Go ahead, share 'em if you got 'em.

1) Yesterday I went for my first annual physical in two years; I guess that makes it a biannual physical. After the preliminary height, weight, blood pressure, and history foreplay, the doc gives me a johnnie and tells me to strip down to my underwear and put it on. She excuses herself from the room to give me some privacy whilst I change. Now this is probably a good time to mention that my new doc is 15 years my junior, long golden hair, and drop dead gorgeous, so I'll gladly go anything she asks.

She re-enters the exam room after 45 seconds, has me drop my drawers to the floor, pulls aside the robe, and gives a thorough, two handed inspection of the region commonly under my belay loop had I been wearing a harness, which of course I was not at the time. Just about the time I am thinking she owes me some flowers and a box of chocolates, I get spun around and my prostate gets a probing that would make an alien abductor blush. I pass everything with flying colors, and in many ways its hard to hide my excitement.

So, first of all, if I passed the prostrate exam, does that make me a perfect a$$hole?

And second, given the nature of the impending exam, did she really need to leave the room so I could disrobe?

2) My 21 yo son has a girl "friend" home for the last 36 hours. Despite the fact I am home all day, I have seen the pleasant enough lass for a total of maybe 50 minutes. Sunday night I heard the two of them come into the house at 2:30 am, and the next time they leave his room is at 4 pm when they got dressed to go catch a sunset (it was cloudy, but they didn't know that) so that they could say they accomplished something that day.

Is this normally how one entertains "just a friend?" I guess I must have missed that class while off climbing.

3) And when did airline snacks start costing $8 for a box of assorted vacuum sealed pockets of air with maybe 20 cents worth of "savory" fiberboard?

I won't comment on what seems very obvious. But if the kid asks you to buy condoms, try to stay out of the house after you deliver them.

It's not a modesty thing. The switch to turn all the cameras on is in her office, not in the examination room.

2) Is this normally how one entertains "just a friend?"

Sounds like a pretty good idea to me.

Is that what they do in the back end of the airplane? Are you saying your climbing shoe sponsor and energy bar sponsors make you fly in Economy?

i wish that people would always let short people in front of them at live music. everyone would be able to see if we were all shortest to tallest.

and how many f-ing pictures do people need to take, don't people realize that holding their camera in the air taking a hundred drunken pictures is annoying.

and drunk women should not be allowed to wear spikes on the dance floor

thanks for giving me a little rant space

She didn't need to leave the room to give you privacy. I am a doctor, too. I have better things to do than stand around and wait for people to undress. I have 187 charts that need to be reviewed, 82 x-rays that need QA, and a dozen other patients waiting on me. When you're ready for me, I'll be back.

Why did you pass up the prostate exam? You had the opportunity for a hottie to tickle you in a way that no other woman can. I'd be eating that sh#t up.

cleanliness is next to godliness,
so saiz the cliche;

this claim reinforces my dirtbag ambitions.

"i'd rather die in the dirty gutter,
than sink down slowly into golden sand."-rusty miller

all my life adult i have chosen filth and poverty;
i should say, shades of filth, and glimpses of poverty.

i lived on the rails during my college years,
swinging seasons in the valley as coin permitted;

i've abandoned three high-paying corporate gigs;
instead i've chosen the beautiful uncertainty and staggered flow
of self-employment.

i chase the wind when the wind leads me.
i never again will sit in a gypsum-faced room,
caged by double-pain windows,

im my own king,
im also my own servant.

The next time someone uses the term "hash tag" in casual conversation, I am going to bean them in the noggin with a can of corned beef and potatoes and yell, "You're it!"

f*#k rock climbing. f*#k rock climbers. f*#k all y'all with your stupid beards and your puffy coats and your trucker caps and your snobby condecending f*#king attitudes. f*#k you and your stupid attention-whorey blogs and your numberchasing and your shallow idea of friendship. newsflash: i don't climb anymore. go find some other sap to belay-bitch you on your chossy project. don't hear from some dipshit for two years and all of a sudden you're my best buddy cuz you don't have a partner for your sierra trip. sorry all your other preferred partners said no and you had to scrape the bottom of the barrel. get my shifts covered at work, pack up the truck, get ready..."oh hey bro, gotta cancel cuz i'm getting married!" f*#k you i hope you get divorced you fairweather friend. thank god for singletracks and full suspension bikes so i can just load up the bike and the dog and don't have to sweat the flakefest anymore or hang out with cheap boring d-bags who think being a climber makes them special. also, dh mountain biking is way more dangerous than climbing so get over yourselves.
