The big anti-hijack thread.....
Talk about anything, but if this works than we don't have to keep looking around all the threads to see who is still on tonight, and every night, or even every day! Talk about the chiefs, talk about tomorrow, talk about football, politics or even how to do flooring and the applicable budget. What you're drinking, how hard it is to sleep, etc. Every thing is acceptable in this thread.....

I did have to laugh though at one point when I was on the lift. One of those punks had his snow pants belted real low and he bit it on one of the black diamonds - :-) - I bet he had snow in places he didn't want it.
I also thinks it's amusing when the lose momentum or when they're at a flat spot and they're doing that hop/crawl thing to get to the lift/top of a hill. :-)

If I could have gotten my hands on that first ****er last year - I would have been kicked off the slope. (He was laughing about knocking me over from a safe distance) I looked for the little bastard the rest of the day. :-)
At least the one from Sunday apologized and asked if I was okay. Too bad I didn't realize I was bleeding at that time. I might have made a bigger impact on the kid. dangit.

Solid lumps of beryllium left alone are not dangerous as such: It's not going to rub off and go through your skin, but because of its toxicity, care is needed when machining beryllium or its alloys.

That was indeed a masterful concept on behalf of Mr. Skip Towne.
My "First One Not To Post On This Thread Wins" thread did not fare as well.

There was the original one (2003) and then there was the second one. I could be wrong - but I think Skip's was the second one. :-)
