Oh, because Tanner and CR are pro and better than everyone else so it's ok? Or you just wanted everyone to know that phUnk knows Tanner and CR? (see ego post)

I heard that skier is a TOTAL asshole! But I've never met him in person, and I've heard he's pretty cool face-to-face....Quote:

Fall seems to slow life down a little, and I’ve really noticed a lot of people with nothing to do at this time of year. There’s no need to let this fabulous season go to waste by sitting around whining about how much we wish we were already skiing, we might as well do something productive to gear up for it. I’ve put together a list of ten things to keep you ski scrubs occupied until winter, all of them are meant to make your life easier and give you more time to ski.
#1. First things first....Get your lazy ass in shape. Remember early season last year and how much of a kick in the junk it was on your first hike? Or how much your legs burned after ten turns? Well get off the couch and start running, walking, riding a bike, get a three month pass to the gym, etc. Whatever your style of exercise is, get into it now. You’ll be happy you did, and it could help you avoid an early season injury by already being fit and not working your body into the ground on day one.
#2. Bring your ski’s in and kiss them. Check them over, hug them, get them tuned and waxed. While you’re at it, get your tuning station set up for doing repairs later. Go steal your mom’s iron, get your p-tex and wax ready so that when your skis take their first hit, you’ll already be on your game and have them patched up in no time.
#3. Out with the old, in with the new. Go through all your B Team gear that’s sitting around collecting dust (or last years gear) and sell it before it loses it’s value. Spit shine it, patch it, duct tape it, do whatever you need to do to get it back in action and sell it on the Biglines’ Online Buy and Sell, or at your local ski swap. Use that coin to upgrade your current collection of ski gear, I’m sure you can think of a million winter toys that you could spend your hard-earned cash on.
#4. Get stoked and plan a ski trip. Biglines has tons of articles to get you stoked on skiing, and lots of these articles showcase sick new lines and places, so use them to your advantage and start researching areas you’d like to visit. Use this info to help plan a trip somewhere you’ve never skied before, road tripping to check out new terrain is a surefire way to get you motivated.
#5. Get educated. If you’re planning on travelling in the backcountry this year, you should sharpen your snow skills. Read Tony Daffern’s “Avalanche Safety for Skiers, Climbers and Snowboarders”, or other snow safety literature. The more you read about it, the more you will learn from it. Now is the time to sign up for a recreational avalanche safety course, or your Level 1. Take a wilderness first aid course or update some certifications that you may already have. You might as well brush up on those skills now so it’ll be second nature when you really need them.
#6. Practice beacon searches and replace your batteries. Wear out last years’ batteries by practicing searching. Do it throughout your house while your room mate is sleeping, or go to a park and hide them in the leaves. It’s not nearly the same as searching for a person buried ten feet deep, but you may discover that your beacon just don’t run like she used to, and wouldn’t you like to know that before you’re ten feet under. Don’t forget to put some fresh batts in ‘er when you’re done, and practice again once the snow starts to fall, and then again, and again, and again.
#7. Get into the Christmas spirit... Say what?!?! Make your family some Christmas presents now while you have the time. It’s way cheaper to do it yourself, and family really love the heartfelt junk that’s made by your own two paws. Learn to knit, crochet, paint, whatever, but do it now so you’ll have every day to shred when Jolly Old St Nick sends us ten feet of pow for Christmas.
#8. Hit the beach. If you’ve been working hard all summer, then you certainly deserve some fun in the sun. Seat sales are killer this time of year, and a quick trip to Mexico is just what the doctor ordered to get your mind off pow for a bit. Take a road trip to the closest coast, and check out some beaches nearby, say hello to the ocean and breathe in the open air of the sea. While you’re working on your base tan, your local ski hill will be working on a base of it's own.
#9. Winterize your pad. Collect firewood, fix the leaky roof, and repair the seals on windows and doors so you don’t loose heat unnecessarily. Get your winter tires ready to go, and have your car winterized so she’s ready to haul your ass up to the hill every day no matter what the conditions.
#10. PARTEEEEEE!!! Go hang with your pals. Be social, be on the scene, get crazy for the fall so that it’s out of your system by the time winter rolls around. Or you can see it as being in training for the winter when the real partying begins. Most importantly, hang with your non-skiing pals to maintain your friendships with them, and then graciously wave goodbye when the snow flies and the mountains swallow you whole.
As you anticipate the upcoming winter, try to be patient. Fall is a great time of year, you should embrace it by prepping for winter properly this year. At least keep busy so you’re not driving other people crazy with all your ski talk, and pray to the snow gods that it won’t last too long....
Bring on the snow!!!

Word. Sadly, I don't have a photo/skier credit. I'm guessing it's Ostness at Hood and it's a number of years old.Quote:

You just can't get good waffles North of the Mason Dixon line.

The Republisheep accuse Kerry of being a "Waffler" and he is from the north, New England!
Brett's an ass who occassionally has me laughing my head off. I can never figure him out. He posts great stoke, then starts this anti-stoke thread.
Waffle House is da shizz. Anyone ever count the # of waffle houses between Charlotte and Atlanta? Damn. Sometimes 2 per exit.
Baker Boy in HS = Trumpet player and Jr. ROTC
How hard is it to believe people don't like racial slurs?
Why is Iceman the only one who knows how to pronouce Niger?
The summit is coming soon -- if a couple of you haters wanna put together a cage match, I promote that like Don freakin' King. "The Action in Jackson."
Odin is a turnip and uncle molester.
I think a 2.2 mile - top to bottom race will cover any differences we need to settle. Hotdog the Movie style? ;)Quote:
