so yesterday i did the manual labor until like 9pm. drywall, framing all the shit. then i was like, i think i'll go climb a 12300 ft. mountain. (this is where things get gringi5h!)
so i pack my pack, pack my pipe (exhaust pipe with a banana. that joke is still funny even when it's my car!) and i drove up to the mt. got on the trail solo at 10:38 last night (course nobody wants to night hike. wtf). hiked till 12:25. threw the bag down to sleep at like 11300 ft. smoked, perfect. woke up at 8. summited and back to truck by 12::22 this afternoon. anyways, 2 things happened. chipmunks almost ate me alive in the fashion of a swarm of red ants or giant flock of birds. on the summit, those fuckers were after me. well, basically i stayed still and then they started crawling on me and licking my sweat. grooooosss! OMG!
so i thought, hey, i'm like the chipmunk whisperer (heady points?). BUT THEN. walking off the summit, oh look what is right in the trail on the ridge of a mt... a big fucking big horn sheep. he was pissed. he was sort of tryin to step to me. which is hilarious because as brett knows, when you hike alone, especially at night but really anytime, you will have a recurring thought about an animal attacking you and you killing it with bare hands, a walking stick, and your knife. always the knife. then you'd be on the cover of a local newspaper and you mentally write the outline for the story and think about the quotes you'll say to the reporters. brett, if i'm wrong, tell me. so last night i was thinking if a big horn started charging me, my quote would be "hey, i just gave it the matador treatment, i held out my pack, let him hit that, then sunk my knife in his side and his momentum ripped him open from shoulder to hip. no big deal, this sort of thing just happens in the wild. "
so there the sheep is, and i'm like "hey, dont ram me" and he keeps like walking closer to me trying to punk me. meanwhile i have my knife in one hand and my cam in the other. and i was near a tree i figured i'd use for cover if shit got real. i remember mentally changing the newspaper story to incorporate the tree, while it was happening. but i just gave him space and he chilled.

holy shit!

i mean in a good way.

much of the comments on slog sound like something off of Rush Limbaugh's website anymore.
I think I am just going to stop posting anything else. It really is arguing with the mentally retarded.

Cato @8 - are you a NW native?

You used this odd colloquialism in your post I only hear from Seattle born and raised. You use the word "anymore" in an affirmative way, rather than negative. In my mind, "anymore" is what you say when the sentiment is negative or something has ceased to be a certain way. "we don't do that anymore." Your sentance above sounds strange to me, I would have used the word "nowadays".

Everytime I hear "anymore" used this way, it always stops me in my tracks. The only people I have heard say it are natives, like my friend and his mom, both of which are from Seattle.

Just curious....

Yet in a few hold-outs, where history played odd tricks, Art Deco still dominates. Their names are surprising: Napier in New Zealand, rebuilt in one go after an earthquake in 1931; Miami Beach; the Eritrean capital Asmara, a masterpiece from the age of the brief Italian empire.

if you're in the mood to cry this might just do the trick

Two on a big ocean

Patrick Riley and Alaina Moore met while studying philosophy in college. The two agreed that upon graduating they would sell their collective possessions and leave behind their lives in Denver. They planned to buy a small sailboat and spend the next year living aboard and traveling exclusively under sail. For years this dream was carefully nurtured while preparations were made. Learning to sail and selecting a boat is difficult to accomplish from a landlocked state. Their nautical self-education consisted of a steady diet of how-to books and videos.
They were motivated by stories shared by sailors like Joshua Slocum, or Lin and Larry Pardey. On a sailboat minimalism transcends efficiency. There are no schedules, no agendas, or the many concerns that come with modern life. A sailor cares only for the direction of the wind and the condition of the water. Riley and Moore did not want their perception of the world to be shaped by spreadsheets, or facts gleaned in classrooms. They wanted a life of experience unmediated by people or things, a life of intimate participation with their environment. Cell phones, television, household appliances, the conveniences of modern life were traded for simplicity and contentment. A return to evenings spent indulging in the profound silence of the remotest regions, far from the yellowy glow of civilization.

Voyaging along the North Atlantic coastline for seven months at an average speed of five miles an hour lends itself to reordering one’s priorities. The long way is the beautiful one. The hard way is the most rewarding. Two years after completing their 2500 nautical mile voyage, Riley and Moore’s experience has led them to seek out a new endeavor. Their music bears the mark of months spent alone with the sea and each other. It is tinged with the sweet affection of new lovers. It bears the uncluttered aesthetic of time spent in remote and uninhabited regions. Their music is a modest attempt to translate an old truth rediscovered. Their album will be released by Fat Possum in January 2011.

SEATTLE – Some members of the 12th Man ended up in jail over the weekend when Hoquiam Police decided to use last Saturday's playoff game as a way to round up some suspects.

Police figured a lot of people would be home watching the game on TV, so they decided to knock on the doors of those with outstanding warrants.

Twenty-three people were booked into jail. They also missed the end of the game.

this tweet made me :)
