I remember learning to juggle in camp 4...It was all the rage. I perfected it with green tomatoes when working the loading dock at Ragu in Merced. There were also these pre-hackysack things made out of a disk of phonebook with a feather sticking out of the middle. Chain walking also. Red hot coal tossing.

Hey man, I gotcha it’s hangin low, /././././-90my=,././././ Funny typo - !ST lee Remick still does it for me Angie Dickerson too
1st lee my wife (not named Lee) and I went and saw Burton 'These Eyes' Cummings and the showstopper was right there on YouTube that was .... Another story...
Today was not a day that I had time to post up ......she's the love of my life ......supposedly
I left the laundry all over the floor
ran out on her.. yo........while she was indisposed (Insert Truck stop potty faces here) to go climbin with a rope and A partner who already knows me and what I demand for A belay. This has become a challenge of late I burn thru partners and their chicks always dig me… asked if I like Cake I ask for a taste…. big Al’s girl from way BITD may be to blame.Another strange story((Karen Wilkennson ,like the sword the razor advertisment from yor:: the sound of swords clashing if I could I would find that swashbuckeler sound (Insert Erol Flynn. Hey I resemble that remark, clash clang)
still spelling out more
I blame my self for not joining this Kampfire sooner have only been a modern Emailin fool for less than six months though before that I refused, still have xxx mags under the mattress.
Did you catch Macdaddys’ regurgitation was that like the leaving of Ekat Gordo and
Dr F; also My fault …a confident climber is like a good assassin…an insecure climber is like a relief pitcher who only throws balls
Buttstain..no thats not right, Buhddastalin nolikee this
at three am I posted this,... I thought it clear… on the thread that earlier you saw and then asked me about
easy climbs in Yos
Looks easy from here
was starting to say what I will finish
this is not all that well thought out
have you ever maintained more than two noObs before?
Take smoking ducks’ advice and he will get to send some one out to pick up the pieces.
ground school
is key to give the beginning climbers' mind the info to feel safe and for it to be fun
getting in over your head if you're not skilled at the "guide mode"
Guide mode is work ....Peer pressure...that you don't mean to generate....will leave the weakest member of your party at risk....
preaching now..
hire /get ...a professional or a second experienced in the easy? ?....climbing that you seek
if you need to ask here....just saying...

Malice's restaurant massacre thread. Group W meets on Turd's Day.
Whiners International prayer breakfast on Friday.
Brokedown Climbers meet at 11 am on Turd's Day.
The Taco, for me, seems to be a lot of the enchilada, lately.[Click to View YouTube Video]Not the whole enchilada, for there are other things to eat.
There seems to have been a Great Reaction to The Closing Down of the Wrong Right thread.
It could be trend-setting is here to stay. They liked the old version of the Mickey Mouse Club so well (actually, the Mouseketeers just grew the hell up) that they canceled it. Then they brought it back with a new cast, the likes of whom you know. We have been there, here, and done that there thing, so go back in the archives and check it out, DirtBrag.
I have lurked and looked and will refrain from entering that arena, just as with the Old School thread. Politics and endless regurgitation of the same old makes my head hurt and I get confused by double talk and I'm sure you all agree with me.
BUT I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT, OTAY?
Keep your own counsel, say you are a member of a party, let it go, I know where you f*#king stand, obviously. OTAY?
I don't wanna know about how son-of-a-bitchy contrary is our elected president, the lame duck. OTAY?
The smoking duck had it right in his first post on that jingus thread, calling it, the 'Dumbest and stupidest thread on the the internet.'
THAT SAID, I need never go there again, because to doubt the duck is to flaunt your own ignorance.
There is this, though.
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/07/10/you-might-be-surprised-who-makes-obamas-list-of-great-republican-presidents/
It includes one presidential statement which is oxymoronismo to me:
“My mom, she had good old-fashioned liberal, progressive values but she wasn’t involved in politics and my favorite president is a Republican named Abraham Lincoln.”
Liberals, in my mind, have always been non-reactionary, progressive, duh. This precludes being old-fashioned if one is liberal. This is oxymoron country, in this old man's opinion.
This is NOT criticism of the man's attempts to do the impossible. It is only an observation that he should have had a better talk with his speech writers.
All the same, I'd like to declaim,
Maybe liberalism is just the same as conservatism under the blankets?
And yet the good gents 'over there' got to belabor the product of our founding fathers, a good enough political system, as long as you don't become too involved, and agitate and be foolish in front of thousands, but then that's their own damn business and none of my own.
Rants dressing is not available for this political salad that I've served up. So sorry.
In the words of Patrick Henry, owner of the Blue Fox Bistro in Williamsburg, "I regret that I only have Russian, French, and some old, old vinaigrette, suh, but the croutons are fresh."
This has been a paid non-political post.
You wanna talk politics, head to the Blue Fox. It's on the right side of the road, though, I gotta warn ya.

