Clif not following u buddy... Pigsteak can u explain how my comment was meant in humor and that I really didn't think u were calling me out on blue chalk.... Nah, nevermind, not worth it. I think that was cliffs car.
no seriously... it is my bad.
a movie we all love just reminded me that you really don't have to be skinny to be a good climber...
most of you guys are probably as huge as this guy and could cram so muck chalk down the mad tickers throat that he'd be crappin' blue till Christmas!!!
And on the third day, God created the Red River Gorge(by conjecture), and he saw that it was good.
So, we were climbing at Bibliotech on Saturday. One of our crew asked about beta on a route to me, and I jokingly yelled up, "do you want me to put some blue tickmarks up there for you?"
A kid next to us heard this, and said "I have some blue chalk!" He must have seen the confused look that I gave him, because he quickly added, "hehe, just kidding." Talking to him later, we did find out that he was from Alaska. Pretty sure that he was the guilty one.
Anyway, we chatted it up a bit, he's a good, friendly kid, as already mentioned, just a bit naive. I didn't call him out on the blue chalk, or tell him that I knew who he was. I just dropped a couple hints that the blue chalk was lame. I think he has gotten the clue by this point.
