I don't have a photo, but this sums up the priorities in Ouray: the local market carries three KY products and zero face lotions that are not SPF 50 sunscreens for babies...

My must-haves to make me look like a non-climbing girlfriend so my male partners can carry all the gear/water/food and put up the ropes for me:

1. Eyelash curlers
2. Ironic large sunglasses
3. A cute headband
4. Lip gloss
5. A tiny purse-backpack to carry all the above

In the winter, all the above plus a knit hat with the largest pom pom and anything by Burton.

1) A ground man
2) A bloodless freak
3) A dog named Faggot
4) A stilleto knife for cutting frayed rope ends
5) A body bag for "bringing back the dead"
6) A green hardhat helmet
7) A hot trainer named "George"

At least she is prepared to make new ones in case she forgets hers at home.

Nothing against you but this is funny...

Since apparently everyone brings guns to the crag I think it would be a good idea to add a bulletproof vest to my pack haha.

A hot Asian wife and the ability to kick a dog w/o feeling bad afterwards.

The right to kick parties of top roping noobs off any climb after one hour.

A six pack, three joints and a lighter

Speed stick, a vague notion that Nietzche was on to something, an urge to buck all forms of social acceptance, a desperate need for social acceptance, a girl (any girl), tape (in case I NEED it), an armchair opinion about futuristic ascents in another Hemisphere, access to the internet

Keith Stone, because he's so smooth, always

Eight comic books
Seven packs of smokes
Six pack of Tuborg
Five golden toques
Four pounds of back-bacon
Three French toast
Two turtle-necks
And a beer.

Matt Davies: Now that I'm in my 40s, I am selling my supply of a few of those things if anyone needs them:
(1) Speed stick: $1.40 (used)
(2) A vague notion that Nietzche was on to something: $1844-1900 (taking bids)
(3) An urge to buck all forms of social acceptance, a desperate need for social acceptance: $45 (package deal, will not sell separately)

Sad to sell the Nietzsche, but its taking up too much space in the garage.
