Hey Grugster, once you finish up on your Lucille send here is a nice un-climbed off width through a big roof for you to plan for.




I even have a great route name you are welcome to; "Percosets in a Pez dispenser".

Sure, everyone loves an underdog, but don't you all realize that Jaybro, one of the best offwidth climbers ever, took several tries to get this? I'd bet against just knowing that. (On the other hand, I just got some new offwidth pants)

Nice looking wide roof thing there, Philo.

That was a long time ago though, eons in offwith years! It's been onsighted twice, maybe a third of the people who have done it.

That eeyonkee is a strong mofo, and not one to give in to his own doubt-talk!


Good point, drljefe. Might want avoid the 9th, Greg.

My money is on the third try.
Wish I could be there to spectate and cheer, but I was at the Voo last weekend so need to find cooler environs.
May the off-width gods smile upon you!

So....

He did not send and is now upping the beer intake so he can gain that extra 7 pounds back.

That means that
Elcapinyoazz and Zip are winners. Do you guys have paypal? If so post up your accounts.

These people should send their $5 to Elcapinyoazz
• Crimpie
• Captain…. Or Skully
• Steve W

• Donini

And these people need to send their $5 to Zip.

Golly gee Mrs. Cleaver, I'm a winner. Let me think on this a bit, I'll probably just have ya'll send my winnings to Locker and then hit him up for a resole at a later date.

"Odds on Will and Zip actually getting paid???"...


The man code specifically states that you gotta pay your bets. Live by the code.

I had a friend not pay me on a $10 bet once. From that point on I filled out every subscription card I could find. His 8 year old son got playboy, penthouse, oui, etc. They got tons of product lititature from all sorts of trade. Then he finally paid me when he received a phone call telling him where to show up as he had signed up for the national guard. His wife still is a little pissed 8 or so years later.

So no I will not pay if someone does not honor their bet, but I will hound the hell out of them.
