I was just going to ask about Tea.

If Tea ever figures how to get two bags zipped together, his odds will drop into triple digit range.

Hoot Mon!
My odds dropped to 25:1! WoooooooHoooooooooooooo!
Geobeet

11/20/03

Odd will remain solid on CMB until after the second snowfall or the 10th consecutive day of sub zero weather, whichever comes first.

Odd on Opie remain solid unless he moves to Nashville.

Odds or Geobeet are subject to slip steadily throughout the next month.

Odds frozen on Buddha Bear pending further disclosures from tarabull.

No movement expected on odds on Ice Tea until his third date and until he learns how to zip two bags together.

All betting on bacpac has ceased after his "how many women does it take to screw in a light bulb" post.

Stickmon enters the field at

7000:1

Odds subject to lower significantly as he begs for some female TT'er to actually go out with him. Odds will increase if he brings Khatru along on the date.

Oh man, does this mean I going have to draft a pre-nup agreement for CMB, lord knows how he would hate to lose his feathered friends bags and titanium cookset if things were to go bad!
CnC
11:58:16 AM

Simer enters at 2498:1

His chances appear to be slightly better than tea at this point.

no prenup needed... I like my aluminum cookset just fine :)

although i do like that 50th anerversery slumberjack he has......
Ms Crazy Mike Backpacks

Concern over the legalities threatens to move CMB odds back to 1:5.
chili36
12:22:12 PM
11/20/03

Slumberjack
Be careful, you know how fanatical CMB can be when it comes to slumberjack (I remember telling him a couple of years ago that he was the only hardcore BPer I knew who had a titanium spork that cost more than his sleeping bag) I shudder to think what would happen if you made a play for an "anniversary edition" bag!! Also, I can't believe CMB will let you get through the holidays with an aluminum cookset, lord knows the crap he has given me because of having a MSR blacklite cookset instead of titanium!
CnC
12:31:31 PM
11/20/03

I refused to use his titanium...my set only $.25 at a garage sale. The set ROCKS :) And he let me use his slumberjack on his last trip...in fact i made him sleep in my womens downtime bag and slept in his cause I was cold :)
Ms Crazy Mike Backpacks
12:33:47 PM
11/20/03

Hmmm,,,new revelations over the legalities and over the disclosure that MsCMB is forcing CMB to sleep in a women's bag move this prospect back to

1:4

Hey, that was a funny joke.

ah, but I made him think it was his idea ;) so he "voleenteered" to trade :)
Ms Crazy Mike Backpacks
12:41:07 PM
11/20/03

chili, given that MScmb is apparently in a thong, sunning in the backyard, waiting for CMB (see other thread) might have to pull the odds back to 1:6
CnC
12:42:01 PM
11/20/03

I was earlier when he came home for lunch :) no I am in but im thinking of going back out again :)
Ms Crazy Mike Backpacks
12:43:06 PM
11/20/03

Yeah, CnC, the more he thinks with his little head, the faster the odds drop.
chili36
12:44:27 PM

Hmm, CMB arrives home to that...and doesn't take the afternoon off....odds fall back to 1:4..lol

He almost didnt make it back to work....
Just wait when I go pick him up from work in a thong!
Ms Crazy Mike Backpacks
12:45:37 PM

LOL...just so long as you don't start sending him off to work in a thong!!

If I read any more of this thread my odds will fall through the basement.
Geobeet

Odds of Geobeet ignoring this thread.
10000:1

G_d, you just know if you could find one made of sil-nylon he would wear it in a sec (and no doubt to the horror of everyone else on a club trip insist on showing the damn thing off around the campfire!!)..lol

CMB just move back to Even Money

All other odds remain unchanged.

i wanna put a bet on the "i'm going to puke" odds, any bets on the odds of "how many free23family trolls" we can have?..its kinda hard to tell if they are one..or just related...
OPIE

Free Family Trolls....


I think Opie just discovered a new species.
chili36
2:34:36 PM
11/20/03

WTF? I actually work for an hour or so and come back and this place looks like Jerry Springer Show.

New odds:


The pissed off factor move CMB back to 1:25

Opie (who is unusually silent) 8:1

We can't rule out the possibility of Buddha Bear attemting a double reverse 30:1

Geobeet doen't really have a horse in this race and falls to 100:1

Simer and Ice Tea can't compete in this league and fall to a dismal 7000:1 (you can pick both with one bet)

bacpac is the only true rock in this place and the book remains closed as there is no way in hell he will get married before any of the aforementioned.

Jerry Springer On Crack.

Geobeet doen't really have a horse in this race and falls to 100:1

Watch it counselor. That's dangerously close to asking a question to which you don't know the answer.

25:1 is more like it.
Geobeet
4:22:53 PM
11/20/03

I'm giving 1:5 that when CMB and MsCMB announce the engagement that the gift registries will be at Campmor, REI, and the Summit Hut
CnC

Don't forget Mountain Gear, Sierra Trading Post, and Backpackingdeals.com!
Tilt

Geo stuns the world with his disclosure...


and immediately falls back to the original 10:1
