Timbridge has a point and this is very true and I do regret it.....morning missile was taken...
Hey BigD thanks for the kind words back there
and Cantdog....hope you got the woodshop in order!
and no I was never with Odin but I loved the way he could play a fiddle.
re: the FIS crew somone already mentioned Gpetrics.... and there was samtheman, soul_skier, allen taylor, samurai skier, phall,..(was skijunky one of the FIS crew?)
...don't know how they squeezed in any studying at UVM, those guys really got after it...
I could never pinpoint where I'd seen the mayor on Schitts Creek before but I'm pretty sure it's Tedski
Too bad Ted's TR pics are gone..
What a great thread to stumble across after kind of forgetting about this place for a few years. I got all caught up in 10 pages what I missed for the last 6-7 years.
I used to post under a different name and never contributed anything worth mentioning but I dont remember the password.
Seeing High Life for the first time brought me here a long ... long time ago.
It was fun to watch PM gear get going.
I always enjoyed the TR's from skier666.
I've met a few of you here and there.
Ive pulled my car into BobMc's shop once or twice.
Had pizza with Viva and some others once when I lived in SD..... for that one random year of my life.
And I crashed with the Comish one night in Mammoth.
My two "what ever happened to" would be...
13
Bohdi
13, I woulda figured him for a lifer, he was all in and then one day maybe 8-9 years ago it was like blip and gone. Not a word since as far as I know.
Bohdi I kinda remember but no idea, it's been a while. I sorta remember a big comeback like "Hey I'm Back!" that lasted like 2 days and then gone again. Maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.
jibij I miss, that guy should come back.
There's a whole crew I sorta know what they're up to and where they are but haven't spoken to in years, the basom bill woodsy supu roo pinner lph and on and on. Alex P. Keaton.
13 and I are both from the Detroit area and he came to my house once for something... cant remember.
I feel like he went to med school or something.
Bohdi lived in Temecula and had a dog named dude... skied Mammoth.
He always invited me to go to a bar in Pacific Beach to watch Ohio State football games and while it was cordial of him.... it wasnt my thing.
A bar full of Buckeyes and you're in a Michigan shirt.
While that might have been a nightmare scenario for some.... I've never been a big fan of the big 10.
I went to the University of Tennessee and my first year there we won the nation championship in 98' so.... I guess Im a Tennessee fan..... which is highly unfortunate these days.
Edit: I completely forgot about the time the reverend posted a pic of some people partying in Idaho and he was standing next to two good friends of mine. Turned out they were neighbors or something.
The Force is strong tonight.
i dont think ejp was a mag
he runs a sucessfull framing/contracting bidness and i have a bro who wood butchers for him occaisionally
last i heard 13 was running a motor city starfucks
funny thing is he roomed with my touring partner mr toaster at the gmd for a season
whatever mrs. buttercups
its obvious you got no tight lines game
best stick to web trollin laps
Have we covered snow_slider? ice? I seem to recall he was somewhat wrongfully attacked after calling out a maggette, and slinked away?
sick and ashamed and happy and wondering where Gin is these days.
Yeah I'm not exactly sure why snow_slider left, I wasn't aware of him being called out over anything in particular. He's a good guy, doesn't live far from me, I've been to his house and he came out to Solitude with Tipp and stayed with me maybe like geez almost 10 years ago? I am not a facebook person but I check it from time to time and see him on there. I think the big thing for him was having kids, they had been been trying for a long time.
Gin, I wish that guy would come back. What a seriously good thoughtful funny guy. We don't have many (any?) Quebecois these days. Speaking of Quebecois, remember dude le skibum? Guy was kinda wacky but had the most hard-core skiing story I think I've ever heard, hiking like 20 miles out of the BC backcountry solo holding his intestines in with one hand after he got speared by a branch....ouch.
SFB,
Whatever happened to Luffski? He was one of the most entertaining posters on the site for a while.
Welcome back, jfrost.
Was that Dude le or his buddy Gorillo or something?Quote:

they are all my real friends but don't post and like Ice I don't facebook.
Bohdi was 86ed from that place for being drunk and belligerent (in the morning). So he transfered to another place that showed OSU games that happened to be a mile from my place. Saw his Exterra one fall Saturday AM and followed him there to say "hi". We had a falling out a year or two earlier, so not much to say, but his GF came to my car with me to meet my then dog. But she really just wanted to get away from him for a bit.

