Don't call me Bulgemelon. It's Buglemelon.Met myself a comin' county welfare line
I was feelin' strung out, hung out on the line
Saw myself a goin', down to war in June
All I want, all I want is to write myself a tune
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
When I couldn't even talk to you
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication failed
If you see the answer, now's the time to say
All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
When I couldn't even talk to you
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
When I couldn't even talk to you
Saw the people standin' thousand years in chains
Somebody said it's diff'rent now, look, it's just the same
Pharoahs spin the message, round and round the truth
They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
When I couldn't even talk to you
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
When I couldn't even talk to you
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
When I couldn't even talk to you

Hey, brujo, thanks for all the assists in the old league, eh?

Nothing is ever REALLY deleted Mouse. Maybe it's still floating around out there in Supertopo land and just needs someone to grab it. Just ask.

Bro, Bellows
Not the Kentucky whiskey bellows, partners in pleasure , the gentle taste of the partners choice, or the club old school fresher deep bourbon I'd, relish the stuff for my private, consumpt,
Taste in line to IWHarper, bought out by Beam brands, and now again cut loose from them the end of true Bellows has come.Luxco, bought 'em
it was a great sippin' whiskey to the last, but it's time has come.
More to your point number three bellows at number one,
that the doctor said to not sit and swell
Bellow back from a treadmill
what's it to you?
Bellowing at the wall or the moon with moist eyes.
Bellows that blow
Bellows that blow
Bellows that blow
SPARKS TO FLAMES
The smoke is not bellow able
Bellows are used to make flames
Flames are made by blowing air, adding oxygen to embers that spark the Flames!
I am your weak monarch, the ides have past, say so mouser the Flames are yours.
If you have a doctors pesrcription and the fortitude lets just do this.
The rules are better hashed out with the hier to the thrown,
As I did not tell you too, he threw up and took down as fast as large mouth bass, a thread
ask him his DOGZ are cute and playful in the eyes is were you see canine zz smiles.
but his ability agile and swift to adjust pictures side to side from over each other makes him hands down the one!
how's he do that anywhowy
my money's on him
his prowess and savy to between the lines read and if I promise not to burn the place down ... IcanT make a pact befoe the rules but I and my Fercoktt or Fercockta drivel can best be full purged?
I fall on my sword.
FLAMES 2 0r flames II or whatever you neat mind seizes on as to go forward even with just the posters of old.movies I canot post my collection of pics of movie posters were was I gonna go but to bed?

Long-time local
“Grade VI don’t mean much
in the Ditch”
I’m taking my photos with me out the door.
Too many fast times.
Too many climbers.
Too much stupidity.
I can only hack so many routes on my once-inviolate face and pinnacles (yeah, they’re coming with me.)
Clouds Rest is a bully, lording it over the rest of the forum.
Glacier Point is still so juvenile and tied to mammy’s apron strings and the language that he uses is just awful.
Lost Arrow keeps babbling.
The River is cool.
The falls are really cool, except in the late summer and fall.
The list of reasons goes on and on.
But what really got to me was that kid Honnold.
What’s the use of being so forbidding if he jumps on you, then jams down and fires off El Cap, and tops it with a quickie with that slut Tis-a-ack?
There’s nothing here for me any more.
I’m going to Tierra del Fuego.
Let the door slam REAL HARD when I haul my butt outta here.
Cmac, good luck with this hard-headed buncha touron-lovin’ crags, cuz that’s all any of them are anymore.
Wake up and smell the Peets, you molehill wannabes!
WaddyGOTD, buddy, calm the frank down, please.
I have a point in using that word.
I have been accused, and rightly so, of being, like, hey there, say, Jude:
Why the obscurity? Why not say it in plain words, whatever it is that you must say?
If one has something to say, say it plain, and why say it again? This is a question asked of us in Talking Heads vs. Psycho Killer.
You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything. When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed. Say something once, why say it again? --Psycho Killer.
It's not often easy to experience life but one needs to go quietly amid the noise and haste of life to enjoy it more fully, as Max Ehrmann writes in his poem, which was immensely popular in the sixties.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
--Max Ehrmann, "Desiderata".
I am not afraid to say I'm sorry, because there is love between us, no matter the short time we've been acquainted.
And you know what Erich Segal wrote, don't you, about love in Love Story?
He said, "Love means never having to say you're sorry."
That, however, is a fatuous remark, in my book. It's "pop," and it's cant and it is pointless, because love is many things, not all of which are explicable or understood easily.
So let me ask you, Millisecond (a term of endearment, m'dear), to divulge your climbing history in a manner which is more easily understood, FOR THE SAKE of your own integrity and that of The Flames.
For sure, I'm sorry if I offended you and I won't bother to say it again, my friend.
[Click to View YouTube Video]Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
WILDEY

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
