High Rock Monday

Tom, Pete and I. Just like yesterday. Or pretty much. It was possible to sink out today if you weren't paying attention. But we all got up and it was sweet. In some ways sweeter than yesterday. Tom got 4k over.

There was still a whole bunch of stuff from the party there: An empty box of Petite Ecolier cookies, an empty bottle of Jose Cuervo Tequilla and an empty envelope indicating that it contained $25 in bumper sticker fees.

I fell asleep in the hammock and the rope broke!! Bruised my tail bone. Needs a new hammock. If I can find one for less than $25 I will donate it to the club.

Maybe you should take your hammock harness to Steve Wendt for repairs?

Your incident emphasizes the need for a thorough pre-flight of your equipment. Prior to proning out you should have pressed down on the support lines with approximately 75 lbs of force. That might have presaged the problem.

I hope you'll file an incident report with USGHA.

Glad you're o.k.

OK, this web forum crap has gone too far. Who are you talking to and

If you really want to know, you'll have to visit the web forum at:

Scroll up and see the context.

Try this for awhile and you will notice how much extra garbage gets mixed into the content by the email-only crowd.
