Mani is a thread Nazi!
I agree with your son. They both would've died had he not cut the rope. Instead they both survived (albeit with terrible PTSD).
Climbing season has already begun in Colorado, except that we've been getting snow for the last couple of days... My girlfriend and I have already been out on the rock and we are really excited for the season to get going. I don't blame your son wanting to not start from the bottom again. I quit guiding because it was taking the fun out of climbing for me. Well, actually, it was that climbing is, for me, a spiritual thing and its important to do it with someone I care about. I felt sort of like a prostitute for having people pay me to do it with them, so to speak. Ethics are extremely important out West. For example, if someone bolts a route next to a crack or after someone did a first ascent without bolts, someone else will usually go up and take the bolts out. I don't even use chalk. And Touching the Void is a great book is you haven't read it.Thanks, soon it will be even better ... I hope.
Thanks for the rep, 'Bones!

I was trained on the "wilderness" defibrillator and its true, you just turn it on, push the button, put the pads on the victim, and it does the rest. Its just knowing when to use it and when not to that's the trick. You don't use it when someone's heart has already stopped beating, because that is what the defib does is stop the heart. But if someone's heart beat is erratic or if the heart is spasming (such as subsequent to a heart attack) then CPR won't help until the heart has been stopped. So all those movies you see when they use the defib to bring someone back are untrue. After you use the defib, you do CPR, and then, maybe, you save a life...
He had to show up that time
We all were at one time
Meant to say "That's Cool!" in the rep!
finished, you didn't get the reference?
Well Bones, Bubbles made it out of the Basement.

Okay, maybe it was whining, a little.
Hey Bones! It was good to hear from you. I will definitely be taking this summer off. It's my time for camping, not hosting. Hubby and I are doing pretty good for old folks. I'm ready for some warm temps and sunshine. Keep 'em straight in the hills! Take care!
That wasn't whining, that was my inferiority complex leaking out. Thanks for the rep.
Poor guy, nobody cares about his feelings!
I was off work yesterday and watched 7 episodes throughout the day and night, the wife hates me.lol.
She'll hate me even more shortly because I am going to start watching season 5, see how that grabs her.
