No ****, dumbass...I used to live in Kamas, probably before you even

Oooh, a long time resident (even calls himself a 'local'). I'm sooo impressed.
Thinks he has some vested right to everything here because 'I was here first'.
Wow. Only problem is that I have been here as long as you. I just don't ****
and
moan that everyone else is encroaching on my turf.

For some funny reason, my instinct tells me that you don't do much
jumping off of anything.


I'm not in a contest to prove anything to you. It's not an exclusive club that
requires yours or anyone elses blessing.

BTW, dumbass, it's the "Uintas", not "Uintahs". Yea, I know, it's a
technicality, but I doubt that you are actually jumping off of a bunch
of high indians.

So I misspelled it, and you infer an awful lot. Maybe you should spend more
time
jumping into the backcountry instead of jumping to conclusions.

Just because you take pretty pictures dose not ensure you the right to judge
others as 'insiders'.

BTW: I'm done with this stupid thread. I'm done with discussing this same 'I'm
better than you' argument.

I like you. You see assholes, you expose them as assholes, my kind of guy.
Stick around.
Nothing more laughable then assholes playing the "I'm a purer skier than
you" game.

BTW, there are plenty of locals who think Thompson is an asshole, too. They
used to buy coke off him.

Your the asshole. Go back to your crappy Mensweb where your wanted. Not.

He made no such claim that he has any vested right because he was there
first. He also made no references to anyone "encroaching on his turf. We
just moved when it went from real people to too many holistic, liberal
types.

*YOU* are the one that brought up "jumping off". He, like me, think
that, like many in pc, you call "jumping off'' that little drop you get
from misjudging the offload time at the top of "First Time".

BTW, dumbass, it's the "Uintas", not "Uintahs". Yea, I know, it's a

Someone with such a superiority complex and vast local knowledge should
be more careful about their spellings. It could help bring your
credibility % up into whole digits.

Again. I had nearly 20 years there. I got plenty of biking in. I got

my
first mtn. bike in 1980. I don't do that much of it anymore. Lot's of
people do however.

Same 'I've been here longer than you, so I'm better than you' argument

that your
buddt AstroPax makes.


No. You make the argument that us "white, pasty, freaks" don't mountain
bike or do anything *because* of the fact that we live in the valley. To
which I point out that I got my first mountain bike 23 years ago. In
that time I did lots of mountain biking and it has now moved down in my
priority list of things to do. I can understand the enthusiasm that some
relative newbies have for all sorts of things that I have long since
tired of. It's very much a natural progression.

Cinder block is man made, environmentally friendly and much longer
lasting.


Cinder blocks are made in Mexico by near slave labor wages. They use

curing
ovens that belch smoke into the already choked environment, which

causes great
harm to the local population. I guess since its someone elses country

and
environment its all right. They are then trasported North on Diesel

trucks. The
amount of energy spent per ton cinderblock is far greater than logs.


Sawmills, logging trucks, clearcutting. You funny.

Not coke filled? Funny again.
The place is full of people that talk the talk but can't walk the

walk.
If you like it, good for you. And like *you* said it's full of
"holistic, liberal minded" people. Who, besides other dreamers,

want's
to be around people like that. But where was the "rip"?

I guess you would know where to find them. I personnly don't know

anyone like
that. Maybe I'm hanging in the wrong crowd.


I build their houses. Work with them. Listen to them talk skiing all
summer and then watch them **** there pants at the top of some
relatively easy run like "Gloryhole" or "Thaynes" or "Scotts". Some ever
freak at the top of Sunnyside.

You seem to have conveniently left out my concern about your
stereotyping, racial profiling and racist remarks. Are you working on

a
response or hoping that it goes away? Here it is in case you forgot:

You also got to be kidding when you think that living amoung

white-pasty freaks is better



Are you kidding? I thougth it was self explanitory: The oppresive

Mormon
influence in the SLC valley is just beyond belief. Ask any non-Mormon

how they
are discriminated by the non-secular government/establishment. I

simply can not
live in an area that does not tollerate more diverse thinking.


Oh yes. There is an oppressive mormon culture here. SLC is more than 50%
non-mormon however. And just to be clear, would you describe some west
side neighborhoods as brown and greasy? Or would that be stereotypical,
racist and profiling? Beyond that, is there a connection between
someones tan and there worth as a human?
That's a great one. "I simply can not live in an area that does not
tollerate more diverse thinking." As you make a stereotyping, racist
remark. It doesn't matter who you were refering to. It's still racist
even when you do it against whites.

The same goes for this 'insider/local' mentality that so many of you

'long
timers' have. It's close minded and discriminatory.


BoftheW

BTW: As I said to AstroPax, I'm done this thread. No point in

continuing a
****ing match. besides I've got to go and **** off some more 'locals'

around
here.


Well good for you. Besides, from a couple of replies I see you've found
a friend and supporter here (and I don't read or respond to him).

I found this story about some people from a holistic, liberal minded
community. One of the ones that, during my time there, pc tried to
emmulate (along with Aspen). What dopes.

That's Timothy Treadwell. I saw a show about him on Discovery. They
filmed his life up there, showed him gambolling with the grizzlies,
etc. I was quite bummed out by this report.

I don't think of that as liberal, per se. I'd file that under the same
category as Siegfried and Roy: "These animals are enormous carnivores
that could kill me with ease, but I have such a deep rapport with them
that they would never hurt me". BZZT. Wrong. Both of them DID have
quite a long run without injury, and I'm sure that they believed in
"their" animals. But in the end it's folly. A wild animal is still a
wild animal.

The article I read claimed that

1) He was an exprert on bears
2) He thought bears weren't dangerous.

Something does not compute....

From a purely statistical point of view, these things were going to
happen soooner or later.
