Skully: re frozen falls in the Snake River canyon. Drove to the "big city" today (Twin Falls). Lotsa stuff on the 500' deep walls there---maybe frozen sewer seeps;)
I think some people have climbed on them on occasion. I can walk you into a north-facing one on a 300' deep side canyon a few miles from here, mostly on a road.
Seriously though-----I used up a lot of luck ice climbing, and one day, I was driving an Alaskan friend up Little Cottonwood Canyon by SLC to go skiing. He saw some waterfalls, I was concentrating on crap roads and traffic, and he was chattering about how cool they looked and we should go climb on them.
Out of my subconscious comes: "I think I've used up my waterfall climbing luck."
Soon as I said it-----I went: "woooh----where did that come from." Then I realized my inner-self knew something I had not realized.
"I had used up my ice-climbing luck!"
Lots of rock since then, no ice.

1. Your current consumption: None so far. Just got in from a shopping expedition, getting started.
2. At least one inflammatory comment: Steve G was hidden in one of the Wings of Steel haulbags.
3. Why you are drunk and typing on McTopo instead of doing something worthwhile, like driving to the crag: Not drunk yet. Going to Norway next week. Busy. +5 here and pouring rain. -20 in Oslo and beautiful snow and sun. Mountain weather. Bought a pile of stuff at MEC for my cousins today.
And, as you know, Norway is THE HOME OF THE TROLLS!!!666 So maybe I'll bring one home, or breed with one, or something like that. That would definitely top PTPP's lame-ass sheep. I mean, trolls hang out under bridges and eat goats, and probably sheeps too.

1 - Have had none in 4 days and as any DWARF will tell you, - I'm not Happy.
2 - Hey Fatty, If I'm being tooled by a hot cop-chick and inadvertently Schwing some wood, who is the harasser and whom is the harassee ?
3 - You guys are all great to have around until the guests show up.

2.You're all a bunch of pucking fosers.
Ha! Wayne, you're so hopelessly working class. "Posers" indeed! Culturally sophisticated Americans like Rokjox show their erudition by calling us bozos "Poseurs"
Man, when he laid that lash on me, I was awestruck, and immediately capitulated to his superiority and had to admit that yes, there were fewer shitters in Yosemite now than there were in whenever the Golden Age was. I felt so ashamed. So... ordinary.
And what's that sh#t about Nippazzano Chianti Classico Riserva Are you, like, totally weird or something? Do you really drink stuff like that, or do you just look up wine names on the internet and then try to impress us? Real Americans like me enjoy something straight and normal like a bottle of '03 Louis Bernard Chateauneuf-du-Pape with our dinner of Provencal-style Moussaka.

Perhaps Canuckleheads should be called Hoseurs. Has a nice ring to it.

1. One pint Jameson. 3.5 sorta cool-looking camoflauge miller high-lifes given to me in a red and gold box of 24 by what's probly my last real client
2. World wide oil production reached it's peak. The money men saw this and pushed the price north of a benjamin. The world economy crashed. A falsly engineered recovery. The oil price rises as we speak. Which will crash the economy. Rinse and repeat.
3. 2 years ago I came loose on WI 5 (I know, I know). Busted up my talus. Part of it lost blood flow. Self employed - uninsurable. Now I hobble around trying to feed myself and loved ones while fending off the suits who want their money. No climbing for me tomorrow. But I've done more in 33 years than most see on tv in 50. At least I'm not stuck making shoes for 11 cents an hour. Or shorting my daughters future to make money today.

David, did du Pape smell like poop? It should. Lucky bastard. I had the Nipp. at work tonight. Ritchie was in a good mood. I offered to open a Molettiere Taurasi that i just got. He had to one-up me. "Save your stash" he said. That's one reason I love the guy.

Alas, this was second-rate C-du-P and the nose wasn't properly barnyardy. Decent swill nonetheless.

nope joey. no shuffleboard at the liars bench.
just electronic dart and a HUGE tv and a few of those stupid little gambling video games. two of the speakers are blown so they just turn up the last one.
robert plant was making good of it though, that last and scratchy speaker.
captain you are right sir. you are right. it all levels out, just sometimes those seas are rough and dark with whales all about with those yellow eyes just looking at you without familiar emotions.
good morning all. off to do my chores.
