don't they use this one to power the starship Enterprise?

Watch the video if you want to see video or a guy talking more, but here are the 7 (8?) points:

Very thorough article once again Wes, thanks. One thing I would add with the ultra-light variety is be very wary of the single-wall style. I have a Eureka Zeus 2 right now, but am looking to upgrade. It's only about 3 pounds, but the single wall construction (no rain-fly) means an extreme amount of condensation…

I look forward to it, Chris. There's lots of articles extolling the virtues of trekking poles and here's one of my favorites: http://gossamergear.com/wp/tips/trekki…

And my next article will be, "Why Trekking Poles are Invaluable in the Backcountry."

My scallion is one of the most gangster knives ever. It's more comfortable than any spyderco, has no wiggle, it's very reliable and durable, uses 420HC steel (which outperforms 440 any day of the week), and has a good safety lock to prevent accidental opening. I'm glad someone mentioned a good kershaw scallion, best…

I shaved my beard in Feb for a job interview in full mountain man status, my face was so cold after. It really does add considerable warmth and wind breakage in the cold.

I've got the Osprey Atmos 50. It was my first nice and "light" pack, and it served me well, but the HMG packs are on a whole 'nother level.

Torture. Bear cans are torture.

What the hell is a "bear can"? Is it fuzzy, or does it have no hair?

Though I use it less often, one thing I did to make my hydration bladder more convenient to refill was to cut the tube at about the halfway point, and splice in a Camelback quick disconnect adapter (other brands will work, too). Then, with the mouthpiece end disconnected, I can attach a tube running from my gravity…

But then, you're not sailing around the world by yourself, being worshipped as Christ, are you?

And blast is a word that can describe applying an explosive force to something, or having a delightful time. Those occasions sometimes overlap (yay fireworks! Cool demolition! ) but don't have to (boo hand grenade! ). That means they're not equivalent. Using the same word in different contexts does not an equivalence…

Saying mass and weight are the same is like saying velocity and speed are the same. In both cases they are related by a common property, but they are not equivalent. They are not "the same".

Google Voice sucks. The stuff it does is awesome, but everything around that part sucks. It hasn't been meaningfully updated in forever. It's interface sucks. It's apps suck. It's dead in the water.

That's what happens when people come to work without having breakfast. Food posts.

I'm an atheist. For me it's not the politics, it's the discrimination against me. And I can empathize with the discrimination against gays. The Scouts may teach some good things, but they also teach and reinforce bigotry and make many feel unwelcome.

Empty that thing out and it'd be full up to the gunwales with coyotes in a year. And then they'd burst out, a river of fiends thirsting for flesh.

But Charlie Sheen is still Tiger Blood compatible, right?
