ChuckNorris 7-Jun-2017 11:12:10 PM	Come to think of it you've got a point lizard boy. History tells us if KC had never climbed in Yosemite then there is no way Alex Honnold would ever have soloed Free Nelson Mandela on el cap. We'd all be like m9 smashing our way up omega block. Prolly wouldn't be the internet. Prolly wouldn't be the kardashians.....come to think of it are you sure KC isn't one of em? He always had the hair all he'd need is a fat arse and he'd be set.

ChuckNorris 7-Jun-2017 11:41:05 PM	Cheers Liz. That's the nicest thing anyone has said to me. Seeing you are the master I need a hand - I can neither think of a tasteful nor distasteful way of trolling ODH on the honald thread with a cross reference to the QUT inability to belay one. Reckon I'm 60% to making hero cry with some sport climbing reference to honald blindly bomming onto the anchors when you get to the top. but the pitch and tone just ain't right. What would you do?

ChuckNorris 8-Jun-2017 8:16:42 PM	Dalai- it wasn't that late with time difference. I kinda got sucked into watching Fox News live broadcast of us senate enquiry. Like climbing offwidths - Excruciating but strangely addictive. Odd - still 3 weeks to Malaysia. Working on a Singapore plastic tour guide
ima.seriousyoungliza 8-Jun-2017 9:50:45 PM	>>>Like climbing offwidths - Excruciating but strangely addictive. ...I discovered ...during the Carrigan years...of course...that by wearing a pair of KT26z...offwidths are bloody easy.....even fun ... .
ChuckNorris 8-Jun-2017 10:01:35 PM	Liz I only clicked the Devo link just now - love it. Funny thing is twisted sister show up as the next song which is weird given my recent Fox News obsession. Ffs twisted sister are regulars on Fox News the prime time show crosses regularly to a poxy stage in a shopping mall to watch the old farts bang out another rendition of we aren't gunna take it to a bunch of redneck shoppers. Jeez the only people that go to shopping malls in the states these days are those who can't afford internet shopping and fox viewers
ChuckNorris 8-Jun-2017 10:05:34 PM	KT26z..........perchance did you go rooting around in deep, wide and stinky cracks with simey? That's cool but hope you gota shot after.
