This is not so controversial in my estimation as the recent decision to cannonade St. Junipero Serra the Genocide.
Harriet Tubman is otay by me. The twenty is the most universal bill in circulation NOW, but in the FUTURE? Look to the new forty.
Who will be the lucky historical figure, the new "dead president?"
Kennedy? Reagan? Obama? Trump?$4.20 for YOUR thoughts on this matter--inflation happens.

Correction:
SOUTH FORK OF THE PCT
or is it South Fort
There appears to be some ambivalence amongst Idyllwilders. Too much time on their hands? Maybe they oughta get a job, eh? Maybe then they could buy a sign of their own.

I really think the new $20 should portray Ms. Tubman in all her glory.

^Damn - that sounds a lot more serious than I first thought.
If you don't mind my asking, what locality did this event take place in?

That's right down the street from McCabes and not very far from where I used to work.
I never thought of that area as particularly dangerous.
I frequently stopped at the Indian fast food restaurant on the other side of the freeway.

I was in Orange County in 1973.
Later,
I was the CosmicComputerMan at the American Golf Corporation on 28th Street (and others earlier), right across from the airport.

This one? I went to a party there once. I cannot remember how I got the invite. Probably thru my former wife who was in grad school at UCLA.

YOU GUYS and your pharmaceuticals...
PCP
PCT
PCH
PC/not PC
Here Is My Question?
Why would someone think this thread's dead?
Was it something that this head said?
YOU GUYS must be stoned,
Blitzed and real zoned,
The Flames will live on, vivid red.
You can't be twenty on Mount Diablo
Though you're thinking that
you're leaving there too soon
Your leaving their two soon
Try living on the moon
Try living as Keith Moon

Yeah, I went to that one too ccm.
The guy who owned American Golf invited me and some others down to play basketball. He was on the Forbes 500 rich guys list, but often acted just like folks on the ST. Not all the time mind you, it's not ez to get that wealthy.
What he did brag about, when he bragged, was landing an airplane on an aircraft carrier.
Just like John McEnroe, it was easy enough for me to shut him down in one-on-one basketball.
You know it's a matter of priorities.
He never said it, but I know he thought, yeah Brown you beat me, but I could buy and sell you like a slave.
To each, his owner I guess.

Cosmic, I've got the gnomes,see no, hear no, speak no, - evil. Too
fix that empty feelin' keep the Flames reeling,
(snap of bent bow Marlin breaking the surface)
But as I say going to try.,.,.,,,l....
but to surf, or search, in this tablet is to much of a buzz kill now
'Evel' will be in the Gunks. The mention of millbrook, is fully the Uberfall antithesis.
Seems that an agressive plan may be see how
some Modern Times, blows out cob webs if I can blast that thing
(directly? That might not happen) & in good time that is about the same as the Millbrook approach, I think , with to days guides I will have to check. Might need to break out a bike
& 4ack for. The car?? Oh man that. Thing has hung out side for a dozen years.
May 15, we'll see we shall see.
As to the transport from & to, that seems like the
Best thing to do is get from the airport to anywhere.
I think I could snatch you up Evel, if you get to Stamford,
Things are not on the calendar yet so we will have to see
I will email after next week.
New Paltz, via Poughkeepsie,
Works by train, the bus blows off Poughkeepsie, I'm not sure what the best thing to o is?

I like having the freedom to say Merry Christmas and not be criticized for using it as a greeting.Poor Little Correct Me Girl
She keeps trying to direct me, Earl
What's a poor boy to do?
Stay away from beach cabanas
Eat at least two ripe bananas
Each and every single day

Weird things happen on this thread.
At least we don't draw blood, fight in public, or seek to defame.
I'm proud of that.
I thank all of my associate weirdos.
And CMac most of all, I think.
Just sayin' a little ahead of 5K.

Just this moment trending else where, of some time ago I was sort of scalded, and felt the need to reply
To number counting when my post count was called out ,
but it was a joy to see the wife's eyes roll when,
told that I had made 4K
she was, like, "wHT the - nwhat are you trying to be"
Locker??
There are Lurkers out there !
The great mistake is to fixate, Merry Christmas, glad it comes up on auto correct
Or I'd misspell it.
Freudian mistakes
Phone calls need breaks was what the auto bot decided you outdoor see
I need to put on glass drink some thing ?
This just in

A quick nod and a wink to all of the ladies and the mothers of Supertopo.

TROLLED ?? Oh man , I'm so sorry for some things but
Just because yer paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
You kept at it and I thank you for that but I'm burnt and no doubt have forgotten
Many who I should not have. It goes with the territory,
you asked more than once; I did know rSin....(Roland Arson ?.I think ???.,.)
IF ROLAND IS sin?
if not easse' wasa' essa' talking like he knows me?
There was an openish door,to climbers,
at more than one of my homes.
over the years, my address, & basement
was used by passing thru hard core this or that.
it got to be a bother. (Thnx To certain cretins )
NEVER CLOSED, to;
onsighters, just arrived. . .
the night of, after meeting & partying while climbing.
that some crusher from "out West"
said, Hey or just at 2 am had no where to go ,
or stay.
to the end both I and the wife seem destined , to bring home strangers,
So it got to be a bother as well
when the real party was over.
but climbers at more than one of events
were welcome to do what ever
from park to camp
to cook inside shower,
hang .
I Had Rarsons crash many times.
That I had such a block breaks my hart though.

No Honking, Flames Thread Ahead
'Twas on the Big Island,
I learned to go slow,
Honking horns when in traffic,
Wasn't cool, don't you know,
And here on the Flames thread,
I've felt right at ease,
With the Mouse from Merced,
And his crew, if you please,
Where climbing and pets,
Videos and tunes,
Poetry and art,
Mix with pics of the moon,
I've learned on the Flames thread,
That everything's cool,
Just don't honk your horn,
When you're acting the fool,
Right here on the Flames thread,
You can feel right at ease,
With the Mouse from Merced,
And his crew, if you please.
Thanks for all the GREAT shtuffs, Mouse and Crew!!

Part time lurker, fan of thread, full time....
EDIT:
(So as not to get to close to the edge of the 5k reality)
And WyoRockMan, are you a fan of the blues brothers, by chance?
I hate Illinois Nazis
