Where can I get them???? “Does anyone know where I can get waterproof shorts for backpacking in the rain? 8)” 11:44:11 AM 2/03/03 “If the other half of your legs are going to get wet, why bother with water proof shorts? Just get something that dries quickly.” 12:20:33 PM 2/03/03 “SG, I think that the Crazy One is just puttin' us on... ;-)” 12:26:50 PM 2/03/03 “Admit it, CMB. You just want to get drunk and pee yourself, right?” 12:28:02 PM 2/03/03 “Oh, so the joke's on me? Look up gullible in the dictionary. I'm there. :)” 12:29:08 PM 2/03/03 “I have to agree with SG on this one. Go with shorts that dry quick and put "Depends" on underneath.” 12:29:14 PM 2/03/03 “search for hiking kilt.” 12:29:17 PM 2/03/03 ??????? “Your kidding, right???? OK, perhaps not...waterproof shorts would be a tad uncomfortable I would think....you would sweat your guy's off.... We hike in our swim suits, Gore-Tex jackets and sandals..... Wait a min....Gore-Tex shorts!!!!” 12:32:36 PM 2/03/03 “I'll have my wife whip ya up a pair....just send me $375.00 and their yours!” 12:37:27 PM 2/03/03 “$375 to get in your shorts seems alittle steep to me.” 12:44:18 PM 2/03/03 “Skin is waterproof. Hike nekkid!” 12:57:50 PM 2/03/03 “Skin Depends Gortex Shorts Wet suit In that order. (Course it might matter the direction of the wetness.)” 1:26:03 PM 2/03/03 “i'm thinking those depends would get mighty soggy and heavy. better to use some wicking undies.” 1:41:45 PM 2/03/03 “Ever put a baby in a pool with a regular disposable diaper on? It's amazing how much water those things will hold...” 1:43:04 PM 2/03/03 “"Does anyone know where I can get waterproof shorts for backpacking in the rain? 8)" Crazy Mike Backpacks 11:44:11 AM 02/03/03 "Skin is waterproof. Hike nekkid!" Geobeet 12:57:50 PM 02/03/03 Can't/Don't want to imagine that one.” 1:54:48 PM 2/03/03 “Maybe you could make cuttoffs out of your rain pants!” 1:56:54 PM 2/03/03 “that's a great idea aero. cut off your Marmot precip pants and wwwwooooooollllaaahhhhh...... ...you have rain shorts.” 1:59:08 PM 2/03/03 “I can't imagine it either bbinks, but I was hoping he'd get arrested before I had a chance to see it.” 2:03:33 PM 2/03/03 just go to the nearest sex store, “and get some latex or pvc underware and wear them...problem solved.” 2:55:49 PM 2/03/03 Just for you CMB 3:08:09 PM 2/03/03 “$126 a pair??? Do people really buy these????” 3:19:47 PM 2/03/03 “I am not paying $126 bucks!!! Look in warm weather I just use gatiors and I am getting sick of haveing long rain pants that you just fry in I was just looking for something diffrent. 8)” 5:30:02 PM 2/03/03 “nylon shorts, aka 'swim trunks', ya big dummy!” 5:33:10 PM 2/03/03 OMG!!!!!!! “thats too funny, just make a pair of coveralls from an old tent fly. sheesh...126 bucks, thats freakin nuts...for that kind of money, they should come with ball massagers built in.” 5:33:13 PM 2/03/03 “Ya I never thought of that Rad! 8)” 5:39:12 PM 2/03/03 “be sure to cut out the liner, because you'll get a funky rash, if you've got big cujones, like i do.” 5:43:56 PM 2/03/03 “Good idea now another dumb question.Rain pants are made out of the same stuff right?100% nylon. 8)” 5:45:51 PM 2/03/03 “usually. smiley girl was right, though. it doesn't matter if they get wet. they dry very quickly and you will have cool, dry nuts. if it was waterproof nylon... ugh. that's just wrong!” 5:48:39 PM 2/03/03 “I also agree with SG and Raddy. Wicking drawers are a must when hiking in 100% nylon it gets wet out and you pass gass. It just wicks out to the outer layer. But, then again, if you pass gass, you just might be better off wearing windbreakers....” 5:55:11 PM 2/03/03 CMB “doesn't like wet weiners” 7:49:51 PM 2/03/03 “Dang Mike, I found you a pair and you reject them for a little thing like price. You didn't say you had a price limit. Hee Hee. If you are worried about price. I have suggestion. Take a tall kitchen garbage bag, one of those with the drawstring top, cut the bottom out of it, open it, step inside, pull up to waist, clinch drawstring around waist. You now had a RAIN SKIRT. Your "boys" will be be nice and cool and dry. HAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAA” 8:08:28 PM 2/03/03 “Instructions for inexpensive waterproof shorts: 1. Get a plastic Wal-Mart bag (this is not an advertisement for Wal-mart, but because of the properties of the plastic in a Wal-Mart bag they work the best). 2. Be very careful in cutting 2 equidistant holes in the in the bottom of the bag (don't ask me what that means). 3. Underwear is not necessary, as the plastic against skin is very comfortable, and the components of underwear interfere with the properties of the Wal-Mart shopping bag. 4. Slip legs into the carefully cut holes, that were hopefully cut to fit your legs, and use the handles of the bag as a belt, fastening it just above the waist. 5. This easy, inexpensive pair of waterproof shorts is very comfortable during any outdoor activity and is guranteed to keep you dry from the elements. Now you can't complain about the price on this one” 8:29:59 PM 2/03/03 “This is too much! 8)” 8:43:49 PM 2/03/03 “Just don't DRINK so much, okay? LOL” 8:59:18 PM 2/03/03 “simer has spent too much time around this crowd...... he is becoming as zany as the rest of us....” 9:01:03 AM 2/04/03 “and now what's that supposed to mean?” 4:11:31 PM 2/04/03 “Someone left the door open too long.” 4:23:11 PM 2/04/03 “Well Iam drinking right now is something wrong with that? 8)” 5:26:18 PM 2/04/03 “Only if it gives you trouble with your waterproof pants, LOL” 6:24:25 PM 2/04/03