Yeah now I think it was Gorillo too, I can't find it though.
I thought there was another version of it somewhere, but I don't see it

Whoa.......just got an email from Gorilla, who impaled himself ona stump in the Rogers Pass b/c when his sluff knocked him over a ledge. Check this shit out from his writing...
... Fuck, Fuck, Fuck, I got a two inch hole in my abdominal wall and there is a chunk of intestines hanging out. Talk about your hernia ! I secure it as best I can using my long underwear to hold it all in ( yeah, that didn't work). I decide not to tell her what I find.
She arrive back by my side and I get a lick and a kiss from...the dog. " On y va." I follow her tracks in the fresh snow. At every twenty paces or so I have to stop and gather myself. The first section is flat traversing, I can handle that fine. My right leg only moves about one quater of it's range and I can't lift it off the snow. All I can do is glide it along kinda like a limp leg.
The second section is a not so steep downhill. I have to put pressure on my bad leg and I have no control. I use my good leg to steer. Every bump provoque a braveheart-when-he-gets-tortured-at-the-end type pain. Mighty looks at me and smiles, a kind, loving, peaceful smile, the kind of smile that will get you to walk 3km out of the woods with your intestines hanging out.
I'm at the one step at a time pace, not knowing when I gonna pass out for good. We keep going till we get to the mine field. All I can think about is this is gonna hurt. Mighty leads the way finding the smouthest path. At this point when I rest on my ski poles I pass out. I loose touch for a second and have to slap my ass back to reality. How I would like to just lay there and roll into a warm sleep.
So we make it one steep closer to the road and we can hear th cars and trucks. One more push and we there. Breaks are shorter and we move fast. The last crawl is up the snow bank to the rollo onto the road.
What was it and hour and a half till the ambulance got there. No one wanted to transport us to town. Mighty was fighting hard, but to no avail. I was left on my hands and knee in the slush on the side of the highway in the wet snow for a little while till she braught me a sleeping pad, covered me with a sleeping bag and a bivy sac. I was cold, very cold. Some rangers get there and decide they wanna move me into a truck. They try and move me but I start puking from the pain. I tell ya puking when your avbs are ripped ( in a literal meaning) and your intestines are hanging out. The pain of the puking makes me puke even more. I have to make myself stop...
Still at this point no one knows that my intestines are out of my stomack and in my long underwear.
The ambulance finaly gets there and they load me up. Revelstoke only town where the ambulance attendants wear avalanche transievers, I found that kinda cool. Inside they ask me what happened again. Talking is reduced to a whisper and it hurts. You use your abs a lot when you talk. I tell them exactly what I know. They cut my pants and underwear fully exposing my abdomen and jowls for that matter. She was kinda cute the ambulance attendant and I was laying there naked with my bowls and bawls exposed, gezz what a first expression.
The ski out extended my cut to six inches and I had a foot of intestines hanging out.
Heal up, Gorilla. You did good. Helluva gnarly tale!
Still gnar.
That was fun to read.
I miss the old TGR days, boy we had fun. I continue to see the many good friends made here (Meatdrink and Meats of Evil, Viva, Barnballs, SuPu - and sometimes get to hear Splat's voice).
also - in 2009, we all friended each other on FB (there was a thread), so I see everyone, still. GoNads fucking rocks her snowmobile, BadRoo explores Australia in cool cars, Divegirl and Lego have a shredding maggette in the making, Beandip attends a lot of conferences, Tuffy is a family man, Mrs Roo is a PhD and remarried, Meatdrink has entered the concert producing arena with his incredible Ogden Twilight Series, Viva moved far away, and for Ice: I'm on my 3rd Allroad.
Ha, I'm still on my first one, an '04. I mostly stay away from the facebook but I was on there because of this thread and saw this gem from phUnk:
"People don't think black holes be like it is, but it do." -Stephen Hawking (rip)
Dude le skibum, he was a crazy quebecois. I invited to join us in Poland cause he just happened to post he was looking for somewhere new to go ski. We drove him crazy calling him Dudely the whole trip. I can still hear him chastising us - "It's Dood Luh skibum, not Dudely skibum!" Once he said that, it was just Dudely.

Anyone pm him lately ?
Heh - I remember we all signed up shortly after they took FB off campus just to play Scrabulous. I also remember when we all sent each other Gmail invites when that was starting. I often get asked how in the world I got such a short gmail address.
Stump and Woodsy are doing the family thing, a couple other old maggots whose real names I know but whose handles I have forgotten (Pete, Paul) are as well.
I still miss Tonghands the most.
