[note: sockhands fully supports social change throught the provision of liberties and re-allocating war spending to address domestic issues such as education and environmental policy reform/implementation, corporate fraud, and the repugnant salaries of hollywood celebrities and baseball players, yet sockhands is very fiscally conservative and therefore is a fence dweller on political issues since he does believe in social liberties, but he does not believe that his colleagues who work harder than him should be taxed at a higher rate after having devoted their entire lives to their careers to the exclusion of many other enjoyments of life...and sock hands does not believe his elderly clients who worked their entire lives to create a nest egg should be taxed at the proposed higher capital gains rates during the balance of their lives or that their children and grandchildren should have to pay 45% tax on their inheritance that is over the estate tax exclusion, which may be significantly reduced under a democratic regime, thereby wiping out even more that someone can give to their children, including the family ranch that has a high appraised value despite the cash-poor nature of the business, therefore requireing the subdivision and sale of the historic family property. sockhands also finds it hard to swallow that a national health care system would be more efficient than his goddamn HMO that makes him wait 2 months to see a doctor who thinks his concerns are *no big deal* but then performs a biopsy anyway because sockhands demands it and such biopsy comes back from the lab positive and therefore sockhands, because of his own insistance, probably saved himself from developing skin cancer that would require an icecream scoop to remove later in life, if *lucky*...goddamn HMOs!]

In other news Sock Hands was caught outside a local elementry school trying to sell ice cream cones, ropes, and quickdraws to students out of a creepy old white van…

I for one will say that we as a climbing community should not stand for this kind of behavior! Currupting our youth with thoughts of climbing routes. He was probably telling kids how ‘rad’ the red was. As far as I’m concerned I’m appauled. Those sweet imprecionable little kids. You bastard.

regardless, and it’s been said x10000, it seems like someone who thinks they know who took their draws should take it up with that fool directly instead of taking hammer to hanger/rock.

i’d figure that if draws got nabbed once, i’d be inclined to clean up my toys after every play date w/ the route rather than leaving them up to be taken six more times? wtf?

like most things in the climbing world, perhaps i just have no clue and am speaking out of ignorance, but seriously, that’s very strange.

NEVER MENTION THAT I SAID THIS SECOND STATEMENT EVAR OR DIE!

And who says women are the source of drama?? Come on, boys!

Oh, and Kevlar…shouldn’t you be doing school things, like studying?!

seems like my list of sport climbers deserving a quick punch in the nuts has grown. this ‘controversy’ is retarded on all fronts.

“50 words”- this whole ordeal is incredibly disrespectful in my eyes. Even if kinder had been stealing draws, im sure their is some other way to deal with this, and i take it that their is other people working it that don’t appreciate it.
