Cool man, it'll still be a bit for me though...priorities. It was nice you bringing along one of your priorities to the race.

Mitch..I gotta say it again.....GREAT JOB MAN!!!!

No they couldn't do it on the 16th because they couldn't find someone to teach the course, they suggested the 4th when they have some others coming and a teacher already set up they said it should be no problem on the 4th but the 16th was NOT possible.

right after work? for how long? I'm going to a concert later in the evening, but I can probably make it for a while right after work. Where did you want to go again? Is anyone else going with you?

Well, I get off work at 5pm, so I could head straight there (more convenient for me anyways). Rock oasis is at the corner of front and bathurst but I'm willing to go to any gym. One or more of my friends may come, but we organized this on friday night when we were pretty drunk, right before I threw my friend into an end table full of wine glasses, breaking all the glasses and the table. I would have fixed the end table but the corner store didn't sell carpenter's glue! For shame! Anyways, I'll double check with them tonight and try to make it a round number. Chances are they will be 2 girls. So including you that would make 3 girls total. Even if they can't come I'd still be up for an hour or two of climbing. How does 5:15-5:30 sound for a start time?

Oh yeah, I'm just about to leave work and don't have an internet connection at home yet so I won't be on BF until tomorrow morning. I'll bring my gear anyways.

I can pick up a default network on my front lawn but its with my housemate's powerbook so unless I want to look at gay porn I'm out of luck. My PC has no wireless device...

Hey Shiznaz, what was the deal with the powergrips? Were they good? I'm tired of these looks for campus'ing.
