I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I tried the $24 burger at the base of Highlands during the SES. It turned out to be the best burger I've ever had in my life. Holy $#!+. Totally worth it.

All he needs to do is add is 20 or 30 more mph and more lean for the carvey carvey and then he's got the perfect summer...

Back before I started carving I used to regularly do ~54000 at Northstar (30 laps on the Backside Express which I believe is ~1800). Get there before the lift opened and leave when the lift shut...

I was thinking of doing that, but the SportTube things don't open in a convenient way. You would probably have to take the whole tube off the rack to take the boards out, and it would be cumbersome...

You can bake the liners yourself easily - when I first got my thermoflex liners however many years ago I just followed the instructions on alpinecarving.com pretty much blindly and ended up with a...

Yeah, during the SES there was an incredible powder day at Snowmass that I took my 172 Tanker out for its virgin run. Great board; the float was obviously good, but it was possible to carve it on...

That is correct. Infernal Affairs has significantly lower production values as to be expected, but has a tighter story (the first 40 minutes of The Departed are basically summarized in a quick...

Hi, C5. Also just my opinion, and I don't expect others to agree either ;) but it is always nice to have a civil discussion like this.

I actually dislike it when movies use a little humor to take...

Yeah, I think he was paying homage to (stealing from) the ultraviolent Japanese and Chinese action sword flicks. The severed limbs and gushing blood are not new to those genres.



I agree. ...

I did not think The Departed was nearly as violent as, say, Goodfellas. There were a lot of rapidfire, sudden executions but again, that's just taken from the original Hong Kong movie.

I have a...

Peter! When do we get to ride together again? I haven't seen you in.. what, 3 years?

To your random questions I give you random responses :D :

I would say "damp" probably is "better" if all...

Kind of ;)

I thought the plot, story, acting, and directing were all pretty good, though it was mostly a remake of an arguably better Hong Kong film. I don't think it was Oscar material, but the academy oftens...

Not really - Elite Feet at Squaw Valley supposedly carries Head boots. Not sure if they demo.

No. There is supposed to be a little bit of side-to-side with standard clip bindings but there is...

I really enjoyed the Silberpfeil when I test drove it at the SES. Fun, poppy board.

It's kind of even more pathetic that they ended up with such a worthless piece of trash if they actually designed it from scratch.

RE Hummers: It seems like for any combination of traits that you find important in a car (utility, cargo space, mileage, handling, ability to parallel park on a hill in San Francisco, etc.) that...

I don't want to be responsible if your liners melt into a gooey mess at the bottom of your oven, but my liners had a small tears (not sure if they were as deep as yours) and they remolded fine.

I...

I'll paraphrase it for you:

The French aren't snobs.

I've remolded liners with torn skin and it was fine (it did not pour out of the hole in the oven or anything like that).

Good lord - out of how many competitors?

I can't tell you how often I've consulted the Almanac since you wrote it. Thanks, Scott.

Hey, a fellow Lightwave guy ;) I switched over to Modo for modeling but I still render in Lightwave.

It's actually pretty easy to draw stereogram doodles, like trefoil knots and braids. You just...

Yeah, that works in "real life" too. i.e. when you go to the eye doctor the smallest line of letters you can read with both eyes open is smaller than you can read with either eye open by itself. ...
