Intuition Boot Liners
Hey, everybody, it's Diaper Bob Thompson!!!! As he does every year
when challenged to show up and spew his **** in person, Dickless Bob is ignoring the challenge. He's hiding and pretending that if he doesn't see a challenge, he's not a pussy if he doesn't show...which is why I created the DIAPER BOB THOMPSON email addy to make sure to get past his filters. You will remember this is the same freak who invented the IDAHO PUSSY PARTY and talked all kinds of **** about setting a meet in Seattle when he knew I would be out of town. There is cowardly. There is ppppppuuuuuuussssssyyyyyy. And there is Brain Fried Bob, who makes himself look even more dickless with every evasion. DIAPER UP!!!!! Figure the Canyons on 11/12, and maybe even another Temple Square humiliation on 11/13!!!!! BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH On Dec 22, 7:37*am, pigo wrote: I like my boots pretty tight. But as I grew to understand the fit, and had professionals work on that, it became easy to get my foot/boot/ski to all turn at the same time without "having my eyes bug out". Your eyes bug out at the mere thought of diapering up and making a meet. How's that Gore-tex work when you **** your pants? |

I don't do that. I don't have the time to ski much anymore, as I live in the midwest and the busiest season of my business now is from November to March. I've been skiing for about 35 years (I'm 58), and at this point I'm mostly a crusier. I've been through a lot of boots..Nordicas, Hansons, Langes (the mid-80's hot-foam versions), a dreadful pair of something the-name-of-which escapes me, and these Tecnicas, and this is the first time I have had any issues of this sort. I don't recall exactly when I got them, but it had to be 2003 or so. I spent a lot of time and money getting these fit correctly, I use Thorlo thin socks (which is what they were fit for) because wool irritates my skin, and they are not buckled tight at all. I pretty much know what I'm doing out there, which is why I am concerned. It's also true that frostbite in extremities can be a warning about other issues, so I am keeping a close watch on this. |

Generally ski boots, regardless of liner type, are reasonably warm. If you are not doing what Walt says about keeping your core temperature up and other things there could be real circulation problems. All other things being equal, I have friends who swear by electric heaters for boots. I've got ten years on you, I haven't degraded to cruiser yet and my feet don't get cold. My hands do sometimes, but the cure is to get them warmed up wherever I can put the gloves back on and go some more. IOW, my hands will stay warm once they have been warmed up from a cold condition. In REALLY cold weather I will use the coal based handwarmers. Fer chissakes, don't be uncomfortable. |

Did they do the job and provide you with dryness when you peed your pants driving through Seattle, terrified that I might find you? Enquiring minds want to know, you blowhard coward. |

Upshot is that the docs put a pacemaker in which she will have for the rest of her life. Better that than the alternative. At any rate we didn't fly today and we won't be at Sun Peaks any time soon. I'm lucky to still have her with me. She'll probably be home tomorrow which is definitely a good thing. RW |

I surf with a guy who has one. He's tough as nails and charges big (way too big for me!) surf. The great thing about that pacemaker is that you don't have to worry about her ever having the "cardiac incident" recur in a way that will cause problems. Merry Christmas to you both. I'm glad to hear she got such good and quick treatment and is "fixed." Dave |

I'm on my second, after a lead on the first failed and I had a second "incident". Other than a lump in my upper chest, it's no problem. I go in for a check every 6-12 months, as someone else described. It hasn't slowed me down a bit. I keep thinking about reprogramming it for performance, but haven't gotten to it yet. :-) Actually, it is set to only operate if my heart goes below 30 bbm to halp the battery last, at my choice. It fires less than 1% of the time. Give her my best wishes. I know it's a trying experience. |

I'm glad to hear she got such good and quick treatment and is "fixed." Dave Thanks, and thank you all. That's our plan. The management at the Condo we were going to stay at in Sun Peaks has reserved our unit for the same time period next year at no additional cost. IOW, they are keeping our money but letting us have the Condo next year instead of this year. Nice folks. The airline has also done us a nice deal so that we can still use our tickets and the two bus services we were going to use simply said that our tickets were good for a year, no questions asked. We hate to drive and park in Boston, so we use the Dartmouth Coach on this end and the "Airporter" from Seatac north. Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas to all especially Horvie, except for poasting Scooter's ravings. RW |
