THanks for spraying for me y'all! He he he. Like I told Artsay, I do feel that I've invented that route now. I'm still super psyched.

I think it's kewl to spray for your friends to friends. Especially when it's really exciting like your hardest send or your first 12. It's just nice to know.

Mcrib, I love you anyway darlin. Even if you don't like my spray!

I don't see the difference between a person sending their first 5.10 or their first 5.13. Both are great accomplishments. Many of these people might be too modest to spray for themselves, so what's wrong with a friend giving them some props on a job well done? I love hearing about people having fun, pushing themselves, and climbing old or new routes that were once hard for them. I have as much respect and admiration for a person sending their first 5.10 as I do for someone doing their first 5.13. So spray away y'all whether it is a 5.7 trad route or a 5.12 sport route...

Nobody laugh; I'm making a point. When I led a short, easy 5.6 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: (I SAID NO LAUGHING!) this summer, my truly accomplished climbing friends couldn't brag on me enough. Brian and Gretchen cheered me up the rock! Jeff and Theresa were so happy for me. Artsay and Sir acted like I had just soloed El Cap. We love each other and we honor one another regardless of the accomplishment! That's what I love about this sport! Spray on!
What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

I agree. I guess what I was trying to say is that it's fantastic to hear when someone has accomplished something really great for them. Dipsi, you rock.

That's awesome Spragwa. I think that's one of the hardest 11c's around.

I think the problem with people spraying on this site is that they just list a route name and not a grade... like everybody in the world knows where "such and such" is and its grade. All of you are in violation of the Proper Spray Ethics and you will be punished unless you start listing grades! I don't want to turn anyone into the FCC but I'm tired of looking this shit up in the online guide.

Hey, I walked my dog the other day. We went all the way to the corner and back. I only fell once.
