I usually skip the boulder humping articles, which i've found there's a lot out there lately.

There was not a selection for "to pass the time while sitting on the toilet". So I went with the dream of travel.

I've an idea that yo can do with your old climbing magazines. Take them to the libraries and schools around the Red. Powell, Wolf and Lee counties. Maybe it would inspire some of the kids to do something other than what they usually get into in these counties. Sex(pre-teen and teenage birth rates for these counties is astronomical) Drugs(bath tub meth, Oxcontin, Benzodiazapine, paint) No rock and roll because they don't have electricity.

I remember growing up as a kid and getting into so much trouble because there was nothing to do. I can only imagine what it'd been like if I'd have discovered the secret world in my back yard.

I've thought this 1000 times...
I also think that climbing has an eye for trouble-makers/thrill-seekers.

awesome idea.

two reasons, no vote.

days like today when the payoff to all the vague bs of a job is so ineffably inarticulate that i need to fill the void with something similarly absurd but fun.

a few other days when i know i'll be able to get out soon (or just did) and the beautiful, exotic excitement of it wants to know that it's not just fantasy.

cause saying fuck all that shit just gets you so far.
