This winter I mistakenly ate most of a gallon zip lock bag full of venison jerkee over a weekend. Just couldn't stop eating it, so good.
I was not a regular guy for a while....

Blowmeharder, you beat me to it, LOL.
I'm not regular at all. I'm on a clear liquid diet the last two days and taking visicol pills, which have the effect of turning your ass into ye olde geyser.
So far, it's better than drinking fleets phospho-soda (tastey lemon flavor!!!) Also better than "the jug"-- a gallon of clean out juice tha no matter what you think of it at the beginning, you'll hate it at the end.
I think I am going to write a treatise on how to survive your bowel prep, LOL. I possibly hold some sort of record for number of cleanouts in a 7 year period.
I may not be a climbing expert, but I am a butt flushing expert extrordinaire, ROTFLMOA.
Excuse me now, I have to run to the toilet.
Oh wait, about regular guy climbers vs icons.
I've climbed with enough icons to feel that they are just normal people, maybe a little eccentric or with an extra dose of character, who happen to climb very hard, and/or have a need for adventure. Most of em are friendly, and many will climb with anyone who is nice, and able to get up a route with them.
IT's those climbing god wannabes that are the problem.

Sorta regular guy checking in. Don't look too closely at my family, they're all nuts.
Jaybro :
How can you call someone wearing a Pacific Crest Trail UltraMarathon Tshirt regular? Assuming he actually ran the race that is. That sounds like pretty tough stuff to me.

Hey Cracko,
Anyone who has climbed with me knows i'm about as regular as they come (except my kids - they think i'm a bad ass climber). I'm also a neighbor of yours (not the guy with car up on blocks, the OTHER guy). We moved to the AV back when it wasn't windy...
Cheers,
Ron

C'mon Jaybro - in keeping with the intention of the thread, you're not a regular guy - you're the offwidth master!
