Why do so many of them look like crap, with that checkerboard effect [edit: nevermind, I guess that's only when I see them on Biglines]? Is it due to the resizing? And why can I only load one shot at a time into Biglines? Pain in the ass.

Somewhere at Kirkwood, maybe Punani's friend?

McConkey at Squaw, hike above Granite Chief (I think that's the name, anyhoo)

I don't know, I'm so good that I just kind of like, do it. I don't have to think about it.

The jpeg compression/decompression algorithms can do that sometimes.

That's why I won't have anything to do with algorithms. I abhor them. I'm algorithmist.

You've been pixelated. Your Huffman compression is lossless, but the sampling heuristic is lossy, therefore, your a losser.

Nice pants Cletus. Do you have a matching plaid chinstrap for those?

Make me, plaid boy!
I got a nice shot of you wearing a funny hat too, from the previous Feb, but you're lucky I need a scanner to hit you with that one.

This day was right after we were down at Kweed with you, so it wouldn't have happened yet. Although we did see you that day at Squaw, screaming by headed towards Granite Chief, below us while we were on the lift back out towards the rest of the mountain.

Sadly, I disconnected my collarbone from my shoulderblade about an hour later.

On the up side, before I knew that it was McGovern, as we were hiking up the Chief, I passed a guy taking a breather, looked over, and said, "Look like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue, huh?"

Didn't get a response from him.

Felt pretty silly 15 minutes later when I realized who he was, after he aired a good 30-40 footer and skied over to Cliff and Huck.

Oh well.

Now I know funny, and that's funny.

The only thing better would have been a "Pro Call Out" from the GNAR game.

"Hey McGovern, I can't believe you're pro. I'm totally better than you."

Should we allow Cletus to hide his shame yet? No, maybe tomorrow.
And I think he did tell Govy that he's totally better than him.

I don't see any pleats. But the plaid does remind me of the Catholic school girls in their pleated plaid skirts and white knee socks.
