Hey guys - a little sensitivity will ya? Half Dome is a regular lurker here and can see *everything* you've been saying about her. Sheesh.

Bump, because the old girl's image has taken a beating lately over the cable route.

Rumor has it that the Quarter Domes are going to be joining forces to replace Half Dome.

Well, it'd be a real pity if HD got fired over a piffling fuss to do with cables and clumsy hikers. I mean really, blame her for people who aren't responsible for themselves? Sure, she's alluring, but people can't always blame others. I suppose next someone will go on one of those moronic television shows and complain about how they were victimized, that HD is a temptress they couldn't resist.

I heard HD got caught packing a Glock. Kicked him out right away and the Ranger's are pressing charges, too.

Anyone seen the old girl lately? I was in the Valley last weekend, and she is still there.

Last time I did the cable route I had a nice conversation with 1/2 Dome and she told me she supports the War in Iraq and thinks Global Warming is a big myth. Who would have thought.

I think Chico has the right approach here.

This is all hearsay and media hype.

Next thing you'll be saying she's joined Synnot, Thaw and folks on Team North Face.

On second thought, they did model that TNF logo on her...

note the similarities. something deeper is going on here.

A Yosemite ranger told me this is the result of an investigation as to who really left the Manure Pile Buttress...

I hear the next on the investigation list is Leaning Tower. Turns out that the reason for the leaning may be too much alcohol.

Wow - found another one. Very topical, with the rescue on HD a few days ago.

Look all this hearsay about Half Dome and cable bondage and behind the scene contracts with North Face is just speculation and really is nothing but reliving the past administration.

We need to move on...


Now what's this about LT? Drunk? No way!!!

Half dome supported the global warming theory even during the last ice age, mainly because she was not personally glaciated.

Whatever happened to Wild Bill? I have his e-mail address, if it is still valid, but haven't gotten around to mailing him. I met him (on the forum initially) in January 2007 when I went home for my mom's funeral. My brother showed Bill and I around his winery in Napa.

Bill, are you out there lurking?

Was this situation ever resolved? With all the snow this year, almost completely covering Half Dome, I was worried that the Park Circus, prompted by the DNC, might be trying to pull a slow one. Some sort of cover-up, maybe.

Half Dome, you can have asylum in Indiana. We need you here. We will appreciate you here. And you can take every other Saturday off.
