crazygurl were you washing your gear at the time? That would provide the missing link to backpacking that every thread must have I guess.

Sounds like a demand/media stooge checking up on us. And somehow I suspect tilt has a pretty good handle on trails in PA. Can't be sure of that, but that's my hunch.

actually, like every noobie that shoots their mouth off before they learn about the site, I am sure the dude was commenting about this post that started the thread in 2004 and not crazygurls dryer escapades ...

“Just got word, as I am an Emt in the area, that 3 student were killed today in a car accident! They were all 9th graders and the driver was a senior in his last day and he did not die! Rumors, take them for what they are, is the he was drinking and speed and booze were involved. When will they ever learn. Three 9th graders funerals, what a way to end a year. Sorry for venting but frustrated, thanks for listening!

Crazygurl, sorry for your kleenex fiasco, but it's pretty funny.

Jkad, reset your date range, Dude. You gotta understand that, just as we do on the trail (most of here do backpack with each other) sometimes we chat about non-backpacking topics. Uncheck the "chatter" box if you don't want to read it.

I thought we were supposed to call them a troll first, and then curse later. Where's my TT rule book...

Wow, I dont think you guys/girls ripped JK a big enough a-hole. Maybe you should widen it and put an express lane in while your at it.
BTW is backpacking a sport? I thought is was a recreational activity or a hobby.

Yeah.... I never saw it as some sort of competition or necessarily a communal activity. That's why I got into it.

I view backpacking as a sport in the same way I view hunting and fishing as sports.

If you can't score points, its not a sport.

Adventure racing is a sport, walking in the woods is just recreational exercise.

I prefer the silent but deadly approach. You can reach alot of people without exposing your identity.

I think I meant that sometimes you have to speak loudly over all the rumblings here to be heard!

NO FARTING ALLOWED! Go outside!

You don't have to speak loudly over people to be noticed, you just have to make a good impression.

Backpacking happens outside. Does that mean we can fart as much as we want on trips?

I finally learned to claim the adage

now having claimed it... I need to live by it... hehehehe

one person farts, the other person playing has to hear the fart... they have 5 seconds to fart themselves to throw them out..

the person who didnt fart the base hit votes on what it was(we try to be honest)... single, double, tripple, HR, out,
a regular fart is a single..
a looong nasty fart(5+seconds) is a double..
a long nasty fart that changes in octives is a tripple...
10+ second fart changing in octives is a Homerun
20+ seconds is a grandslam

just getting a double is very hard...

when you goto throw someone out... be carefull... its a dangerous play... if you mess your shorts, you loose the game... we call it a rain-out

if you fart a SBD, and someone smells it, you get a stolen
base

Min 1 min must be waited between hits to prevent the babe ruths from tooting out a machinegun volley of base hits

Yup, HOI is the Commissioner of Fart Baseball. He is the authority on the subject. Whatever you do, do not sit behind home plate. And never let anyone talk you into pinch hitting. Trust me on this.

According to HOI official rules, pitch hitting isn't to bad. Its just replacing another hitter who probably sh1t themselfs or is about to.
