I feel like such an idiot

“for. It's not called the lost coast trail, it's called the California coastal trail and it runs the entire lenght of the CA coast the LCT is just a 80 mile section of the CCT

thanks for the tip about the site on GORP.com”

“I know what guid book i need now Its caled hiking the CA Coastal trail.”

“and plus the trail is only 64 percent finished so much of it is finding your own way. and the guide book will most likely tell me what maps to get.”

“You answered all your own...:p questions.”

“I thinks he iz Ice Tee en dusgize.”

“LOL!!!!!!!”

“no I just realized my own stupidity”

“uMmm.. poppinfresh?.. you might try going to the bookstore every now and then.. they have this section.. called 'backpacker's section?'”

“TD, you are in rare form. Must the meeting with your tax accountant. ;-)”

“Poppinfresh,

I have read enough of your threads to recognize that you are impatient and slow witted. Either one is a liability, but in combination they are can result in dire mistakes.

Take a minute to think through your actions before you act. This will help you in most aspects of your life. No need to thank me, I just thought I would help.”

“LOL bacpac--pity your kids.”

“No Mary, bacpac sprung forth from the brow of Zeus fully formed in mind and spirit and has no patience for mere mortals.

Don't sweat it, Poppinfresh. Everyone has their moments, including our sour-toned friend, here.”

“So, is bacpac like this in person? Or does he save it only for us?”

“It's a shame there are people who have to try an hurt others to make themselves feel worth while”

“Who is trying to hurt? I find honesty refreshing. I sincerely doubt that poppinfresh recognizes his problem. I thought someone should mention it to him. I am the kind of guy who will tell you when your fly is open, when your dandruff is bad, when your breath stinks. I appreciate such honesty in return.

Maybe I do come across as sour sometimes. Thanks for the heads up.”

“I'd rather have someone be painfully honest than blow sunshine up my @ss all the time. At least you can trust their opinion. (BTW, my previous post was pure smart @ss).


That being said, there is much to be said of social skills and tact.”

“In the immortal words of Ed Norton...

"SHEESH, what a grouch!"


LOL”

“bacpac, your fly is open.


And for sh!t sake, do something about that dandruff!”

“Kleety you are trying to blow Sunshine up my ass again?”

“...trying hard to erase the image (kleety and bacpac) from my mind...”

“This thread needs a warning buoy now.


PS Bad place for a sunburn.”

“I am a little impatient but never slow witted I should've know to look up the trail by the propper name. But hey every one makes mistakes. and hey tommarow i have an orenteering class that i will be atending at REI.

so happy trails all.

i went to the bookstore yesterday and bought the book Hiking the CCT.

see I'm not slow-whitted i just get angry when I do something stupid.”

“Bacpac,
To call someone slow witted sounds like an ugly thing to say. I am a very straight forward kind of person also, I dont like someone who wont say it right out, no guessing. BUT I dont like Ugliness either I guess I should have commented on Tactfulness instead. Sorry Bacpac, if I misunderstood your comment even though it was'nt aimed at me. I've been a little unusually touchy at people lately.”

“Yep. Everyone has their moments.

But by the same token, "it just don't pay to advertise" sometimes, LOL”