Still trying ta lurn me the way to get that video thingy to show up
on the thread.... real climbers.... I posted some thing that just sent me into the bottom of my jim beam
When the grey light of day was starting to show and life was an hour or two from starting,
To get sleep to come I would head to the turdfull thread; Gobble Dee Guk VS SmrataZs' No Climbing
A thread full of BS(where the duck would some times crap too.) 'Topeans' that I recognize left steamy Bear sized loads and the Brahma bulls' cow pies would put me to sleep which I needed
that's all I used it for

You are right that the moderates I was jailed to by that crew I was with that time.
The Cow ,Grack, Lower Little Bro,swan slab stuff, Ant Fanny's Pantry. the manure pile, Nutcracker et. al.
((bunch of times, that last ones' The trade route. The first thing I would do when I got to the valley would be to swing leads with what ever 'freshy' I was with until they said when.))
Many at the 'Books', Bishop's terraces, Royal Arches (serenity crack? that bashed out start thing) the fine crack to face just below it had just been done. I sent it. got an early repeat
Adrenaline (123 easy peesee a proud moment, in front of a crowd)
You asked about Oak flat? (would that be how we rapped into A Separate Reality? different trip some one slipped trying the 'head jam' rest and tore his ear,Got to meet Warner )
Try again ledge? most certainly. That is the name of a Gunks classic
I am sure that I would Have Insisted on leading It.
Green dragon to Mr Natural stands out. (and for days after) with 'Yabo' who grabbed the belay after knocking down my inattentive (to a scary degree) belayer.

Prine is the poor man's Prince, as I C it.
Prine's prints are on file with the FBI, I betcha, too.
He looks like a poor man's LostInShanghai, at least sometimes, in a vague Bruce Jenner/Billie Jean kinda way, nawmean?
Up on Choctaw Ridge I saw Billie Jean McAllitster beat Bobby Riggs to death in a bungie-jumping contest.
She was able to swat the water with her tennis racket three times before she was lifted back into no gravity.
And he only got two.

How about a date, baby?Notice the old "historical" dates, the ones lodged in the upper tiers of the pineapple-looking crown retain color. The ones from past seasons, lower down in the pattern, are somewhat darker in comparison.
http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/historic-versus-historical
There are anhistorical dates, I suppose.
anhistorical
English
Etymology
an- + historical
Adjective
anhistorical (comparative more anhistorical, superlative most anhistorical)
Not historical. Bottom line.
But were they REAL? Or were they MEMORICS?

Justin, Big Mike, and other bugshutters,
In the interests of relieving myself of worrying about this dammed lack of rain in the Far West,
and in order to counter any ill effects of dehydration felt from Microdot's recent fun solo run through the Fresno desert,
I thought it might could refresh a body to remember that, as Longfellow penned:
So here are pix taken on the fly,
As I was simply just passing by
On the way back to the place that I
Call home.
I'd like to thank John, driver that day, of course.
At Valley View.
Call 209/372-0200 for YNP road conditions.
In the rain, John said, he automatically cuts the speed to insure our safety (and his).
A rock no one seems to forget once they've seen it.
One more look for the road, though...
His name's not Leo, likely.
It's dried up now and has been for some time.
"Who can the weather command?"--Black Peter
"The sun'll come out tomorrow."--Annie
I would not trade any of my tomorrows for a single yesterday, however.
It's just easier taking the bus when it's raining than hitching, Bobbie.
YARTS may not 'rule' but it's as good as it gets if you haven't any wheels.
Some of you, not many, but some, would appreciate the ride up and back.
These were made on April 1, 2013, no foolin'.

The race will never be over
Until you're rollin' in clover.
The pastures of heaven await
On beyond that pretty pearl gate.
When you get there and meet Saint Pete
He'll see you and hit "sins/delete."
Cuz he knows all the good that you've done,
He'll say, "Come in--we'll have us some fun."
Fish fries and barbecue all the time
A new model halo every year
And the reality of it won't matter a bit
