    Is Hacksaw a gaper?

    He said he's too old to jump off stuff. Who is this guy?

    If you have to ask, and post something as dumb as this poll, you're obviously the gaper.
    Or this week's most unoriginal troll.

    ... meh ... pretty weak troll ... the bubbly boyish enthusiasm is kinda cute, but there's not even a failed attempt at subtlety.

    I give it a D. Lurk moar.

    I hear the dude haz, like, rode helicopters 'n stuff, throwed bombs with his bear hands ... he just laughs at avalanches that destroy entire trees!

    He's old, sure, and his eyesite's goin', yah - but he still playz football like a pro, he just puts a beacon in the ball.
    I saw he caught a 52-yard pass and he was trackin' the ball just by the beeps of his old F1!

    Dude is like, made of radiation.

    And if you step out of line at Loveland, he just might bury you in the snow to teach you a lesson. He's done it before -- with the Sheriff's blessing, I might add.

    I boiled my thermometer, and sure enough, this spot, which purported to be two thousand feet higher than the locality of the hotel, turned out to be nine thousand feet LOWER. Thus the fact was clearly demonstrated that, ABOVE A CERTAIN POINT, THE HIGHER A POINT SEEMS TO BE, THE LOWER IT ACTUALLY IS. Our ascent itself was a great achievement, but this contribution to science was an inconceivably greater matter.

    You know what else about Hacksaw that he was too modest to tell you?

    He doesn't need to jump off shit because he can ski uphill the same way the rest of us go downhill.

    Sensei is too humble! Perhaps he fears growing head so large that no avalanche balloon will be needed when he again rides the white dragon ...?

    Yong Zhee-Wei, I will tell you.

    At the top of that run, Sensei did not huck, it is so.
    Instead, he skiied smoothly onto the sky, ploughing great furrows through the powdery clouds.
    Alas, we could not figure eight him.

    Later, after scrabbling to the left at the water's edge, he removed his skis for the walk to his helicopter. You see, it was a breezy day, so the waves on the lake were choppy, and Sensei did not wish to mar the mirror-perfection of his bases as he walked over them.
    (Even then, Sensei was a cautious man, so he regularly left his helicopter parked on the center of the nearest lake.)

    I was privileged that day to carry his dog, Dea, to the 'copter.
    (Have I said too much?!?)

    Well, the resemblances are remarkable--tall as a treetop, hard drinking, legendary renaisance men. Hacksaw and the sensei of whom you speak have never been seen in the same place at the same time. It could be.

    I know but I ain't sayin'.

    Ah, ojíisan, I forget myself.

    Here among the young saplings and fresh reeds, it is easy to forget who shades us all -
    That there stand among us still the ancient towering cedars,
    who were there when Ullr first dropped a knee;
    who drank with the Sensei when he himself was young;
    who watched sadly as Hephaestus in his smoking forge wrought the first heel-chains;
    who wept as the masses willingly bound their heels
    and their minds.

    Is Hacksaw a gaper?

    That depends. I guess you could say yes.

    That is, if your definition of gaper is one of the most knowledgeable backcountry skiers out there, then yeah, huge fucking gaper. Gapetastic even.

    I never thought I'd say this, but both of these responses are less interesting than DW's

    Cheers to you
