  1. Best time to sign up for Southwest card is November. Sign up for business card at the same time.
  2. You mean see her besides through the binoculars and shrubbery?
  3. Toob’d at Roundtop once or twice as a yoot
  4. Technically, I said “Roooooooooottttt!” as you skied by me on Connector en route to Burma or Chute or Midway or whereveryouwent, right before I dropped into the glade. No worries. We're sweating like grease monkeys out there, I can't expect you up hold onto a ball.
  5. I'll be up solo Saturday morning. Likely Sausage Saturday this week as I think we will be at Camelback Sunday
  6. Very nice so far. Catching a break, probably look at their boots, head back out for a few more.
  7. Stuck at work too, probably bagging out early if they don't send us home and expect to head up this afternoon
  8. Haven't been to the Camelback one, but based on pics/layout and my experience at Kalahari, I think Kalahari would be significantly better. Of course, it's not ski slope adjacent, so for this use it's not as good.
  9. They give a free lift ticket to each person staying in the room, good only for a day during your stay. $160 is about what the rooms go for normally this time of year M-Th, much higher F and Sa nights, and a good bit higher Su nights. might be a bit more in Jan and Feb, but still usually under $200 midweek. A good deal if you need lift tickets, especially with a full room.
  10. Wanted to get back from Maryland in time to ski yesterday afternoon, but it didn't really work out, so I was determined to ski after work today. Left the house at about 625 and was on the lift at 650. Snow was hard and fast, and even though conditions weren't really bad at all, I didn't really have a great night. Started with a Nightweaver run, and was just working way too hard. Really felt it in the legs right away, and never found my groove, every run was a leg burner. After NM/DW headed back up and decided to hit Sidewinder. It was probably run of the night, found some decent conditions, especially on the sides. Next two runs were Lazy followed by Switchback, and they were both in pretty good shape too. After the Sidewinder run decided to avoid the Falls. The slope was in good shape, but the base and runout were like and ice rink. I nearly ate shit, lol. Was completely out of control when I tried to turn. So I skied the full Mile and down trough the park after Lazy. Decided to do a Paradise run to see what it was like, and it was just like everything else, hard with patches of ice, some areas of scraped together sugar on top. Back up the lift and got off at 735, there was a patroller forcing everyone to the right, apparently they swept and closed Paradise, Nightweaver, Razors, Challenge and Sidewinder, so I decided to ski over to run lower Widowmaker to Burma. More of the same conditions, and more of the same leg burning goodness. Got down to the double double area and there was another patroller warning everyone that if they continued they needed to be parked at the bottom because the lift was closed. Sure enough, got to the bottom at 745 to find them turning people away. Six runs for a quick session. One this is abundantly clear; I need to get a pair of boots that fit before I hurt myself, lol. Hoping to make at least one more after work session this week, but not sure what night(s). Thinking about hitting Buckman's tomorrow night to try on some boots.
  11. I’ll take snow, but I’ll be happy with anything that’s not rain. Don’t want anything to quickly diminish the base and prompt any early closing ideas.
  12. Awesome conditions. Runs of the day for me were Razors and Switchback. Conditions were great everywhere tho, except Falls which was like my least favorite NES game, Marble Madness. Full-width, deep base on pretty much every trail on St Patrick's Day?!?
  13. Love to see the guns going in mid-March
  14. It really is. One of the videos I saw, you can see that when the first chair gets stuck there’s still someone on it. Then all the other chairs start piling up. would this be even worse on a detachable? The chairs would detach, right, and then just start smashing together at the bottom, wouldn’t they? or would they not detach, because the “reattach” unit doesn’t work in reverse? I’m having trouble picturing it . . .
  15. Yes. I’m sure missing the braggadocios posts about how little he pays for a day on the slopes, the reports describing the intricacies of splitting a single entree five ways, and the promised future music videos ham-fistedly cobbled together in MS Paint will leave me a hollow shell of my former self, but somehow I’ll have to scratch out a meager, meaningless existence anyway. I’d take solace in my children, but I guess I’m ruining them.
  16. I don’t give a shit what he thinks. He’s unredeemable, he’s on ignore. He’s the only person on PASR not welcome to eat the food from my grill. Well, unless he wants to contribute $10 per plate and “get some skin in the game.” And the Beagles is a dumb band name. That music video sucked, too. Music was alright tho.
  17. No one started a debate on financial practices in parenting. You brought it up as a straw man to obfuscate the fact that you’re a cheap shit.
  18. Blah, blah, blah, whatever. You’re a cheap SOB. It’s probably your last chance to take to them Elk probably EVER, cause we all know there’s no way in hell you’ll ever pay for three tickets to ski there. But you’ll take them to Blue instead when you tell them they won’t have to subsidize your ticket out of their allowance if you go there. Like 10 year olds need to understand spending their money vs a gift from dad. They’re fucking kids. It’s not a gift from you anyway, it’s a gift from the state of Pennsylvania Ski association or whatever. I’m sure the best gift you’ve ever given them is two christmases.
  19. Booo! Makes sense for them, tho
  20. Pay to ski Elk so your fucking kids get to experience it you cheap fuck. If you charge your kids to ski Elk, you’re banned from Sausage Sundays forever.
