yeah so I hear there was this private jet that crashed in the climbing zone of all climbing zones. Yosemite and you will never believe this ... the plane was full of pot .....
I was young, just a kid, but it was the story that fueled an alternative life style, that took off with No nukes and Green Peace,mixed with Feed the people and the Dead, the whole thing started and ends at the point of classic cosmic Geschtalt or another phsycological theory of smashing worlds together to see what the results on societies of vastly differing types, will be. Any way it was the legend of the plane and the shinning moment, of the brief winter to haul as and get what you could that led to inner if not expressed outward hopes and dreams of the climbers. Many who were all ready on the road trip to find a plane load of pot of their own.

Any more and........ can YOU pay me to write it .....?.?.????




really I just need to know some facts ...How much pot was there?.
What was your gig and how do you fit in
late to the party could you please fill me in

I figure that I have about thirty more post etts to stuff in to play catch the end of a soon dead thread

There is this canyon in the middle of the nexus of residential real estate and ill planning. A park of a houses in the hart of an outdoor play ground or as the sprawl has grown out,
Just another over-run paradise, with a housing development to show for it's success.

question:
How many more?
Answer:
At least one more.
Question:
What canyon??
Answer:
Ferguson Canyon outside of Salt Lake City Utah.

Ferguson is a climbing destination that is dwarfed by the number of other good zones near by.
The. place was once a hot bed of good leadable 5.11&12s.

The sprawl and residential real estate boom of the '90s caused some issues,parking?and may have cost ...I d not know, what the, access is like now.

I posted a Utah appreciation thread .....
So did Jaybro........

Ferguson .".......climbing is it allowed???
Ferguson .".........climbing where to park???
Ferguson ."..........How are the old bolts???
Ferguson ."...........what were the names???
Ferguson ."............ The Fortress? Armageddon?
Ferguson .".............The bolted route up on the left?.

Any one love that small canyon that got to much love as it were??
I think a plain Jane used to crash there with her man plain Fred, or was it Kenny???

Sidmore,

Yes it’s me I am back. Thought you were saying bye bye.

“goodbye fellas, it's been a real hoot” Just a stalker. One that is easy to find out.

Things I cannot understand: When you first posted no caps, no paragraphs, never made sense, it was always about you as in I. Then you made many constant mistakes but the best one lately was the three hour time zone difference? I remember a few years ago and I was out of country well before you were awake [I don’t know maybe you were awake] I was 13 hours ahead and when I posted it showed on ST, PAC time. Strange what country were you in where you were three hours.

You finally learned from other ST posts of your ramblings: you now write in sentences, periods, I guess you must have graduated: so my question what don’t you write our own book. You say you are a writer.

There are two stories out on “Who really killed Bin Laden”, I read the first when it first came out, in fact read before the book came out: sure the author made a few mistakes in giving out intelligence info but it was not anything new. He now agrees to the mistakes. As for the US going after him ?

As for the recent one on FOX news: I felt it more of a Geraldo Rivera show since it should clips [2] with his comments, when the team members read of the news about the mission.


Then there was the WalMart scene that the guy [who says he thinks he hit the first shot that killed him] dad gets all emotional about. The commercials followed and felt ‘I can see it now or by New’s year “WalMarts shirts, towels, t-shirts……………………… I could be wrong. You know just like Duck Dynasty apparel.

The second team member who is the hero left out what the original team member said but add other things and scenes which is questionable but FOX and anti-Obama military propaganda go together.

More books are coming out what really happened “Fog of War”

There are three maybe four that deals with the plane on other ST posts and you do not comment.

As for time and getting the right info takes time:


The lady in the picture is very intelligent, she’s a reader [not by books] but in a different way and can conclude that you are nothing. She has a few thoughts what you look for and in what people say and act.
So you maybe a wannabe, the info already known, a dead end and not relatable source. Not to be trusted, hear say: I say all of them. There were a couple of notes written maybe you would know or wrote. You have to look back in the posts.

So STORYMAN tell us your story: All the info is here should have it done by the first of next week. Eh? You have the publishing contacts. Just come up with some dough publish 100 books, sell them or write it on here.

First look up infrasonic 17Hz tone that is a radio wave. Which Hz will show and tell for you.

Where's my reward?

A fairer question has never been asked and equally un-fairly never answered.

It's kinda like the sound of one hand clapping, a tree falling in the forest when a bear is taking a sheeit and/or the publication date of the Aero-Drug World According to Ric.

There's actually some pretty funny stuff on this thread. Thanks sidmo.

Just for those only passing through, if you type [/quotE] it doesn't work like when you don't capitalize the e, which probably isn't all that important unless you are Elvin "The Big E" Hayes.

California Statute os Limitations vary a little based on the "crime", but stands at seven years for something like this. Federal Statutes need a little more research. In any case everyone who fetched the gasoline soaked chronic was clear bye1985.
Besides the taste of fuel, it was good smonk. I remember some of the stories very well. I had some pieces of the plane for years. Souvenirs.

