When i was into growing...Ice,(works for both)
I used chicken wire as the base to build up frozen layers.(protect babes n' roots)
Especially at the Top (what sent me sailing most likely as not)
On the fence wire I would drive lost arrows, and pre placed loops of rope that were both anchors and pro.
My mixed climbs were Garbage Fresh, in years that past.
Back when we had seeven foot of snow ya know.
A, G.F.A.I.T.H. ; Gargage Fresh Ascent, Insight of The Highway,
that'll teach me if nuttin' will!,
The time for playing on ice is over.
Say it enough times on the inter webs and it's tru, becomes true infact and true.
Did you see that comment from Qitnl?
back in a bit or not What Was Up With The Half Dome Shot??
AL MAQTAA?
Al MaQuaTT?:Parquate, what got sprayed on your pot? Aviation fuel??
Dentil suicide in a bag?, & Drunken Van??

I'd tell you about that Half Dome NWF shot, lifted from an article or write-up of a girdle traverse starting on the right and ending higher on the NW Buttress, but like they say in Ingle Land, I put the "bewk a-why, bewk a-why, bewk a-why." Or maybe it sounds more Ozzy that why, waddya sigh?
And the Al Maquatts are just sweet chewies with sesame seeds and goo used as a dip for the stuffed date. There's a variety made with almonds, too.
The farmers round here call 'em a'monds, not almonds. And they don't use any damned federally-approved quat on their crops, not like the A-rabs.
We're still in "the country," and we're still gonna paint the Male Ox blue or my name's not Bunyoon Litella, who is Emily's "yoost a bee."
And you thought she was the Virgin Emily Litella, maybe? You never imagined her hanging all over some good-lewkin' fella (BL) until his attention was distracted by a lady selling donuts at midnight out at the Oasis Orange on 99 and he dumped her like a bucketful of old orange rinds.
You got your troubles, I have nine.

Next you'll be asking WTF is up with ^^^ No ducks were in this still picture, so no ducks were harmed in shooting this still picture.
vvv Nor were any fowl harmed in these next shots, neither.The Double Eagle could not be here today. Held over in Jackson, Amador Co., for the weekend.
"So, Miss Litella, what do you think of the free-climb of the Swan Wall?"
"Never mind."

Just boning up on my wildlife(different from wild life)after seeing this.
Neither of these is a mouse nor in Flames. What are they doing here?
As part of our Semi-Official Badger Patrol duties we're supposed to look for holes like this (with or without the cat).

enjoy the wine and any tears and smiles that come...
nine, IX, neuf, nueve, ni...
that number comes around more often than one would expect
and two would probably agree, not to mention the odd even numbers.
your daddy is listening
ludwig nee von beethoven, pearless wonder ludwig could not
"he can't hear you" is the last line in this clip from one of Gary Old Man's best roles as the composer of moonlight sonata, pretty much my favorite piece by LVB.

but your daddy's listening...
he grocks (that's a clockwork orange word made up by the author, Anthony Burgess Shale)
"I am Groot" (that's what Groot always SAYS but it's not what he MEANS)
referencing the movie Guardians of the Galaxy, neebee, so as not to confuse you too much...you have a Friday night glass with your dad and we'll be hear when you come back.

What's up next?
The Mexican Flag?
Epic Struggle of Badger & Eagle?
Russian Bear, Crying Dragon?
Song of the North & South?
I've got a wonderful feeling it will be Disney.
Nope, fraid not. Just more cows.
Did you know The Great Train was robbed in New Jersey, and not in the Pacific or Mtn. Time Zone? Indeed. Ask Edison. He said he'd be here directly.

Whoa, way to go O. Marlow-ow!
I can't fake the surprise, the shock, the awe I feel for this recommendation, The Flame Alphabet.
Every drunk poet, every blind author, every senseless idiot should at least take a stab at this bewk! It sounds like a sight for sore eyes, pardon me while I psychedelicize.
When, in the course of rodent events, one can put it no better without going on at much greater length, involving a partner is often a good idea, which as far as I KNOW FOR CERTAIN has been tried with wonderful success in Argentina, although in the USA, I sort of doubt it.
The advice to Fonda from Bruce Dern, his "guide" in the movie The Trip, 1967, comes to mind: "Whatever happens, just go ahead and die."

Have you noticed the credit given to Sr. Norman Thomas di Giovanni for having translated the work of Sr. Jorge Luis Borges? It usually reads something like, "Translated from the Spanish by NTdG."
Sr. di Giovanni was much more than a translator, more like a collaborator. Remember, Sr. Borges was blind, the blind author with a huge library, not a word of which he could read.
I can imagine some scenes from this literary partnership, but not for this post.
It is also amusing to imagine scenes from a similar partnership "on the rocks," (the rocks of marital ruin, the seawall of partnership betrayal, the reefs of neglect, the talus of the various Lovers Leaps of the world.)
These anatomical geographic features lie near the entrances to the San Pedro harbors, they sit submerged in the Golden Gates, some lurk in the Hampton Roads, they zealously guard the Verazzano Narrows, and dot the St. Lawrence Seaways of our lives, providing our journeys with some of the spice of life with fear of death.

I probably paid a buck fifty to see this in the lovely city of San Diego when it was released. I was an honors student at USNTC Schools Command, Basic Electricity & Electronics...but not for long. I essentially began dropping out at this time, eventually going to San Francisco's Island of Treasure, which lies in the center of the heart of Baghdad by the Bay's bay.
I was nexus-sized. The Bay of San Francisco di A, The Valley of Yosemite. The Peninsula of Monterey, with Merced at the center.
I'm having cute little flashbacks as I ramble, dictating to Lauren Recall, my amanuensic doll, while Melanie Melonsugar listens and smirks in the corner, looking up from her Notebewk every so often to say, "Right on" or "What BS."

And then there's Paul Revere & the Raiders. But I'm not that desperate!

"No fear, my dear!"
[Click to View YouTube Video]This video pre-dates the documentary Crumb.
Yolo County's Native Daughter.
Sophia Violet "Sophie" Crumb (born September 27, 1981) is an American-French comics artist. She is the daughter of underground comix artists Robert Crumb and Aline Kominsky-Crumb.
Crumb was born in Woodland, California and lived in the nearby farming town of Winters with her parents until she was nine years old. In 1991, she relocated with her family to Sauve, a village in Southern France. Her parents reported that they wanted to remove her from the political conservatives and Christian fundamentalists of the United States.[1] In a 2010 interview, Sophie told The Philadelphia Inquirer that her mother was afraid Sophie would "turn into a Valley girl".[2]
--Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie_Crumb
What is your condition called when you repeat the same thing over and over again and don't give a damn about the results? It is maddity instead of madness? Is it oddity instead of spontaneity? Is it imfineity instead of infinity?
"Keep on postin'."--Cheese Crumb
Most Christian fundamentalists will disapprove of R. Crumb's cross-hatching and whatever his "message" is at the moment.
He's just being himself, using his talents, TO SATIRIZE US ALL, HIMSELF INCLUDED.
Or is it parody, which is way more appreciated here in the good old USA?
