Mammoth opening Nov 8
It may be just a gimmick, but the webcams make it look like more than
just a single ribbon open. I can't avoid it for the following reasons -I will be in Davis Wednesday for the first round of the Big West soccer tournament, and I will either be coming back south that night (and 395 is one way to get south) or I will be hanging around for a Saturday game at Davis. -I already have a Mammoth season pass -My hotel frequent-sleeper plan is in a mode now where about every third night is free -Nov 8 would be my earliest opening day ever -I skied until Memorial Day (May 28) last Spring, so I this will be my shortest off-season ever. I assume the snow will be better Thursday than it was May 28. The skis required only a light tuneup because the Memorial Day days were so short. I went over every seam, pocket and zipper in my favorite ski pants. I found one tear that will need attention soon and one zipper pull missing - that may be a problem later. If the weather report looks clear for the next few days looks clear tomorrow, I will be packing the minivan tomorrow (economy and comfort). Else it will be the pickup (better winter vihicle). |

Such detail. No surprise you're ignoring your buddy Wack Job Waldron lying about lying to the cops, and his refusal to provide the contact info of the cop he claimed to be working with. Hey, did you notice that Huggies Horvath just joined the whine to the cops club? Pretty quickly, he realized that he'd have to ID himself, and they'd read his frequent death threats and threats of violence, and jail his scumbag ass. I laughed at him almost as much as I laughed when you ****ed yourself and admitted SPD blew you off with a FORM EMAIL!!!!! And of course, your buddy Mad Dog Alan Baker continues to talk **** about lying to the cops, almost three years later. How pathetic. Almost as funny as when you admitted you got blown off with a FORM EMAIL!!!!! Contact info? Hey, if Davis wins, is that going to necessitate another EMERGENCY SOCCER GAME? BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAa |

Take a small key ring and use it to replace the zipper tab. It works perfect, and they don't usually rust. You should be able to use it with gloves. (Hint: Take the keys off, first.) A paper clip makes a good temporary repair, but they rust or fall off. Vote for Romney. Repeal the nightmares. |

See drawing - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Re...eile_2_fcm.jpg Where #4 attaches to #3 most of #3 is missing, so there is no structure or hole to attach anything to. I can still move the zipper by grasping it on both sides. It is the pants-cuff closure zipper, which I usually only work when putting boots on or taking them off. There is a velcro patch at the bottom of the zipper - I may just replace the whole thing with a velcro strip. |

If you bought them today it would not show any political influence. I just spent 600+ dollars on heat shrinkable molded parts and mil spec connectors and that will come in a box weighing less than 2 lbs. |

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHA You said the cops would take me to jail if I showed up at a VFW. Only way that happens is if you whine to them. Which you won't, because you'd get arrested. What a puuuuuuusssssssyyyyyy!!!!!!! A run to the cops, whine about the big bad man who humiliates you pussy. Just like your buddies, pussy. Happy to discuss this with the cops. Verifiable ID? Which city? I'll call them immediately. BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA |

The possibilities - 1. Davis loses Wednesday and their soccer season is over (barring an NCAA selection miracle). In that case, I will ski Mammoth Thursday and head home at the end of the day. 2. Davis and Cal Poly win Wednesday, so the Saturday game will be at Davis. In that case, I will ski Thursday and Friday at Mammoth and drive back to Davis Saturday. 3. Davis and Northrige win Wednesday, which means the Saturday game will be at Northridge. In that case, I will ski Mammoth Thursday and whether I head home or hang for Friday depends on the conditions I find at Mammoth. A possible complication is the weather coming down from the Gulf of Alaska, for which light snow is forecast Friday. That will affect which car I want to take, so I'm not packing until I have a better read on the weather. |
