All this thread needs to get back on its feet is merchandising.
Let's see.
We have Wings of Steel: The Climb.
Wings of Steel: The Book.
Wings of Steel: The Film.
I think we need Wings of Steel: The Film about the Thread - An epic and inspiring chronicle about how the rock climbing community came together over a 3.5 year period to create the most epic thread in Supertaco History.
(I will later go on record claiming that I never said it was the most epic thread in Supertaco History. Then, when you go back to prove that I did, you'll find that it's been changed to read "one of the most epic threads in Supertaco History.")
We could also go with Wings of Steel: The Portable Outhouse. (THAT could have prevented a lot of misunderstanding.)
And just maybe... a Shrieking Mimi doll.

I think "Movement Over Stone" by drljefe, is the best so far
"A Smear Too Far" by The Larry isn't too bad either..

I know Ron, already touched on this one but....
O shitter where art thou?
Could be dmt's new motto?
edit
Another koolaide drinker. No surprise here. These guys are not the heros in this saga. I'd say the shitters are the real heros.

GnomeBoy, I bet you talk real tough facing yourself in the mirror all alone dontcha?
Posting those pics when I'm not even around is a bit silly.
Time to bend over and assume your standard position waiting for the plastic exploding inevitable, aka, the Blue Buttplug of Truth.

First came the book.
Then the movie.
This is a real review of Screaming Mimi.
Somehow surmounting a creaky script rooted in some crackpot psychiatry, Screaming Mimi creates a somnambulistic, doom-laden mood that keeps you watching, bemused. And that's not easily explained.

I don't know if it has any relationship to the book or the movie, but there is another Screaming Mimi. This one looks more athletic. I'm sure she is a very talented climber.

GnomeBoy, you've got me all wrong. I'm actually howling with laughter. Not much screaming really. This has always been about entertainment. Staying on two total goofs trying to maintain their charade never gets old.
Speaking of mental issues, coz, you really are nuts showing such disrespect to JimD. Attacking one of the nicest, most respected climbing diplomats around really proves what a deluded and arrogant fool you've grown up to be.

There aren't any movies or books or artwork called Laughing Mimi. They're all about Screaming Mimi. I think this was because there was a German artillery piece during WWII that was nicknamed Screaming Mimi. The novel came out in 1949.

Just to show you guys that I care. Here's something I threw together just for the sake of detailed illumination. The official Wings of Steel Calendar/Timeline for May-July 1982 taken directly from the Book of Dik, wherein all hath been revealed. The x-rated version can't be posted here. LOL!
Ten feet per hour seems to be the inspired norm.

Mimi's calendar of the ascent is clearly wrong. It doesn't include any of the parts where they danced on their portahammocks, singing "We're lumberjacks, and we're not so bad". Plus bible study, wanking, and other activities.
