region.

"+1 on the DMT pics."--Gene You get to say that again, Gene. Please do, if you agree.

"The limit's just ten. I'm a-feared you'll have to throw one of 'em back, son."
I wonder if someone's tried to free-climb the oblelisk in DMT's post.

John Stephen was the first to open a boutique on Carnaby Street in 1957, after a fire in his premises in Beak Street.
John’s boutique His Clothes grew popular for their coloured jeans and Breton shirts
& John Stephen was the first person to import Levi Jeans to the UK.
Carnaby street peaked in 1967 and has never quite been the same again.
