Clint threatened to physically harm me if I put in a bolt. It is all his fault.

Seems to be a common thread.....I thought D. Wood did the same thing on Edge of Darkness?

More people need to post of on how they 1st met Mr. Mud.

He's an ass.....drinks milk with a tad of coffee.

Mudworm hasn't posted much lately. How did you and Mud meet (and tell the tale of the broken finger).

And Uber, you still checking in here at all? How'd you meet the evil genius?

Salad?

Don't forget to pick up some lederhosens.....

Seriously, without Mudworm, this site has no source of grace, charm, intelligence and decorum. Why doesn't she post anymore?

Blame it on Mud. I told him that I would boycott the forum if he kept saying DIE. And see what he did?

Cool. Learned another word -- had to look up "decorum".

And then I got confused with grammar -- See, "without a, b has no c" does not necessarily mean that "with a, b will have c", right? I think I need to attend an ESL school, and Brad, you need to fix your expectation.

Hmmm...I think I met Mud the first time at your place, Brad. You hosted like a dozen scumbag climbers for that weekend's AAC gathering. He looked skinny and had a good voice. The second time... that was after F4 said to me in the gym that "You should climb with my buddy; he will love to take you up the Rostrum." That following weekend, we did climb the Rostrum (story here)-- the first climb we did together (aka the climb he did on our wedding day). He didn't say much that weekend and even less on the climbs. Turned out that F4 told him that my name was "me" and guess he didn't know how to address me. When he did talk, I thought he had a sexy voice.

The broken finger? Well, we climbed a bunch that summer and fall (in 2006). Decided that it was probably easier to coordinate climbing if we moved in together. I didn't know it then -- don't people always break a finger, or two, when they move (full story)?

Okay, I'm getting back to my knitting now...

yes, but I forget the name of that. it's a logical fallacy. not remembering this is going to drive me nuts.

Mudworm:

1. My expectation? No, what I wrote isn't expectation, it's opinion, point of view. In other words, I think it to be true;

2. Correction: most of the climbers at our house that weekend were dirtbags; only one was a scumbag (and some people think he still is);

3. Dennis' "DIE" has to remain; it's a core function of this site;

4. Never forget that you balance him out here. We like it when you post now and then.

My first time... Hiking down from some outback first ascenting and there was Clint with this beefy, hairy, quiet dude at the Monolith sport hang.

Many months or years later I get a cold call from this Dennis guy asking "are you Jim McConachie" and if I wasn't still climbing could he jump one of my lines - White Punks on Rope. I said yes still climbing and sure you can jump it as long as it is with me.

A date was set, and on arrival at Yaks Wall I convinced Brad and Dennis to help me finish the third pitch of Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust (little did they know that this was a trial ballon to see about their personalities, ethics, and capabilities). We had a great time finishing the climb, topping out I insisted on drilling the anchors knowing we were cutting it close to the 6 PM closure.

Mr not-so-nice Ranger was waiting at the parking lot. Dennis sort of wandered away in the dark while I got the third degree (riot act, ID, etc.) and a warning. Turns out Dennis was busted a week or two prior by same ranger - got off with a warning.

Dennis was great in helping close out some other fun, lingering projects (White Punks on Rope, 2nd pitch Bandits in Bondage, and several other newer endeavors).

...and then he became Erik and it's been all so confusing since.

Brad, you are not helping.

So Jim, are you saying Eric was at the monolith sport climbing? He was at the monolith climbing......

I love this forum.

mungeclimber · « **Reply #38 on:** April 16, 2011, 06:18:15 PM »

Paging Clint... there seems to be theme here.

F4? · « **Reply #39 on:** April 16, 2011, 06:22:33 PM »

Is Clint the corruptor of Eric?
