Flame on!
DKW
In 1904, Jörgen Skafte Rasmussen established Zschopauer Motorenwerke to manufacture boiler fittings. In 1906 he purchased a textile mill in Zschopau, Saxony, and began production there in 1907. During World War I Rasmussen worked on a steam-driven vehicle ("Dampfkraftwagen"), from which the three letters DKW were derived.Drivers, start your engines.

What's it all about, Alfie?
Many things, Grasshopper.
42 yrs ago Ross and Mouse topped out in a late March snowstorm on the Salathe.
We walked out in snow.
We thought then that we knew all about March Madness.
Today, I've reached new heights of awareness.
I am truly blessed with so many friends of similar taste that I must use a scene from one of my all-time favorites and one more which my friend Millis favored as well.

When I was in the ditch with a disgraced ranger from Rocky Mountain's National park,
He wanted to redeem himself and saw me as the way and would ignore the belay.
Two very illoustrious folks were witness and it choked and floored'em to the point of action;
This may be sacaralidge yo,

I think it was Mrs Braun who third classed up bishops terraces and told me about it so!,
She said something like your not on belay that guys gonna get you kilt, and climbed away the angel! she was Beauootiful I remember that! !
Ask her maybe she remembers?
Then My only great story ! By who it's protagonist was
At the apron the Glacial one.
Six of us that I picture here taken by John. (the guy in yellow was not climbing) We were gonna' climb enchained, but something happened on YEe ground during my lead so yo're Rite right

All that meant to me though, was that
I was gonna have to do better to get McNutt butter.
Famous fatous the famous was courtesy of the auto correct

GOTD, 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.
DESIDERATA
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.
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.
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".
http://www.supertopo.com/climbing/thread.php?topic_id=1962261&msg=1962261#msg1962261
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.

well after throwing a wabbler I got to look and see what youn sent me and I am without my helmet I think that Flat top had one made of fibers that is the change made, no no no I was
wrong here is what the dry to post too dry
so I cut paste, hear,
The U.S. military adopted helmets based on Hadfield steel, called the M1 “steel pot,” in 1942. These helmets remained in service until the mid-1980s when they were replaced with helmets manufactured from a nonmetallic material. Small numbers of the M1 helmet are still used today in special missions such as shipboard firefighting."
The beginning of World War II also saw an escalation in the lethality of ballistic threats, resulting in higher fatalities and injuries. The bullets and shrapnel in World War II had greater mass and higher velocities. As was the case with World War I, soldiers initially resisted wearing helmets. They felt that the 3.5-lb helmet was too heavy, and that it limited hearing, vision, and mobility of the wearer. However, the troops quickly accepted the trade-off when they observed the lethality of the munitions on the battlefield and recognized the protection provided by the helmet."
here is a good bourbon that i used to like and i loved the price and my favorite real estate,

It Makes No Difference, we might as well speak for them, unfortunately there's only two able to speak now, Garth and Robbie. No matter, some great performances from the film. My favorite tunes, featuring the voices of Rick, Richard and Levon.
The Band ≈ It Makes No Difference
[Click to View YouTube Video]
The Band ≈ The Shape I'm In
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00VkP7v-VaM
The Band ≈ Don't Do It
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feEBEpDLTKI
According to Levon's book This Wheels On Fire, Levon and the rest of the band did not appreciate the camera's love affair with Robbie. He also mentions that they had to remix the entire effort because they forgot to turn off Robbie's microphone. Apparently he could write the lyrics but couldn't carry a tune. However; he could pick with the best of them, I can't take that away from him.

I guess the happiness stems from that Canadian National Pride. Actually they all seemed pretty happy, given the fact they didn't want to be there. I guess that fact was offset by all the party favors back stage.
Did you notice how fast Robbie picks up the lead when E.C. goes "off belay" (his pro was poorly set from the beginning)? He doesn't miss a lick.

Well as they say, money (and cocaine) doesn't talk it swears.
Helm went so far as to say that Last Waltz was "the biggest f*#kin' rip-off that ever happened to the Band", citing that he, Manuel, Danko and Hudson never received any money for the various home videos, DVDs and soundtracks released by Warner Bros. after the project.
Robbie and Martin moved in together up in the Hollywood Hills, whilst finishing up the film and as much powder as they could get their hands around.

My take away from Levon' s autobiography; Robbie took all the credit and glory
Not to mention the royalties from all the songs that he copyrighted. He did write most of the lyrics; but the music was made by the group. Consequently, there were some members a little bit hungrier than Robbie. Greed.
