Skiing in Australia

**Ski Beaver** · 08-24-2004, 09:47 PM

tjb, thanks for kind of making it feel ok to miss a weekend.

Still sounds good though.

Anyway, I have a good mates 21st on this weekend so this weekend is off too.

The weekend after I will be there and a mate is coming along to make a movie as well. Hopefully see you round on the 4th/5th September.

The season is looking like it may struggle to get to the magic 3 metre base depth.

Such an amzing 2 and a half months though.

I'll keep throwing up the rooster tails, you keep eating them.

TJB, had to be dragged down there like the Biatch he is. Yeah the snow wasn't great, but I was super stoked to be skiing still. Weird that way!. Even went over to Smigs and scared some children on the duplex T-Bar. Hopefully this High system moves off and we can go back to it being kinda wintery.

Are you clowns from ski.commie.au?

**Ski Beaver** · 08-24-2004, 11:18 PM

nope.

**janus** · 08-25-2004, 12:36 AM

ski.comesuckmyballs.com.au is way too boring these days, I scan the topics, but there's shit all related to actual skiing, just a bunch of people talking smack.

A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked,"What are all those clocks?"

St. Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move."

"Oh," said the man, "Whose clock is that?"

"That's Mother Teresa's. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie."

"Incredible," said the man. "And whose clock is that one?"

St. Peter responded, "That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life."

"Where's John Howard'sclock?" asked the man.

"Howard's clock is in Jesus' office. He's using it as a ceilingfan."

Yo Janus, this is a skiing thread - show some respect.

**tjb** · 08-30-2004, 03:20 AM

SB, I hate to say it, but this morning the R word was fscking up our snowpack bigtime.

The base isn't quite what it was on Sunday is the delicate way of putting it.

**Ski Beaver** · 08-30-2004, 03:41 AM

eeek.

Hoping the snow starts to fall and the *R* farks off.

I don't think people realize just how little work I actually do.

Good stoke there Ski Beaver
Spring is coming for you. Still good turns and a more relaxed feel. Almost better than winter. I said Almost.

**Ski Beaver** · 09-08-2004, 12:32 AM

Spot on Toque.

Umm, but you're a snowboarder!

**Boundary Rider1** · 09-09-2004, 01:02 AM

Its gone all waterlogged and soupy down here at the moment. Early week was excellent, classic spring conditions , but its been either pissing down with Rain or sleet the rest of the time !. Still skied full days though, even though at times I was questioning my motivations. Looks like things may be on the rise soon though, with significant snowfalls forcast and much cooler temps hopefully.

**Ski Beaver** · 09-09-2004, 01:31 AM

Are you still down there or ar you back in Sydney?

I will be there Sunday on the Gotama's hopefully see you there.

And good turns last weekend too.
