130s, appear to have been skied in maybe half a dozen times, for 90

all.
If they fit your feet, you got a screaming deal.
If they don't, you wasted ninety bucks.
They're definitely a little roomy, but I figure I can just wear 3-4
pairs of socks. That way I won't have to worry about my feet getting
cold either.

One hopes you are jesting.


Yeah, I am. Is it just me, or does it seem like the gullability level
here has skyrocketed in the absence of YKW?

one anticipates newbies getting misled re ski boots, and wishes to
insure appropriate fitting advice. one is astonished at the ignorance re
the proper fitting of ski boots amoung friends and acquatencies.

nuts. one would also hope that a new installation of thunderbird on a
new-to-oneself computer with a missing shift key would have check
spelling turned on in the preferences file; but noooooooo...

Hell, I don't know - you're probably correct. I haven't skied a K2 since
the 710s


Wow. You were skiing in the early eighth century?

That would make you even older than Richard.

He's Buddhist. Reincarnation.

Used to have a pair of 810s. Technically I owned some 710s at one time too,
but I never skied them, they were collateral for covering my roommate's
rent. Think I got $100 for them. Decent money in 77.

Geez, nobody is getting called on their crap when I'm not here?
Except the predictable piling on of toecheese?
Here's a clue. I'm not gullible about you. You're a dickless
pathological liar and one cowardly freak.
Now go back to ****ing yourself.

No - they're calling me on crap that I've made up. I think it's
called "trolling". When you're not around, it's really kind of
boring. Honestly, I miss you.

Except the predictable piling on of toecheese?


Seriously - talk about a waste of bandwidth.

Yes, you've got me pegged. Of course I haven't been blathering on
about fighting someone for 10 years without having the balls to go and
seek one out. Why don't you come visit me?

Now go back to ****ing yourself.


Nope. I've got a girlfriend for that.

BwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHaHaHaHaaaaaaa....

I noticed that he message count was reducing before I read any. That's
usually a sign that trunky has reared his extended colon again. But
there just wasn't the typical obssessive quantity as usual.

I'm happy to see that nothing else has changed ! Still as predictable
as ever. His latest boyfriend must have left him.