As for the book. Its getting down to the wire. I'm now just tying up loose ends as far as the sequence of events go.

I was the same age as the pilot when he died. I hope I get to read it before I push worms.

Actuarials say I have 17 years.

^Well in this case it does. Q.E.D.


On the off chance that anyone is paying attention.

You oughta see the video of my sweetheart (from 1973) fully 4 years before the infamous plane crash, when she was a VP at PSA. She was and still is quite a babe and could fly an L1011 with the best of them.

If anyone has any information send it to me via ST PM because I'm thinking of doing a book.

I will soon post my address in Merced in order for you to send packages, cookies, fish tacos, in and out burgers, and lumps of coala.

i hate to burst anyone's bubble about punctuation, but here goes: times like this, when I interrupt something else going on (today that's turkey and footbaall) to check email and/or topo posts I may not want to open Microsoft word to blast out a reply or rant or diatribe or whatever - so I type hurriedly using hyphens instead of periods, not capitalize or spellcheck because quite frankly you readers are not worth the trouble - when i'm working, and I kill some time or try to break writer's block by checking and/or posting on topo i'll write my reply or rant in word and cut and paste into the topo thread - if you want to read into my punctuation or lack thereof any more than that then you live up to my low expectations of you intellectually - when I tell you that I don't care what you think, think about this: why would I lie? where's the benefit? I wouldn't know you morons if you all walked in the door right now - sure, I probably knew a few of you then, mouse seems a likely candidate for a past associate if not friend but again, who cares? we are all either part of the plane's history or interested in it - why would anyone lie about it unless there were trying to impress some babe like that one in the last picture and get into her life/pants? now she is pretty and I might lie to her, except I never found lying to women a good idea in the long run, they can usually tell if you are - but most of you are not female and not blessed with that intuition - so as I've said before, stop attacking or focusing on me or any other poster except the licky - he's a phony at best and a narc at worst - as for statutes of limitations, they are not the only concern - at the beginning of this thread there was concern mentioned about how dredging up the past might negatively affect some players at a time when they'd prefer to live the new lives they've built for themselves - so for the record, I believe I've said this before but I don't study the threads so perhaps not, but allow me to capitalize this important point - I WAS INVOLVED WITH SOME OTHER FELLAS DURING THE PLANE THAT I AM UNABLE TO FIND NOW - WITHOUT THEIR EXPLICIT PERMISSION I CANNOT AND WILL NOT TELL MY STORY TO A THREAD OR OVER A CUP OF COFFEE WITH ANYONE - IT WOULD BE THE SAME AS SNITCHING ON A FRIEND - YOU YOUNGER READERS MIGHT NOT GET TTHIS, BUT IN THE DAY, THAT IS BACK IN THE DAY THE WORST SIN WAS TO SNITCH ABOUT DRUG-RELATED ISSUES - I HOLD TO THAT CREDO STILL, SORRY - UNLESS I CAN LOCATE TWO UNNAMED PEOPLE WHO MAY HAVE FALLEN OFF AN ALASKAN FISHING BOAT BY NOW FOR ALL I KNOW I WILL NOT TELL DETAILS OF MY STORY - IT WOULD BE BAD KARMA TO DO SO - AND IF YOU WANT TO SNEER AT ME FOR THAT THEN SNEER ON - AND PHUCK OFF!!!!!!!!

AND JUST BECAUSE LICKY LETS US IN ON HIS ID AND LOCATION DOESN'T MAKE HIM RIGHT - CLIMBERS ARE SOME OF THE MOST EASYGOING FOLKS AROUND AND HE HAS NOTHING TO FEAR - WHEN MY JOURNALISM TREADS ON SHAKY GROUND I TREAT MY SOURCES WITH GREAT RESPECT AND THEY OFTEN ASK NOT TO BE IDENTIFIED - IT'S ALWAYS BETTER TO HAVE AN ATTRIBUTABLE SOURCE, BUT MOST EDITORS WILL ALLOW SOME REFERENCES TO REMAIN UNNAMED (GOOGLE BEN BRADLEE+DEEP THROAT) AS LONG AS THERE IS SOMEWHAT CORROBORATING EVIDENCE AND THE PRACTICE IS NOT OVERUSED - LICKY, BEING A NOVICE MUST NOT KNOW THIS, OR CARE - SUPERTOPOPPOSTERS SHOULD CALL HIM OUT ON THIS - HE'S USING HIS SOURCES INAPPROPRIATELY AND UNPROFESSIONALLY AND SHOULD NOT BE REWARDED FOR THAT

Wow! I am impressed need to go back and see the movie, what were the words they let you write for which scene.


Edit:

I am Puzzled why don't you have this: Any intelligent writer has one. Get the ear mike that when you are taking a pee and your comp is three rooms away still will write what you said. Does Caps, just say end with period, next sentence, new paragraph.................... corrects words for you................



It even works in the rain.
